Abstract

This study employs the Firefly Algorithm (FA) to determine the optimal parameter settings needed in the osmotic dehydration process of fruits and vegetables. Two case studies are considered. For both cases, the functional form of the osmotic dehydration model is established using response surface techniques with the resulting optimization formulations being non-linear goal programming models. For optimization purposes, a computationally efficient, FA-driven method is employed and the resulting solutions are shown to be superior to those from previous approaches for the osmotic process parameters. The final component of this study provides a computational experimentation performed on the FA to illustrate the relative sensitivity of this nature-inspired metaheuristic approach over a range of the two key parameters that most influence its running time.
