Abstract | Many problems in data mining and machine learning are related to optimization, and optimization techniques are often used to solve such problems. Traditional techniques such as gradient-based methods can be efficient, but they are local optimizers. For global optimization, alternative approaches tend to be nature-inspired metaheuristic algorithms. We introduce some of the nature-inspired optimization algorithms with the emphasis on their main characteristics. We also highlight the role of algorithmic components in such algorithms, and then we conclude with a brief discussion about some open problems. |
