Biogeography-Based Optimization (BBO) is an evolutionary algorithm and metaheuristic, which is inspired by the biogeographic concepts: speciation (the evolution of new species), the migration
Evolution Strategy (ES) is the first and oldest evolutionary algorithm, and it is based on the adaptation and evolution. Specially, the main concept used
Differential Evolution (DE) is an evolutionary algorithm, which uses the difference of solution vectors to create new candidate solutions. The key points, in the
Simulated Annealing (SA) is a metaheuristic, inspired by annealing process. SA starts with an initial solution at higher temperature, where the changes are accepted
Like Apriori algorithm, FP-Growth is an association rule mining approach. The term FP in the name of this approach, is abbreviation of Frequent Pattern.
One of the classic approaches to deal with multi-objective optimization problems, is decomposition, which means that a multi-objective is decomposed to several (theoretically infinite)

Pareto Envelope-based Selection Algorithm II (PESA-II) is a multi-objective evolutionary optimization algorithm, which uses the mechanism of genetic algorithm together with selection based on
Teaching-Learning-based Optimization (TLBO) is a metaheuristic, inspired by process of Teaching and Learning, via a simplified mathematical model of knowledge improvements gained by students
Shuffled Complex Evolution (SCE-UA) is a metaheuristic for global optimization, proposed by Duan, Gupta and Sorooshian, in 1992. Because SCE is the abbreviated name
Neural Gas network is a competitive Artificial Neural Network (ANN), very similar to Self-Organizing Map (SOM), which is proposed by Martinetz and Schulten, 1991.
Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm 2 (SPEA2) is an extended version of SPEA multi-objective evolutionary optimization algorithm. This algorithm utilized a mechanism like k-Nearest Neighbor
Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm (SFLA) is a metaheuristic, or more accurately it is a Memetic Algorithm, which is inspired by frog leaping. SFLA is
