Socio-cognitive optimization of time-delay control problems using evolutionary metaheuristics

Abstract

Metaheuristics are universal optimization algorithms which should be used for solving difficult problems, unsolvable by classic approaches. In this paper we aim at constructing novel socio-cognitive metaheuristic based on castes, and apply several versions of this algorithm to optimization of time-delay system model. Besides giving the background and the details of the proposed algorithms we apply them to optimization of selected variants of the problem and discuss the results. © 2022 IEEE.978-1-5090-6008-5/17/$31.00; Grantová Agentura České Republiky, GA ČR: GF21-45465L; Narodowe Centrum Nauki, NCN: /35/O/ST6/00570, 2020/39/I/ST7/02285; Ministerstwo Edukacji i Nauki, MNiS
