Abstract:
An implementation of Central Force Optimization (CFO) utilizing variable initial probes and decision space adaptation is presented. The algorithm is tested against a suite of benchmark functions and CFO’s results compared to those of other algorithms. CFO performs well against the benchmarks, and also in scalability tests in 300-dimensions.
