A Survey of Harmony Search Algorithm
Osama Abdel‐Raouf, Marwa Metwally · International Journal of Computer Applications · 2013
Harmony Search (HS) is a meta-heuristic algorithm which bases its operation on the musical improvisation process.Recently, HS has become a popular algorithm in the evolutionary computation fielddue to its superiority to many other algorithms.As a consequence, in this paper, HS algorithm, its improvements and applications in many fields, such as operations research and computer science, are discussed and analyzed.The survey investigates the difference between HS algorithms as well as its applications.To add to this, several future improvements are suggested.
