Literature Paper on Animal Migration Optimization

This is literature review paper on a new swarm intelligent algorithm, called as Animal Migration Optimization (AMO). This paper is inspired by the animal’s migration nature that can be found in all major animal groups, like mammals, fish, reptiles, amphibians, insects, birds, and crustaceans. In this algorithm, there are mainly two processes. In the first process, animals move from the current position to the new position. During this movement, each individual should obey three main rules. In the latter process, some animals leave the group and some join the group during the migration. In previous research, different techniques are used to find the optimal solution. In this paper we will discuss about few algorithms and their simulated results after apply on the benchmark functions. Benchmark functions are employed to find performance of our approach. This technique has been compared with different popular search methods.
