A collection of the state-of-the-art MEta-heuristics ALgorithms in PYthon (mealpy)
"Knowledge is power, sharing it is the premise of progress in life. It seems like a burden to someone, but it is the only way to achieve immortality." --- Thieu Nguyen
Introduction
-
MEALPY is a python module for the most of cutting-edge population meta-heuristic algorithms and is distributed under MIT license.
-
The goals of this framework are:
- Sharing knowledge of meta-heuristic fields to everyone without a fee
- Helping other researchers in all field access to optimization algorithms as quickly as possible
- Implement the classical as well as the state-of-the-art meta-heuristics (The whole history of meta-heuristics)
Installation
Dependencies
- Python (>= 3.6)
- Numpy (>= 1.15.1)
- Scikit-learn (>= 0.22.1)
- Matplotlib (>=3.1.3)
- Opfunu (>= 0.4.3)
User installation
Install the current PyPI release:
pip install mealpy
pip install --upgrade mealpy
Or install the development version from GitHub:
pip install git+https://github.com/thieunguyen5991/mealpy
Example
* Simple example:
from opfunu.type_based.uni_modal import Functions
from mealpy.evolutionary_based.GA import BaseGA
t1 = Functions()
## Setting parameters
objective_func = t1._sum_squres__
problem_size = 30
domain_range = [-15, 15]
log = True
epoch = 100
pop_size = 50
pc = 0.95
pm = 0.025
md = BaseGA(objective_func, problem_size, domain_range, log, epoch, pop_size, pc, pm)
best_position, best_fit, list_loss = md._train__()
print(best_fit)
* Or run the simple:
python examples/simple_run.py
* The more complicated tests in the folder: examples
The documentation includes more detailed installation instructions.

Group:
- Evolu: Evolutionary-based
- Swarm: Swarm-based
- Physic: Physics-based
- Human: Human-based
- Bio: Biology-based
- System: System-based (eco-system, immune-system, network-system, ...)
- Math: Math-based
- Music: Music-based
- Proba: Probabilistic based algorithm
-
Levy: Using levy-flight technique or not
-
Version:
- original: Taken exactly from the paper
- changed: I changed the flow or equation to make algorithm works
-
Type:
- weak: working fine with uni-modal and some multi-modal functions
- strong: working good with uni-modal, multi-modal, some hybrid and some composite functions
- best: working well with almost all kind of functions
- BEST: the best among all algorithms
-
Some algorithm with original version and no levy techniques still belong to the best type such as:
- Whale Optimization Algorithm
- Bird Swarm Algorithm
- Swarm Robotics Search And Rescue
- Manta Ray Foraging Optimization
- Henry Gas Solubility Optimization
- Atom Search Optimization
- Equilibrium Optimizer
- Artificial Ecosystem-based Optimization
-
Paras: The number of parameters in the algorithm (Not counting the fixed parameters in the original paper)
- Almost algorithms have 2 paras (epoch, population_size) and plus some paras depend on each algorithm.
- Some algorithms belong to "best" type and have only 2 paras meaning that algorithm is outstanding
-
Diffic - Difficulty Level: Objective observation from author.
- Depend on the number of parameters, number of equations, the original ideas, time spend for coding, source lines of code (SLOC)
- Easy: A few paras, few equations, SLOC very short
- Medium: more equations than Easy level, SLOC longer than Easy level
- Hard: Lots of equations, SLOC longer than Medium level, the paper hard to read.
- Hard* - Very hard: Lots of equations, SLOC too long, the paper is very hard to read.
** For newbie, I recommend to read the paper of algorithms belong to "best or strong" type, "easy or medium" difficulty level.
