About
-----
Nature-inspired algorithms are a very popular tool for solving
optimization problems. Numerous variants of `nature-inspired algorithms
have been developed <https://arxiv.org/abs/1307.4186>`__ since the
beginning of their era. To prove their versatility, those were tested in
various domains on various applications, especially when they are
hybridized, modified or adapted. However, implementation of
nature-inspired algorithms is sometimes a difficult, complex and tedious
task. In order to break this wall, NiaPy is intended for simple and
quick use, without spending time for implementing algorithms from
scratch.

Mission
-------
| Our mission is to build a collection of nature-inspired algorithms and
create a simple interface for managing the optimization process.
| NiaPy will offer:
- numerous benchmark functions implementations,
- use of various nature-inspired algorithms without struggle and effort
with a simple interface,
- easy comparison between nature-inspired algorithms and
- export of results in various formats (LaTeX, JSON, Excel).
Overview
========
Python micro framework for building nature-inspired algorithms.
The micro framework features following algorithms:
- basic:
- Artificial bee colony algorithm (`see
example <examples/run_abc.py>`__)
- Bat algorithm (`see example <examples/run_ba.py>`__)
- Cuckoo Search algorithm (`see example <examples/run_cs.py>`__)
- Differential evolution algorithm (`see
example <examples/run_de.py>`__)
- Firefly algorithm (`see example <examples/run_fa.py>`__)
- Flower pollination algorithm (`see example <examples/run_fpa.py>`__)
- Genetic algorithm (`see example <examples/run_ga.py>`__)
- Grey wolf optimizer (`see example <examples/run_gwo.py>`__)
- Particle swarm optimization (`see example <examples/run_pso.py>`__)
- modified:
- Hybrid bat algorithm (`see example <examples/run_hba.py>`__)
- Self-adaptive differential evolution algorithm (`see
example <examples/run_jde.py>`__)
The following benchmark functions are included in NiaPy:
- Ackley
- Alpine
- Alpine1
- Alpine2
- Chung Reynolds
- Csendes
- Griewank
- Happy cat
- Pintér
- Qing
- Quintic
- Rastrigin
- Ridge
- Rosenbrock
- Salomon
- Schumer Steiglitz
- Schwefel
- Schwefel 2.21
- Schwefel 2.22
- Sphere
- Step
- Step2
- Step3
- Stepint
- Styblinski-Tang
- Sum Squares
- Whitley
Setup
=====
Requirements
------------
- Python 3.6+ (backward compatibility with 2.7.14)
