Abstract

The hunting behavior of humpback whales served as the basis for developing a previously invented swarm-based optimization algorithm known as the whale optimization algorithm (WOA). To achieve more precise solutions with higher reliability and faster convergence, this research endeavors to improve upon the initial WOA formulation. The new technique, called the advanced whale optimization algorithm (AWOA), is put to the test in engineering optimization problems. The AWOA, along with other metaheuristic techniques presented in previous literature, was tested in four optimization problems. Based on the numerical results, it was concluded that the AWOA was more efficient compared to the WOA.
