Solutions to some problems are not as cut and dry as correct or incorrect, but are rated in terms of quality. Such problems are known as optimization problems because the goal is to find the candidate solution with the best, that is, optimal quality.
Optimization
What is a fitness function?
SwarmOps works for real-valued and single-objective optimization problems, that is, optimization problems that map candidate solutions from -dimensional real-valued spaces to one-dimensional real-valued spaces. Mathematically speaking, we consider optimization problems to be functions of the following form:
In SwarmOps, it is assumed that is a minimization problem, meaning that we are searching for the candidate solution with the smallest...
