Key research themes

1. How can dingo-inspired metaheuristic algorithms be designed and applied to solve complex engineering optimization problems?

This theme focuses on developing new optimization algorithms based on the social and hunting behavior of dingoes (Canis familiaris dingo). Research investigates how the collaborative and prey hunting characteristics — including exploration, encircling, and exploitation phases — can be modeled mathematically to guide the search for optimal solutions in complex engineering design tasks. The goal is to produce flexible, efficient, and competitive algorithms that outperform existing metaheuristics on benchmark and real-world problems.

2. What adaptations and enhancements to the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) improve its performance for diverse optimization tasks?

Research under this theme investigates modifications and hybridizations of the Whale Optimization Algorithm, which emulates humpback whale bubble-net hunting. Studies aim to improve exploration-exploitation balance, convergence speed, and adaptability to binary and constrained problems. Approaches include integrating adaptive randomization, using π-number based coefficients, applying transfer functions for discrete variables, and combining WOA with other metaheuristics and local search methods. These works contribute to extending WOA’s applicability and competitiveness across mathematical benchmarks and engineering problems.

3. How do bio-inspired social animal behavior models (e.g., grey wolves, zebras, raccoons, elephants) inform and improve metaheuristic optimization algorithms?

This theme explores the utilization of social behaviors of various animals to develop metaheuristic algorithms that balance intensification and diversification in search processes. Research spans modeling social hierarchy, hunting tactics, and group foraging dynamics to design operators for optimization tasks. Emphasis is placed on addressing challenges such as premature convergence, local optima avoidance, parameter tuning, and applicability to multimodal or binary problems. These algorithms often aim to improve robustness, convergence speed, and solution quality on benchmark functions and practical engineering problems.
