Island-based harmony search for optimization problems

作者：

Highlights：

• Island model are embedded within framework of HS algorithm to build iHS.

• Island number (In), migration frequency (Fm), migration rate (Rm) are iHS parameters.

• Higher values of In and Fm lead to better results but Rm value needs to be small.

• Results outperform others due to manipulating diversity through island concepts.
