LWMEO: An efficient equilibrium optimizer for complex functions and engineering design problems
作者：
Highlights：
• An efficient equilibrium optimizer LWMEO with three improved strategies is proposed.
• The execution efficiency of LWMEO is demonstrated by time complexity analysis.
• The Markov chain process is used to prove the convergence of LWMEO.
• Use CEC2014 and other test functions to evaluate LWMEO’s optimization performance.
• LWMEO’s application ability is verified by solving 8 engineering design problems.
