Mycelial Search: A New Graph-Structured Metaheuristic for Optimization

Researchers have introduced Mycelial Search (Myco), a novel graph-structured metaheuristic designed for continuous optimization problems. This method balances information sharing and diverse search directions through active tips, community-weighted flow, adaptive cord plasticity, and anchor-based injection. Myco forms an evolving spatial graph where a Louvain partition distinguishes information exchange within and between communities. Evaluations on the CEC 2022 benchmark suite showed Myco achieving competitive results against eleven established optimizers across various dimensions. AI

    Mycelial Search: A Graph-Structured Metaheuristic for Continuous Optimisation

    Continuous optimisation methods need to balance sharing information and maintaining alternative search directions. In this paper, we introduce Mycelial Search (Myco), a graph-structured metaheuristic designed around active tips, community-weighted flow, adaptive cord plasticity, …
