Embedding a competitive ranking method in the artificial fish swarm algorithm for global optimization

Nonlinear programming problems are known to be difficult to solve, especially those that involve a multimodal objective function and/or non-convex and at the same time disjointed solution space. Heuristic methods that do not require derivative calculations have been used to solve this type of constr...
