Details

This function makes accessible all algorithm that are implemented in this package. All of the algorithm use this function as interface to find the optimal solution, so users do not need to call other functions. In order to obtain good results, users need to adjust some parameters such as the objective function, optimum type, number variable or dimension, number populations, the maximal number of iterations, lower bound, upper bound, or other algorithm-dependent parameters which are collected in the control parameter.

Value

List that contain list of variable, optimum value and execution time.
