This study introduces the weed optimization algorithm (WOA) to optimal reservoir operation.
The WOA is a metaheuristic optimization method inspired by weeds' life cycle. The …

In the current study, a mixed-integer nonlinear programming model is presented for the
development of an economic production quantity (EPQ) model that encompasses …

In this letter, the Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO) method is applied to design and optimize
a printed Yagi antenna. The optimization goals are set to reach an antenna with a VSWR …

This paper presents a proposal for multiobjective Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO) based
on nondominated sorting of the solutions. IWO is an ecologically inspired stochastic …

This paper presents a hybrid optimization algorithm which originates from Invasive Weed
Optimization (IWO) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). Based on the novel and distinct …

This paper presents a novel discrete population based stochastic optimization algorithm
inspired from weed colonization. Its performance in a discrete benchmark, time-cost trade-off …

The nonlinear Muskingum model is a hydrologic flood-routing method useful when the
storage flow relation departs from the classic linear assumption. This paper extends versions …

This paper introduces an expanded version of the Invasive Weed Optimization algorithm
(exIWO) distinguished by the hybrid strategy of the search space exploration proposed by …

Invasive weed optimization, which is inspired from the invasive habits of growth of weeds in
nature, is a population-based intelligence algorithm. In this paper, we present invasive weed …

The new reconfigurable antenna array is demonstrated for multiple input multiple output
(MIMO) communication systems. The antenna system consists of an array of two printed …
