A study on an extended Prey-Predator algorithm

Metaheuristic algorithms are approximate solution methods for optimisation problems which try to improve the quality of solution at hand iteratively in a random way. In recent years, various studies have been conducted in forming new metaheuristic algorithms and modifying or improving existing al...
