Farmland fertility: A new metaheuristic algorithm for solving continuous optimization problems
Abstract
Abstract Nowadays, the use of metaheuristic algorithms has dramatically increased in order to achieve the optimal solution in solving continuous optimization problems. In this paper, a new metaheuristic algorithm that is inspired by farmland fertility in nature is presented; this algorithm divides into several parts of the farmland, and to optimize solutions of each section with optimal efficiency of two types in internal and external memory. In order to evaluate the farmland fertility, we simulated it on 20 main function of mathematical optimization that is important to evaluate this type of algorithms and the results displayed. This farmland fertility has been compared with other metaheuristic algorithms such as; artificial bee colony (ABC), firefly algorithm (FA), harmony search (HS), particle swarm optimization (PSO), differential evolution (DE), bat algorithm (BA), and improved PSO and the results are displayed clearly. Simulations show that the farmland fertility often acts better than other metaheuristic algorithms. The farmland fertility in problems with smaller dimensions problems has been able to act as a strong metaheuristic algorithm and it has optimized problems nicely. Furthermore, the farmland fertility in problems with larger dimensions has been able to perform better than other algorithms. The effectiveness of other algorithms decreases significantly with number of dimensions and the farmland fertility obtains better results than other algorithms.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
