Human Learning Optimization(HLO) algorithm

A MATLAB code for Human Learning Optimization(HLO) algorithm

%% Description
% 1.A MATLAB code for Human Learning Optimization(HLO) algorithm [1] is developed for a simple test problems in this file.
% 2.Main program of HLO which is "SHLO.m",and HLO code is tested and verified for a simple problem.
% 3.Anybody can use this code for their application, by developing their own fitness function for the unique problems.
% 4.For any new test problem (application), the following modifications are sufficient.They are listed down.
% 5.For complicated problems, it is better to introudce the re-learning operator given in [2] to obtain better results.
% 6.There is an adaptive simplified HLO in [3],which change the mode of 'pr'and 'pi'.
