Bat-inspired algorithm is a metaheuristic optimization algorithm developed by Xin-She Yang in 2010.[1] This bat algorithm is based on the echolocation behaviour of microbats with varying pulse rates of emission and loudness.[2][3]

Algorithm Description

The idealization of the echolocation of microbats can be summarized as follows: Each virtual bat flies randomly with a velocity at position (solution) with a varying frequency or wavelength and loudness . As it searches and finds its prey, it changes frequency, loudness and pulse emission rate . Search is intensified by a local random walk. Selection of the best continues until certain stop criteria are met. This essentially uses a frequency-tuning technique to control the dynamic behaviour of a swarm of bats, and the balance between exploration and exploitation can be controlled by tuning algorithm-dependent parameters in bat algorithm.

A detailed introduction of metaheuristic algorithms including the bat algorithm is given by Yang [4] where a demo program in Matlab/Octave is available, while a comprehensive review is carried out by Parpinelli and Lopes.[5] A further improvement is the development of an evolving bat algorithm (EBA) with better efficiency.[6]

A Matlab demo is available at the Matlab exchange[7]

Multi-objective Bat Algorithm (MOBA)

Using a simple weighted sum with random weights, a very effective but yet simple multiobjective bat algorithm (MOBA) has been developed to solve multiobjective engineering design tasks.[8] Another multiobjective bat algorithm by combining bat algorithm with NSGA-II produces very competitive results with good efficiency.[9]

Applications

Bat algorithm has been used for engineering design,[10] classifications.[11] A fuzzy bat clustering method has been developed to solve ergonomic workplace problems[12] An interesting approach using fuzzy systems and bat algorithm has shown a reliable match between prediction and actual data for exergy modelling.[13]

A detailed comparison of bat algorithm (BA) with genetic algorithm (GA), PSO and other methods for training feed forward neural networks concluded clearly that BA has advantages over other algorithms.[14]
