New Cuckoo search algorithm code

New Cuckoo search algorithm for optimization problem

In this paper, we intend to formulate a new Cuckoo
Search (NCS) for solving optimization problems. This algorithm is based
on the obligate brood parasitic behavior of some cuckoo species in combination
with the L´evy flight behavior of some birds and fruit flies, at
the same time, combine particle swarm optimization (PSO), evolutionary
computation technique. It is tested with a set of benchmark continuous
functions and compared their optimization results, and we validate the
proposed NCS against test functions with big size and then compare
its performance with those of PSO and original Cuckoo search. Finally,
we discuss the implication of the results and suggestion for further
research.
