Describing a newoptimization algorithm, the “Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization (TLBO),” in aclear and lucid style, this book maximizes reader insights into how the TLBOalgorithm can be used to solve continuous and discrete optimization problemsinvolving single or multiple objectives.As the algorithm operateson the principle of teaching and learning, where teachers influence the qualityof learners’ results, the elitist version of TLBOalgorithm (ETLBO) is described along with applications of the TLBO algorithm inthe fields of electrical engineering, mechanical design, thermal engineering,manufacturing engineering, civil engineering, structural engineering, computerengineering, electronics engineering, physics and biotechnology.The book offers a valuableresource for scientists, engineers and practitioners involved in thedevelopment and usage of advanced optimization algorithms.
