Cohort Intelligence

Cohort Intelligence (CI) is a socio-inspired optimization algorithm showing promise in solving complex, constrained real-world problems across diverse fields. Current research focuses on improving CI's performance through enhanced constraint handling techniques, often hybridizing it with other algorithms like Ant Colony Optimization, and applying it to areas such as manufacturing process optimization and electronic health record analysis. The algorithm's effectiveness in handling limited datasets and its adaptability to various problem domains highlight its significance for both theoretical advancements in optimization and practical applications in diverse industries.
