Sparrow Search Algorithm

The Sparrow Search Algorithm (SSA) is a nature-inspired metaheuristic optimization algorithm used to find optimal solutions in complex search spaces. Current research focuses on applying SSA to improve the performance of various machine learning models and algorithms, such as random forests and kernel extreme learning machines, across diverse applications including hyperspectral image classification, robotics, and feature selection for tasks like COVID-19 data analysis. These applications demonstrate SSA's effectiveness in enhancing accuracy and efficiency, particularly in high-dimensional or computationally intensive problems, highlighting its growing importance in optimization and machine learning.
