Metaheuristics are general-purpose problem-solving Artificial Intelligence techniques that can be used to solve any sort of optimization problems subject to proper configuration. Handbook of Whale Optimization Algorithm: Variants, Hybrids, Improvements, and Applications provides the most in-depth look at an emerging meta-heuristic that has been widely used in both science and industry.

Whale Optimization Algorithm has been cited more than 5000 times in Google Scholar. Solving optimization problems using this algorithm requires addressing a number of challenges including multiple objectives, constraints, binary decision variables, large-scale search space, dynamic objective function, and noisy parameters, just to name a few. This handbook provides readers with in-depth analysis.

of this algorithm and the existing methods in the literature to cope with such challenges. The authors and editors also propose several improvements, variants, and hybrids of this algorithm. Several applications are also covered to demonstrate the applicability of methods in this book.
