Sunflower optimization algorithm (SFO): population-based nature inspired algorithm mimicking the sunflowers movement towards the sun

1. Introduction The SFO is a new meta-heuristic algorithm which is stimulated by the moving of sunflowers towards the sunlight by considering the pollination between adjacent sunflowers. Also, the SFO is stimulated by the inverse square law radiation and it is a technique is a population-based iterative heuristic global [1] optimization algorithm for multi-modal problems. […]
