Flower Pollination Algorithms

Abstract

The flower pollination algorithm (FPA) was developed by Xin-She Yang in 2012, inspired by the flower pollination process of flowering plants. FPA has been extended to multi-objective optimization with promising results. This chapter provides an introduction to the flower pollination algorithm and its basic implementation.
