In recent years, recognizing amazing resources in nature can be a way to
formulate ideas for optimization problems. First, the ideas are selected in nature, and
then the hidden purposeful behavior of these ideas is discovered and expressed as a
systematic algorithm. Choosing and observing the order in animals and nature is an art,
and researching them is a practical way of analyzing them. The most important part is
that these behaviors must be selected in order and then formulated mathematically.
This chapter will discuss some techniques for converting ideas into algorithms and a
specific framework. Some of the important principles in converting behaviors in
nature into mathematical equations are outlined in this chapter If one can find the best
and easiest way to transform an idea into a mathematical equation in the form of an
algorithm, then one can claim that an efficient algorithm is presented that can solve a
complex problem. If some of the principles outlined in this chapter are followed, a
good algorithm can be derived from a natural idea. This chapter introduces examples of
nature-inspired algorithms presented by authors in recent years. These algorithms all
use the source of nature, and the nature and behavior of some animals are the main
basis of these algorithms. These algorithms show the orderly behavior of some natural
animals and also show how this targeted order can be transformed into an algorithm.
Understanding these algorithms can help the reader understand how to transform the
idea of nature into meaningful equations. We present some examples of these
algorithms in this chapter to familiarize the reader with the order in some natural
animals. Also, in this chapter, we can understand how to transform this natural order
into meaningful equations. These meaningful equations are introduced in the form of
an optimization algorithm.
