"Knowledge is power, sharing it is the premise of progress in life.
It seems like a burden to someone, but it is the only way to achieve immortality.

MEALPY is a Python library that contains the largest number of the cutting-edge population-based meta-heuristic algorithms — a field that provides a fast and efficient way to find the (approximation) global optimal point of mathematical optimization problems.

Population-based meta-heuristic algorithms (PMAs) are the most popular algorithms in the field of optimization. There are several types of PMAs, including:

• Evolutionary inspired computing

• Swarm inspired computing

• Physics inspired computing

• Human inspired computing

• Biology inspired computing

• Mathematical inspired computing

• And others such as: Music inspired, System inspired computing,…

Features

• Our library provides all state-of-the-art population meta-heuristic algorithms for optimization problems.

• We have implemented all algorithms using Numpy to increase the speed of the algorithms.

• Additionally, we have designed a visualization module to help users understand and explore the results discovered by the model after learning.
