Abstract

This article describes the Bees Algorithm in standard formulation and presents two applications to real-world continuous optimisation engineering problems. In the first case, the Bees Algorithm is employed to train three artificial neural networks (ANNs) to model the inverse kinematics of the joints of a three-link manipulator. In the second case, the Bees Algorithm is used to optimise the parameters of a linear model used to approximate the torque output for an electro-hydraulic load system. In both cases, the Bees Algorithm outperformed the state-of-the-art in the literature, proving to be an effective optimisation technique for engineering systems.
