Abstract

The main problem with biologically inspired algorithms (like evolutionary algorithms or particle swarm optimization) when applied to dynamic optimization is to force their readiness for continuous search for new optima occurring in changing locations. Immune-based algorithm, being an instance of an algorithm that adapt by innovation seem to be a perfect candidate for continuous exploration of a search space. In this paper we describe various implementations of the immune principles and we compare these instantiations on complex environments.
