Bat Algorithm Demo
In this demonstration, Standard Bat Algorithm is validated using eggcrate function. I have included a graphical illustration of the bats movements throughout the iterations. This way the user can get a clearer idea on how the algorithm works, as well as calibrating the algorithm coefficients to fit the search space of any optimization problem.
