Top1. Introduction
IT has amazingly exaggerated the healthcare industry. No doubt, medical informatics is changing a scenario of medical industry. With the advancements, one is able to diagnose and cure the problems effectively. The latest vaccinations and other treatment methodology have exterminated lots of fatal diseases. However, there are still number of chronic diseases (Cardiovascular, Respiratory, Malignant, Digestive, Diarrheal, Depression, Malaria, Cancer, Diabetes etc.) that don’t appear to firmly vanish. The critical human disorders can be effectively handled if they are diagnosed properly.
NIC (Nature Inspired Computing) are inspired by the different aspects, components and species of nature viz. buildings, plants, insects, flowers, water fall, animal etc. Some of the important NIC techniques that have taken ideas from Physics, Biology, Genetics, and Chemistry are (Siddique & Adeli, 2015):
- •
Genetic Algorithms (GA)
- •
Swarm Intelligence (SI)
- •
Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)
- •
Ant Colony Optimization (ACO)
- •
Artificial Bee Colony (ABC)
- •
Bat Algorithm (BA)
- •
Cuckoo algorithm (CA)
- •
Honey Bee Algorithm (HBA)
- •
Water Wave Algorithm (WWA)
- •
Ray Optimization (RO)
- •
Fish Swarm Algorithm (FSA) etc.
