Abstract
A large number of traditional optimization tools are available in the literature, as each of these techniques is suitable to solve a particular problem. Realizing this fact, non-traditional optimization tools have been proposed, which are supposed to be robust enough to solve a variety of problems. Moreover, these tools should be able to reach the optimal solutions quickly and as accurately as possible. The family of non-traditional optimization tools has become bigger, nowadays, which contradicts the very purpose of developing non-traditional optimization tool. In this write-up, the reasons behind this fact have been discussed in detail, and the need for an intelligent optimization tool has been felt, which is supposed to be problem-independent.
