Method evidence record

African Vultures Optimization Algorithm

The African Vultures Optimization Algorithm (AVOA) is a metaheuristic algorithm introduced by Moghdani and Salimifard in 2020, inspired by the search and scavenging behavior of African vultures. Vultures employ sophisticated collaborative strategies to locate carrion across vast distances, using thermal air currents and group dynamics to navigate efficiently. AVOA translates these collective hunting behaviors into an effective optimization framework.
