Honey Badger Algorithm

The Honey Badger Algorithm (HBA) is a nature-inspired metaheuristic optimization algorithm presented by Hashim et al. in 2023, modeled on the hunting behavior and intelligent strategies of honey badgers (Mellivora capensis). Honey badgers are known for their remarkable problem-solving abilities, fearlessness, and persistent pursuit of prey and food sources despite significant obstacles. HBA captures these behavioral traits to create an effective optimization framework.
