'Extremotaxis': Computing with a bacterial-inspired algorithm
We present a general-purpose optimization algorithm inspired by “run-and-tumble”, the biased random walk chemotactic swimming strategy used by the bacterium Escherichia coli to locate regions of high nutrient concentration The method uses particles (corresponding to bacteria) that swim through the v...
