Abstract

We describe in this chapter a Bat Algorithm and Genetic Algorithm (GA) conducting a performance comparison of the two algorithms Benchmark testing them in mathematical functions, parameters adjustment is done manually for both algorithms in 6 math functions, including some references on work done with the bat and area algorithm optimization with mathematical functions.
