ABSTRACT
Recently, Boundary Control Methods (BCMs) have become increasingly relevant in the field of metaheuristic algorithms. In this study, we investigate the relationship between the activation frequency of different BCMs and the problem's dimensionality. Additionally, we analyze each problem dimension independently. Our research primarily concentrates on the top three algorithms from the IEEE CEC 2020 competition: AGSK, IMODE, and j2020, utilizing the competition benchmark set to conduct experiments. Our findings provide valuable insights into the metaheuristic domain, underlining the significance of comprehending BCM activation patterns to improve algorithm design and benchmarking practices.

Activation of inhibition: Diminishing impulsive behavior by direct current stimulation over the inferior frontal gyrus
A common feature of human existence is the ability to reverse decisions after they are made but before they are implemented. This cognitive control process, termed response inhibition, refers to the ability to inhibit an action once initiated and has ...
Task context and frontal lobe activation in the stroop task
The ability to step outside a routine-to select a new response over a habitual one-is a cardinal function of the frontal lobes. A large body of neuroimaging work now exists pointing to increased activation within the anterior cingulate when stimuli ...
