Abstract

The paper is devoted to the study of the harmonic search algorithm. A brief classification of optimization algorithms is given, and the relevance of the study of metaheuristic methods is shown. The steps of the canonical harmonic search algorithm are given. Two functions from two arguments - the Demirkhan function and the Stenger function were selected to check the algorithm’s performance. Next, we analyze the effectiveness of the algorithm on three functions of dimension 30. It is shown that optimization of a function with so many variables takes a significant amount of time.
