Unconstrained continuous large-scale global optimization (LSGO) is still a challenging task for a wide range of modern metaheuristic approaches. A cooperative coevolution approach is a good tool for increasing the performance of an evolutionary algorithm...

Modern real-valued optimization problems are complex and high-dimensional, and they are known as ?large-scale global optimization (LSGO)? problems. Classic evolutionary algorithms (EAs) perform poorly on this class of problems because of the curse of dim...

The conjugate gradient method is one of the most popular methods to solve large-scale unconstrained optimization problems since it does not require the second derivative, such as Newton?s method or approximations. Moreover, the conjugate gradient method ...
