A Dolphin Partner Optimization

In this paper, based on the bionic study on dolphin, a philosophy of dolphin Partner Optimization (DPO) was formulated and a so-called “Nucleus” was introduced to predict the best position according to the positions and fitness of the team members. After that, we test the DPO algorithm on several benchmark functions and the experiment result show it has rapid and niche character and good adaptability for different objective functions.
