Big Bang–Big Crunch Algorithm

In this chapter, the big bang–big crunch (BB–BC), a global optimization method inspired from one of the cosmological theories known as closed universe, is introduced. We first, in Sect. 18.1, describe the background knowledge regarding the big bang and big crunch. Then, Sect. 18.2 details the fundamentals of BB–BC, the selected variants of BB–BC, and the representative BB–BC application, respectively. Finally, Sect. 18.3 draws the conclusions of this chapter.
