CUCKOO SEARCH VIA LÉVY FLIGHTS FOR OPTIMIZATION OF A PHYSICALLY-BASED RUNOFF-EROSION MODEL

This paper aims to calibrate a physically-based, event-oriented runoff-erosion model by means of a global optimization method known as cuckoo-host co-evolution (CHC) which has co-evolutionary changes incorporated into the traditional cuckoo search algorithm. The physically-based erosion model that w...
