MISA: a Multi-objective Immune System Algorithm


Nareli Cruz Cortés developed a new multi-objective evolutionary algorithm based on an artificial immune system. The new algorithm, called MISA (Multi-objective Immune System Algorithm) is based on the clonal selection principle, and it uses an external population.
