Research Area:  Metaheuristic Computing
Swarm intelligence optimization algorithms have turn out to be a progressively more valuable tool that can be practically applied in all areas of optimization and engineering discipline. Ant Lion Optimizer (ALO) is recently proposed swarm intelligence based meta-heuristic algorithm that models the interaction of ants and antlions in nature. ALO and its variants have been successfully applied to a lot of problems from various areas. This paper gives a brief review of this evolving algorithm of swarm intelligence with the aim of showing that ALO algorithm can be utilized to solve every problem arising in practice. This paper also encourages new researchers to use this algorithm or its efficient variant algorithm for problem solving.
