Exploring a Q-learning-based chaotic naked mole rat algorithm for S-box construction and optimization

This paper introduces a new variant of the metaheuristic algorithm based on the naked mole rat (NMR) algorithm, called the Q-learning naked mole rat algorithm (QL-NMR), for substitution box construction and optimization. Unlike most competing works (which typically integrate a single chaotic map int...
