Marine Predator Algorithm and Related Variants: A Systematic Review

—The Marine Predators Algorithm (MPA) is classified under swarm intelligence methods based on its type of inspiration. It is a population-based metaheuristic optimization algorithm inspired by the general foraging behavior exhibited in the form of Levy and Brownian motion in ocean predators support...
