A new optimization algorithm based on mimicking the voting process for leader selection.

ABSTRACT: Stochastic-based optimization algorithms are effective approaches to addressing optimization challenges. In this article, a new optimization algorithm called the Election-Based Optimization Algorithm (EBOA) was developed that mimics the voting process to select the leader. The fundamental inspiration of EBOA was the voting process, the selection of the leader, and the impact of the public awareness level on the selection of the leader. The EBOA population is guided by the search space under the guidance of the elected leader. EBOA's process is mathematically modeled in two phases: exploration and exploitation. The efficiency of EBOA has been investigated in solving thirty-three objective functions of a variety of unimodal, high-dimensional multimodal, fixed-dimensional multimodal, and CEC
