Only a few of the metaheuristic optimisation techniques covered in this work include genetic algorithms, particle swarm optimisation, simulated annealing, ant colony optimisation, and many others. This paper discusses the history, operation, and applications of each method, including applications in engineering, finance, and bioinformatics. 2023 2023 21 30 10.54216/JAIM.030102 https://www.americaspg.com/articleinfo/28/show/1875
