Abstract

In this article a preliminary experiment is carried out in which a set of elements and procedures are described to be able to solve problems of continuous domains integrated in the Andean Condor Algorithm. The Andean Condor Algorithm is a metaheuristic algorithm of swarm intelligence inspired by the movement pattern of the Andean condor when searching for its food. An experiment focused on solving the problem of the function 1st De Jong's \(f(x_1 \cdots x_n) = \sum_{i=1}^n x_i^2,~ -100 \leq x_i \leq 100\). According to the results obtained, solutions have been obtained close to the overall optimum value of the problem.
