INTRODUCTION
• The BA algorithm is proposed by Xin-She Yang in 2010.
• The algorithm exploits the so-called echolocation of the bats.
• The bat use sonar echoes to detect and avoid obstacles. It’s generally known that sound pulses are transformed into a frequency which reflects from obstacles. The bats navigate by using the time delay from emission to reflection.
INTRODUCTION
• After hitting and reflecting, the bats transform their own pulse into useful information to explore how far away the prey is.
• The pulse rate can be simply determined in the range from 0 to 1, where 0 means that there is no emission and 1 means that the bat’s emitting is their maximum. The bat behaviour can be used to formulate a new BAT.

IDEALIZED RULES OF BA
All bats use echolocation to sense distance, and they also ‘know’ the difference between food/prey and background barriers in some magical way.
Bats fly randomly with velocity vi at position xi with a fixed frequency fmin, varying wavelength λ and loudness A0 to search for prey. They can automatically adjust the wavelength of their emitted pulses and adjust the rate of pulse emission r λ [0,1], depending on the proximity of their target.
Although the loudness can vary in many ways, we assume that the loudness varies from a large (positive) A0 to a minimum constant value Amin.

MATHEMATICAL EQUATIONS
• Generating new solutions is performed by moving virtual bats according to the following equations:
• where β [0,1] is a random vector drawn from a uniform distribution.• Here x* is the current global best location (solution) which is located after comparing all the
solutions among all the bats.
• The current best solution according the equation:
where [-1,1] is a random number, while At is the average loudness of all the best at this time step.
• As the loudness usually decreases once a bat has found its pray, while the rate of pulse emission increases, the loudness can be chosen as any value of convenience.

where
The multilevel thresholding problem can be configured as a k-dimensional optimization problem, for determination of k optimal thresholds [t1, t2 ,..., tk ] which optimizes an objective function.
L gray levels in a given image I having M pixels and these grey levels are in the range {0,1,...L-1}.
The objective function is determined from the histogram of the image, denoted by h(i) , i= 0, 1,2, …. L-1 , where h(i) represents the number of pixels having the gray level i.
The normalized probability at level i is defined by the ratio Pi = h(i) /M .

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS
WHY BAT ALGORITHM BETTER?
Automatic zoomingBAT has a capability of
automatically zooming into a region where promising solutions
have been found.
Parameter controlBAT uses parameter control, which can vary the values of parameters (A and r) as the iterations proceed.
This provides a way to automatically switch from
exploration to exploitation when the optimal solution is
approaching.
Frequency tuningBA uses echolocation and frequency tuning to solve
problems. Though echolocation is not directly used to mimic the true
function in reality, frequency variations are used.
ADVANTAGES OF BAT
Simple, Flexible and Easy to implement.
Solve a wide range of problems and highly non linear problems efficiently.
Give best solution in quick time.
The loudness and pulse emission rates essentially provide a mechanism for automatic control and auto-zooming into the region.
It gives promising optimal solutions.
Works well with complicated problems
DISADVANTAGES OF BAT
Bat algorithm converge very quickly at the early stage and then convergence rate slow down
There is no mathematical analysis to link the parameters with convergence rates.
Accuracy may be limited if the number of function evaluations is not high.
Not clear what the best values are for most applications.
It is highly needed that large-scale application shoulds be tested.
