Abstract

The article focuses on the presentation and comparison of selected heuristic algorithms for solving the inverse problem for the anomalous diffusion model. Considered mathematical model consists of time-space fractional diffusion equation with initial boundary conditions. Those kind of models are used in modelling the phenomena of heat flow in porous materials. In the model, Caputo’s and Riemann-Liouville’s fractional derivatives were used. The inverse problem was based on identifying orders of the derivatives and recreating fractional boundary condition. Taking into consideration the fact that inverse problems of this kind are ill-conditioned, the problem should be considered as hard to solve. Therefore,to solve it, metaheuristic optimization algorithms popular in scientific literature were used and their performance were compared: Group Teaching Optimization Algorithm (GTOA), Equilibrium Optimizer (EO), Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO), War Strategy Optimizer (WSO), Tuna Swarm Optimization (TSO), Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), Jellyfish Search (JS) and Artificial Bee Colony (ABC). This paper presents computational examples showing effectiveness of considered metaheuristic optimization algorithms in solving inverse problem for anomalous diffusion model.
