Novel Global Harmony Search Algorithm for Nonlinear Two-Point Boundary Value Problem

Nonlinear two-point boundary value problem (BVP) is studied. After discretization of BVP by finite difference method, the system of nonlinear equations are formed, and solved by a recently proposed algorithm named novel global harmony search (NGHS). NGHS algorithm can overcome disadvantage of Newton's iterative methods. Numerical experiment shows that the NGHS algorithm has a higher rate of convergence than the other HS-variants.
