Abstract: Abstract Social algorithms have become popular and effective for solving problems in optimization and computational intelligence. They are population-based algorithms using multiple, interacting, and coevolving agents. We will review the brief history and introduce some of the commonly used social algorithms. We will also analyze these algorithms and then highlight some open problems so as to inspire further research.
