布谷鸟搜索（Cuckoo Search，缩写 CS），也叫杜鹃搜索，是由剑桥大学杨新社（音译自：Xin-She Yang）教授和S.戴布（S.Deb）于2009年提出的一种新兴启发算法[1]。



CS算法是通过模拟某些种属布谷鸟的寄生育雏（Brood Parasitism） [2]，来有效地求解最优化问题的算法[3]。同时，CS也采用相关的Levy飞行搜索机制。研究表明，布谷鸟搜索比其他群体优化算法更有效-Cuckoo search (Cuckoo Search, acronym CS), also known as cuckoo search by Cambridge Young Novosti (transliteration since: Xin-She Yang) inspired a new professor and S. Dai cloth (S.Deb) proposed in 2009 algorithm [1].



CS algorithms by simulating certain species of parasitic cuckoo brood (Brood Parasitism) [2], to efficiently solving algorithm optimization problems [3]. Meanwhile, CS also uses related Levy flight search mechanism. Studies have shown that, compared to other groups cuckoo search optimization algorithm is more efficient
