Abstract

Optimization techniques play a critical role in advancing health care engineering and computer science by providing efficient solutions to complex problems. This paper reviews both mathematical and nature-inspired optimization techniques, highlighting their applications in medical diagnosis, treatment planning, resource allocation, and software engineering. Traditional mathematical approaches such as linear programming and dynamic programming are examined alongside bio-inspired algorithms like genetic algorithms, particle swarm optimization, and artificial bee colony algorithms. A comparative analysis of their effectiveness, computational complexity, and real-world implementation is presented.
