In this paper we give an overview of newest intelligent optimization methods in electrical engineering., In an optimization problem, the types of mathematical relationships between the objective function and constraints and the decision variables determine how hard it is to solve, the solution methods or algorithms that can be used for optimization, and the confidence we can have that the solution is truly optimal. In this work, most of the algorithms and applications about Intelligent optimization have been collected and described. It is explained how to solve each optimization problem, step by step with the simplest possible form
