We revisit the design of cloaks, without resorting to any geometric transform. Cancellation techniques and anomalous resonances have been applied for this purpose. Instead of a deductive reasoning, we propose a novel mono-objective optimization algorithm, namely a ternary grey wolf algorithm, and we adapt a bi-objective optimization algorithm. Firstly, the proposed chaotic ternary grey wolf algorithm searches three-valued spaces for all permittivity values in the cloak while minimizing the summation of a protection criterion and an invisibility criterion. Secondly, a bi-objective genetic algorithm is adapted to find pairs of optimal values of invisibility and protection.
Key words: Mono-objective optimization / bi-objective optimization / cloak design / protection / invisibility
