A metaheuristic algorithm where entropy dynamically balances exploration vs exploitation.
The entropy of the population fitness distribution is calculated as:
$$ H = - \sum_{i=1}^n p_i \log(p_i) $$
where \( p_i \) is the normalized probability of fitness rank \( i \). High entropy → explore more. Low entropy → exploit best candidates.
Most optimization algorithms degrade exponentially as dimensions increase. EGO defies this trend. In recent benchmarks (Jan 2026), EGO was tested against industry standards (PSO, DE, GA) in 100-Dimensional environments.

EGO shows that information-theoretic signals (entropy) can improve optimization stability. Future extensions: neural architecture search and ML hyperparameter tuning.
