This paper studies the Metabolic Multi-Agent Optimizer (MMAO) at the framework level rather than at the implementation or benchmark level. The central question is whether the metabolic resource loop of private energy, communal budget, role drift, and lifecycle turnover has a fram…
This paper studies whether the Metabolic Multi-Agent Optimizer (MMAO) can act as a credible outer-loop optimizer for classification model selection. We propose MMAO-Cls, a mixed-space realization in which each agent jointly encodes a binary feature mask and classifier hyperparame…
This paper studies whether the Metabolic Multi-Agent Optimizer (MMAO) can be credibly derived into a dynamic-optimization method without replacing its core metabolic control loop by external adaptation modules. The proposed MMAO-Dyn maps private energy, communal budget, role drif…
This paper evaluates the Metabolic Multi-Agent Optimizer (MMAO) under a stricter empirical protocol rather than reintroducing the framework itself. The study asks whether MMAO's closed-loop resource-allocation principle remains credible under broader, more standard, and more expl…
This paper presents the Metabolic Multi-Agent Optimizer (MMAO) as an adaptive metaheuristic built around endogenous resource circulation. The central premise is that search intensity, exploration--exploitation balance, and lifecycle turnover should be induced by a shared metaboli…
Traditional meta-heuristics often rely on fixed population sizes, manually chosen search scales, and externally attached parameter-control modules. This paper presents the \textit{Metabolic Multi-Agent Optimizer} (MMAO), a cross-domain optimization framework in which adaptation i…
