The aim of this study was to develop a nature-inspired metaheuristic method to predict the creep strain of green concrete containing ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) using an artificial neural network (ANN)model. The firefly algorithm (FA) was used to optimize the weights in the ANN. For this purpose, the cement content, GGBFS content, water-to-binder ratio, fine aggregate content, coarse aggregate content, slump, the compaction factor of concrete and the age after loading were used as the input parameters, and in turn, the creep strain (epsilon(cr)) of the GGBFS concrete was considered as the output parameters. To evaluate the accuracy of the FA-ANN model, it was compared with the well-known genetic algorithm (GA), imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). Results indicated that the ANNs model, in which the weights were optimized by the FA, were more capable, flexible and precise than other optimization algorithms in predicting the epsilon(cr) of GGBFS concrete.
