Proportional integral derivative (PID) controller tuning is an area of interest for researchers in many disciplines of science and engineering. This paper presents a new algorithm...
We explore the use of information models as a guide for the development of single objective optimization algorithms, giving particular attention to the use of Bayesian models in a...
— Traditional particle swarm optimization (PSO) suffers from the premature convergence problem, which usually results in PSO being trapped in local optima. This paper presents an...
Niching is an important technique for multimodal optimization. Most existing niching methods require specification of certain niching parameters in order to perform well. These nic...
—This paper presents a new cooperative coevolving particle swarm optimization (CCPSO) algorithm in an attempt to address the issue of scaling up particle swarm optimization (PSO)...
