Cooperative approaches have proved to be very useful in evolutionary computation due to their ability to solve efficiently high-dimensional complex problems through the cooperatio...
This study proposes Network-Structured Particle Swarm Optimizer (NS-PSO) with various neighborhood topology. The proposed PSO has the various network topology as rectangular, hexag...
When a local optimal solution is reached with classical Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), all particles in the swarm gather around it, and escaping from this local optima becomes...

— Geometric particle swarm optimization (GPSO) is a recently introduced formal generalization of a simplified form of traditional particle swarm optimization (PSO) without the i...
This paper introduces a hybrid metaheuristic, the Variable Neighborhood Particle Swarm Optimization (VNPSO), consisting of a combination of the Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) ...
