—The performance of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms depends strongly upon the interaction among the particles. The existing communication topologies for PSO (e.g. st...
Self-reconfigurable adaptive systems have the possibility of adapting their own hardware configuration. This feature provides enhanced performance and flexibility, reflected i...
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...
Evolution strategy (ES) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) are two of the most popular research topics for tackling real-parameter optimization problems in evolutionary computa...
Simplified forms of the particle swarm algorithm are very beneficial in contributing to understanding of what makes a PSO swarm function in the way that it does. One of these form...
