This paper analyzes theoretically the exact sampling distribution of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) without any assumption imposed by all current analyses. The distribution...
The issue of coalition formation has been investigated from many aspects, but until recently little attention has been paid to overlapping coalition formation. What’s more, an a...
The standard Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is a novel evolutionary algorithm in which each particle studies its own previous best solution and the group’s previous ...
This paper describes a method for improving the final accuracy and the convergence speed of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) by adapting its inertia factor in the velocity updati...
Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique has proved its ability to deal with very complicated optimization and search problems. Several variants of the original algorithm have b...
