چکیده

In this paper we report an empirical comparison of some of the most influential Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms based on run-length distributions (RLDs). The advantage of our approach over the usual report pattern (average iterations to reach a predefined goal, success rates, and standard deviations) found in the current PSO literature is that it is possible to evaluate the performance of an algorithm on different application scenarios at the same time. The RLDs reported in this paper show some of the strengths and weaknesses of the studied algorithms and suggest ways of improving their performance.

Application of Particle Swarm Optimization and Genetic Algorithm Techniques to Solve Bi-level Congestion Pricing Problems

The solutions used to solve bi-level congestion pricing problems are usually based on heuristic network optimization methods which may not be able to find the best solution for these type of problems. The application of meta-heuristic methods can be seen as viable alternative solutions but so far, it has not received enough attention by researchers in this field. Therefore, the objective of thi...

Research of Blind Signals Separation with Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimization Based on Mutual Information

Blind source separation technique separates mixed signals blindly without any information on the mixing system. In this paper, we have used two evolutionary algorithms, namely, genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization for blind source separation. In these techniques a novel fitness function that is based on the mutual information and high order statistics is proposed. In order to evalu...
