This paper presents a demonstration of solving combined economic and emission dispatch problems by using one of swarm intelligences, called particle swarm optimization. The objective of the combined problem can be expressed by taking both the total production cost and total emission into account with required constraints. Among potential intelligent search methods, particle swarm optimization i...

In this paper, a recurrent functional neural fuzzy network (RFNFN) with symbiotic particle swarm optimization (SPSO) is proposed for solving identification and prediction problems. The proposed RFNFN model has feedback connections added in the membership function layer that can solve temporal problems. Moreover, an efficient learning algorithm, called symbiotic particle swarm optimization (SPSO...

In the present work, we introduce the particle swarm optimization called (PSO in short) to avoid the Runge’s phenomenon occurring in many numerical problems. This new approach is tested with some numerical examples including the generalized integral quadrature method in order to solve the Volterra’s integral equations. Keywords—Integral equation, particle swarm optimization, Runge’s phenomenon.

This paper proposes an improved approach based on conventional particle swarm optimization (PSO) for solving an economic dispatch(ED) problem with considering the generator constraints. The mutation operators of the differential evolution (DE) are used for improving diversity exploration of PSO, which called particle swarm optimization with mutation operators (PSOM). The mutation operators are ...

Abstract— Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is swarm intelligence based algorithm which is used for solving optimization problem. PSO simulates the intelligent foraging behavior of a flock of birds. This paper presents a modification in PSO and develops an algorithm called Highly Convergent Particle Swarm Optimization (HCPSO) algorithm, in which the velocity of particle is made to be ...

In this paper, an effective combination of two Metaheuristic algorithms, namely Invasive Weed Optimization and the Particle Swarm Optimization, has been proposed. This hybridization called as HIWOPSO, consists of two main phases of Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). Invasive weed optimization is the natureinspired algorithm which is inspired by colonial beha...

This study presents a new evolutionary learning algorithm to optimize the parameters of the neural fuzzy classifier (NFC). This new evolutionary learning algorithm is based on a hybrid of bacterial foraging optimization and particle swarm optimization. It is thus called bacterial foraging particle swarm optimization (BFPSO). The proposed BFPSO method performs local search through the chemotacti...

This paper presents a new mutation operator called the Sobol Mutation (SOM) operator for enhancing the performance of Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization (QPSO) algorithm. The SOM operator unlike most of its contemporary mutation operators do not use the random probability distribution for perturbing the swarm population, but uses a quasi random Sobol sequence to find new solution vectors in th...

so far various methods for optimization presented and one of most popular of them are optimization algorithms based on swarm intelligence and also one of most successful of them is particle swarm optimization (pso). prior some efforts by applying fuzzy logic for improving defects of pso such as trapping in local optimums and early convergence has been done. moreover to overcome the problem of i...
