In order to improve performance of particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) in global optimization, the reason of premature convergence of the PSO is analyzed, and a new particle swarm optimization based on two subswarms (TSS-PSO) is proposed in this paper. The particle swarm is divided into two identical sub-swarms, that is, the first sub-swarm adopts basic PSO model to evolve, whereas the ...

A novel orthogonal multi-swarm cooperative particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm with a particle trajectory knowledge base is presented in this paper.

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a popular and robust strategy for optimization problems. One main difficulty in applying PSO to real-world applications is that PSO usually need a large number of fitness evaluations before a satisfying result can be obtained. This paper introduces a new ”fast particle swarm optimization” (FPSO) that does not evaluate all new positions owning a fitness and a...
