In this paper an extensive theoretical and empirical analysis of recently introduced Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm with Convergence Related parameters (CR-PSO) is presented. The convergence of the classical PSO algorithm is addressed in detail. The conditions that should be imposed on parameters of the algorithm in order for it to converge in mean-square have been derived. The practical...

For a decade swarm Intelligence is concerned with the design of intelligent systems by taking inspiration from the collective behaviors of social insects. Swarm Intelligence is a successful paradigm for the algorithm with complex problems. This paper focuses on the procedure of most successful methods of optimization techniques inspired by Swarm Intelligence: Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) and P...

to achieve an excellent thermal-mechanical performance of cmcs, it is necessary to analyze and design the thickness of the multi-layered interphases for an optimized trs distribution. an optimization was performed with a new version of the particle swarm optimization, the bsg-starcraft radius pso linked to a finite element software.

The purpose of this research is predicting the stock prices using the Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm and Box-Jenkins method. In this way, the information of 165 corporations is collected from 2001 to 2016. Then, this research considers price to earnings per share and earnings per share as main variables. The relevant regression equation was created using two variables of earnings per sha...

In this paper, a novel Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) identification algorithm for time-varying systems with a colored noise is presented. Presented criterion function can show not only outside system output error but also inside parameters error in order to explain more difference between actual and estimative system. Identification algorithm may consist of many different PSO algorithms tha...

In this study, we propose a novel method for medical problem, it is the integration of particle swarm optimization (PSO) and decision tree (C4.5) named PSO + C4.5 algorithm. To evaluate the effectiveness of PSO + C4.5 algorithm, it is implemented on 5 different data sets of life sciences obtained from UCI machine learning databases. Moreover, the results of PSO + C4.5 implementation are compare...

Many real-world problems are dynamic, requiring an optimization algorithm which is able to continuously track a changing optimum over time. In this paper, we present new variants of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) specifically designed to work well in dynamic environments. The main idea is to extend the single population PSO and Charged Particle Swarm Optimization (CPSO) methods by constructi...

Ant colony optimization (ACO) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) are two popular algorithms in swarm intelligence. Recently, a continuous ACO named ACOR was developed to solve the continuous optimization problems. This study incorporated ACOR with PSO to improve the search ability, investigating four types of hybridization as follows: (1) sequence approach, (2) parallel approach, (3) sequenc...

Optimization algorithms are proposed to tackle different complex problems in different areas. In this paper, we firstly put forward a new memetic evolutionary algorithm, named Monkey King Evolutionary (MKE) Algorithm, for global optimization. Then we make a deep analysis of three update schemes for the proposed algorithm. Finally we give an application of this algorithm to solve least gasoline ...
