This paper proposed a modified algorithm, sequential niching particle swarm optimization (SNPSO), for the attempt to get multiple maxima of multimodal function. Based on the sequen...
Niching techniques play an important role in evolutionary algorithms. Existing niching methods often require userspecified parameters, limiting their usefulness. This paper propos...
Niching is an important technique for multimodal optimization. Most existing niching methods require specification of certain niching parameters in order to perform well. These nic...
Many scientific and engineering applications require optimization methods to find more than one solution to multimodal optimization problems. This paper presents a new particle ...
