This paper presents a modification of the particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) intended to combat the problem of premature convergence observed in many applications of PSO. ...
Abstract—In the real world, many applications are nonstationary optimization problems. This requires that optimization algorithms need to not only find the global optimal soluti...
Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is a population-based stochastic optimization technique, which can be used to find an optimal, or near optimal, solution to a numerical and quali...
Abstract. Particle Swarm Optimisers (PSOs) search using a set of interacting particles flying over the fitness landscape. These are typically controlled by forces that encourage ...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) topology has significant influence on the performance, search efficiency and functionality, and scalability of the application. In this paper, we present a Gen...
