An improved particle swarm optimization algorithm with disturbance

2004 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man and Cybernetics (IEEE Cat. No.04CH37583), 2005
The impacts of constant parameters on particle swarm optimization are discussed. A velocity or position disturbance is introduced to prevent premature phenomenon of the original algorithm. A valve is introduced and the selection criteria are discussed. Simulations have been carried and the results show this improved algorithm has better performance by ...

An Improved Particle Swarm Optimization for Continuous Problems

2009 Fifth International Conference on Natural Computation, 2009
This paper describes an improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm that combines stochastic local search (SLS) heuristics,named PSOSLS, to solve costly procedure of search and premature convergence for continuous function optimization problems. The SLS is embedded in the PSO to improve the proposed heuristics. During the global search process,

An Improved Particle Swarm Optimization for Complex Optimization Problems

2013
An improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) is proposed where a general center particle is incorporated into particle swarm optimization (PSO) with linearly decreasing inertia weight factor in this paper. The general center particle is formed by the center of the best-found positions of all particles in IPSO.

Improving cascading classifiers with particle swarm optimization

Eighth International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition (ICDAR'05), 2005
This paper addresses the issue of class related reject thresholds for cascading classifier systems. It has been demonstrated in the literature that class related reject thresholds provide an error-reject tradeoff better than a single global threshold. In this work we argue that the error-reject tradeoff yielded by class-related reject thresholds can be

An improved particle swarm optimization by hybriding with JADE

2017 International Symposium on Intelligent Signal Processing and Communication Systems (ISPACS), 2017
To overcome the weakness of particle swarm optimization (PSO), this study proposed an improvement of PSO by hybriding the adaptive differential evolution with optional external archive (JADE), named PSOJADE, to balance the global and local search capabilities. To evaluate the effectiveness of the algorithm, in the experiments, the proposed algorithm is

A New Approach to Improve Particle Swarm Optimization

2003
Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a new evolutionary computation technique. Although PSO algorithm possesses many attractive properties, the methods of selecting inertia weight need to be further investigated. Under this consideration, the inertia weight employing random number uniformly distributed in [0,1] was introduced to improve the performance

An Improved Particle Swarm Algorithms for Global Optimization

2010 International Conference on Machine Vision and Human-machine Interface, 2010
Particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is a robust and efficient approach for solving complex real-world problems. In this paper, a modified particle swarm algorithm (IMPSO) is introduced for unconstrained global optimization. The whole swarm is partitioned to three different sub-populations according to their fitness, and different velocity ...

An improved Particle Swarm Optimization with adaptive jumps

2008 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence), 2008
Particle swarm optimization (PSO) has shown its fast search speed in many complicated optimization and search problems. However, PSO could often easily fall into local optima. This paper presents an improved PSO with adaptive jump. The proposed method combines a novel jump strategy and an adaptive Cauchy mutation operator to help escape from local ...
