An enhanced particle swarm optimization algorithm

An approach to Improve Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm Using CUDA

The time consumption in solving computationally heavy problems has always been a concern for computer programmers. Due to simplicity of its implementation, the PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) is a suitable meta-heuristic algorithm for solving computationally heavy problems. However, despite the simplicity, the algorithm is inefficient for solving real computationally heavy problems but the pr...

An Improved Probability Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm

This paper deals with the problem of unconstrained optimization. An improved probability particle swarm optimization algorithm is proposed. Firstly, two normal distributions are used to describe the distributions of particle positions, respectively. One is the normal distribution with the global best position as mean value and the difference between the current fitness and the global best fitne...

OPTIMIZATION OF PLACEMENTVOLTAGE OF PIEZOELECTRIC ACTUATORS ON AN L-SHAPE BEAM USING PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM

In this paper, controlling the location of the tip of an L-shape beam under gravity field is investigated. The beam is covered with piezoelectric patches. The gravity filed moves the tip of beam downward and the actuators with induced voltage move the tip to the previous location. to optimize the best location and voltages for actuators, the particle swarm optimization algorithm code is develop...

Multiplicate Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm

Using Particle Swarm Optimization to handle complex functions with high-dimension it has the problems of low convergence speed and sensitivity to local convergence. The convergence of particle swarm algorithm is studied, and the condition for the convergence of particle swarm algorithm is given. Results of numerical tests show the efficiency of the results.
