PSO algorithm is an intelligent optimization algorithm based on swarm intelligence. Particle swarm optimization algorithm is simple, easy to implement, and it has a wide application prospect in scientific research and engineering applications. In real life, most of the optimization problem is the optimization problem of some nonlinear discrete with the existence of local. PSO algorithm also has...

1. Abstract Swarm algorithms such as Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) are non-gradient probabilistic optimization algorithms that have been successfully applied to obtain global optimal solutions for complex problems such as multi-peak problems. However these algorithms have not been applied to complicated structural and mechanical optimization problems since local optimization capability is s...

Swarm robots are special multi-robots and usually considered being controlled with swarm intelligence-basedmethod to complete some assigned complex tasks (Dorigo and Sahin, 2004). Similar to the biological counterparts in nature, swarm intelligence among such artificial system is emerged from local interactions between individual robots or individual robot and its environment (Beni, 2005; Şahin...

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is an artificial intelligence (AI) technique that can be used to find approximate solutions to extremely difficult or impossible numeric maximization and minimization problems. Particle swarm optimization is an optimization method. It is an optimization algorithm, which is based on swarm intelligence. Optimization problems are widely used in different fields of...

Bio-inspired algorithms are algorithms inspired in the nature commonly used for solving optimization problems. A class of the bioinspired optimization algorithms is swarm algorithms which mimic the collective behavior in animals. An example is Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based in the social behavior of bird flocking. This paper presents a variation on the basic PSO algorithm, called A2PSO...

Swarm optimization, swarm intelligence and swarm robotics are the fields considering a group of relatively simple individuals able cooperate to perform complex tasks, in decentralized manner. The inspiration is found in the first line within animal societies, such as birds, ants and bees. Social insects exhibit successful behavior in performing complex tasks on the level of the group, and are a...

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a well-known instance of swarm intelligence algorithms and there have been many researches on PSO. In this paper, the author proposes an extension of PSO for solving fuzzy-valued optimization problems. In the proposed extension, genotype values (i.e. values in particle position vectors) are not real numbers but fuzzy numbers. Search processes in PSO are exte...
