Recently, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm has exhibited good performance across a wide range of application problems. A quick review of the literature reveals that research for solving the Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP) using PSO approach has not much been investigated. In this paper, we design a hybrid meta-heuristic fuzzy scheme, called as variable neighborhood fuzzy particle ...

This paper proposes a novel application of a chaos particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for tracking a maximum power point (MPP) of a solar photovoltaic (PV) panel under varying atmospheric conditions. Solar PV cells have a nonlinear V-I characteristic with a distinct MPP which depends on environmental factors such as temperature and irradiation. In order to continuously harvest maximum ...

Association rule mining is one of the widely using and simple concepts to find the frequent item sets from large number of datasets. While generating frequent item sets from a large dataset using association rule mining is not so efficient. This can be improved by using particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO). PSO algorithm is population based evolutionary heuristic search methods used for ...
