Extended-range electric vehicle is considered to be the ideal transition type for electric vehicle. The optimal operation curve control strategy was proposed for a 12 meter-long range extended electric bus. With exponential function inertia weight adjustment and local chaos substitution, an improved chaotic particle swarm optimization algorithm was applied to optimize the key parameters of ener...

This paper presents a novel symbiotic multi-swarm particle swarm optimization (SMPSO) based on our previous proposed multi-swarm cooperative particle swarm optimization. In SMPSO, the population is divided into several identical sub-swarms and a center communication strategy is used to transfer the information among all the sub-swarms. The information sharing among all the sub-swarms can help t...

This paper presented a new particle swarm optimization based on evolutionary game theory (EPSO) for the traveling salesman problem (TSP) to overcome the disadvantages of premature convergence and stagnation phenomenon of traditional particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO). In addition ,we make a mapping among the three parts discrete particle swarm optimization (DPSO)、 evolutionary game the...

we present a novel and e±cient scheme that selects a minimal set of effective features and channels for detecting the p300 component of the event-related potential in the brain-computer interface (bci) paradigm. for obtaining a minimal set of effective features, we take the truncated coe±cients of discrete daubechies 4 wavelet, and for selecting the effective eeg channels, we utilize an improve...

Many heuristic-based approaches have been applied to finding schedules that minimize the execution time of computing tasks on parallel processors. Particle Swarm Optimization is currently employed in several optimization and search problems due its ease and ability to find solutions successfully. A variant of PSO, called as Improved PSO has been developed in this paper and is hybridized with th...

A number of algorithms based on the evolutionary processing have been proposed forcommunication networks backbone such as Genetic Algorithm (GA). However, there has beenlittle work on the SWARM optimization algorithms such as Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) for backbone topology design. In this paper, the performance of PSO on GA isdiscussed and a new algorithm as PSOGA is proposed for the net...

This study examines a variable-length Particle Swarm Algorithm for Social Programming. The Grammatical Swarm algorithm is a form of Social Programming as it uses Particle Swarm Optimisation, a social swarm algorithm, for the automatic generation of programs. This study extends earlier work on a fixed-length incarnation of Grammatical Swarm, where each individual particle represents choices of p...
