This paper presents an alternative and efficient method for solving a class of constraint parametric optimization problems using particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO). In this paper, for the first time PSO is used for solving convex parametric programming, but PSO must be adaptive for doing it. So, for obtaining particles velocities, adaptation weight and velocity boundaries in the updati...

Stock prices have the characteristics of nonlinearity, randomicity and uncertainty, so It is difficult to accurately depict the change rules of stock prices using traditional linear forecasting methods, which lead to low stock price prediction accuracy.
