In this paper an extensive empirical analysis of recently introduced Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm with Convergence Related parameters (CR-PSO) is presented. The algorithm is tested on extended set of benchmarks and the results are compared to the PSO with time-varying acceleration coefficients (TVAC-PSO) and the standard genetic algorithm (GA). Key-Words: Global Optimization, Particle ...

The effectiveness of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) depends on the coverage and target detection probability provided by dynamic deployment, which is supported by the several methods. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is one these methods, however computation time required is a big bottleneck. This paper proposes three dynamic PSO-based deployment algorithms that reduce the computati...

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 ...

This paper presents a modification of the particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) intended to combat the problem of premature convergence observed in many applications of PSO. In the new algorithm, each particle is attracted towards the best previous positions visited by its neighbors, in addition to the other aspects of particle dynamics in PSO. This is accomplished by using the ratio of t...

We introduce a high-performing composite particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. In an analogy to the popular character of Mary Shelley’s famous novel, we call our algorithm Frankenstein’s PSO, as it consists of different algorithmic components drawn from other PSO variants. Frankenstein’s PSO constituents were selected after careful evaluation of their impact on speed and reliability. We ...

The Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) Algorithm is one of swarm intelligence optimization algorithms. Usually the population’s values of PSO algorithm are random which leads to random distribution of search quality and search velocity. This paper presents PSO based on uniform design (UD). UD is widely used in various applications and introduced to generate an initial population, in which the po...

the main purpose in this paper, to express strong algorithmic optimization in their ability to detect expression target of sar that use in aircraft, plane and satellites to observe the target on the ground. for this purpose,the sar technology and its applications are introduced. previous algorithms used in this field with poor diagnosis and appropriate speed is low, like means and fuzzy and pso...

QoS multicast routing is a non-linear combinatorial optimization problem that arises in many multimedia applications. Providing QoS support is crucial to guarantee effective transportation of multimedia service in multicast communication. Computing the band-widthdelay constrained least cost multicast routing tree is an NP-complete problem. In this paper, a novel heuristic QoS multicast routing ...

A Gaussian correction scheme is proposed and a G-PSO algorithm is proposed. Through the introduction of Gaussian coefficients, we modify the fitness function of PSO algorithm, the particle individual velocity and the position updating strategy. Furthermore, two test functions are used to analyze the performance of G-PSO algorithm to solve the global optimal solution. Experimental results of vir...
