A Multi-objective problems occurs wherever optimal solution necessary to be taken in the presence of tradeoffs between more than one conflicting objectives. Usually the population’s values of MOPSO algorithm are random which leads to random search quality. Particle Swarm Optimization Based on Multi Objective Functions with Uniform Design (MOPSO-UD), is proposed to enhance the accuracy of the pa...

In multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO), a proper selection of local guides significantly influences detection of non-dominated solutions in the objective/solution space and, hence, the convergence characteristics towards the Pareto-optimal set. This paper presents an algorithm based on simple heuristics for selection of local guides in MOPSO, named as HSG-MOPSO (Heuristics-based...

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) has received increasing attention in solving multi-objective economic dispatch (ED) problems in power systems because of parallel computation, faster convergence, and easier implementation. This paper presents a detailed overview of multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) and provides a comprehensive survey on its applications in power system econom...

A newmultiobjective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) technique for environmental/economic dispatch (EED) problem is proposed in this paper. The proposed MOPSO technique evolves a multiobjective version of PSO by proposing redefinition of global best and local best individuals in multiobjective optimization domain. The proposedMOPSO technique has been implemented to solve the EED problemwith ...

Multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) is a search algorithm based on social behavior. Most of the existing multi-objective particle swarm optimization schemes are based on Pareto optimality and aim to obtain a representative non-dominated Pareto front for a given problem. Several approaches have been proposed to study the convergence and performance of the algorithm, particularly ...

In this paper, we illustrate a novel optimization approach based on Multi-objective Particle Swarm Optimization (MOPSO) and Fuzzy Ant Colony Optimization (FACO). The basic idea is to combine these two techniques using the best particle of the Fuzzy Ant algorithm and integrate it as the best local Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), to formulate a new approach called hybrid MOPSO with FACO (H-MOP...

We consider an optimization deployment problem of multistatic radar system (MSRS). Through the antenna placing and the transmitted power allocating, we optimally deploy the MSRS for two goals: 1) the first one is to improve the coverage ratio of surveillance region; 2) the second goal is to get a even distribution of signal energy in surveillance region. In two typical working modes of MSRS, we...

In the recent years, multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) has become quite popular in the field of multi-objective optimization. However, due to a large amount of fitness evaluations as well as the task of archive maintaining, the running time of MOPSO for optimizing some difficult problems may be quite long. This paper proposes a parallel MOPSO based on consumer-level Graphics P...

This paper presents a particle swarm optimisation (PSO) based multi-objective feature selection approach to evolving a set of non-dominated feature subsets and achieving high classification performance. Firstly, a pure multi-objective PSO (named MOPSO-SRD) algorithm, is applied to solve feature selection problems. The results of this algorithm is then used to compare with the proposed a multi-o...

Constraint handling techniques are mainly designed for evolutionary algorithms to solve constrained multiobjective optimization problems (CMOPs). Most multiojective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) designs adopt these existing constraint handling techniques to deal with CMOPs. In the proposed constrained MOPSO, information related to particles’ infeasibility and feasibility status is utilize...
