Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) belongs to a class of algorithms inspired by natural social intelligent behaviors, called Swarm Intelligence (SI). PSO has been successfully applied to solve ...

Particle swarm optimization isn't usually seen as the first-choice technique for training a neural network but, as James McCaffrey demonstrates, it's a useful alternative.

Novel 'cuckoo search algorithm' beats particle swarm optimization in engineering design Date: May 28, 2010 Source: Inderscience Summary: The familiar early summer call of the cuckoo has inspired ...

The paper explores the optimization of single-phase reactive power compensation (RPC) in low-voltage networks using a particle swarm algorithm. Three optimization options are explored using the ...

Particle swarm optimization is a meta-heuristic rather than a specific algorithm, meaning there are many possible implementations. The movement of a particle is controlled by the particle's velocity ...

The work published in the Opto-Electronic Advances journal reveals that in both the amorphous (aIST) and crystalline (cIST) ...
