Purpose The aim of this paper is to explore the potential of particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to solve an electromagnetic inverse problem. Design/methodology/approach A modified PSO algorithm is designed. Findings The modified PSO algorithm is a more stable, robust and efficient global optimizer for solving the well-known benchmark optimization problems. The new mutation approach preserves the diversity of the population, whereas the proposed dynamic and adaptive parameters maintain a good balance between the exploration and exploitation searches. The numerically experimental results of two case studies demonstrate the merits of the proposed algorithm. Originality/value Some improvements, such as the design of a new global mutation mechanism and introducing a novel strategy for learning and control parameters, are proposed.

We implement the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for the two-dimensional (2D) magnetotelluric (MT) inverse problem. We first validate PSO on two synthetic models of different complexity and then apply it to an MT benchmark for real-field data, the COPROD2 data set (Canada). We pay particular attention to the selection of the PSO input parameters to properly address the complexity of the 2D MT inverse problem. We enhance the stability and convergence of the solution of the geophysical problem by applying the hierarchical PSO with time-varying acceleration coefficients (HPSO-TVAC). Moreover, we parallelize the code to reduce the computation time because PSO is a computationally demanding global search algorithm. The inverse problem was solved for the synthetic data both by giving a priori information at the beginning and by using a random initialization. The a priori information was given to a small number of particles as the initial position within the search space of solutions, so that the swarming behavior was only slightly influenced. We have demonstrated that there is no need for the a priori initialization to obtain robust 2D models because the results are largely comparable with the results from randomly initialized PSO. The optimization of the COPROD2 data set provides a resistivity model of the earth in line with results from previous interpretations. Our results suggest that the 2D MT inverse problem can be successfully addressed by means of computational swarm intelligence.
