Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a population-based optimization technique that has been applied extensively to a wide range of engineering problems. This paper proposes a variation of the original PSO algorithm for unconstrained optimization, dubbed the enhanced partial search particle swarm optimizer (EPS-PSO), using the idea of cooperative multiple swarms in an attempt to improve the convergence and efficiency of the original PSO algorithm. The cooperative searching strategy is particularly devised to prevent the particles from being trapped into the local optimal solutions and tries to locate the global optimal solution efficiently. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified through the simulation study where the EPS-PSO algorithm is compared to a variety of exiting “cooperative” PSO algorithms in terms of noted benchmark functions.

AbstractWeb service compositions are commendable in structuring innovative applications for different Internet-based business solutions. The existing services can be reused by the other applications via the web. Due to the availability of services that can serve similar functionality, suitable Service Composition (SC) is required. There is a set of candidates for each service in SC from which a suitable candidate service is picked based on certain criteria. Quality of service (QoS) is one of the criteria to select the appropriate service. A standout amongst the most important functionality presented by services in the Internet of Things (IoT) based system is the dynamic composability. In this paper, two of the metaheuristic algorithms namely Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) are utilized to tackle QoS based service composition issues. QoS has turned into a critical issue in the management of web services because of the immense number of services that furnish similar functionality yet with various characteristics. Quality of service in service composition comprises of different non-functional factors, for example, service cost, execution time, availability, throughput, and reliability. Choosing appropriate SC for IoT based applications in order to optimize the QoS parameters with the fulfillment of user’s necessities has turned into a critical issue that is addressed in this paper. To obtain results via simulation, the PSO algorithm is used to solve the SC problem in IoT. This is further assessed and contrasted with GA. Experimental results demonstrate that GA can enhance the proficiency of solutions for SC problem in IoT. It can also help in identifying the optimal solution and also shows preferable outcomes over PSO.

Randomized Search

Abstract A discrete particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is a randomized search heuristic for discrete optimization problems. A fundamental question about randomized search heuristics is how long it takes, in expectation, until an optimal solution is found. We give an overview of recent developments related to this question for discrete PSO algorithms. In particular, we give a comparison of known upper and lower bounds of expected runtimes and briefly discuss the techniques used to obtain these bounds.

For the first time , the Holonic Particle Swarm Optimization (HPSO ) algorithm applies multiagent theory about the improvement in the PSO algorithm and achieved good results. In order to further improve the performance of the algorithm, this paper proposes an improved Adaptive Holonic Particle Swarm Optimization (AHPSO) algorithm. Firstly, a brief review of the HPSO algorithm is carried out, and the HPSO algorithm can be further studied in three aspects: grouping strategy, iteration number setting, and state switching discrimination. The HPSO algorithm uses an approximately uniform grouping strategy that is the simplest but does not consider the connections between particles. And if the particles with larger or smaller differences are grouped together in different search stages, the search efficiency will be improved. Therefore, this paper proposes a grouping strategy based on information entropy and system clustering and combines two grouping strategies with corresponding search methods. The performance of the HPSO algorithm depends on the setting of the number of iterations. If it is too small, it is difficult to search for the optimal and it wastes so many computing resources. Therefore, this paper constructs an adaptive termination condition that causes the particles to terminate spontaneously after convergence. The HPSO algorithm only performs a conversion from extensive search to exact search and still has the potential to fall into local optimum. This paper proposes a state switching condition to improve the probability that the algorithm jumps out of the local optimum. Finally, AHPSO and HPSO are compared by using 22 groups of standard test functions. AHPSO is faster in convergence than HPSO, and the number of iterations of AHPSO convergence is employed in HPSO. At this point, there exists a large gap between HPSO and the optimal solution, i.e., AHPSO can have better algorithm efficiency without setting the number of iterations.

Fixed Path

To overcome the shortage of standard Particle Swarm Optimization(SPSO) on premature convergence, Quantum-behaved Particle Swarm Optimization (QPSO) is presented to solve engineering constrained optimization problem. QPSO algorithm is a novel PSO algorithm model in terms of quantum mechanics. The model is based on Delta potential, and we think the particle has the behavior of quanta. Because the particle doesn’t have a certain trajectory, it has more randomicity than the particle which has fixed path in PSO, thus the QPSO more easily escapes from local optima, and has more capability to seek the global optimal solution. In the period of iterative optimization, outside point method is used to deal with those particles that violate the constraints. Furthermore, compared with other intelligent algorithms, the QPSO is verified by two instances of engineering constrained optimization, experimental results indicate that the algorithm performs better in terms of accuracy and robustness.

Optimization algorithms are necessary to solve many problems such as parameter tuning. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is one of these optimization algorithms. The aim of PSO is to search for the optimal solution in the search space. This paper highlights the basic background needed to understand and implement the PSO algorithm. This paper starts with basic definitions of the PSO algorithm and how the particles are moved in the search space to find the optimal or near optimal solution. Moreover, a numerical example is illustrated to show how the particles are moved in a convex optimization problem. Another numerical example is illustrated to show how the PSO trapped in a local minima problem. Two experiments are conducted to show how the PSO searches for the optimal parameters in one-dimensional and two-dimensional spaces to solve machine learning problems.

Two tuning techniques namely: Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Ziegler Nichols (ZN) technique are compared. PSO is an optimization technique based on the movement and intelligence of swarms. PSO applies the concept of social interaction to problem solving. It is a computational method that optimizes a problem by iteratively trying to improve a candidate solution about a given measure of quality. Ziegler Nichols tuning method is a heuristic method of tuning a PID controller. The ZN close loop tuning is performed by setting the I (integral) and D (derivative) gains to zero and increasing proportional gain to obtain sustained oscillations. The DC Motor is represented by second order transfer function is used as a plant, which is controlled using PID controller. The PID controller parameters are chosen by tuning the controller using PSO algorithm and ZN method. The response of the system to unit step input is plotted and performance measures are evaluated for comparing PSO algorithm and ZN technique. Here we have compared the two tuning methods based upon the settling time (Ts), peak overshoot (Mp) and the two performance indices namely Integral square error (ISE) and Integral Absolute error (IAE).

Aggregate Production

In the industrial world, companies need to manage their production areas well. One way is to implement aggregate production planning. The goal is that the production costs incurred by the company can be controlled properly. However, production planning cannot be formulated quickly. The problem is more complicated if the company has several production locations. The difference in location also affects the production references and standards applied in each location. Based on these problems, the authors propose to apply the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm to solve the problem of aggregate production planning in order to obtain the optimal solution for each production location. As a result, the algorithm proposed by the author can produce optimal and efficient solutions for 6 production sites. This is evidenced by the relatively short time required compared to the previous planning by the company.

Recent Developments

Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is a metaheuristic global optimization paradigm that has gained prominence in the last two decades due to its ease of application in unsupervised, complex multidimensional problems which cannot be solved using traditional deterministic algorithms. The canonical particle swarm optimizer is based on the flocking behavior and social co-operation of birds and fish schools and draws heavily from the evolutionary behavior of these organisms. This paper serves to provide a thorough survey of the PSO algorithm with special emphasis on the development, deployment and improvements of its most basic as well as some of the very recent state–of-the-art implementations. Concepts and directions on choosing the inertia weight, constriction factor, cognition and social weights and perspectives on convergence, parallelization, elitism, niching and discrete optimization as well as neighborhood topologies are outlined. Hybridization attempts with other evolutionary and swarm paradigms in selected applications are covered and an up-to-date review is put forward for the interested reader.

Chaos Algorithm

Chaos is a non-linear phenomenon that widely exists in the nature. Due to the ease of implementation and its special ability to avoid being trapped in local optima, chaos has been a novel optimization technique and chaos-based searching algorithms have aroused intense interests. Many real world optimization problems are dynamic in which global optimum and local optima change over time. Particle swarm optimization has performed well to find and track optima in static environments. When the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is used in dynamic multi-objective problems, there exist some problems, such as easily falling into prematurely, having slow convergence rate and so on. To solve above problems, a hybrid PSO algorithm based on chaos algorithm is brought forward. The hybrid PSO algorithm not only has the efficient parallelism but also increases the diversity of population because of the chaos algorithm. The simulation result shows that the new algorithm is prior to traditional PSO algorithm, having stronger adaptability and convergence, solving better the question on moving peaks benchmark.
