Advances in Particle Swarm Optimization

Particle swarm optimization can be defined as a computational method that is used to optimize a problem by iteratively trying to improve a candidate solution with respect to a given measure of quality. It is deployed to solve a problem by having a population of candidate solutions and moving them around in the search-space in accordance with simple mathematical formulae over the particle's position and velocity. Particle swarm optimization can search very large spaces of candidate solutions...
