EPSO - best-of-two-worlds meta-heuristic applied to power system problems
Vladimiro Miranda, Nuno A. Fonseca · 2003
This paper presents a new meta-heuristic (EPSO) built putting together the best features of evolution strategies (ES) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). Examples of the superiority of EPSO over classical PSO are reported. The paper also describes the application of EPSO to real world problems, including an application in opto-electronics and another in power systems.
