Jing Zhao, Jun Jie Sun, Wenbo Xu · 2013
A novel binary Quantum-behaved Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm with cooperative approach (CBQPSO) is introduced. In the proposed algorithm, the updating method of particle’s previous best position and swarm’s global best position are performed in each dimension of solution vector to avoid loss some components that have moved closer to the global optimal solution in the vector. Five test functions are used to test the performance of CBQPSO. The results of experiments show that the proposed technique can increase diversity of population and converge more rapidly than other binary algorithms.
