Yanmei Li · Journal of Computer Applications · 2012
To deal with the problems of low accuracy and local convergence in conventional Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) algorithm,the chaos algorithm and cloud model algorithm were introduced into the evolutionary process of PSO algorithm and the chaos cloud model particle swarm optimization(CCMPSO) algorithm was proposed.The particles were divided into excellent particles and normal particles when CCMPSO was in convergent status.To search the global optimum location,the cloud model algorithm as well as excellent particles was applied to local refinement in convergent area,meanwhile chaos algorithm and normal particles were used to global optimization in the outside space of convergent area.The convergence of CCMPSO was analyzed by eigenvalue method.The simulation results prove the CCMPSO has better optimization performance than other main PSO algorithms.
