The convergence speed and the diversity of the population plays a critical role in the performance of particle swarm optimization (PSO). In order to balance the trade-off between exploration and exploitation, a novel particle swarm optimization based on the hybrid learning model (PSO-HLM) is proposed. In the early iteration stage, PSO-HLM updates the velocity of the particle based on the hybrid learning model, which can improve the convergence speed. At the end of the iteration, PSO-HLM employs a multi-pools fusion strategy to mutate the newly generated particles, which can expand the population diversity, thus avoid PSO-HLM falling into a local optima. In order to understand the strengths and weaknesses of PSO-HLM, several experiments are carried out on 30 benchmark functions. Experimental results show that the performance of PSO-HLM is better than other the-state-of-the-art algorithms.
