A New Class of Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm

A new class of hybrid particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is developed for solving the premature convergence caused by some particles in standard PSO fall into stagnation. In this algorithm, the linearly decreasing inertia weight technique (LDIW) and the mutative scale chaos optimization algorithm (MSCOA) are combined with standard PSO, which are used to balance the global and local exploration abilities and enhance the local searching abilities, respectively. In order to evaluate the performance of the new method, three benchmark functions are used. The simulation results confirm the proposed algorithm can greatly enhance the searching ability and effectively improve the premature convergence.
