Abstract In existing meta-heuristic algorithms, population initialization forms a huge part towards problem optimization. These calculations can impact variety and combination to locate a productive ideal arrangement. Especially, for perceiving the significance of variety and intermingling, different specialists have attempted to improve the presentation of meta-heuristic algorithms. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is a populace-based, shrewd stochastic inquiry strategy that is motivated by the inherent honey bee swarm food search mechanism. Population initialization is an indispensable factor in the PSO algorithm. To improve the variety and combination factors, rather than applying the irregular circulation for the… More >

Abstract In many fields such as signal processing, machine learning, pattern recognition and data mining, it is common practice to process datasets containing huge numbers of features. In such cases, Feature Selection (FS) is often involved. Meanwhile, owing to their excellent global search ability, evolutionary computation techniques have been widely employed to the FS. So, as a powerful global search method and calculation fast than other EC algorithms, PSO can solve features selection problems well. However, when facing a large number of feature selection, the efficiency of PSO drops significantly. Therefore, plenty of works have been… More >
