Abstract

In this paper, an improved PSO algorithm for nonlinear approximation is proposed. The particle swarm optimization is easy to lose the diversity of the swarm and trap into the local minima. In order to resolve this problem, in the proposed algorithm, when the swarm loses its diversity, the current each particle and its historical optimium are interrupted by random function. Moreover, the a priori information obtained from the nonlinear approximation problem is encoded into the PSO. Hence, the proposed algorithm could not only improve the diversity of the swarm but also reduce the likelihood of the particles being trapped into local minima on the error surface. Finally, two real data in chemistry field are used to verify the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
