Abstract:

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a stochastic global optimization algorithm inspired by social behavior of bird flocking in search for food, which is a simple but powerful, and widely used as a problem-solving technique to a variety of complex problems in science and engineering. A novel particle swarm optimization algorithm based on immunity-clonal strategies, called as clonal particle swarm optimization (CPSO), is proposed at first in this paper. By cloning the best individual of ten succeeding generations, CPSO has better optimization solving capability and faster convergence performance than the conventional standard particle swarm optimization (SPSO) based on a number of simulations. A detailed description and explanation of the CPSO algorithm are given in the paper. Several experiments on six benchmark test functions are conducted to demonstrate that the proposed CPSO algorithm is able to speedup the evolution process and improve the performance of global optimizer greatly, while avoiding the premature convergence on the multidimensional variable space.
