Quantum-Behaved Particle Swarm Optimization Based on Diversity-Controlled

Part 1: Digital ServicesInternational audienceQuantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (QPSO) algorithm is a global convergence guaranteed algorithms, which outperforms original PSO in search ability but has fewer parameters to control. But QPSO algorithm is to be easily trapped into local optima as a result of the rapid decline in diversity. So this paper describes diversity-controlled into QPSO (QPSO-DC) to enhance the diversity of particle swarm, and then improve the search ability of QPSO. The experiment results on benchmark functions show that QPSO-DC has stronger global search ability than QPSO and standard PSO
