Abstract

This paper introduces a class of adaptive particle swarm optimization (PSO) methods that build on the theory of nonextensive statistical mechanics. These methods combine the traditional position update rule with an annealing schedule that is based on the nonextensive entropy. Comparative experiments conducted on benchmark functions, have showed that the tested algorithms outperform the standard PSO.
