The current particle is created using the Particle constructor, and the position of the newly-created particle is examined to see if it's the best position of any of the particles in the swarm. After ...

Examples include bio-inspired optimization techniques such as genetic algorithms and particle swarm optimization, and geometry-inspired techniques such as Nelder-Mead (also known as simplex, or amoeba ...

Different from the method used in most of the previous studies, discrete particle swarm optimization (DPSO) algorithm was used to identify and classify emergent vegetation (EV), yellow algae (YA), ...

"Novel 'cuckoo search algorithm' beats particle swarm optimization in engineering design." ScienceDaily. ScienceDaily, 28 May 2010. <www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2010 / 05 / 100527213816.htm>.

This is also immensely useful for drone swarms. Last February, Ehang, an aviation company out of China, created a swarm of a thousand drones that not only lit the sky with colorful, intricate displays ...
