In order to obtain geotechnical engineering material mechanical parameters correctly by using back analysis and overcome shortcoming of ordinary Particle Swarm Optimization, Improved Particle Swarm Optimization (IPSO) algorithm is developed on the aspects such as Stretching Particle, Metropolis Algorithm and adaptive weight updating .at the same time, the algorithm is compared with Catastrophe Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm (CPSO) and Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm(QPSO). Also result of back analysis was compared with that of Ultrasonic Testing and that of mixed-model of dam monitoring. The analysis shows that IPSO has better performance than that of PSO and CPSO, and considerable performance with QPSO.

The reconstruction algorithm has a hot research in compressed sensing. Matching pursuit algorithm has a huge computational task, when particle swarm optimization has been put forth to find the best atom, but it due to the easy convergence to local minima, so the paper proposed a algorithm ,which based on improved particle swarm optimization. The algorithm referred above combines K-mean and particle swarm optimization algorithm. The algorithm not only effectively prevents the premature convergence, but also improves the K-mean’s local. These findings indicated that the algorithm overcomes premature convergence of particle swarm optimization, and improves the quality of image reconstruction.
