Abstract. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a global optimization technique that works similarly to swarms of birds searching for food. A Matlab code in PSO algorithm is developed to estimate the depth to the bottom of a 2.5-D sedimentary basin and coefficients of regional background from observed gravity anomalies. The density contrast within the source is assumed to be varying parabolically with depth. Initially, the PSO algorithm is applied on synthetic data with and without some Gaussian noise and its validity is tested by calculating the depth of the Gediz Graben, Western Anatolia and Godavari sub-basin, India. The Gediz Graben consists of Neogen sediments and the metamorphic complex forms the basement of the Graben. A thick uninterrupted sequence of Permian-Triassic and partly Jurassic and Cretaceous sediments forms the Godavari sub-basin. The PSO results are better than the results obtained by Marquardt method and the results are well correlated with borehole information.

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a population-based optimization technique that has been applied extensively to a wide range of engineering problems. This paper proposes a variation of the original PSO algorithm for unconstrained optimization, dubbed the enhanced partial search particle swarm optimizer (EPS-PSO), using the idea of cooperative multiple swarms in an attempt to improve the convergence and efficiency of the original PSO algorithm. The cooperative searching strategy is particularly devised to prevent the particles from being trapped into the local optimal solutions and tries to locate the global optimal solution efficiently. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified through the simulation study where the EPS-PSO algorithm is compared to a variety of exiting “cooperative” PSO algorithms in terms of noted benchmark functions.


Two tuning techniques namely: Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Ziegler Nichols (ZN) technique are compared. PSO is an optimization technique based on the movement and intelligence of swarms. PSO applies the concept of social interaction to problem solving. It is a computational method that optimizes a problem by iteratively trying to improve a candidate solution about a given measure of quality. Ziegler Nichols tuning method is a heuristic method of tuning a PID controller. The ZN close loop tuning is performed by setting the I (integral) and D (derivative) gains to zero and increasing proportional gain to obtain sustained oscillations. The DC Motor is represented by second order transfer function is used as a plant, which is controlled using PID controller. The PID controller parameters are chosen by tuning the controller using PSO algorithm and ZN method. The response of the system to unit step input is plotted and performance measures are evaluated for comparing PSO algorithm and ZN technique. Here we have compared the two tuning methods based upon the settling time (Ts), peak overshoot (Mp) and the two performance indices namely Integral square error (ISE) and Integral Absolute error (IAE).

Chaos is a non-linear phenomenon that widely exists in the nature. Due to the ease of implementation and its special ability to avoid being trapped in local optima, chaos has been a novel optimization technique and chaos-based searching algorithms have aroused intense interests. Many real world optimization problems are dynamic in which global optimum and local optima change over time. Particle swarm optimization has performed well to find and track optima in static environments. When the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is used in dynamic multi-objective problems, there exist some problems, such as easily falling into prematurely, having slow convergence rate and so on. To solve above problems, a hybrid PSO algorithm based on chaos algorithm is brought forward. The hybrid PSO algorithm not only has the efficient parallelism but also increases the diversity of population because of the chaos algorithm. The simulation result shows that the new algorithm is prior to traditional PSO algorithm, having stronger adaptability and convergence, solving better the question on moving peaks benchmark.
