Abstract

Optimization of one or more objective function is a requirement for many real life problems. Due to their wide applicability in business, engineering and other areas, a number of algorithms have been proposed in literature to solve these problems to get optimal solutions in minimum possible time. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is a very popular optimization algorithm, and was developed by Dr. James Kennedy and Dr. Russell Eberhart in 1995 which was inspired by social behavior of bird flocking or fish schooling. In order to improve the performance of PSO algorithm, number of its variants has been proposed in literature. Few variants such as PSO Bound have been designed differently, whereas others use various methods to tune the random parameters. PSO - Time Varying Inertia Weight (PSO-TVIW), PSO Random Inertia Weight (PSO-RANDIW), and PSO-Time Varying Acceleration Coefficients (PSO-TVAC), APSO-VI, LGSCPSOA and many more are based on parameter tuning. On similar principle, the proposed approach improves the performance of PSO algorithm by adding new parameter henceforth called as “acceleration to particle” in its velocity equation. Efficiency of the proposed algorithm is checked against other existing PSO, and results obtained are very encouraging.
