Open AccessParticle swarm optimization algorithm for the optimization of rescue task allocation with uncertain time constraints
This paper focuses on the problem of robot rescue task allocation, in which multiple robots and a global optimal algorithm are employed to plan the rescue task allocation. Accordingly, a modified particle swar...

Adaptive bare-bones particle swarm optimization algorithm and its convergence analysis
Bare-bones particle swarm optimization (BBPSO) was first proposed in 2003. Compared to the traditional particle swarm optimization, it is simpler and has only a few control parameters to be tuned by users. In ...
