  • Abstract
    In this paper, an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm with momentum (mPSO) is proposed based on inspiration from the back propagation (BP) learning algorithm with momentum in neural networks. The momentum acts as a lowpass filter to relieve excessive oscillation and also extends the PSO velocity updating equation to a second-order difference equation. Experimental results are shown to verify its superiority both in robustness and efficiency.
