Distributed detection by Particle Swarm Optimization

Nature inspired optimization methods have been finding many application areas in different disciplines due to their ease of use and high performance. In this study, Particle Swarm Optimization, a nature inspired optimization method, is applied to the distributed detection problem which is a popular topic of recent years. In the scenarios, experimented on a basic distributed topology, the performance of the PSO has been observed considerably high in terms of accuracy, reliability, and speed.
