Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a new particle swarm approach based on the idea of repulsion by a magnetic field. The structure of the method is presented and, using a number of well-known benchmark functions in a 30-dimension search space, its performance is compared to that of well-established algorithms of similar inspiration. The global search potential of the proposal is also analyzed with the aid of a simpler simulation setup.
