Abstract :
We investigate a parallel structure of cat swarm optimization (CSO) in this paper, and we call it parallel cat swarm optimization (PCSO). In the experiments, we compare particle swarm optimization (PSO) with CSO and PCSO. The experimental results indicate that both CSO and PCSO perform well. Moreover, PCSO is an effective scheme to improve the convergent speed of cat swarm optimization in case the population size is small and the whole iteration is less.
