Particle swarm optimisation (PSO) is an algorithm modelled on swarm intelligence that finds a solution to an optimisation problem in a search space or model and predicts social behaviour in the presence of objectives. The PSO is a stochastic, population-based computer algorithm modelled on swarm intelligence. Swarm intelligence is based on social-psychological principles and provides insights into social behaviour, as well as contributing to engineering applications. This book presents information on particle swarm optimisation such as using mono-objective and multi-objective particle swarm optimisation for the tuning of process control laws; convergence issues in particle swarm optimisation; and, study on vehicle routing problems using enhanced particle swarm optimisation and others.
