Particle Swarm is a heuristic technique based on collective behavior of birds. Several researches depicts that the PSO suffers from untimely convergence. To defeat the issue of untimely convergence in PSO several solutions are proposed to increase the performance in term of accuracy. This paper suggests a new hybrid mutation operator which used Chi-square and stable distribution. The hybrid mutation operator leads the swarm from local minima to global minima for better solution. To validate the new hybrid scheme, a 12 benchmark optimization functions are used in experiment and compared the result with pervious 6 variants of PSO, proposed variant achieved better results than previous 6 variants.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
