“…Unlike the most of the evolutionary algorithms, each potential solution (individual) in PSO is also associated with a randomized velocity, and the potential solutions, called particles, are then ""flown"" through the problem space [18]. The performance of the traditional PSO greatly depends on its parameters, and it often suffers the problem of being trapped in local optima [19], [20]. In order to avoid these disadvantages, the chaotic particle swarm optimization (CPSO) method based on the logistic equation has been proposed [20], [21].…”
