Opposition-Based Barebones Particle Swarm for Constrained Nonlinear Optimization Problems

الملخص EN

This paper presents a modified barebones particle swarm optimization (OBPSO) to solve constrained nonlinear optimization problems.

The proposed approach OBPSO combines barebones particle swarm optimization (BPSO) and opposition-based learning (OBL) to improve the quality of solutions.

A novel boundary search strategy is used to approach the boundary between the feasible and infeasible search region.

Moreover, an adaptive penalty method is employed to handle constraints.

To verify the performance of OBPSO, a set of well-known constrained benchmark functions is used in the experiments.

Simulation results show that our approach achieves a promising performance.
