Analysis of Population Diversity of Dynamic Probabilistic Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithms

In evolutionary algorithm, population diversity is an important factor for solving performance. In this paper, combined with some population diversity analysis methods in other evolutionary algorithms, three indicators are introduced to be measures of population diversity in PSO algorithms, which ar...
