Improved particle swarm optimization with a collective local unimodal search for continuous optimization problems.

A new local search technique is proposed and used to improve the performance of particle swarm optimization algorithms by addressing the problem of premature convergence. In the proposed local search technique, a potential particle position in the solution search space is collectively constructed by...
