New framework models information flow freezing in particle swarm optimization

A new paper introduces a framework to evaluate information flow in small-scale Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms. The research models the iterative process as a dynamic weighted influence graph and proposes a freeze-point detection method. Experiments on CEC2017 benchmark functions indicate that the information flow structure freezes early in the search process, with the freeze time varying based on topology and parameter-adaptive variants.

    Freezing Mechanism and Topology Dependence of Information Flow Structure in Small-Scale Particle Swarm Optimization

    The neighborhood topology of particle swarm optimization (PSO) determines information propagation and regulates the exploration-exploitation balance. However, existing evaluation methods based on fitness and spatial diversity fail to characterize the dynamic evolution internal in…
