Abstract

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms are attracting attentions in recent years, due to their ability of keeping good balance between convergence and diversity maintenance. Several attempts have been made to improve the performance of the original PSO algorithm. Inspired by trajectory analysis of the PSO and quantum mechanics, a quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (QPSO) algorithm was recently proposed. QPSO has shown some important advantages by providing high speed of convergence in specific problems, but it has a tendency to get stuck in a near optimal solution and one may find it difficult to improve solution accuracy by fine tuning. In this paper, a modified and efficient version of the QPSO combined with chaotic sequences (CQPSO) is proposed and evaluated. We conduct simulations to estimate the unknown variables of an inverse heat transfer problem to verify the performance of the proposed CQPSO method and show that the method can be competitive when compared with the classical QPSO.
