Papers

1999 - A Particle Swarm Optimization for Reactive Power and Voltage Control Considering Voltage Stability - Application of PSO on reactive power and voltage control. [PDF]
2002 - Adaptive Control Utilising Neural Swarming - PSO is used to adjust the network weights, with the Adaptive Neural Swarming method, the controller could adapt to environmental changes. It is tested in a real-world task of controlling a simulated non-linear bioreactor. [PDF]
2000 - Cooperative Learning in Neural Networks using Particle Swarm Optimizers - A paper by Frans van den Bergh and Andries P. Engelbrecht, South Africa. The interesting point is that they split the input vectors to several sub-vectors, each which is optimized cooperatively in its own swarm.
2003 - Engineering optimization with particle swarm - PSO is used to solve engineering problems with multiple non-linear constraints. [PDF]
1998 - Matching Algorithms to Problems: An Experimental Test of the Particle Swarm... - A paper by Jame Kennedy and William Spears
1998 - Parameter Selection in Particle Swarm Optimization - A paper by Yuhui Shi and Russell C. Eberhart.
1995 - Particle Swarm Optimization - A concept for the optimization of nonlinear functions using particle swarm methodology by James Kennedy and Russell Eberhart. This is the first paper talking about PSO.
2003 - Particle swarm with extended memory for multiobjective optimization - multiobjective optimization with PSO. [PDF]
2001 - Practical Distribution State Estimation Using Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization - A hybrid PSO is proposed by introduction of the natural selection mechanism. The authors demonstrated hybrid PSO is better than original version on distribution state estimation problems. [PDF]
2003 - Swarm intelligence for permutation optimization: a case study on n-queens problem - PSO is modified to deal with permutation set. [PDF]
