A New Optimization Based on Parallelizing Hybrid PSOGSA Algorithm

Abstract

This study suggests a new metaheuristic algorithm for global optimization, based on parallel hybridizing the swarm optimization(PSO) andGravitational search algorithm (GSA). Subgroups of the population are formed by dividing the swarm’s community. Communication between the subsets can be developed by adding strategies for the mutation. Twenty-three benchmark functions are used to test its performance to verify the feasibility of the proposed algorithm. Compared with the PSO, GSA, and parallel PSO (PPSO), the findings of the proposed algorithm reveal that the proposed PPSOGSA achieves higher precision than other competitor algorithms.
