Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)

Canonical implementation of the particle swarm optimization method as outlined in [0] in chapter II, section A.

The rayon feature enables parallel computation of the cost function. This can be beneficial for expensive cost functions, but may cause a drop in performance for cheap cost functions. Be sure to benchmark both parallel and sequential computation.

Requirements on the optimization problem

The optimization problem is required to implement CostFunction.

Implementations

impl<P, F> ParticleSwarm<P, F, StdRng>

where P: Clone + SyncAlias + ArgminSub<P, P> + ArgminMul<F, P> + ArgminRandom + ArgminZeroLike, F: ArgminFloat,

pub fn new(bounds: (P, P), num_particles: usize) -> Self

Construct a new instance of ParticleSwarm

Takes the number of particles and bounds on the search space as inputs. bounds is a tuple (lower_bound, upper_bound), where lower_bound and upper_bound are of the same type as the position of a particle (P) and of the same length as the problem as dimensions.

The inertia weight on velocity and the social and cognitive acceleration factors can be adapted with with_inertia_factor, with_cognitive_factor and with_social_factor, respectively.

The weights and acceleration factors default to:

• inertia: 1/(2 * ln(2))
• cognitive: 0.5 + ln(2)
• social: 0.5 + ln(2)

Example

let pso: ParticleSwarm<_, f64, _> = ParticleSwarm::new((lower_bound, upper_bound), 40);

impl<P, F, R0> ParticleSwarm<P, F, R0>

where P: Clone + SyncAlias + ArgminSub<P, P> + ArgminMul<F, P> + ArgminRandom + ArgminZeroLike, F: ArgminFloat, R0: Rng,

pub fn with_rng_generator<R1: Rng>( self, generator: R1 ) -> ParticleSwarm<P, F, R1>

Set the random number generator

Defaults to rand::rngs::StdRng::from_entropy()

Example

let pso: ParticleSwarm<_, f64, _> =
    ParticleSwarm::new((lower_bound, upper_bound), 40)
    .with_rng_generator(rand_xoshiro::Xoroshiro128Plus::seed_from_u64(1729));

where P: Clone + SyncAlias + ArgminSub<P, P> + ArgminMul<F, P> + ArgminRandom + ArgminZeroLike, F: ArgminFloat, R: Rng,

pub fn with_inertia_factor(self, factor: F) -> Result<Self, Error>

Set inertia factor on particle velocity

Defaults to 1/(2 * ln(2)).

Example

let pso: ParticleSwarm<_, f64, _> =
    ParticleSwarm::new((lower_bound, upper_bound), 40).with_inertia_factor(0.5)?;

pub fn with_cognitive_factor(self, factor: F) -> Result<Self, Error>

Set cognitive acceleration factor

Defaults to 0.5 + ln(2).

Example

let pso: ParticleSwarm<_, f64, _> =
    ParticleSwarm::new((lower_bound, upper_bound), 40).with_cognitive_factor(1.1)?;

pub fn with_social_factor(self, factor: F) -> Result<Self, Error>

Set social acceleration factor

Defaults to 0.5 + ln(2).

Example

let pso: ParticleSwarm<_, f64, _> =
    ParticleSwarm::new((lower_bound, upper_bound), 40).with_social_factor(1.1)?;
