In the propose algorthm, the upatng metho of partcle s prevous best poston an swarm s global best poston are performe n each menson of soluton vector to avo loss some components that have move closer to the global optmal soluton n the vector. Fve test functons are use to test the performance of. The results of experments show that the propose technque can ncrease versty of populaton an converge more raply than other bnary algorthms. Keywors: Quantum-behave Partcle Swarm Optmzaton, Bnary, Cooperatve Approach, Test Functons.. Introucton Partcle Swarm Optmzaton (PSO) s an evolutonary computaton technque evelope by Dr. Eberhart an Dr. Kenney n 995 [], nspre by socal behavor of br flockng or fsh schoolng. The optmal soluton s obtane by exchangng nformaton between nvuals. owever, the algorthm cannot converges to the global mnmum pont wth probablty one uner sutable conton []. Jun Sun et al have propose a global convergence-guarantee PSO algorthm [3], Quantum-behave Partcle Swarm Optmzaton (QPSO) algorthm, whch s nspre by quantum mechancs. It has been shown that QPSO outperforms PSO on several aspects, such as smple evoluton equatons, more few control parameters, fast convergence spee, smple operaton an so on [4,5]. In 997, Kenney propose the bnary verson of PSO () [6], an Jun Sun et al propose the bnary verson of QPSO () n 7 [7]. Ths paper wll focus on evelopng the bnary verson of QPSO wth cooperatve metho (). In the propose algorthm, each menson of partcle s new soluton vector replaces n turn the corresponng menson of partcle s prevous best poston an swarm s global best poston to calculate the ftness value. The rest structure of ths paper s as follows. In secton, a bref ntroucton of the s presente. The s escrbe n secton 3. Next, the novel s epcte n secton 4. Then the experment results are gven n secton 5. Fnally, the concluson s put forwar n secton 6.. Bnary Partcle Swarm Optmzaton In PSO, the populaton wth nvuals, whch s treate as a partcle, s calle a swarm X n the D- mensonal space. The poston vector an velocty vector of partcle at the generaton t represente as x t) ( x, x,, x ( )) an ( D t ( v ( t), v,, vd( t v )).The partcle moves accorng to the equatons: v ( t ) wv cr ( x ) () c r ( gbest x ) x ( t ) x v ( t ) () Where,,, ;,,, D, w s the nerta weght, whose value s typcally setup to vary lnearly from.9 to.4. c an c are calle the acceleraton coeffcents whch usually are set as c c. r an r are ranom number unformly strbute n (,).Vector (,,, D) s the best prevous poston of partcle wth the name personal best poston( ), whle the global best poston( gbest ), gbest ( gbest, gbest,, gbest D), s the best partcle poston among all the partcles n the populaton.

Bnary Quantum-behave Partcle Swarm Optmzaton 3. Quantum-behave Partcle Swarm Optmzaton In PSO algorthm, the state of partcle s epcte by ts poston vector an velocty vector, whch etermne the trajectory of the partcle. The partcle moves along a etermne trajectory n Newtonan mechancs, but ths s not the case n quantum mechancs. In quantum worl, the term trajectory s meanngless, because poston an velocty of a partcle cannot be etermne smultaneously accorng to uncertanty prncple. Therefore, f nvual partcles n a PSO system have quantum behavor, the PSO algorthm s boun to work n a fferent fashon. In quantum tme-space framework, Jun Sun et al. ntrouce QPSO algorthm. The equatons are as follows: mbest (4) (,,, D) p x ( ) gbest (5) ( t ) p mbest x *ln( ) (6) u where s a ranom number unformly strbute n (,). mbest s mean best poston of the populaton. Parameter s calle the Contracton-Expanson coeffcent, whch can be tune to control the convergence spee of the algorthm. From the results of stochastc smulaton [9], t can be conclue that n QPSO, when. 78, the partcles wll converge. In the process of teraton, s ece by the ranom number, when t s bgger than.5, mnus sgn ( - ) s propose, others plus sgn ( + ) s propose. 3. Bnary Quantum-behave Partcle Swarm Optmzaton In ths secton, a screte bnary verson of QPSO () s propose. Because the teraton equatons of QPSO are far fferent from those of PSO, the methoology of oes not apply to QPSO. In QPSO, there are no veloctes an trajectores concepts but poston an stance. In, the poston of the partcle s represente as a bnary strng. The stance s efne as the ammng stance between two bnary strngs. That s X Y ( X, Y) (7) Where X an Y are two bnary strngs an represent two postons. The functon () s to get the ammng stance between X an Y. The ammng stance s the count of bts fferent n the two strngs. The jth bt of the mbest s etermne by the states of the jth bts of all partcles n. If more partcles take on at the jth bt of ther own, the jth bts of mbest wll be ; otherwse the bt wll be. owever, f half of the partcles take on at the jth bt of ther, the jth bt of mbest wll be set ranomly to be or, wth probablty.5 for ether state. In, the pont operaton on mult-pont crossover operaton on p s obtane by crossover an gbest. Frstly make one-pont or an gbest to generate two offsprng. Then ranomly select one of the offsprng an output t as the pont Conser teratve Eq. (6) an transform t as b ( x, p ) ( x, mbest) ln( ) (8) u We can obtan the new strng x by the transformaton n whch each bt n p s mutate wth the probablty compute by b l c (9) b f l Where l s the length of the th menson of partcle. In the process of teraton, f ran () c, the corresponng bt n the poston of partcle wll be reverse, otherwse remans t. p. Copyrght (c) 3 Internatonal Journal of Computer Scence Issues.

If the current objectve functon value s better than that of an gbest, then upate an gbest ; Step 5 Repeat step ~4 untl the stoppng crteron s satsfe or reaches the gven maxmal teraton. 4. Bnary Quantum-behave Partcle Swarm Optmzaton wth Cooperatve Approach As an escrbe, each partcle represents a complete soluton vector for the objectve functon f ( X ) f X, X,, X N. Each upate step s also performe on a full D-mensonal vector. Then t may be appear the possblty that some menson n the soluton vector have move closer to the global optmum, whle others move away from the global optmum. Whereas the objectve functon value of the soluton vector s worse than the former value. an take the new soluton vector for a complete vector an neglect the eterorate components urng the teratons. As long as the current objectve functon value s better than the former value, then upate an gbest. Therefore, the current soluton vector can be gve up n next teraton an the valuable nformaton of the soluton vector s lost unknowngly. In orer to make full use of the benefcal nformaton, the cooperatve metho [,] s ntrouce to. In the propose metho, we expect that the operaton can avo the unesrable behavor, whch s a case of takng two steps forwar (some menson mprove), an one step back (some menson eterorate). 4. Cooperatve Approach We expect that once for every tme a component n the vector has been upate, resultng n much qucker feeback. Thus, a cooperatve metho for ong just ths s presente. In the new metho each menson of the new soluton vector replaces n turn the corresponng menson of an gbest, an then compare the new objectve functon value to ece whether to upate an gbest. The process s as follows: Step For each partcle, ntalze c ; cgbest gbest, Step For each menson of partcle, replace the menson of c an cgbest by the corresponng menson of the partcle; Step 3 Evaluate the new objectve functon value of c an cgbest, an compare them wth the objectve functon value of an gbest. If the current objectve functon value s better than that of an gbest, then upate an gbest ; Step 4 Repeat step ~3 untl all the menson of the partcle s compare. 4. Wth above mofcatons, the teraton process of s escrbe step-by-step below. Step Intalze an array of bnary bts for all partcles, partcle s personal best postons an swarm s global best poston gbest ; Step Upate the partcle s new poston x by ; Step 3 Evaluate the objectve functon value of the partcle, an compare them wth the objectve functon value of an gbest. If the current objectve functon value s better than that of an gbest, then upate an gbest ; Step 4 Use cooperatve strategy to upate an gbest ; Copyrght (c) 3 Internatonal Journal of Computer Scence Issues.
