solve by traditional methods. Genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimisation (PSO) are both population …-based heuristic search methods, which are well suited for mining association rules. GA and PSO both have their unique features and … limitations. A hybrid method combining both genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimisation called hybrid GA/PSO (GPSO) is …
