. In this paper, a new particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed for solving a team formation optimization … problem by minimizing the communication cost among experts. The proposed algorithm is called by improved particle optimization … the consistency of the capabilities and the skills to perform the required project. Also, the proposed algorithm is …

–learning-based optimization is a meta-heuristic algorithm which does not have any algorithm-specific parameters that are to be tuned in comparison … to other meta-heuristics. Therefore, it can be considered as an efficient algorithm. As best student of the class is … optimum. To avoid this limitation, a new local search technique followed by a mutation strategy (from genetic algorithm) is …
