Abstract


This paper proposes an Object Oriented Particle Swarm Framework (OOPSF) that can be used to apply particle swarm intelligence on different optimization problems. The framework is designed using object oriented paradigm and implemented using Java programming language as an Application Programming Interface (API). Within a single framework, OOPSF attempts to abstract and encapsulate the basic concepts of particle swarm optimization (PSO) along with some modifications that were proposed by different researchers. The proposed API benefits from advantages of object oriented design including abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance and code reuse; finally the paper is concluded with a case study to solve a regression problem using the proposed framework
