pso - a simple particle swarm optimization
This is a basic particle swarm optimization I wrote as an exercise for university. It is implemented in simple and clean standard C. Included are 4 different optimization problems: sphere, rosenbrock, rastrigin, schwefel.
Particles leaving the search space are evaluated to positive infinity.
Installation
Clone the repository.
git clone https://muhq.space/software/pso.git
