Abstract

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is an evolutionary algorithm based on the behavior of social animals. Its key advantage is its computa- tional efficiency compared to related techniques such as genetic algorithm (GA). Use of a modified PSO algorithm in selecting an optimal array of pollution prevention techniques for clay brick production is described. The model is formulated as a multi-constraint knapsack optimization problem. The optimization technique used in the study is a binary PSO augmented with a GA-based mutation operator.
