About

Maintained by Ping-Yang ChenFirst published 2025-03-192 releasesCRAN page ↗

A fast and flexible general-purpose implementation of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Differential Evolution (DE) for solving global minimization problems is provided. It is designed to handle complex optimization tasks with nonlinear, non-differentiable, and multi-modal objective functions defined by users. There are five types of PSO variants: Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO, Eberhart & Kennedy, 1995) doi:10.1109/MHS.1995.494215, Quantum-behaved particle Swarm Optimization (QPSO, Sun et al., 2004) doi:10.1109/CEC.2004.1330875, Locally convergent rotationally invariant particle swarm optimization (LcRiPSO, Bonyadi & Michalewicz, 2014) doi:10.1007/s11721-014-0095-1, Competitive Swarm Optimizer (CSO, Cheng & Jin, 2015) doi:10.1109/TCYB.2014.2322602 and Double exponential particle swarm optimization (DExPSO, Stehlik et al., 2024) doi:10.1016/j.asoc.2024.111913. For the DE algorithm, six types in Storn, R. & Price, K. (1997) doi:10.1023/A:1008202821328 are included: DE/rand/1, DE/rand/2, DE/best/1, DE/best/2, DE/rand_to-best/1 and DE/rand_to-best/2.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("globpso", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-globpso

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-globpso

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-globpso

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
