Detailed Description

template<class POT>
class eoLinearTopology< POT >

One of the local best strategies for particle swarm optimization.

Each particle has a fixed number of neighbours, ans the neighborhood is social. The topology is never modified during the flight.

Definition at line 41 of file eoLinearTopology.h.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class POT>
eoLinearTopology< POT >::eoLinearTopology ( unsigned  _neighborhoodSize  )  [inline]

Build the topology made of _neighborhoodSize neighborhoods.

Parameters:
_neighborhoods - The size of each neighborhood.

Definition at line 51 of file eoLinearTopology.h.


Member Function Documentation

template<class POT>
void eoLinearTopology< POT >::setup ( const eoPop< POT > &  _pop  )  [inline, virtual]

Build the neighborhoods contained in the topology.

Parameters:
_pop - The population used to build the neighborhoods. If it remains several particle (because _pop.size()neighborhoodSize !=0), there are inserted in the last neighborhood. So it may be possible to have a bigger neighborhood.

Implements eoTopology< POT >.

template<class POT>
unsigned eoLinearTopology< POT >::retrieveNeighborhoodByIndice ( unsigned  _indice  )  [inline]

Retrieve the neighboorhood of a particle.

Returns:
_indice - The particle indice (in the population)

template<class POT>
POT& eoLinearTopology< POT >::best ( unsigned  _indice  )  [inline, virtual]

Return the best informative of a particle.

Could be itself.

Parameters:
_indice - The indice of a particle in the population
Returns:
POT & - The best particle in the neighborhood of the particle whose indice is _indice

Implements eoTopology< POT >.
