A Modified NM-PSO Method for Parameter Estimation Problems of Models

Pseudocode 1

Pseudo Codes of the proposed M-NM-PSO algorithm.
Initialization
 Generate particles of population size N N > n+1 .
Solution identification
 Arrange the particles in the order from good to bad.
NM Method
 Apply NM operator to the first n+1 particles and update the n+1 th particle.
PSO Method
 Apply PSO operator to update the N particles.
Selection
 Select the global best particle and the neighborhood best particle from the population.
Velocity Update
 Apply velocity updates to the N particles.
Go to step 2
 If the condition is not satisfied. Otherwise stop.
