Accelerated Particle Swarm Optimization (APSO)

This demo shows how the accelerated particle swarm optimization works.

You are now following this Submission

The accelerated particle swarm optimization (APSO) uses only the global best
without individual best solutions and reduced randomness. This demo solves a function of D=30 dimensions.
It is straightforward to extend it to solve other functions and optimization problems.
