What is python3-pyswarms

python3-pyswarms is:

PySwarms is an extensible research toolkit for particle swarm optimization (PSO) in Python.

It is intended for swarm intelligence researchers, practitioners, and students who prefer a high-level declarative interface for implementing PSO in their problems. PySwarms enables basic optimization with PSO and interaction with swarm optimizations.

Features:

  • High-level module for Particle Swarm Optimization
  • Built-in objective functions to test optimization algorithms
  • Plotting environment for cost histories and particle movement
  • Hyperparameter search tools to optimize swarm behaviour

This package contains the Python 3.x version of PySwarms.
