Modified particle swarm optimization algorithm for variable selection in MLR and PLS modeling: QSAR studies of antagonism of angiotensin II antagonists

A version of modified particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm has been proposed. The PSO algorithm has been modified to adopt to the discrete combinatorial optimization problem and reduce the probability of sinking into local optima. In the modified PSO algorithm, the velocity represents the pro...
