ROOT does already have support for genetic algorithms so i was wondering why there is no support for particle swarm optimization [1] yet. Maybe someone else already wrote some software for ROOT though i couldn’t find one yet.
This is just a start to get some feedback. You could either compile example.cpp or run ith with
.x example.cpp+The folder has an output folder with a video which shows how the particles find the best place.
It implements two problems which aren’t that easy to solve with classical optimizer.
Any kind of feedback is asked for.
