Chaotic Quantum Behaved Particle Swarm Optimization for Multiobjective Optimization in Habitability Studies

Abstract: In this paper, based on the Quantum-behaved Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm, we evolve the algorithm to optimize a multiobjective optimization problem, namely the Cobb Douglas Habitability function which is based on CES production functions in Economics. We also propose some changes to the Quantum-behaved Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm to mitigate the problem of the algorithm prematurely converging and show the results of the proposed changes to the Quantum-behaved Particle Swarm Optimization.
