A multi-swarm particle swarm optimization algorithm based on dynamical topology and purposeful detecting

•An entire population is divided into many parallel evolved sub-swarms in the early stage.•A dynamic sub-swarm number strategy (DNS) periodically reduces the number of sub-swarms aiming to balance the exploration and the exploitation ability.•A sub-swarm regrouping strategy (SRS) regrouping these su...
