An international research team has developed a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm based on quantum computing for real-time maximum power point tracking (MPPT) implementation in PV systems.

The knowledge of track performance is introduced to construct heuristic function to guide the unmanned ... Comparison of parallel genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization for real-time UAV ...

A particular set of probabilistic inference algorithms common in robotics involve Sequential Monte Carlo methods, also known as "particle filtering," which approximates using repeated random sampling.
