A parallel improved PSO algorithm with genetic operators for 2D inversion of resistivity data

In this paper, an improved particle swarm optimization technique known as elitist-mutated particle swarm optimization (EMPSO) was applied in the 2D electrical resistivity imaging, a complex and highly nonlinear optimization problem. The EMPSO enables …
