Inspired by analyzing principle of PSO, some non-linear strategies for decreasing inertia weight (DIW) are proposed based on the existing linear DIW (LDIW), in this paper. Then a power function is designed to unify them. Four benchmark functions are used to evaluate these strategies on the PSO performance and select the best one. The experimental results show that for most continuous optimization...
