Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) In this paper, a processor which realizes the parallel calculations of Particle Swarm Optimizer (PSO) is proposed. As the main operations in PSO, there are initialization of particles, calculation of evaluation values, update of the best evaluation values, update of velocity and position vectors, and so on. In our processor, these operations are executed by parallel circuits. Also, in order to adapt various objective functions, the calculation of evaluation values are executed by software program using a RISC-type processor. Performing the experiments, the results for the evaluation of the circuit scale by logic synthesis and the measurement of the clock cycles by HDL simulator are shown.
