• Particle swarm optimization
• Unconstrained optimization
• Differential evolution algorithm

An algorithm called DE-PSO is proposed which incorporates concepts from DE and PSO, updating particles not only by DE operators but also by mechanisms of PSO. The proposed algorithm is tested on several benchmark functions. Numerical comparisons with different hybrid meta-heuristics demonstrate its effectiveness and efficiency.
