Quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization was proposed from the view of quantum world and based on the particle swarm optimization, which has been proved to outperform the traditional PSO. The Expansion-Contraction coefficient is the only parameter in QPSO, which has great influence on the global search ability and convergence of the particles. In this paper, two parameter control methods are proposed. Numerical experiments on the benchmark functions are presented.
