Particle Competition and Cooperation (PCC) Python implementation
MSc Caio Carneloz made his Python implementation of the Particle Competition and Cooperation (PCC) model available on GitHub (pycc). Check it out if you want to use the algorithm on your data.
The MATLAB implementation is also available on GitHub, including a version with the main loop compiled in C (MEX) for faster execution.
The Particle Competiton and Cooperation original article is available here, and the accepted manuscript is available here.
Other articles and their respective implementation are available in the Publications section. If you need the code for the algorithms in other articles that are not available yet, please contact me and I’ll do my best to make it available as soon as possible.
