hybrid ann with invasive weed optimization algorithm, a new technique for prediction of gold and silver in zarshuran gold deposit, iran

Mineralogy and fluid inclusion investigations in the Zarshuran gold deposit, north of Takab, NW Iran

The Zarshuran Carlin-type gold deposit is located about 30 km north of Takab, West-Azarbaidjan Province, NW Iran. Interaction between the ore-forming fluids and the host carbonates and shales resulted in development of the decarbonatization, argillic, alunite, silicic, and sulfide alteration zones in the study area. Based on mesoscopic and microscopic studies on drill core samples, gold mineral...

MODELLING THE As-Au ASSOCIATION IN HYDROTHERMAL GOLD MINERALIZATION: EXAMPLE OF ZARSHURAN DEPOSIT, NW IRAN

A New Approach for Text Documents Classification with Invasive Weed Optimization and Naive Bayes Classifier

With the fast increase of the documents, using Text Document Classification (TDC) methods has become a crucial matter. This paper presented a hybrid model of Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO) and Naive Bayes (NB) classifier (IWO-NB) for Feature Selection (FS) in order to reduce the big size of features space in TDC. TDC includes different actions such as text processing, feature extraction, form...

A hybrid DEA-based K-means and invasive weed optimization for facility location problem

In this paper, instead of the classical approach to the multi-criteria location selection problem, a new approach was presented based on selecting a portfolio of locations. First, the indices affecting the selection of maintenance stations were collected. The K-means model was used for clustering the maintenance stations. The optimal number of clusters was calculated through the Silhou...

A Hybrid Algorithm based on Invasive Weed Optimization and Particle Swarm Optimization for Global Optimization

In this paper, an effective combination of two Metaheuristic algorithms, namely Invasive Weed Optimization and the Particle Swarm Optimization, has been proposed. This hybridization called as HIWOPSO, consists of two main phases of Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). Invasive weed optimization is the natureinspired algorithm which is inspired by colonial beha...

DETERMINATION OF THE OPTIMUM CONDITIONS FOR RECOVERY OF GOLD FROM ZARSHURAN REFRACTORY GOLD SULFIDE ORE

The orthogonal array design has been used to determine the optimum conditions for gold recovery from Zarshuran refractory gold sulfide ore (Iran) by direct cyanidation and roasting-cyanidation. The Taguchi method was used as the experimental design to determine the optimum conditions of dissolution behavior of gold with cyanidation and roasting-cyanidation from Zarshuran refractory gold ore . T...
