Development of a memetic clustering algorithm for optimal spectral histology: application to FTIR images of normal human colon.

چکیده
The coupling between Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) imaging and unsupervised classification is effective in revealing the different structures of human tissues based on their specific biomolecular IR signatures; thus the spectral histology of the studied samples is achieved. However, the most widely applied clustering methods in spectral histology are local search algorithms, which converge to a local optimum, depending on initialization. Multiple runs of the techniques estimate multiple different solutions. Here, we propose a memetic algorithm, based on a genetic algorithm and a k-means clustering refinement, to perform optimal clustering. In addition, this approach was applied to the acquired FTIR images of normal human colon tissues originating from five patients. The results show the efficiency of the proposed memetic algorithm to achieve the optimal spectral histology of these samples, contrary to k-means.

A NEW MEMETIC SWARM OPTIMIZATION FOR SPECTRAL LAYOUT DESIGN OF BRACED FRAMES
For most practical purposes, true topology optimization of a braced frame should be synchronized with its sizing. An integrated layout optimization is formulated here to simultaneously account for both member sizing and bracings’ topology in such a problem. Code-specific seismic design spectrum is applied to unify the earthquake excitation. The problem is solved for minimal structural weight un...

Introduction: Clustering of human brain is a very useful tool for diagnosis, treatment, and tracking of brain tumors. There are several methods in this category in order to do this. In this study, modified balanced iterative reducing and clustering using hierarchies (m-BIRCH) was introduced for brain activation clustering. This algorithm has an appropriate speed and good scalability in dealing ...

Spectral unmixing of hyperspectral images is one of the most important research fields in remote sensing. Recently, the direct use of spectral libraries in spectral unmixing is on increase. In this way which is called sparse unmixing, we do not need an endmember extraction algorithm and the number determination of endmembers priori. Since spectral libraries usually contain highly correlated s...
متن کاملAn improved memetic algorithm to minimize earliness–tardiness on a single batch processing machine
In this research, a single batch processing machine scheduling problem with minimization of total earliness and tardiness as the objective function is investigated.We first formulate the problem as a mixed integer linear programming model. Since the research problem is shown to be NP-hard, an improved memetic algorithmis proposed to efficiently solve the problem. To further enhance the memetic ...
