Exploratory Toolkit for Evolutionary And Swarm−based Optimization

چکیده
Evolutionary optimization methods~namely, genetic algorithms, genetic programming, and evolution strategies~represent a category of non−traditional optimization algorithms drawing inspirations from the process of natural evolution. Particle swarm optimization represents another set of more recently developed algorithmic optimizers inspired by social behaviours of organisms such as birds [8] and social insects. These new evolutionary approaches in optimization are now entering the stage, and are thus far very successful in solving real−world optimization problems [12].

Research of Blind Signals Separation with Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimization Based on Mutual Information
Blind source separation technique separates mixed signals blindly without any information on the mixing system. In this paper, we have used two evolutionary algorithms, namely, genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization for blind source separation. In these techniques a novel fitness function that is based on the mutual information and high order statistics is proposed. In order to evalu...

This study proposes a modified version of cultural algorithms (CAs) which benefits from rule-based system for influence function. This rule-based system selects and applies the suitable knowledge source according to the distribution of the solutions. This is important to use appropriate influence function to apply to a specific individual, regarding to its role in the search process. This rule ...
متن کاملGENERALIZED FLEXIBILITY-BASED MODEL UPDATING APPROACH VIA DEMOCRATIC PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM FOR STRUCTURAL DAMAGE PROGNOSIS
This paper presents a new model updating approach for structural damage localization and quantification. Based on the Modal Assurance Criterion (MAC), a new damage-sensitive cost function is introduced by employing the main diagonal and anti-diagonal members of the calculated Generalized Flexibility Matrix (GFM) for the monitored structure and its analytical model. Then, ...
متن کاملParticle Swarm Optimization for Hydraulic Analysis of Water Distribution Systems
The analysis of flow in water-distribution networks with several pumps by the Content Model may be turned into a non-convex optimization uncertain problem with multiple solutions. Newton-based methods such as GGA are not able to capture a global optimum in these situations. On the other hand, evolutionary methods designed to use the population of individuals may find a global solution even for ...
