A Preprocessing Phase for the Evolutionary Clustering Search
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper approaches a recent hybrid evolutionary algorithm, called Evolutionary Clustering Search (ECS), that proposes a way of detecting promising areas combining an evolutionary algorithm and a iterative clustering. The search strategy become more aggressive in such detected areas by applying local search. In this paper, we developed a preprocessing phase for the ECS applying a locationallocation algorithm. The proposed approach is validated solving the Prize Collecting Travelling Salesman Problem.

A partition-based algorithm for clustering large-scale software systems
Clustering techniques are used to extract the structure of software for understanding, maintaining, and refactoring. In the literature, most of the proposed approaches for software clustering are divided into hierarchical algorithms and search-based techniques. In the former, clustering is a process of merging (splitting) similar (non-similar) clusters. These techniques suffered from the drawba...

Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA) is considered as a prime meta-heuristic algorithm to find the general optimal solution in optimization problems. This paper presents a use of ICA for automatic clustering of huge unlabeled data sets. By using proper structure for each of the chromosomes and the ICA, at run time, the suggested method (ACICA) finds the optimum number of clusters while optim...

Due to the resource constraint and dynamic parameters, reducing energy consumption became the most important issues of wireless sensor networks topology design. All proposed hierarchy methods cluster a WSN in different cluster layers in one step of evolutionary algorithm usage with complicated parameters which may lead to reducing efficiency and performance. In fact, in WSNs topology, increasin...
متن کاملMissing data imputation in multivariable time series data
Multivariate time series data are found in a variety of fields such as bioinformatics, biology, genetics, astronomy, geography and finance. Many time series datasets contain missing data. Multivariate time series missing data imputation is a challenging topic and needs to be carefully considered before learning or predicting time series. Frequent researches have been done on the use of diffe...
