چکیده مقاله:

A new meta-heuristic method, based on Neuronal Communication (NC), is introduced in this article. The neuronal communication illustrates how data is exchanged between neurons in neural system. Actually, this pattern works efficiently in the nature. The present paper shows it is the same to find the global minimum. In addition, since few numbers of neurons participate in each step of the method, the cost of calculation is less than the other comparable meta-heuristic methods. Besides, gradient calculation and a continuous domain are not necessary for the process of the algorithm. In this article, some new weighting functions are introduced to improve the convergence of the algorithm. In the end, various benchmark functions and engineering problems are examined and the results are illustrated to show the capability, efficiency of the method. It is valuable to note that the average number of iterations for fifty independent runs of functions have been decreased by using Neuronal Communication algorithm in comparison to a majority of methods.

Feature Selection in Structural Health Monitoring Big Data Using a Meta-Heuristic Optimization Algorithm

This paper focuses on the processing of structural health monitoring (SHM) big data. Extracted features of a  structure are reduced using an optimization algorithm to find a minimal subset of salient features by removing noisy, irrelevant and redundant data. The PSO-Harmony algorithm is introduced for feature selection to enhance the capability of the proposed method for processing the  measure...

Introducing a new meta-heuristic algorithm based on See-See Partridge Chicks Optimization to solve dynamic optimization problems

The SSPCO (See-See Particle Chicks Optimization) is a type of swarm intelligence algorithm derived from the behavior of See-See Partridge. Although efficiency of this algorithm has been proven for solving static optimization problems, it has not yet been tested to solve dynamic optimization problems. Due to the nature of NP-Hard dynamic problems, this algorithm alone is not able to solve such o...

Ant Colony Optimization: A New Meta-Heuristic

Recently, a number of algorithms inspired by the foraging behavior of ant colonies have been applied to the solution of difficult discrete optimization problems. In this paper we put these algorithms in a common framework by defining the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) meta-heuristic. A couple of paradigmatic examples of applications of these novel meta-heuristic are given, as well as a brief ove...
