Research on distributed task planning model for multi-autonomous underwater vehicle (MAUV). A scroll time domain quantum artificial bee colony (STDQABC) optimization algorithm is proposed to solve the multi-AUV optimal task planning scheme. In the uncertain marine environment, the rolling time domain control technique is used to realize a numerical optimization in a narrowed time range. Rolling...

An information retrieval system highly relies on document analysis/ retrieval system. It includes numerous processing stages such as feature extraction, semantic representation, dimensionality reduction and similarity measure. Semantic representation aids for providing a better description to the documents. However, the probability of getting increased dimension for semantic descriptors is high...

Swarm intelligence is a research branch that models the population of interacting agents or swarms that are able to self-organize. An ant colony, a flock of birds or an immune system is a typical example of a swarm system. Bees’ swarming around their hive is another example of swarm intelligence. Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) Algorithm is an optimization algorithm based on the intelligent behavio...

In this paper an overview of the areas where the Bee Colony Optimization (BCO) and its variants are applied have been given. Bee System was identified by Sato and Hagiwara in 1997 and the Bee Colony Optimization (BCO) was identified by Lucic and Teodorovic in 2001. BCO has emerged as a specialized class of Swarm Intelligence with bees as agents. It is an emerging field for researchers in the fi...

A new meta-heuristic algorithm is proposed for optimal design of reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures subject to combinations of gravity and lateral static loads based on ACI 318-08 design code. In the present work, artificial bee colony algorithm (ABCA) is focused and an improved ABCA (IABCA) is proposed to achieve the optimization task. The total cost of the RC frames is minimized during...

Tuning of the system and the controller parameters always constituted an important part of the control applications in power system. These processes need complex mathematical calculations including derivative elements classically. However, these nowadays accomplished more easily and in shorter times, using by iterative optimization approaches such as evolutionary or swarm intelligence based met...

Artificial Bee colony is one of the most efficient optimizing technique introduced so far. Artificial Bee Colony simulates the brilliant behavior honey bee swarm. Considering the environmental impacts that grow from the emission produced by the conventional fuel power plants, the economic dispatch that minimizes only the total fuel cost can no longer be considered as single objective function. ...

In this paper, a compact Articial Bee Colony optimization method (cABC) for applying to the topology optimization of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is presented. The purpose of compact algorithms is to address to the computational requirements in the limited resources of hardware devices such as memory size or low price. A probabilistic representation random of the collection behavior of socia...
