Based on the combination of the particle swarm algorithm and multiplier penalty function method for the constraint conditions, this paper proposes an improved hybrid particle swarm optimization algorithm which is used to solve nonlinear constraint optimization problems. The algorithm converts nonlinear constraint function into no-constraints nonlinear problems by constructing the multiplier pen...

This paper describes a method for automatically imitating a particular facial expression in an avatar through a hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization – Tabu Search algorithm. The muscular structures of the facial expressions are measured by Ekman and Friesen’s Facial Action Coding System (FACS). Using a neutral expression as a reference, the minute movements of the Action Units, used in FACS, are ...

This article presents a hybrid evolutionary algorithm (PSABC) based on Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). Both of the algorithms are co-operative, population-based global search swarm intelligence met heuristics. The core of this algorithm is using PSO to optimize the fitness value of population in ABC. For Evaluation purpose, the proposed algorithm is tested on ...

for a uniform distribution of water, decrease in water waste and decrease in erosion of soil, it is important that a land be prepared with proper slopes along its length as well as width. the aim of leveling is to create appropriate slopes for irrigation and drainage on the lands that were not already properly levelled and of the same time creating the level surface with a minimum transport of ...

This paper presents Chemo-tactic PSO-DE (CPSO-DE) optimization algorithm combined with Lagrange Relaxation method (LR) for solving Unit Commitment (UC) problem. The proposed approach employs Chemo-tactic PSO-DE algorithm for optimal settings of Lagrange multipliers. It provides high-quality performance and reaches global solution and is a hybrid heuristic algorithm based on Bacterial Foraging O...

in this paper, the optimal design of a three phase surface mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor has been done by particle swarm optimization and bees algorithm. this machine has been designed for high speed applications, and an epoxy and glass fiber bandage is used for permanent magnet protection against centrifugal forces. the optimization has been done by new design equations to improve...

dynamic economic load dispatch is one of the most important roles of power generation’s operation and control. it determines the optimal controls of production of generator units with predicted load demand over a certain period of time. economic dispatch at minimum production cost is one of the most important subjects in the power network’s operation, which is a complicated nonlinear constraine...
