in this paper, we propose a novel algorithm to enhance the noisy speech in the framework of dual-channel speech enhancement. the new method is a hybrid optimization algorithm, which employs the  combination of  the  conventional θ-pso and the shuffled sub-swarms particle optimization (sspso) technique. it is known that the θ-pso algorithm has better optimization performance than standard pso al...

A new methodology for Emergent System Identification is proposed in this paper. The new method applies the self-organizing Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) functional networks, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Genetic Programming (GP) that is effective in identifying complex dynamic systems. The focus of the paper will be on how Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is applied within Grou...

The hospital customer classification is very important for the integration and allocation of hospital resources, can greatly enhance the market competitiveness of the hospital. Support Vector Machine (SVM) is an approach to solve classification problem by using optimization method. Selecting different kernel parameters can construct different classifiers, meanwhile parameters decide their learn...

In nature, the organisms have a limited lifespan and they grow older with time. Aging is an essential process which leads to the maintenance of species diversity in environment. Every group of species is lead by a leader. As the lifespan of every organism is limited, at a certain point of its life time, the organism deteriorates and become inefficient to lead its group. In this situation, a new...

Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) can be used in order to design Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms that work, in some cases, considerably better than the human-designed ones. By analyzing the evolutionary process of designing PSO algorithms, we can identify different swarm phenomena (such as patterns or rules) that can give us deep insights about the swarm’s behaviour. The rules that hav...

According to researches, activation was a minor strategy of improving Particle Swarm Algorithm. For proofing the possibility of activation strategy could be a main strategy for improving Particle Swarm Algorithm, this article adopt the concept of mutation in Genetic Algorithm to improve Particle Swarm Optimization. The experimental results show three advantages for the activation strategies. Fi...

Quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (QPSO) algorithm is a variant of the traditional particle swarm optimization (PSO). The QPSO that was originally developed for continuous search spaces outperforms the traditional PSO in search ability. This paper analyzes the main factors that impact the search ability of QPSO and converts the particle movement formula to the mutation condition by in...

The control of nonlinear chaotic system and the estimation of parameters is a vital issue in nonlinear science. Studies on parameter estimation for chaotic systems have been investigated recently. A variant of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) known as Chaotic Multi Swarm Particle Swarm Optimization (CMS-PSO) is proposed which is inspired from the metaphor of ecological co-habitation of species...

This paper presents a comparative analysis of continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) control based on adaptive control and optimal tuning of PID control based on particle swarm optimization. In the design of adaptive control, Model reference adaptive control (MRAC) scheme is used, in which the adaptation law have been developed by MIT rule & Lyapunov’s rule. In PSO control parameters of PID c...

In order to have clarity in the satellite images we have used Particle Swarm Optimization technique. When incorporated with traditional clustering algorithms, problems such as local optima and sensitivity to initialization, are reduced, thus exploring a greater area using global search. This segmented image is further classified using Kappa coefficient. Keywords— Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO...
