cementation factor is a critical parameter, which affects water saturation calculation. in carbonate rocks, due to the sensitivity of this parameter to pore type, water saturation estimation has associated with high inaccuracy. hence developing a reliable mathematical strategy to determine these properties accurately is of crucial importance. to this end, genetic algorithm pattern search is emp...

This paper presents a particle swarm optimization (PSO)-inspired multi-robot search application based on an innovative software system for collaborative robotic applications. The system has a multi-layer architecture which provides lowand high-level interfaces to the robots, resource (robots) management, security policies and concurrent robot access. The main result is the successful testing of...

Financial health of many organizations now-a-days is being affected by investment in software and their cost estimation. Therefore, to provide effective cost estimation models are the most complex activity in software engineering fields. This paper presents a fuzzy clustering and optimization model for software cost estimation. The proposed model uses Pearson product-moment correlation coeffici...

in this paper, a comprehensive model is proposed to design a network for multi-period, multi-echelon, and multi-product inventory controlled the supply chain. various marketing strategies and guerrilla marketing approaches are considered in the design process under the static competition condition. the goal of the proposed model is to efficiently respond to the customers’ demands in the presenc...

In this paper, we describe a systematic multi-objective problem solving approach, simulataneosly minimizing two conflicting goals average surface roughness ‘Ra’ and build time ‘T ’, for object manufacturing in FDM process by usage of evolutionary algorithms. Popularly used multi-objective genetic algorithm NSGA-II and recently proposed multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) algorit...

In this paper, we illustrate a novel optimization approach based on Multi-objective Particle Swarm Optimization (MOPSO) and Fuzzy Ant Colony Optimization (FACO). The basic idea is to combine these two techniques using the best particle of the Fuzzy Ant algorithm and integrate it as the best local Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), to formulate a new approach called hybrid MOPSO with FACO (H-MOP...

Construction claims are normally affected by a large number of complex and interrelated factors. It is highly desirable for the parties to a dispute to know with some certainty how the case would be resolved if it were taken to court. The use of artificial neural networks can be a cost-effective technique to help to predict the outcome of construction claims, on the basis of characteristics of ...
