in this paper, a chaotic particle swarm optimization with mutation-based classifier particle swarm optimization is proposed to classifypatterns of different classes in the feature space. the introduced mutation operators and chaotic sequences allows us to overcomethe problem of early convergence into a local minima associated with particle swarm optimization algorithms. that is, the mutationope...

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) has been successfully applied to solve various optimization problems. Recently, a state-based algorithm called multi-state particle swarm optimization (MSPSO) has been proposed to solve discrete combinatorial optimization problems. The algorithm operates based on a simplified mechanism of transition between two states. However, the MSPSO algorithm has to deal w...

the dogleg severity is one of the most important parameters in directional drilling. improvement of these indicators actually means choosing the best conditions for the directional drilling in order to reach the target point. selection of high levels of the dogleg severity actually means minimizing well trajectory, but on the other hand, increases fatigue in drill string, increases torque and d...

in this work, by using the particle swarm optimization the electron raman scattering for square double quantum wells is optimized. for this purpose, by combining the particle swarm algorithm together with the numerical solution procedures for equations, and also the perturbation theory we find the optimal structure that maximizes the electron raman scattering. application of this algorithm to t...

In optimizing the particle swarm optimization (PSO) that inevitable existence problem of prematurity and the local convergence, this paper base on this aspects is put forward a kind of modified particle swarm optimization algorithm, take the gradient descent method (BP algorithm) as a particle swarm operator embedded in particle swarm algorithm, and at the same time use to attenuation wall (Dam...

in this paper, a stochastic cell formation problem is studied using queuing theory framework and considering reliability. since cell formation problem is np-hard, two algorithms based on genetic and modified particle swarm optimization (mpso) algorithms are developed to solve the problem. for generating initial solutions in these algorithms, a new heuristic method is developed, which always cre...

one of the main aims of water resource planners and managers is to estimate and predict the parameters of groundwater quality so that they can make managerial decisions. in this regard, there have many models developed, proposing better management in order to maintain water quality. most of these models require input parameters that are either hardly available or time-consuming and expensive to...

-Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is undoubtedly one of the most widely used swarm intelligence algorithm. Generally, each particle is assigned an initial value randomly. In this paper an improved PSO clustering algorithm based on affinity propagation (APPSO) is proposed which provides new ideas and methods for cluster analysis. Firstly the proposed algorithm get initial cluster centers by aff...
