To reduce the implementation complexity of a belief propagation (BP) based low-density parity-check (LDPC) decoder, shuffled BP decoding schedules, which serialize the decoding process by dividing a complete parallel message-passing iteration into a sequence of sub-iterations, have been proposed. The so-called group horizontal shuffled BP algorithm partitions the check nodes of the code graph i...

Standard particle swarm optimization is easy to fall into local optimum and has the problem of low precision. To solve these problems, the paper proposes an effective approach, called particle swarm optimization based on multiple swarms and opposition-based learning, which divides swarm into two subswarms. The 1st sub-swarm employs PSO evolution model in order to hold the self-learning ability;...

This paper proposes a TSK-type Neuro-Fuzzy system tuned with a novel learning algorithm. The proposed algorithm used an improved version of the standard Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm, it employs several sub-swarms to explore the search space more efficiently. Each particle in a sub-swarm correct her position based on the best other positions, and the useful information is exchanged amon...

Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) are a set of probabilistic optimization algorithms based on an analogy between natural biological systems and engineered systems. In this paper, the computational performance a set of specific EAs (specifically, the Genetic Algorithm, Evolutionary Programming, Particle Swarm Optimization, Ant Colony Optimization and Shuffled Complex Evolution Algorithm) are compare...

Error Correcting Output Codes reveal an efficient strategy in dealing with multi-class classification problems. According to this technique, a multi-class problem is decomposed into several binary ones. On these created sub-problems we apply binary classifiers and then, by combining the acquired solutions, we are able to solve the initial multiclass problem. In this paper we consider the optimi...

The COVID-19 pandemic and competitiveness pressure the pharmaceutical companies to acquire systems designed be as reliable possible. present paper aims optimize design of a plant through reliability allocation heterogeneous components under constraints. problem is solved by resorting three nature-inspired algorithms artificial intelligence (AI): grey wolf optimizer (GWO), shuffled frog-leaping ...

This paper presents a novel symbiotic multi-swarm particle swarm optimization (SMPSO) based on our previous proposed multi-swarm cooperative particle swarm optimization. In SMPSO, the population is divided into several identical sub-swarms and a center communication strategy is used to transfer the information among all the sub-swarms. The information sharing among all the sub-swarms can help t...

This paper discusses how concepts derived from nature can be applied successfully to improve the performance of the rule mining process. These concepts are derived from swarm intelligence and behavior of frogs. Swarm Intelligence (SI) is the property of a system whereby the collective behavior of agents interacting locally with their environment causes coherent functional global patterns to eme...

This paper presents a method to employ particle swarm optimization in a split architecture injected with a plain ‘attractor’ configuration. This is achieved by splitting the input vector into two even sub-vectors, each of which is optimized in its own swarm. Then, a plain ‘attractor’ is injected into each swarm. The application of this technique to neural network training is investigated. Key-W...
