A model of wavelet neural network (WNN) using a new evolutionary learning algorithm is proposed in this paper. This new evolutionary learning algorithm is based on a hybrid of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and gradient descent algorithm (GD), and is thus called HGDPSO. The Particle Swarm Optimizer has previously been used to train neural networks and generally met with success. The advantag...

Wavelet neural network (WNN) is a combination of wavelet analysis and neural network and has the strong fault tolerance, the strong anti-jamming and the strong adaptive ability. However, WNN is likely to trap local minimum and premature convergence. According to these shortcomings, particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is applied to wavelet neural network (WNN) and has good effect. This p...

In this study, we propose a novel method for medical problem, it is the integration of particle swarm optimization (PSO) and decision tree (C4.5) named PSO + C4.5 algorithm. To evaluate the effectiveness of PSO + C4.5 algorithm, it is implemented on 5 different data sets of life sciences obtained from UCI machine learning databases. Moreover, the results of PSO + C4.5 implementation are compare...

Vibration based techniques of structural damage detection using model updating method, are computationally expensive for large-scale structures.

This paper proposes an improved version of particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for the training of a neural network (NN). An architecture for the NN trained by PSO (standard PSO, improved PSO) is also introduced. This architecture has a data preprocessing mechanism which consists of a normalization module and a data-shuffling module. Experimental results showed that the NN trained by im...

This paper proposes a novel approach based on the training of the Neural Network method with Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO-NN) for identification of a hydraulic servo robot. The robot is considered to have two degrees of freedom; one is rotational and the other is translational. A feed forward NN is designed for the problem and the weights of the network are trained using Particle Swarm Opti...

In this work, an artificial neural network (ANN) model along with a combination of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) i.e. (PSO-ANFIS) are proposed for modeling and prediction of the propylene/propane adsorption under various conditions. Using these computational intelligence (CI) approaches, the input parameters such as adsorbent shape (S<su...

Recently, dynamic pricing has been a common competitive maneuver in e-commerce. In many industries, firms adjust the product price dynamically by the current product inventory and the future demand distribution. In this paper, we used particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to train neural networks, then introduced the PSO-trained neural network into e-commerce and presented a new dynamic p...
