The purpose of this study is to optimize the stock price forecasting model with meta-innovation method in pharmaceutical companies.In this research, stock portfolio optimization has been done in two separate phases.The first phase is related to forecasting stock futures based on past stock information, which is forecasting the stock price using artificial neural network.The neural network used ...

A multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) approach is presented for generating Pareto-optimal solutions for reservoir operation problems. This method is developed by integrating Pareto dominance principles into particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. In addition, a variable size external repository and an efficient elitist-mutation (EM) operator are introduced. The proposed EM-...

one of the most important applications of multi-objective optimization is adjusting parameters ofpractical engineering problems in order to produce a more desirable outcome. in this paper, the decoupled sliding mode control technique (dsmc) is employed to stabilize an inverted pendulum which is a classic example of inherently unstable systems. furthermore, a new multi-objective particle swarm o...

In the recent years, multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) has become quite popular in the field of multi-objective optimization. However, due to a large amount of fitness evaluations as well as the task of archive maintaining, the running time of MOPSO for optimizing some difficult problems may be quite long. This paper proposes a parallel MOPSO based on consumer-level Graphics P...

The Software Cost Estimation is very important task for completing the project successfully. The estimation in software development depends on various factors especially on cost and effort factors for which further AI (Artificial Intelligence) and Algorithmic models have been put into usage. This paper aims to discuss the methods for calculating the effort by using meta-heuristic algorithms for...

Vehicular Ad hoc NETworks (VANETs) are a major component recently used in the development of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs). VANETs have a highly dynamic and portioned network topology due to the constant and rapid movement of vehicles. Currently, clustering algorithms are widely used as the control schemes to make VANET topology less dynamic for Medium Access Control (MAC), routing ...

Optimization algorithms play a critical role in electromagnetic device designs due to the ever-increasing technological and economical competition. Although evolutionary algorithm-based methods have successfully been applied different design problems, these exhibit deficiencies when solving complex problems with multimodal discontinuous objective functions, which is quite common optimization de...
