Blind source separation technique separates mixed signals blindly without any information on the mixing system. In this paper, we have used two evolutionary algorithms, namely, genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization for blind source separation. In these techniques a novel fitness function that is based on the mutual information and high order statistics is proposed. In order to evalu...

Clustering is a popular data analysis and data mining technique. In this paper, a novel chaotic particle swarm fuzzy clustering (CPSFC) algorithm based on chaotic particle swarm (CPSO) and gradient method is proposed. Fuzzy clustering model optimization is challenging, in order to solve this problem, adaptive inertia weight factor (AIWF) and iterative chaotic map with infinite collapses (ICMIC)...

in this paper a novel direct adaptive fuzzy system is proposed to control flexible-joints robot including actuator dynamics. the design includes two interior loops: the inner loop controls the motor position using proposed approach while the outer loop controls the joint angle of the robot using a pid control law. one novelty of this paper is the use of a pso algorithm for optimizing the contro...

regarding the large number of developed particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithms and the various applications for which pso has been used, selecting the most suitable variant of pso for solving a particular optimization problem is a challenge for most researchers. in this paper, using a comprehensive survey and taxonomy on different types of pso, an expert system (es) is designed to identif...

The dynamics of fractional-order systems have attracted increasing attentions in recent years. In this paper, the synchronization of two coupled nonlinear fractional order chaotic oscillators is numerically demonstrated using the master–slave synchronization scheme. It is shown that fractional-order chaotic oscillators can be synchronized with appropriate coupling strength. 2005 Elsevier Ltd. A...
