This paper presents a 3D online path planning algorithm for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) flying in partially known hostile environment. In order to provide a smooth fight route for UAV, the algorithm adopts B-Spline curve to describe UAV’s path whose control points are optimized by an improved differential evolution algorithm. The planner gradually produces a smooth path for UAV from starting ...

In data mining, clustering is one of the important issues for separation and classification with groups like unsupervised data. In this paper, an attempt has been made to improve and optimize the application of clustering heuristic methods such as Genetic, PSO algorithm, Artificial bee colony algorithm, Harmony Search algorithm and Differential Evolution on the unlabeled data of an Iranian bank...

one of the major problems that may occur in the differential protection systems of power transformers is mal-operation of the protection relays in sake of internal fault detection, because of similarity between this current and inrush current. this paper presents a novel approach for discriminating inrush current from internal fault in power transformers based on improved gravitational search a...
