A properly designed machining procedure can significantly affect the efficiency of the production lines. To minimize the cost of machining process as well as increasing the quality of products, cutting parameters must permit the reduction of cutting time and cost to the lowest possible levels. To achieve this, cutting parameters must be kept in the optimal range. This is a non-linear optimizati...

In this paper we re-call a recently developed meta heuristic optimization algorithm based on socio-political process of imperialistic competition. This Colonial Competitive Algorithm (CCA) has shown its efficient capability in comparison to convenient optimization algorithms like GA, PSO. In this study we investigate the synthesis problem of unequally linear space antenna using CCA and show the...

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is currently a prevalent disease from which many people suffer. Early detection and treatment could reduce the risk of heart attack. Currently, the golden standard for the diagnosis of CAD is angiography, which is an invasive procedure. In this article, we propose an algorithm that uses data mining techniques, a fuzzy expert system, and the imperialist competitive ...

This paper proposes a hybrid approach by combining the evolutionary optimization based genetic algorithm (GA) and socio-political process based colonial competitive algorithm (CCA). The performance of hybrid algorithm is illustrated using standard test functions in comparison to basic CCA method. Since the CCA method is newly developed, very little research work has been undertaken to deal with...
