so far various methods for optimization presented and one of most popular of them are optimization algorithms based on swarm intelligence and also one of most successful of them is particle swarm optimization (pso). prior some efforts by applying fuzzy logic for improving defects of pso such as trapping in local optimums and early convergence has been done. moreover to overcome the problem of i...

fuzzy segmentation is an effective way of segmenting out objects in images containing both random noise and varying illumination. in this paper, a modified method based on the comprehensive learning particle swarm optimization (clpso) is proposed for pixel classification in hsi color space by selecting a fuzzy classification system with minimum number of fuzzy rules and minimum number of incorr...

in this article, multiple-product pvrp with pickup and delivery that is used widely in goods distribution or other service companies, especially by railways, was introduced. a mathematical formulation was provided for this problem. each product had a set of vehicles which could carry the product and pickup and delivery could simultaneously occur. to solve the problem, two meta-heuristic methods...

differential steering of in-wheel electric vehicle provides the functions of both active steering and power assisted steering with the coupling control of force and displacement transfer characteristic of system. a collaborative optimization model of the differential power-assisted steering system of in-wheel electric vehicle is built, with steering economy as the main system optimization goal,...

A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET), a set of wirelessly connected sensor nodes, is a dynamic system that executes hop-by-hop routing independently with no external help of any infrastructure. Proper selection of cluster heads can increase the life time of the Ad-hoc network by decreasing the energy consumption. Although different methods have been successfully proposed by researchers to tackle...

Optimization algorithms are proposed to tackle different complex problems in different areas. In this paper, we firstly put forward a new memetic evolutionary algorithm, named Monkey King Evolutionary (MKE) Algorithm, for global optimization. Then we make a deep analysis of three update schemes for the proposed algorithm. Finally we give an application of this algorithm to solve least gasoline ...
