in the science of operation research and decision theory, selection is the most important process. selection is a process that studies multiple qualitative and quantitative criteria, related to the science of management, which are mostly incompatible with each other. the multi criteria selection of a renewable energy portfolio is one of the main issues considered in multi criteria literature. i...

today, with rapid growth of the world wide web and creation of internet sites and online text resources, text summarization issue is highly attended by various researchers. extractive-based text summarization is an important summarization method which is included of selecting the top representative sentences from the input document. when, we are facing into large data volume documents, the extr...

A new technique presents to improve the performance of dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) for voltage sag mitigation. This control scheme is based on cuckoo search algorithm with tree fuzzy rule based classifier (CSA-TFRC). CSA is used for optimizing the output of TFRC so the classification output of the network is enhanced. While, the combination of cuckoo search algorithm, fuzzy and decision tree...

A well-known clustering algorithm is K-means. This algorithm, besides advantages such as high speed and ease of employment, suffers from the problem of local optima. In order to overcome this problem, a lot of studies have been done in clustering. This paper presents a hybrid Extended Cuckoo Optimization Algorithm (ECOA) and K-means (K), which is called ECOA-K. The COA algorithm has advantages ...

For this paper, we explored the implementation of the cuckoo search algorithm applied to the capacitated vehicle routing problem. The cuckoo search algorithm was implemented with Lévy flights with the 2-opt and double-bridge operations, and with 500 iterations for each run. The algorithm was tested on the problem instances from the Augerat benchmark dataset. The algorithm did not perform well o...

In this paper, Hybridization of Cuckoo Search algorithm with Powell Search (HCSPS) is used to solve optimal reactive power problem. Cuckoo search (CS) has been recently projected as a population-based optimization algorithm and it is has so far been efficaciously applied in a variety of fields. The inertia weight of Levy flights is presented to balance the capability of global and local search....

In this paper, we proposed an improved cuckoo search optimization (ICS) algorithm for solving planar graph coloring problem. The improved cuckoo search optimization algorithm is consisting of the walking one strategy, swap and inversion strategy and greedy strategy. The proposed improved cuckoo search optimization algorithm can solve the planar graph coloring problem using four-colors more effi...
