The speech signal enhancement is for obtain clean speech signal from noisy signal environment. For multimodal optimization we better to use natural-inspired algorithms. In this paper we use Firefly algorithmWe compare the firefly algorithm with particle swarm optimization technique (PSO). The proposed algorithm contains three important module techniques. Those are preprocessing module, optimiza...

The purpose of this research is predicting the stock prices using the Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm and Box-Jenkins method. In this way, the information of 165 corporations is collected from 2001 to 2016. Then, this research considers price to earnings per share and earnings per share as main variables. The relevant regression equation was created using two variables of earnings per sha...

Grey cast iron of the grade ASTM 48 is in the use for manufacturing casting parts with low or middle duty or load, such as various stove parts, gas burners, boiler parts, protective cover, hand wheel, brackets, base plate, crane balls, counter weight, handle, machine base etc. The production volume rate is mainly lies with the material removal rate during machining process and this is essential...

With the potential growth of multimedia hardware and applications, the machines have to realize the information by adapting to the internal information. An adaptive content based image retrieval (CBIR) approach based on relevance feedback and Firefly algorithm is proposed in this paper. In addition to the color descriptor, wavelet-based texture descriptor is considered to improve the retrieval ...

Data clustering is a process of arranging similar data in different groups based on certain characteristics and properties, each group considered as cluster. In the last decades, several nature-inspired optimization algorithms proved to be efficient for computing problems. Firefly algorithm one metaheuristic regarded an tool many issues areas such clustering. To overcome velocity, firefly can i...
