This paper presents a novel indirect adaptive Power System Stabilizer (PSS) via a developed synergetic control methodology and fuzzy systems. Fuzzy system is utilized in an adaptive scheme to estimate the system using a nonlinear model. The synergetic control guarantees robustness of the controller and makes the controller easy to implement because of using a chatter free continuous control law...

This paper proposes the design of a Proportional Integral (PI) controller using Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA) to control the speed of an Induction Motor (IM) fed from wind turbine. The wind turbine plays as a prime mover to a connected DC generator. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is used to get three phase AC voltage from the output of DC generator. The proposed design problem of speed ...

The objective of this paper is to propose an adaptive-evolutionary method for thresholding which is used as an artificial intelligent algorithm for image segmentation especially for object segmentation. This method employs resistant versus mixed histograms because of its suitable fitness function selection that consists of the histogram details. As things develop in the paper, three evolutionar...

due to project evaluation complexity and resource constraints, the project portfolio optimization is numerous decision making challenges. hence, many researches have been done to introduce model and methods for portfolio optimization. but most of them have not considered the interaction between projects. considering the interactions between projects increase complexity of portfolio optimization...

This system aims at attaining a very high recognition rate and a very high reliability, In other words, excellent recognition performance of credit card fraud detection was obtained. Then, One solution was p...

Background: The effects of trace elements on human health and the environment gives importance to the analysis of heavy metals contamination in environmental samples and, more particularly, human food sources. Therefore, the current study aimed to predict arsenic and heavy metals (Cu, Pb, and Zn) contamination in the groundwater resources of Ghahavand Plain based on an artificial neural network...

This paper proposes a new approach by combining the Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) and socio-political process based Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA). This approach tries to capture several people involved in community development characteristic. People live in different type of communities: Monarchy, Republic, Autocracy and Multinational. Leadership styles are different in each community. ...

ABSTRACT: Decentralized load frequency controller (LFC) for multiarea power system using the state feedback controller based on Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA) is developed and studied in this paper.In this method, an objective cost function is used to design the gains of the state feedback matrix. The proposed cost function decrease the frequency deviation and power flow variations bet...

Cloud computing is being welcomed as a new basis to manage and provide services on the internet. One of the reasons for increased efficiency of this environment is the appropriate structure of the tasks scheduler. Since the tasks scheduling in the cloud computing environment and distributed systems is an NP-hard problem, in most cases to optimize the scheduling issues, the meta-heuristic method...

with the rapid development of the internet, the amount of information and data which are produced, are extremely massive. hence, client will be confused with huge amount of data, and it is difficult to understand which ones are useful. data mining can overcome this problem. while data mining is using on cloud computing, it is reducing time of processing, energy usage and costs. as the speed of ...
