Beam Deflection Monitoring Based on a Genetic Algorithm Using Lidar Data

STRUCTURAL OPTIMIZATION USING A MUTATION-BASED GENETIC ALGORITHM

The present study is an attempt to propose a mutation-based real-coded genetic algorithm (MBRCGA) for sizing and layout optimization of planar and spatial truss structures. The Gaussian mutation operator is used to create the reproduction operators. An adaptive tournament selection mechanism in combination with adaptive Gaussian mutation operators are proposed to achieve an effective search in ...

Optimization of Beam Orientation and Weight in Radiotherapy Treatment Planning using a Genetic Algorithm

Introduction: The selection of suitable beam angles and weights in external-beam radiotherapy is at present generally based upon the experience of the planner. Therefore, automated selection of beam angles and weights in forward-planned radiotherapy will be beneficial. Material and Methods: In this work, an efficient method is presented within the MATLAB environment to investigate how to improv...

Feature Selection in Structural Health Monitoring Big Data Using a Meta-Heuristic Optimization Algorithm

This paper focuses on the processing of structural health monitoring (SHM) big data. Extracted features of a  structure are reduced using an optimization algorithm to find a minimal subset of salient features by removing noisy, irrelevant and redundant data. The PSO-Harmony algorithm is introduced for feature selection to enhance the capability of the proposed method for processing the  measure...

Prognosis of multiple sclerosis disease using data mining approaches random forest and support vector machine based on genetic algorithm

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a degenerative inflammatory disease which is most commonly diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). But, since the MRI device uses of a magnetic field, if there are metal objects in the patient's body, it can disrupt the health of the patient, the functioning of the MRI, and distortion in the images. Due to limitations of using MRI device, screening ...
