Social Harmony Search Algorithm for Continuous Optimization

This paper presents a social harmony search algorithm to solve optimization problems with continuous design variables. Although the Harmony Search (HS) algorithm (HSA) has proven its ability in finding near global regions within a reasonable time, it is rather inefficient in performing local search. The proposed method applies the harmony search optimizer for global optimization and normal dist...

Expert Mining for Solving Social Harmony Problems

Social harmony problems are being existed in social system, which is an open giant complex system. For solving such kind of problems the Metasynthesis system approach proposed by Qian XS et al will be applied. In this approach the data, information, knowledge, model, experience and wisdom should be integrated and synthesized. Data mining, text mining and web mining are good techniques for using...
