Binary ant colony optimization applied to variable screening in the Mahalanobis-Taguchi System
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work presents the application of the Mahalanobis–Taguchi System (MTS) to a dimensional problem in the automotive industry. The combinatorial optimization problem of variable selection is solved by the application of a recent version of binary ant colony optimization algorithm. Moreover, a comparison with respect to binary particle swarm optimization algorithm is also presented and a discussion regarding the numerical results is given. 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

FORCED WATER MAIN DESIGN MIXED ANT COLONY OPTIMIZATION
Most real world engineering design problems, such as cross-country water mains, include combinations of continuous, discrete, and binary value decision variables. Very often, the binary decision variables associate with the presence and/or absence of some nominated alternatives or project’s components. This study extends an existing continuous Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm to simultan...
متن کاملA hybridization of evolutionary fuzzy systems and ant Colony optimization for intrusion detection
A hybrid approach for intrusion detection in computer networks is presented in this paper. The proposed approach combines an evolutionary-based fuzzy system with an Ant Colony Optimization procedure to generate high-quality fuzzy-classification rules. We applied our hybrid learning approach to network security and validated it using the DARPA KDD-Cup99 benchmark data set. The results indicate t...

متن کاملMahalanobis-Taguchi System-based criteria selection for strategy formulation: a case in a training institution
The increasing complexity of decision making in a severely dynamic competitive environment of the universe has urged the wise managers to have relevant strategic plans for their firms. Strategy is not formulated from one criterion but from multiple criteria in environmental scanning, and often, considering all of them is not possible. A list of criteria utilizing Delphi was selected by consu...
