چکیده

A hydrological model based in the cellular automata paradigm, capable to handle extended geographical domains discretized in a large number of cells is presented. The automata simulates the natural surface water flow by tracking local water stocks, book-keeping precipitation, infiltration, evapotranspiration, and intercellular flows. The flow resistance is represented with a relaxation local parameter, which takes different values for the watercourses and the terrain. Likewise, an infiltration function regulates the downward movement of water. The model was tested in the Santa Catalina Creek Basin (158 km, centre Buenos Aires Province in Argentina), showing excellent performance in reproducing the effect of various rainfall scenarios. 2006 Published by Elsevier B.V.

Improved Frog Leaping Algorithm Using Cellular Learning Automata

In this paper, a new algorithm which is the result of the combination of cellular learning automata and frog leap algorithm (SFLA) is proposed for optimization in continuous, static environments.At the proposed algorithm, each memeplex of frogs is placed in a cell of cellular learning automata. Learning automata in each cell acts as the brain of memeplex, and will determine the strategy of moti...

Robot Path Planning Using Cellular Automata and Genetic Algorithm

In path planning Problems, a complete description of robot geometry, environments and obstacle are presented; the main goal is routing, moving from source to destination, without dealing with obstacles. Also, the existing route should be optimal. The definition of optimality in routing is the same as minimizing the route, in other words, the best possible route to reach the destination. In most...

A CELLULAR AUTOMATA BASED FIREFLY ALGORITHM FOR LAYOUT OPTIMIZAION OF TRUSS STRUCTURES

In this study an efficient meta-heuristic is proposed for layout optimization of truss structures by combining cellular automata (CA) and firefly algorithm (FA). In the proposed meta-heuristic, called here as cellular automata firefly algorithm (CAFA), a new equation is presented for position updating of fireflies based on the concept of CA. Two benchmark examples of truss structures are presen...

An Optimized Firefly Algorithm based on Cellular Learning Automata for Community Detection in Social Networks

The structure of the community is one of the important features of social networks. A community is a sub graph which nodes have a lot of connections to nodes of inside the community and have very few connections to nodes of outside the community. The objective of community detection is to separate groups or communities that are linked more closely. In fact, community detection is the clustering...

Simulation of Future Land Use Map of the Catchment Area, with the Integration of Cellular Automata and Markov Chain Models Based on Selection of the Best Classification Algorithm: A Case Study of Fakhrabad Basin of Mehriz, Yazd

INTRODUCTION Since the land use change affects many natural processes including soil erosion and sediment yield, floods and soil degradation and the chemical and physical properties of soil, so, different aspects of land use changes in the past and future should be considered particularly in the planning and decision-making. One of the most important applications of remote sensing is land ...
