چکیده

This article presents a novel cost function for estimating the parameters of the Gaussian plume model using simulated annealing. The novel cost function takes into account the meandering and intermittency phenomena found on dispersing plumes. The proposed method was validated using real gas sensor data sampled by a swarm of 5 robots performing the Decentralized Asynchronous Particle Swarm Optimization for plume tracing under a controlled environment.

Optimal Grondwater Monitoring Network Design for Pollution Plume Estimation with Active Sources

A new methodology has been developed to design optimal monitoring network to estimate the transient pollution plume resulting from active pollution sources in a contaminated aquifer. An optimization algorithm is linked with geostatistical kriging model as well as a numerical simulation model. Simulated annealing is used as the optimization tool. The physical process in the aquifer, i.e., the fl...

An Integrated Model of Project Scheduling and Material Ordering: A Hybrid Simulated Annealing and Genetic Algorithm

This study aims to deal with a more realistic combined problem of project scheduling and material ordering. The goal is to minimize the total material holding and ordering costs by determining the starting time of activities along with material ordering schedules subject to some constraints. The problem is first mathematically modelled. Then a hybrid simulated annealing and genetic algorithm is...

IMAGE SEGMENTATION USING GAUSSIAN MIXTURE MODEL

  Stochastic models such as mixture models, graphical models, Markov random fields and hidden Markov models have key role in probabilistic data analysis. In this paper, we have learned Gaussian mixture model to the pixels of an image. The parameters of the model have estimated by EM-algorithm.   In addition pixel labeling corresponded to each pixel of true image is made by Bayes rule. In fact, ...
