The Firefly Machine: Online Evolware

چکیده
We present the firefly machine, an evolving hardware system, demonstrating that “evolving ware,” evolware, can be attained. The system is based on the cellular programming approach, in which parallel cellular machines evolve to solve computational tasks. The firefly system operates with no reference to an external device, such as a computer that carries out genetic operators, thereby exhibiting online autonomous evolution.

متن کاملA New Knowledge-Based System for Diagnosis of Breast Cancer by a combination of the Affinity Propagation and Firefly Algorithms
Breast cancer has become a widespread disease around the world in young women. Expert systems, developed by data mining techniques, are valuable tools in diagnosis of breast cancer and can help physicians for decision making process. This paper presents a new hybrid data mining approach to classify two groups of breast cancer patients (malignant and benign). The proposed approach, AP-AMBFA, con...
متن کاملThe Construction of Support Vector Machine Classifier Using the Firefly Algorithm
The setting of parameters in the support vector machines (SVMs) is very important with regard to its accuracy and efficiency. In this paper, we employ the firefly algorithm to train all parameters of the SVM simultaneously, including the penalty parameter, smoothness parameter, and Lagrangian multiplier. The proposed method is called the firefly-based SVM (firefly-SVM). This tool is not conside...
متن کاملGenerating Prioritized Test Sequences Using Firefly Optimization Technique
The aim of this study is to propose an algorithm for generating minimal test sequences by applying Firefly optimization technique. In this study, we use state machine diagram for the behavioral specification of software. This paper generates the important test sequences for composite states in the state machine diagram under consideration. The generated test sequences are then prioritized based...
متن کاملOpposition-based Firefly Algorithm Optimized Feature Subset Selection Approach for Fetal Risk Anticipation
Recently huge amount of data is available in the field of medicine that helps the doctors in diagnosing diseases when analysed. Data mining techniques can be applied to these medical data to extract knowledge so that disease prediction becomes accurate and easier. In this work, cardiotocogram (CTG) data is analysed using Support Vector Machine (SVM) for predicting fetal risk. Opposition based f...
