Evolution Strategy with Neighborhood Attraction Using a Neural Gas Approach

Investigating the influence of the neighborhood attraction factor to evolution strategies with neighborhood attraction

The evolution strategy with neighborhood attraction (EN) is a new combination of self-organizing maps (SOM) and evolution strategies (ES). It adapts the neighborhood relationship known from SOM to ES individuals to concentrate them around the optimum of the problem. In this paper, detailed investigations on the in uence of one of the most important EN-operators { the neighborhood attraction { w...

Evolution Strategy with Neighborhood Attraction - A Robust Evolution Strategy

A Differential Evolution and Spatial Distribution based Local Search for Training Fuzzy Wavelet Neural Network

Abstract   Many parameter-tuning algorithms have been proposed for training Fuzzy Wavelet Neural Networks (FWNNs). Absence of appropriate structure, convergence to local optima and low speed in learning algorithms are deficiencies of FWNNs in previous studies. In this paper, a Memetic Algorithm (MA) is introduced to train FWNN for addressing aforementioned learning lacks. Differential Evolution...

استفاده از مدل جاذبه برای استخراج انحنای مرز دریاچه سد

Introduction The attraction model algorithm spatially depends on the neighborhoods of the central pixels that are attracting surrounding sub-pixels. Another possibility is the hypothesis of subpixel interaction as introduced by Mertens et al. (2003) and Atkinson (2005). In order to reach a pixel state with the maximum number of sub-pixels of identical classes neighboring, there are several met...
