Protein Structure Prediction Using Evolutionary Algorithms Hybridized with Backtracking

نویسنده

چکیده

This work explores different evolutionary approaches to Protein Structure Prediction (PSP), a highly constrained problem. These are the utilization of a repair procedure, and the use of evolutionary operators whose functioning is closed in feasible space. Both approaches rely on hybridizing the evolutionary algorithm (EA) with a backtracking algorithm. The so-obtained hybrid EAs are described, and empirically compared to a penalty-based EA. The utilization of the repair procedure reveals itself as a very appropriate technique for tackling this problem.

Optimization of sediment rating curve coefficients using evolutionary algorithms and unsupervised artificial neural network

Sediment rating curve (SRC) is a conventional and a common regression model in estimating suspended sediment load (SSL) of flow discharge. However, in most cases the data log-transformation in SRC models causing a bias which underestimates SSL prediction. In this study, using the daily stream flow and suspended sediment load data from Shalman hydrometric station on Shalmanroud River, Guilan Pro...

Prediction of Surface Roughness by Hybrid Artificial Neural Network and Evolutionary Algorithms in End Milling

Machining processes such as end milling are the main steps of production which have major effect on the quality and cost of products. Surface roughness is one of the considerable factors that production managers tend to implement in their decisions. In this study, an artificial neural network is proposed to minimize the surface roughness by tuning the conditions of machining process such as cut...
