abstract

in this paper, we propose a novel algorithm to enhance the noisy speech in the framework of dual-channel speech enhancement. the new method is a hybrid optimization algorithm, which employs the  combination of  the  conventional θ-pso and the shuffled sub-swarms particle optimization (sspso) technique. it is known that the θ-pso algorithm has better optimization performance than standard pso algorithm, when dealing with some simple benchmark functions. to improve further the performance of the conventional pso, the sspso algorithm has been suggested to increase the diversity of particles in the swarm. the proposed speech enhancement method, called θ-sspso, is a hybrid technique, which incorporates both θ-pso and sspso, with the goal of exploiting the advantages of both algorithms. it is shown that the new θ-sspso algorithm is quite effective in achieving global convergence for adaptive filters, which results in a better suppression of noise from input speech signal. experimental results indicate that the new algorithm outperforms the standard pso, θ-pso, and sspso in a sense of convergence rate and snrimprovement.

Fuzzy Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for a Supplier Clustering Problem

This paper presents a fuzzy decision-making approach to deal with a clustering supplier problem in a supply chain system. During recent years, determining suitable suppliers in the supply chain has become a key strategic consideration. However, the nature of these decisions is usually complex and unstructured. In general, many quantitative and qualitative factors, such as quality, price, and fl...

a new probabilistic particle swarm optimization algorithm for size optimization of spatial truss structures

in this paper, a new enhanced version of the particle swarm optimization (pso) is presented. an important modification is made by adding probabilistic functions into pso, and it is named probabilistic particle swarm optimization (ppso). since the variation of the velocity of particles in pso constitutes its search engine, it should provide two phases of optimization process which are: explorati...

A New Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for Dynamic Environments

Many real world optimization problems are dynamic in which global optimum and local optima change over time. Particle swarm optimization has performed well to find and track optima in dynamic environments. In this paper, we propose a new particle swarm optimization algorithm for dynamic environments. The proposed algorithm utilizes a parent swarm to explore the search space and some child swarm...
