Particle swarm optimization techniques are typically made up of a population of simple agents interacting locally with one another and with their environment, with the goal of locating the optima within the operational environment. In this paper, a robust and intelligent particle swarm optimization framework based on multi-agent system is presented, where learning capabilities are incorporated ...

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has the inherent properties of being robust to interference and frequency selective fading and is de facto the adopted multiplexing techniques for the 4 th generation wireless network systems. In wireless system, resources such as bandwidth and power are limited, intelligent allocation of these resources to users are crucial for delivering the b...

Optimizing the refrigerant circuitry for a finned-tube evaporator is a daunting task for traditional exhaustive search techniques due to the extremely large number of circuitry possibilities. For this reason, more intelligent search techniques are needed. This paper presents and evaluates a novel optimization system, called ISHED1 (Intelligent System for Heat Exchanger Design). This system uses...

estimation of the conceptual costs in construction projects can be regarded as an important issue in feasibility studies. this estimation has a major impact on the success of construction projects. indeed, this estimation supports the required information that can be employed in cost management and budgeting of these projects. the purpose of this paper is to introduce an intelligent model to im...

Video games provide an opportunity and challenge for the soft computational intelligence methods like the symbolic games did for “good old-fashioned artificial intelligence.” This article reviews the achievements and future prospects of one particular approach, that of evolving neural networks, or neuroevolution. This approach can be used to construct adaptive characters in existing video games...

Traditional forecasting methods need strict assumptions such as normality and linearity. It is very difficult to satisfy these assumptions for real-world time series. Many realworld time series can be easily analyzed by using fuzzy time series methods since fuzzy time series methods do not require any strict assumptions. Therefore, fuzzy time series approaches have been getting more and more at...

Intelligent knowledge based system (IKBS) is developed for optimizing dry CNC turning process using Taguchi method, CNC Machine, EN19 steel as the work piece material, andCutting Insert. Tool wear and spindle loading which are the machining parameters, spindle speed, feed rate, and depth of cut, areoptimized through the intelligent knowledge based system (IKBS). The experimental CNC turning mac...

Abstract: Using robot manipulators for high accuracy applications require precise value of the kinematics parameters. Since measurement of kinematics parameters are usually associated with errors and accurate measurement of them is an expensive task, automatic calibration of robot link parameters makes the task of kinematics parameters determination much easier. In this paper a simple and easy ...

After PQ data of interest are obtained, a comprehensive PQ assessment can be carried out depending on the purpose of the study. This may include power system and equipment modeling verification, PQ problem mitigation and optimization, and data analysis [4,5]. In most cases, automated PQ assessment is desirable because manual analysis may be difficult to carry out due to lack of time and special...

A review of the applications of interval type-2 fuzzy logic in intelligent control has been considered in this paper. The fundamental focus of the paper is based on the basic reasons for using type-2 fuzzy controllers for different areas of application. Recently, bio-inspired methods have emerged as powerful optimization algorithms for solving complex problems. In the case of designing type-2 f...
