one of the most important applications of multi-objective optimization is adjusting parameters ofpractical engineering problems in order to produce a more desirable outcome. in this paper, the decoupled sliding mode control technique (dsmc) is employed to stabilize an inverted pendulum which is a classic example of inherently unstable systems. furthermore, a new multi-objective particle swarm o...

cementation factor is a critical parameter, which affects water saturation calculation. in carbonate rocks, due to the sensitivity of this parameter to pore type, water saturation estimation has associated with high inaccuracy. hence developing a reliable mathematical strategy to determine these properties accurately is of crucial importance. to this end, genetic algorithm pattern search is emp...

the purpose of load frequency control is to reduce transient oscillation frequencies than its nominal valueand achieve zero steady-state error for it.a common technique used in real applications is to use theproportional integral controller (pi). but this controller has a longer settling time and a lot of extramutation in output response of system so it required that the parameters be adjusted ...

Over the past few years, swarm intelligence based optimization techniques such as ant colony optimization and particle swarm optimization have received considerable attention from engineering researchers. These algorithms have been used in the solution of various structural optimization problems where the main goal is to minimize the weight of structures while satisfying all design requirements...

In recent days, Swarm Intelligence plays an important role in solving many real life optimization problems. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is swarm intelligence based search and optimization algorithm which is used to solve global optimization problems. But due to lack of population diversity and premature convergence it is often trapped into local optima. We can increase diversity and preve...

A new promising strategy for the PSO (Particle swarm optimization) algorithm is proposed and described in this paper. This new strategy presents alternative way of assigning new velocity to each individual in particle swarm (population). This new multiple choice particle swarm optimization (MC-PSO) algorithm is tested on two different shifted test functions to show the performance on problems t...

In order to overcome the weakness that particle swarm optimization algorithm is likely to fall into local minimum when the complex optimization problems are solved, a new adaptive dynamic particle swarm optimization algorithm is proposed. The paper introduces the evaluation index of particle swarm premature convergence to judge the state of particle swarm in the population space, for the sake o...

A further ...

In order to overcome the basic glowworm swarm optimization (GSO) algorithm in the high dimension space function optimization effect is poor defects. This paper, we introduce the idea of the traditional complex method, with the complex method the worst part of the glowworm guidance for reflection be good glowworm swarm, so as to continuously make the worst glowworm swarm become the better glowwo...
