the vast use of linear prediction coefficients (lpc) in speech processing systems has intensified the importance of their accurate computation. this paper is concerned with computing lpc coefficients using evolutionary algorithms: genetic algorithm (ga), particle swarm optimization (pso), dif-ferential evolution (de) and particle swarm optimization with differentially perturbed velocity (pso-dv...

This paper presents a particle swarm optimization (PSO) based approach for multiple object tracking based on histogram matching. To start with, gray-level histograms are calculated to establish a feature model for each of the target object. The difference between the gray-level histogram corresponding to each particle in the search space and the target object is used as the fitness value. Multi...

Particle swarm optimization(PSO) has been applied on feature selection with many improved results. Traditional PSO methods have some drawbacks when dealing with binary space, which may have negative effects on the selection result. In this paper, an algorithm based on fitness proportionate selection binary particle swarm optimization(FPSBPSO) will be discussed in detail aiming to overcome the p...

The reactive power planning and dispatch problems have been solved using Genetic algorithm (GA), Differential evolution (DE) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique in order to have a comparative study on the performance of these algorithms. It has been found that Differential evolution performs best followed by the Particle swarm optimization. Both DE and PSO can perform well even with...

in this paper, we have proposed a new algorithm which combines pso and ga in such a way that the new algorithm is more effective and efficient.the particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithm has shown rapid convergence during the initial stages of a global search but around global optimum, the search process will become very slow. on the other hand, genetic algorithm is very sensitive to the in...

Genetic Algorithm (GA), Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) are proposed for feature selection, and their performance is compared. The Spatial Gray Level Dependence Method (SGLDM) is used for feature extraction. The selected features are fed to a three-layer Backpropagation Network hybrid with Ant Colony Optimization and Particle Swarm Optimization (BPN...

Quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (QPSO) is an efficient and powerful population-based optimization technique, which is inspired by the conventional particle swarm optimization (PSO) and quantum mechanics theories. In this paper, an improved QPSO named SQPSO is proposed, which combines QPSO with a selective probability operator to solve the economic dispatch (ED) problems with valve-p...

In this paper a new effective optimization algorithm called hybrid particle swarm optimizer with breeding and subpopulation is presented. This algorithm is essentially, as PSO and GA, a population-based heuristic search technique, now in use for the optimization of electromagnetic structures, modeled on the concepts of natural selection and evolution (GA) but also based on cultural and social r...

In this paper we consider the evolutionary Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm, for the minimization of a computationally costly nonlinear function, in global optimization frameworks. We study a reformulation of the standard iteration of PSO [KE95, CK02] into a linear dynamic system. Then, the latter is partially investigated in order to provide indications for the parameters selection ...

oil production optimization is one of the main targets of reservoir management. smart well technology gives the ability of real time oil production optimization. although this technology has many advantages; optimum adjustment or sizing of corresponding valves is still an issue to be solved. in this research, optimum port sizing of inflow control devices (icds) which are passive control valves ...
