Blind source separation technique separates mixed signals blindly without any information on the mixing system. In this paper, we have used two evolutionary algorithms, namely, genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization for blind source separation. In these techniques a novel fitness function that is based on the mutual information and high order statistics is proposed. In order to evalu...

In this paper, we proposed an algorithm for solving the problem of task scheduling using particle swarm optimization algorithm, with changes in the Selection and removing the guide and also using the technique to get away from the bad, to move away from local extreme and diversity. Scheduling algorithms play an important role in grid computing, parallel tasks Scheduling and sending them to ...

An efficient methodology is proposed to find optimal shape of arch dams on the basis of constrained natural frequencies. The optimization is carried out by virtual sub population (VSP) evolutionary algorithm employing real values of design variables. In order to reduce the computational cost of the optimization process, the arch dam natural frequencies are predicted by properly trained back pro...

fuzzy clustering methods are conveniently employed in constructing a fuzzy model of a system, but they need to tune some parameters. in this research, fcm is chosen for fuzzy clustering. parameters such as the number of clusters and the value of fuzzifier significantly influence the extent of generalization of the fuzzy model. these two parameters require tuning to reduce the overfitting in the...

optimizing the database queries is one of hard research problems. exhaustive search techniques like dynamic programming is suitable for queries with a few relations, but by increasing the number of relations in query, much use of memory and processing is needed, and the use of these methods is not suitable, so we have to use random and evolutionary methods. the use of evolutionary methods, beca...

The design of interior cutouts in laminated composite panels is of great importance in aerospace, automobile and structural engineering. Based on the Tsai–Hill failure criterion of the first ply, this paper presents a newly developed Fixed (FG) Grid Evolutionary Structural Optimization (ESO) method to explore shape optimization of multiple cutouts in composite structures. Different design cases...

The natural selection and the evolutionary optimization of complex shapes in nature are closely related to their functions. Mechanostabilization of shape of biological structure via morphogenesis has several beautiful examples. With the help of simple mechanics-based modeling and experiments, we show an important causality between natural shape selection as evolutionary outcome and the mechanos...

Software quality is one of the most important practical features of software development. Project managers and developers look for methods and tools supporting software development processes and ensuring a required level of quality. To make such tools relevant, they should provide the designer/manager with some quantitative input useful for purposes of interpretation of the results. Knowledge p...
