In order to optimize the spectrum resource allocation in the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system and minimize the transmitted power, this paper proposed a modified basic particle swarm optimization algorithm to allocate the subcarriers and bits of the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system. The algorithm uses the average individual extreme value instead of individual ex...

The use of complex network analysis has gathered momenta in both theoretical and empirical studies. Network clustering plays an important role in network analysis. This paper models the networkclustering task as an optimization problem. A novel discrete particle swarm optimization algorithm is introduced to solve the modeled optimization problem. Particle swarm optimization is a stochastic sear...

Convergence stagnation is the chief difficulty to solve hard optimization problems for most particle swarm optimization variants. To address this issue, a novel particle swarm optimization using multi-information characteristics of all personal-best information is developed in our research. In the modified algorithm, two positions are defined by personal-best positions and an improved cognition...

In this paper, a new improved Differential Search Algorithm optimization approach is proposed and successfully applied to the design and tuning of a PID-type Fuzzy Logic Controller. The scaling factors tuning problem of the Fuzzy Logic Controller structure is formulated and systematically resolved, using the improved constrained Differential Search Algorithm-based method. A comparison, with the...

Assembly sequence planning (ASP) is a combinatorial optimization problem in which the order for each part and subassembly is determined. This order is then incorporated into an incrementally expanding subassembly and eventually results in a final assembly. To address this problem, we propose an improved cat swarm optimization (CSO) algorithm and redefine some basic CSO concepts and operations a...

This paper presents a robust hybrid improved dolphin echolocation and ant colony optimization algorithm (IDEACO) for optimization of truss structures with discrete sizing variables. The dolphin echolocation (DE) is inspired by the navigation and hunting behavior of dolphins. An improved version of dolphin echolocation (IDE), as the main engine, is proposed and uses the positive attributes of an...

nowadays, by successful application of on time production concept in other concepts like production management and storage, the need to complete the processing of jobs in their delivery time is considered a key issue in industrial environments. unrelated parallel machines scheduling is a general mood of classic problems of parallel machines. in some of the applications of unrelated parallel mac...

Inspired by the migratory behavior in the nature, a novel particle swarm optimization algorithm based on particle migration (MPSO) is proposed in this work. In this new algorithm, the population is randomly partitioned into several sub-swarms, each of which is made to evolve based on particle swarm optimization with time varying inertia weight and acceleration coefficients (LPSO-TVAC). At perio...

Traditional mathematical algorithms are incapable of solving real time engineering design problems because of its rigid procedure mainly due to discrete or random data and multiobjective functions in a problem. An optimization algorithm is a procedure which is executed iteratively by comparing various solutions till the optimum or a satisfactory solution is found. There are two population based...
