The Charged System Search (CSS) is combined to chaos to solve mathematical global optimization problems. The CSS is a recently developed meta-heuristic optimization technique inspired by the governing laws of physics and mechanics. The present study introduces chaos into the CSS in order to increase its global search mobility for a better global optimization. Nine chaos-based CSS (CCSS) methods...

A well-known clustering algorithm is K-means. This algorithm, besides advantages such as high speed and ease of employment, suffers from the problem of local optima. In order to overcome this problem, a lot of studies have been done in clustering. This paper presents a hybrid Extended Cuckoo Optimization Algorithm (ECOA) and K-means (K), which is called ECOA-K. The COA algorithm has advantages ...

In this study, a quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (QPSO) based on hybrid evolution (HEQPSO) approach is proposed to estimate parameters of chaotic dynamic systems, in which the proposed HEQPSO algorithm combines the conceptions of genetic algorithm (GA) and adaptive annealing learning algorithm with the QPSO algorithm. That is, the mutation strategy in GA is used for conquering prema...

Quadrotor is a type of rotor craft that consists of four rotors and two pairs of counter-rotating, fixed-pitch blades located at the four corners of the body. The flight control parameters optimization is one of the key issues for quadrotor. Estimation of distribution algorithm is a new kind of evolutionary algorithm developed rapidly recently. However, low convergence speed and local optimum o...

Despite the popularity, the tuning aspect of proportional–integral-derivative (PID) controllers is a challenge for researchers and plant operators. Various controllers tuning methodologies have been proposed in the literature such as auto-tuning, self-tuning, pattern recognition, artificial intelligence, and optimization methods. Chaotic optimization algorithms as an emergent method of global o...

multiple traveling salesman problem (mtsp) is one of the most popular operation research problem and is known as combinatorial optimization problems. mtsp is an extension version of the famous and widely used problem named traveling salesman problem (tsp). because of its benefices in various domains, many researchers have tried to solve that, and many methods have proposed so far. mtsp is a np-...

In order to reduce the memory footprint and energy consumption of embedded microcontroller in mobile robot, the concise differential evolution algorithm based on chaotic local search (CDE-CLS) is proposed for online optimization of recurrent fuzzy neural network (RFNN) controller in robot path planning so that the robot can be adaptive real-time obstacle avoidance. The CDE-CLS algorithm reduces...

Lion swarm optimization (LSO) inspired by the natural division of labor among lion king, lionesses and cubs in a group, i.e., king guarding, hunting following, is relatively novel intelligent technique. Due to its remarkable performance, canonical LSO has been extensively researched. However, how balance contradictions between exploration exploitation alleviate premature convergence are two cri...
