One of reasons that researchers in recent years have tried to produce ultrafine grained materials is producing lightweight components with high strength and reliability. There are disparate methods for production of ultra-fine grain materials,one of which is severe plastic deformation method. Severe plastic deformation method comprises different processes, one of which is Parallel tubular chann...

A frame work for Adaptive Filter/Adaptive Noise Canceller (AF/ANC) design through Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) is presented as an application in Electroencephalography /Event Related Potentials (EEG/ERP) filtering. Process of parameter setting for EA is also explored. A concept of bounded or controlled search space is proposed to identify the best range for search space. Statistical analysis ove...

We attack the problem of controlling teams of autonomous units during skirmishes in real-time strategy games. Earlier work had shown promise in evolving control algorithm parameters that lead to high performance team behaviors similar to those favored by good human players in real-time strategy games like Starcraft. This algorithm specifically encoded parameterized kiting and fleeing behaviors ...

This paper presents a real-coded memetic algorithm that applies a crossover hill-climbing to solutions produced by the genetic operators. On the one hand, the memetic algorithm provides global search (reliability) by means of the promotion of high levels of population diversity. On the other, the crossover hill-climbing exploits the self-adaptive capacity of real-parameter crossover operators w...

An algorithm for adaptively controlling genetic algorithm parameter (GAP) coding using fuzzy rules is presented. The fuzzy GAP coding algorithm is compared to the dynamic parameter encoding scheme proposed by Schraudolph and Belew. The performance of the algorithm on a hydraulic brake emulator parameter identification problem is investigated. Fuzzy GAP coding control is shown to dramatically in...

this study emphasized the ability of genetic algorithm and cellular automate to simulate urban land use changes by integrating adaptive model. the most important part of modeling is to define transition rules.  in this research, a cellular automata model in dinamica ego software was used coupled with genetic algorithm. according to disability of the software for manipulating large number of var...

Computer Vision can provide a great deal of assistance to Intelligent Vehicles. In this paper an Advanced Driver Assistance Systems for Vehicle Detection is presented. A geometric model of the vehicle is defined where its energy function includes information of the shape and symmetry of the vehicle and the shadow it produces. A genetic algorithm finds the optimum parameter values. As the algori...

In this study, the performance of an irreversible regenerative Brayton cycle is sought through power maximizations using finite-time thermodynamic concept in finite-size components. Optimizations are performed using a genetic algorithm. In order to take into account the finite-time and finite-size concepts in the current problem, a dimensionless mass-flow rate parameter is used to deploy ti...

Adaptive networks include a set of nodes with adaptation and learning abilities for modeling various types of self-organized and complex activities encountered in the real world. This paper presents the effect of heterogeneously distributed incremental LMS algorithm with ideal links on the quality of unknown parameter estimation. In heterogeneous adaptive networks, a fraction of the nodes, defi...
