Shuffled frog leaping algorithm is a new kind of swarm intelligence optimization algorithm. Due to the local search of the basic shuffled frog leaping algorithm which is the only by the worst frog to search and jump, searching ability of which was limited; therefore it had the low precision, slow convergence speed and easy premature convergence etc. Therefore, in order to enhance the ability of...

To improve the unreasonable distribution of sensors' random deployment and increase network coverage rate, an optimization method of wireless sensor networks coverage based on improved shuffled frog leaping algorithm (ISFLA) was proposed in this paper.During the process of updating the frog, a novel learning strategy is introduced, in which the poor frog learns not only from the best frog of it...

clustering is one of the known techniques in the field of data mining where data with similar properties is within the set of categories. k-means algorithm is one the simplest clustering algorithms which have disadvantages sensitive to initial values of the clusters and converging to the local optimum. in recent years, several algorithms are provided based on evolutionary algorithms for cluster...

Recently, Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems have been utilized increasingly in power systems. With the addition penetration of CHP-based co-generation of electricity and heat, the determination of economic dispatch of power and heat becomes a more complex and challenging issue. The optimal operation of CHP-based systems is inherently a nonlinear and non-convex optimization problem with a lo...

Optimal placement and sizing of DG in distribution network is an optimization problem with continuous and discrete variables. Many researchers have used evolutionary methods for finding the optimal DG placement. This paper proposes a shuffled frog leaping algorithm (SFLA) for optimal placement and sizing of distributed generation (DG) in radial distribution system to minimize the total real pow...

Shuffled frog-leaping algorithm (SFLA) is a heuristic optimization technique based on swarm intelligence that is inspired by foraging behavior of the swarm of frogs. The traditional SFLA is easy to be premature convergence. So, we present an improved shuffled frog-leaping algorithm with single step search strategy and interactive learning rule(called ‘SI-SFLA’). Single step search strategy enha...

There are various automatic programming models inspired by evolutionary computation techniques. Due to the importance of devising an automatic mechanism to explore the complicated search space of mathematical problems where numerical methods fails, evolutionary computations are widely studied and applied to solve real world problems. One of the famous algorithm in optimization problem is shuffl...

this paper presents a new damping controller design based on fuzzy wavelet neural network (fwnn) to damp the multi-machine power system low frequency oscillations. the error between the desired system output and the output of control object is directly utilized to tune the network parameters. the orthogonal least square (ols) algorithm is used to purify the wavelets for each rule and determine ...
