Optimization of noisy non-linear problems plays a key role in engineering and design problems. These optimization problems can't be solved effectively by using conventional optimization methods. However, metaheuristic algorithms such as Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) seem very efficient to approach in these problems and became very popular. The efficiency of these ...

in this paper, the gain in ld-celp speech coding algorithm is predicted using three neural models, that are equipped by genetic and particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithms to optimize the structure and parameters of neural networks. elman, multi-layer perceptron (mlp) and fuzzy artmap are the candidate neural models. the optimized number of nodes in the first and second hidden layers of el...

quad rotor is a renowned underactuated unmanned aerial vehicle (uav) with widespread military and civilian applications. despite its simple structure, the vehicle suffers from inherent instability. therefore, control designers always face formidable challenge in stabilization and control goal. in this paper fuzzy membership functions of the quad rotor’s fuzzy controllers are optimized using nat...

abstract: this paper presents dynamic modelling and control of a linear prismatic series of elastic actuator. the capability of generating large torques is why this actuator is increasingly used in human-assistive robotic systems. due to having human in the loop, the actuator requires precise control. a fractional pid controller known for its improved performance is used for the control, due to...

rainfall-runoff modeling is most important component in the water resource management of river basins. the successful application of a conceptual rainfall-runoff model depends on how well it is calibrated. the degree of difficulty in solving the global optimization method is generally dependent on the dimensionality of the model and certain of the characteristics of object function. the purpose...

Genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) techniques have attracted considerable attention among heuristic optimization techniques. It is appropriate to compare their performance since both yield optimal solutions with different strategies and computational effort. In this paper, the application of these algorithms for feature selection in retinal image classification is expl...

This paper proposes an algorithm for Public Key Cryptography (PKC) using the hybrid concept of two evolutionary algorithms, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Genetic Algorithm (GA) respectively. PSO alone are fast and easy to implement, they follow the procedures of common evolutionary algorithm and posses memory feature which is absent in GA making it more valuable. In GA whole population ...

In this paper a novel invisible robust watermarking scheme for embedding and extracting a digital watermark in an image is presented. The novelty lies in determining perceptually important coefficients of transform in the host image using simple Haar Wavelet Transform (HWT) and Genetic Algorithm(GA)-Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) based hybrid optimization. Invisible watermark is embedded such...
