in this paper, a new enhanced version of the particle swarm optimization (pso) is presented. an important modification is made by adding probabilistic functions into pso, and it is named probabilistic particle swarm optimization (ppso). since the variation of the velocity of particles in pso constitutes its search engine, it should provide two phases of optimization process which are: explorati...

In order to overcome the shortcomings of traditional clustering algorithms such as local optima and sensitivity to initialization, a new Optimization technique, Particle Swarm Optimization is used in association with Unsupervised Clustering techniques in this paper. This new algorithm uses the capacity of global search in PSO algorithm and solves the problems associated with traditional cluster...

This paper presents a fuzzy decision-making approach to deal with a clustering supplier problem in a supply chain system. During recent years, determining suitable suppliers in the supply chain has become a key strategic consideration. However, the nature of these decisions is usually complex and unstructured. In general, many quantitative and qualitative factors, such as quality, price, and fl...

This paper presents a novel image segmentation algorithm, which uses a biologically inspired paradigm known as swarm intelligence to segment images. A more efficient MRF based clustering algorithm that incorporated the Markov Random Field (MRF) theory and the Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization (QPSO) algorithm is proposed. the QPSO algorithm is ised to optimize the energy function which is a c...

To deal with the problem of premature convergence of the fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm based on particle swarm optimization, which is sensitive to noise and less effective when handling the data set that dimensions greater than the number of samples, a novel fuzzy c-means clustering method based on the enhanced Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm is presented. Firstly, this approach dist...

this paper presents a new nonlinear mathematical model to solve a cell formation problem which assumes that processing time and inter-arrival time of parts are random variables. in this research, cells are defined as a queue system which will be optimized via queuing theory. in this queue system, each machine is assumed as a server and each part as a customer. the grouping of machines and parts...
