This paper presents the proportional-derivative fuzzy controller for trajectory tracking of gripping mechanism with two degrees freedom. Aiming to achieve movement without sudden starting and stopping, a polynomial velocity profile is utilized. The African vultures optimization, as one latest metaheuristic algorithms, used obtain optimal input/output scaling gains proposed according selected fi...

many real world problems can be modelled as an optimization problem. evolutionary algorithms are used to solve these problems. ant colony algorithm is a class of evolutionary algorithms that have been inspired of some specific ants looking for food in the nature. these ants leave trail pheromone on the ground to mark good ways that can be followed by other members of the group. ant colony optim...

The present research proposes a new particle swarm optimization-based metaheuristic algorithm entitled “search in forest optimizer (SIFO)” to solve the global optimization problems. is designed based on organized behavior of search teams looking for missing persons forest. According SIFO optimizer, number each including several experts field spread out across and gradually move same direction b...

This study will solve the classical vehicle routing problem, goal is to generate k trips with shortest distance for h customers predetermined locations and needs.. The proposed solution problem a hybrid sine cosine algorithm. algorithm hybridized grey wolf optimizer, which used in combination methods of tournament selection, opposition learning, mutation crossover method build optimal plan mean...

Proteins are complex organic compounds made up of smaller units called amino acids that bonded together in long chains. Protein interacts with other proteins or molecules and becomes essential the structure, function, regulation organisms' cells. The Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) results a considerably large network. Consequently, there is need to find method simplify network for easy inter...

water conveyance systems (wcss) are costly infrastructures in terms of materials, construction, maintenance and energy requirements. much attention has been given to the application of optimization methods to minimize the costs associated with such infrastructures. historically, traditional optimization techniques have been used, such as linear and non-linear programming. in this paper, applica...
