In this paper, we proposed a modified turbulent particle swarm optimization (named MTPSO) method for the temperature prediction and the Taiwan Futures Exchange (TAIFEX) forecasting, based on the two-factor fuzzy time series and particle swarm optimization. The MTPSO model can be dealt with two main factors easily and accurately, which are the lengths of intervals and the content of forecast rul...

In this work, an artificial neural network (ANN) model along with a combination of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) i.e. (PSO-ANFIS) are proposed for modeling and prediction of the propylene/propane adsorption under various conditions. Using these computational intelligence (CI) approaches, the input parameters such as adsorbent shape (S<su...

DC/DC switching converters are widely used in numerous appliances in modern existence. In this paper, the dynamic and transient response of phase shift series resonant DC/DC converter are improved using hybrid particle swarm optimization tuned fuzzy sliding mode controller under starting and load step change conditions. The aim of the control is to regulate the output voltage beneath the load c...

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a well-known instance of swarm intelligence algorithms and there have been many researches on PSO. In this paper, the author proposes an extension of PSO for solving fuzzy-valued optimization problems. In the proposed extension, genotype values (i.e. values in particle position vectors) are not real numbers but fuzzy numbers. Search processes in PSO are exte...

In this paper, an innovative hybrid recursive particle swarm optimization (HRPSO) learning algorithm with normalized fuzzy cmean (NFCM) clustering, particle swarm optimization (PSO) and recursive least-squares (RLS) is proposed to generate radial basis function networks (RBFNs) modeling system with small numbers of descriptive radial basis functions (RBFs) for fast approximating two complex and...

Particle swarm optimization is a population based optimization technique that is based on probability rules. In this technique each particle moves toward their best individual and group experience had occurred. Fundamental problems of standard PSO algorithm are the falling into the trap of local optimum and its low speed of convergence. One approach for solving the above problems is to combine ...

Associative neural memories are models of biological phenomena that allow for the storage of pattern associations and the retrieval of the desired output pattern upon presentation of a possibly noisy or incomplete version of an input pattern. In this study, we introduce fuzzy swarm particle optimization technique for convergence of associative neural memories based on fuzzy set theory. A Fuzzy ...

An image segmentation technique based on fuzzy entropy is applied for MR brain images to detect a brain tumor is presented in this paper. The proposed method performs image segmentation based on adaptive thresholding of the input MR images. The image is classified into two membership functions, whose member functions of the fuzzy region are Z-function and S-function. The optimal parameters of t...

In this paper a new method for dynamic parameter adaptation in particle swarm optimization (PSO) is proposed. PSO is a metaheuristic inspired in social behaviors, which is very useful in optimization problems. In this paper we propose an improvement to the convergence and diversity of the swarm in PSO using fuzzy logic. Simulation results show that the proposed approach improves the performance...
