background: epilepsy is a severe disorder of the central nervous system that predisposes  the person to recurrent seizures. fifty million people worldwide suffer from  epilepsy; after alzheimer's and stroke, it is the third widespread nervous disorder. objective: in this paper, an algorithm to detect the onset of epileptic seizures  based on the analysis of brain electrical signals (eeg) has be...

this paper focuses on multi-objective designing of multi-machine thyristor controlled series compensator (tcsc) using strength pareto evolutionary algorithm (spea). the tcsc parameters designing problem is converted to an optimization problem with the multi-objective function including the desired damping factor and the desired damping ratio of the power system modes, which is solved by a spea ...

in this paper, the static var compensator (svc) has been used to improve dynamic behaviour of power system. to do this, a new objective function is formulated considering power loss reduction, voltage profile improvement and loadability margin decrease. other contribution of this research is proposing a novel structure for particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithm through modifying the initia...

this paper presents the hardware simulation (based on vhdl code) of a multiple-fault tolerant cellular genetic algorithm. this study aims to increase the immunity of cellular genetic algorithm in multiple-fault situation. here, multiple-fault refers to the situation that seu (single event upset) occurs simultaneously at two or more bits of the chromosome and fitness registers. the fault model i...
