Small scale wind turbines can be used in indoor facilities that are mainly either stand-alone or gridconnected systems. With grid contiguous turbines, the output from the wind turbine is directly connected to the existing mains electricity supply. For this purpose Improved Honey Bee Mating Optimization (IHBMO) technique is considered as an optimization algorithm to power system. Also the wind f...

In data mining, Association rule mining is one of the popular and simple method to find the frequent item sets from a large dataset. While generating frequent item sets from a large dataset using association rule mining, computer takes too much time. This can be improved by using artificial bee colony algorithm (ABC). The Artificial bee colony algorithm is an optimization algorithm based on the...

Artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, one of the swarm intelligence algorithms, has been proposed for continuous optimization, inspired intelligent behaviors of real honey bee colony. For the optimization problems having binary structured solution space, the basic ABC algorithm should be modified because its basic version is proposed for solving continuous optimization problems. In this study,...

Article Bee Colony (ABC) is one of the most recently introduced algorithms based on the intelligent foraging behavior of a honey bee swarm. This paper proposes a new variant of the ABC algorithm based on Von Neumann topology structure, namely Von Neumann Neighborhood Article Bee Colony (VABC). VABC significantly improves the original ABC in solving complex optimization problems. Clustering is a...

Bees Algorithm is a population-based method that is a computational bound algorithm whose inspired by the natural behavior of honey bees to finds a near-optimal solution for the search problem. Recently, many parallel swarm based algorithms have been developed for running on GPU (Graphic Processing Unit). Since nowadays developing a parallel Bee Algorithm running on the GPU becomes very importa...

Clustering is the unsupervised learning in which the data is divided into similar groups (cluster) without any prior knowledge. The emerging swarm-based algorithms become an alternative to the conventional clustering methods to enhance the quality of results. Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) Algorithm is one of the Swarm Intelligent based optimization algorithm that exhibit foraging properties of a ...

Digital filters can be broadly classified into two groups: recursive (infinite impulse response (IIR)) and non-recursive (finite impulse response (FIR)). An IIR filter can provide a much better performance than the FIR filter having the same number of coefficients. However, IIR filters might have a multi-modal error surface. Therefore, a reliable design method proposed for IIR filters must be b...

Swarm intelligence is a research branch that models the population of interacting agents or swarms that are able to self-organize. An ant colony, a flock of birds or an immune system is a typical example of a swarm system. Bees’ swarming around their hive is another example of swarm intelligence. Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) Algorithm is an optimization algorithm based on the intelligent behavio...

Artificial Bee Colony algorithm is a global optimization algorithm which is motivated by the foraging behavior of honey bee swarms. Basic Artificial Bee Colony algorithm (ABC) has the advantages of strong robustness, fast convergence and high flexibility, fewer setting parameters, but it has the disadvantages premature convergence in the later search period and the accuracy of the optimal value...
