In this paper, an improved method based on evolutionary algorithm for speech signal denoising is proposed. In this approach, the stochastic global optimization techniques such as Artificial Bee Colony(ABC), Cuckoo Search (CS)algorithm, and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique are exploited for learning the parameters of adaptive filtering function required for optimum performance. It was...

In cooperative relay networks with multiple users and multiple potential relays, which relay nodes are selected has great impact on the system performance. It is an optimization problem for selecting suitable relay nodes. The exhaustive search can solve this problem but the complexity will increase factorially with the network size, i.e., the number of users and the number of relays in the netw...

Tuning of the system and the controller parameters always constituted an important part of the control applications in power system. These processes need complex mathematical calculations including derivative elements classically. However, these nowadays accomplished more easily and in shorter times, using by iterative optimization approaches such as evolutionary or swarm intelligence based met...

In this paper, a constrained mean-variance model is constructed for the portfolio optimization problems. The model is a mixed quadratic integer programming problem, and it is too hard to solve by using the traditional optimal algorithms. The purpose of this paper is to use a heuristic algorithm to solve this problem. Combined with the differential evolution strategy, a new hybrid artificial bee...

Research on distributed task planning model for multi-autonomous underwater vehicle (MAUV). A scroll time domain quantum artificial bee colony (STDQABC) optimization algorithm is proposed to solve the multi-AUV optimal task planning scheme. In the uncertain marine environment, the rolling time domain control technique is used to realize a numerical optimization in a narrowed time range. Rolling...
