so far various methods for optimization presented and one of most popular of them are optimization algorithms based on swarm intelligence and also one of most successful of them is particle swarm optimization (pso). prior some efforts by applying fuzzy logic for improving defects of pso such as trapping in local optimums and early convergence has been done. moreover to overcome the problem of i...

Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is proposed in our research to generate Fuzzy Controller, a fuzzy logic control (FLC) is proposed to control manufacturing system presented by mmachine line as an m-order state-space. As results indicated, use particle swarm optimization (PSO) method for optimizing a fuzzy logic controller (FLC) for manufacturing system is better than that of fuzzy logic contro...

in this paper a novel direct adaptive fuzzy system is proposed to control flexible-joints robot including actuator dynamics. the design includes two interior loops: the inner loop controls the motor position using proposed approach while the outer loop controls the joint angle of the robot using a pid control law. one novelty of this paper is the use of a pso algorithm for optimizing the contro...

this paper presents an efficient hybrid method, namely fuzzy particleswarm optimization (fpso) and fuzzy c-means (fcm) algorithms, to solve the fuzzyclustering problem, especially for large sizes. when the problem becomes large, thefcm algorithm may result in uneven distribution of data, making it difficult to findan optimal solution in reasonable amount of time. the pso algorithm does find ago...

this paper presents a fuzzy decision-making approach to deal with a clustering supplier problem in a supply chain system. during recent years, determining suitable suppliers in the supply chain has become a key strategic consideration. however, the nature of these decisions is usually complex and unstructured. in general, many quantitative and qualitative factors, such as quality, price, and fl...

in this article, multiple-product pvrp with pickup and delivery that is used widely in goods distribution or other service companies, especially by railways, was introduced. a mathematical formulation was provided for this problem. each product had a set of vehicles which could carry the product and pickup and delivery could simultaneously occur. to solve the problem, two meta-heuristic methods...

This paper proposes a TSK-type Neuro-Fuzzy system tuned with a novel learning algorithm. The proposed algorithm used an improved version of the standard Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm, it employs several sub-swarms to explore the search space more efficiently. Each particle in a sub-swarm correct her position based on the best other positions, and the useful information is exchanged amon...

In this work Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques like Fuzzy logic, Genetic Algorithms and Particle Swarm Optimization have been used to improve the performance of the Automatic Generation Control (AGC) system. Instead of applying Genetic Algorithms and Particle swarm optimization independently for optimizing the parameters of the conventional AGC with PI controller, an intelligent tuned Fuz...

Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is a metaheuristic optimization algorithm that owes much of its allure to its simplicity and its high effectiveness in solving sophisticated optimization problems. However, since the performance of the standard PSO is prone to being trapped in local extrema, abundant variants of PSO have been proposed by far. For instance, Fuzzy Adaptive PSO (FAPSO) algorithms ...
