Abstract An ameliorative cultural algorithm (CA) based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) and whale optimization algorithm (WOA) is raised (CA-PSOWOA), so as to conquer the defects of WOA and PSO, such as poor global exploration ability and easy fall into local optimal solution. Firstly, a nonlinear inertia weight strategy is leaded to optimize the PSO and WOA, then CA is introduced to regulate the ability of global exploration and local exploitation of PSO and WOA. By testing on benchmark functions, it is proved that CA-PSOWOA improves the global exploration ability and solution accuracy, and its performance is better than the traditional PSO and WOA, and other algorithms.

In the model of flexible neural tree (FNT), parameters are usually optimized by particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO). Because PSO has many shortcomings such as being easily trapped in local optimal solution and so on, an improved algorithm based on quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (QPSO) is presented. It is combined with the factor of speed, gather and disturbance, so as to be used to optimize the parameters of FNT. This paper applies the improved quantum particle swarm optimization algorithm to the neural tree, and compares it with the standard particle swarm algorithm in the optimization of FNT. The result shows that the proposed algorithm is with a better expression, thus improves the performance of the FNT.

An improved Quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization algorithm is proposed for 0-1 knapsack problem.In the new algorithm, the inertia weight is expressed as functions of particle evolution velocity and particle aggregation by defining particle evolution velocity and particle aggregation so that the inertia weight has adaptability. At the same time, slowly varying function is introduced to the traditional location updating formula so that the local optimal solution can be effectively overcome. The simulation experiments show that improved Quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization algorithm has better convergence and stability in solving knapsack problem.

The particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) is a widely used swarm-based natural inspired optimization algorithm. However, it suffers search stagnation from being trapped into a sub-optimal solution in an optimization problem. This paper proposes a novel hybrid algorithm (SDPSO) to improve its performance on local searches. The algorithm merges two strategies, the static exploitation (SE, a velocity updating strategy considering inertia-free velocity), and the direction search (DS) of Rosenbrock method, into the original PSO. With this hybrid, on the one hand, extensive exploration is still maintained by PSO; on the other hand, the SE is responsible for locating a small region, and then the DS further intensifies the search. The SDPSO algorithm was implemented and tested on unconstrained benchmark problems (CEC2014) and some constrained engineering design problems. The performance of SDPSO is compared with that of other optimization algorithms, and the results show that SDPSO has a competitive performance.

Discrete particle swarm optimization is one of the most recently developed population-based meta-heuristic optimization algorithm in swarm intelligence that can be used in any discrete optimization problems. This article presents a discrete particle swarm optimization algorithm to efficiently schedule the tasks in the heterogeneous multiprocessor systems. All the optimization algorithms share a common algorithmic step, namely population initialization. It plays a significant role because it can affect the convergence speed and also the quality of the final solution. The random initialization is the most commonly used method in majority of the evolutionary algorithms to generate solutions in the initial population. The initial good quality solutions can facilitate the algorithm to locate the optimal solution or else it may prevent the algorithm from finding the optimal solution. Intelligence should be incorporated to generate the initial population in order to avoid the premature convergence. This article presents a discrete particle swarm optimization algorithm, which incorporates opposition-based technique to generate initial population and greedy algorithm to balance the load of the processors. Make span, flow time, and reliability cost are three different measures used to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed discrete particle swarm optimization algorithm for scheduling independent tasks in distributed systems. Computational simulations are done based on a set of benchmark instances to assess the performance of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper a Progressive particle swarm optimization algorithm (PPS) is used to solve optimal reactive power problem. A Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm maintains a swarm of particles, where each particle has position vector and velocity vector which represents the potential solutions of the particles. These vectors are modernized from the information of global best (Gbest) and personal best (Pbest) of the swarm. All particles move in the search space to obtain optimal solution. In this paper a new concept is introduced of calculating the velocity of the particles with the help of Euclidian Distance conception. This new-fangled perception helps in finding whether the particle is closer to Pbest or Gbest and updates the velocity equation consequently. By this we plan to perk up the performance in terms of the optimal solution within a rational number of generations. The projected PPS has been tested on standard IEEE 30 bus test system and simulation results show clearly the better performance of the proposed algorithm in reducing the real power loss with control variables are within the limits.

Abstract In this paper, we have proposed a hybrid bio-inspired algorithm which takes the merits of whale optimization algorithm (WOA) and adaptive particle swarm optimization (APSO). The proposed algorithm is referred as the hybrid WOA_APSO algorithm. We utilize a convolutional neural network (CNN) for classification purposes. Extensive experiments are performed to evaluate the performance of the proposed model. Here, pre-processing and segmentation are performed on 120 lung CT images for obtaining the segmented tumored and non-tumored region nodule. The statistical, texture, geometrical and structural features are extracted from the processed image using different techniques. The optimized feature selection plays a crucial role in determining the accuracy of the classification algorithm. The novel variant of whale optimization algorithm and adaptive particle swarm optimization, hybrid bio-inspired WOA_APSO, is proposed for selecting optimized features. The feature selection grouping is applied by embedding linear discriminant analysis which helps in determining the reduced dimensions of subsets. Twofold performance comparisons are done. First, we compare the performance against the different classification techniques such as support vector machine, artificial neural network (ANN) and CNN. Second, the computational cost of the hybrid WOA_APSO is compared with the standard WOA and APSO algorithms. The experimental result reveals that the proposed algorithm is capable of automatic lung tumor detection and it outperforms the other state-of-the-art methods on standard quality measures such as accuracy (97.18%), sensitivity (97%) and specificity (98.66%). The results reported in this paper are encouraging; hence, these results will motivate other researchers to explore more in this direction.

Based on the pursuit of different goals in the operation of the microgrid, it is not possible to meet the lowest cost and the least pollution at the same time. From the perspective of economy and environmental protection, a microgrid model including photovoltaic power generation, wind power generation, micro gas turbine, fuel cell and energy storage device is proposed. This paper establishes a comprehensive benefit objective function that considers both microgrid fuel cost, maintenance management cost, depreciation cost, interaction cost with public grid and pollutant treatment cost. In order to avoid the defect that the traditional particle swarm optimization algorithm is easy to fall into the local optimal solution, this paper uses the combination of simulated annealing algorithm and particle swarm optimization algorithm to compare with the traditional particle swarm optimization algorithm to obtain a more suitable method for microgrid operation. Finally, a typical microgrid in China is taken as an example to verify the feasibility of the algorithm.

The characteristics of airborne multi-sensor task allocation problem are analyzed, and an airborne multi-sensor task allocation model is established. In order to solve the problems of local convergence and slow convergence of the traditional Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm, the structure and parameters of the existing Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm are adjusted, and the direction coefficient and far away factor are introduced to control the velocity and direction of the particle far away from the worst solution, so that the particle moves away from the worst solution while moving to the optimal solution. Based on the improved Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm, an airborne multi-sensor task allocation method is proposed using maximum detection probability as objective function, and the algorithm is simulated. The simulation results show that this algorithm can effectively allocate tasks and improve allocation effects.
