In this study proposes an evaluation of different computational intelligences, i.e Fast-Evolutionary Algorithm (FEP), Firefly Algorithm (FA) and Mutate-Cuckoo Search Algorithm (MCSA) for solving single-objective optimization problem. FEP and MCSA are based on the conventional Evolutionary Programming (EP) and Cuckoo Search Algorithm (CSA) with modifications and adjustment to boost up their search ability. In this paper, four different benchmark functions were used to compare the optimization performance of these three algorithms. The results showed that MCSA is better compare with FEP and FA in term of fitness value while FEP is fastest algorithm in term of computational time compare with other two algorithms.

In this chapter a multi objective optimal power flow (OPF) is obtained by using latest Metaheuristic optimization techniques BAT search algorithm (BAT), cuckoo search algorithm (CSA) and firefly algorithm (FA) with Unified power flow controller (UPFC). UPFC is a voltage source converter type Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System (FACTS) device. It is able to control the voltage magnitudes, voltage angles and line impedances individually or simultaneously. To enhance the power system performance, the optimal power flow has been incorporated UPFC along with BAT algorithm, cuckoo search algorithm and firefly algorithm based multi objective function comprising of two objectives those are total real power loss and the fuel cost of total real power generation. The BAT algorithm, cuckoo search algorithm and firefly algorithm based OPF has been examined and tested on a 5 bus test system and modified IEEE 30 bus system without and with UPFC. The results obtained with BAT algorithm, cuckoo search algorithm and firefly algorithms are compared with Differential Evaluation (DE).

Abstract In this paper, we present a new hybrid algorithm which is a combination of a hybrid Cuckoo search algorithm and Firefly optimization. We focus in this research on a hybrid method combining two heuristic optimization techniques, Cuckoo Search (CS) and Firefly Algorithm (FA) for the global optimization. Denoted as CS-FA. The hybrid CS-FA technique incorporates concepts from CS and FA and creates individuals in a new generation not only by random walk as found in CS but also by mechanisms of FA. To analyze the benefits of hybridization, we have comparatively evaluated the classical Cuckoo Search and Firefly Algorithms versus the proposed hybridized algorithms (CS-FA).

Vehicular Adhoc Networks (VANET) are thought-about as a mainstay in Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). For an efficient vehicular Adhoc network, broadcasting i.e. sharing a safety related message across all vehicles and infrastructure throughout the network is pivotal. Hence an efficient TDMA based MAC protocol for VANETs would serve the purpose of broadcast scheduling. At the same time, high mobility, influential traffic density, and an altering network topology makes it strenuous to form an efficient broadcast schedule. In this paper an evolutionary approach has been chosen to solve the broadcast scheduling problem in VANETs. The paper focusses on identifying an optimal solution with minimal TDMA frames and increased transmissions. These two parameters are the converging factor for the evolutionary algorithms employed. The proposed approach uses an Adaptive Discrete Firefly Algorithm (ADFA) for solving the Broadcast Scheduling Problem (BSP). The results are compared with traditional evolutionary approaches such as Genetic Algorithm and Cuckoo search algorithm. A mathematical analysis to find the probability of achieving a time slot is done using Markov Chain analysis.

AbstractIn wireless rechargeable sensor network, the deployment of charger node directly affects the overall charging utility of sensor network. Aiming at this problem, this paper abstracts the charger deployment problem as a multi-objective optimization problem that maximizes the received power of sensor nodes and minimizes the number of charger nodes. First, a network model that maximizes the sensor node received power and minimizes the number of charger nodes is constructed. Second, an improved cuckoo search (ICS) algorithm is proposed. This algorithm is based on the traditional cuckoo search algorithm (CS) to redefine its step factor, and then use the mutation factor to change the nesting position of the host bird to update the bird’s nest position, and then use ICS to find the ones that maximize the received power of the sensor node and minimize the number of charger nodes optimal solution. Compared with the traditional cuckoo search algorithm and multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm, the simulation results show that the algorithm can effectively increase the receiving power of sensor nodes, reduce the number of charger nodes and find the optimal solution to meet the conditions, so as to maximize the network charging utility.
