The Non-Linear Programming Problems (NLPP) are computationally hard to solve as compared to the Linear Programming Problems (LPP). To solve NLPP, the available methods are Lagrangian Multipliers, Sub gradient method, Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions, Penalty and Barrier method etc. In this paper, we are applying Barrier method to convert the NLPP with equality constraint to an NLPP without constraint. We use the improved version of famous Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) method to obtain the solution of NLPP without constraint. SCILAB programming language is used to evaluate the solution on sample problems. The results of sample problems are compared on Improved PSO and general PSO.

Penelitian ini menyelidiki performa dari metode metaheuristik baru bernama symbiotic organisms search (SOS) dalam menentukan tata letak fasilitas proyek konstruksi yang optimal berdasarkan jarak tempuh pekerja. Dua buah studi kasus tata letak fasilitas digunakan untuk menguji akurasi dan konsistensi dari SOS. Sebagai tambahan, tiga metode metaheuristik lainnya, yaitu particle swarm optimization, artificial bee colony, dan teaching–learning-based optimization, digunakan sebagai pembanding terhadap algoritma SOS. Hasil simulasi mengindikasikan bahwa algoritma SOS lebih unggul serta memiliki karakteristik untuk menghasilkan titik konvergen lebih cepat jika dibandingkan dengan metode metaheuristik lainnya dalam proses optimasi tata letak fasilitas proyek konstruksi.

Pathway information for cancer detection helps to find co-regulated gene groups whose collective expression is strongly associated with cancer development. In this paper, a collaborative multi-swarm binary particle swarm optimization (MS-BPSO) based gene selection technique is proposed that outperforms to identify the pathway marker genes. We have compared our proposed method with various statistical and pathway based gene selection techniques for different popular cancer datasets as well as a detailed comparative study is illustrated using different meta-heuristic algorithms like binary coded particle swarm optimization (BPSO), binary coded differential evolution (BDE), binary coded artificial bee colony (BABC) and genetic algorithm (GA). Experimental results show that the proposed MS-BPSO based method performs significantly better and the improved multi swarm concept generates a good subset of pathway markers which provides more effective insight to the gene-disease association with high accuracy and reliability.

In this study, the output characteristics of partial modules in a photovoltaic module array when subject to shading were first explored. Then, an improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm was applied to track the global maximum power point (MPP), with a multi-peak characteristic curve. The improved particle swarm optimization algorithm proposed, combined with the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, was used to adjust the weighting, cognition learning factor, and social learning factor, and change the number of iterations to enhance the tracking performance of the MPP tracker. Finally, MATLAB software was used to carry out a simulation and prove the improved that the PSO algorithm successfully tracked the MPP in the photovoltaic array output curve with multiple peaks. Its tracking performance is far superior to the existing PSO algorithm.
