Research on load balancing of parallel component programs based on quantum particle swarm optimization algorithm

Parallel component applications are often deployed on heterogeneous clusters. Load balancing is very important for their performance requirement. Existing load balancing methods have high performance cost and poor balance effect. Based on the analysis of structures of parallel component applications, we established the mathematical model of load balancing for parallel components on heterogeneous clusters. We use the quantum particle swarm optimization algorithm to search the optimal solution of the proposed mathematical model and determine the best load balancing scheme. Comparing with the methods based on real-time detection and other swarm intelligence optimization algorithms, our method has lower balance cost, less number of iterations and better performance.

An Intelligent Evaluation Method of Information Course Teaching Effect Based on Image Analysis

Due to its own limitations, the traditional teaching quality evaluation method has been unable to adapt to the development of information-based curriculum teaching. Therefore, the establishment of a scientific and intelligent teaching effect evaluation method will help to improve the teaching quality of college teachers. To solve the above problems, a student fatigue state evaluation method based on the quantum particle swarm optimization artificial neural network is proposed. Firstly, face detection is realized by adding three Haar-like feature blocks and improving the AdaBoost algorithm of a weak classifier connection. Secondly, in order to effectively improve the image imbalance, the MSR algorithm is used to enhance the face data image, which is effectively suitable for network training. Then, by readjusting the connection mode, the DenseNet is improved to fully reflect the local detail feature information of the low level. Finally, quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO) is used to optimize the DenseNet structure, which makes the optimization of network structure more automatic and solves the uncertainty of manual selection. The experimental results show that the proposed method has a good detection effect and prove the effectiveness and correctness of the proposed method.

An Intelligent Fault Diagnosis Method for CNN-SVM Circuit Breaker Based on Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization

In order to make use of fewer fault data samples to diagnose the main fault types of circuit breakers accurately in real time, an intelligent fault diagnosis method for circuit breakers based on convolutional neural network (CNN) and quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO) is proposed. Firstly, the key features of the circuit breaker operational signal are extracted through the CNN model, and the extracted feature vectors are input into the support vector machine (SVM) for fault diagnosis. In order to improve the diagnostic performance, this paper uses QPSO algorithm to optimize the parameters of the classifier, it effectively solves the local optimal problem. The experimental results show that the method presented in this paper has achieved good results in fault diagnosis of circuit breakers, and the accuracy of diagnosis is up to 100%, which highlights the superiority of this method.

Stock Price forecasting based on Quantum Particle swarm optimization

The stock market is very volatile, so the change of the stock price is also widely concerned by investors. In this paper, a new stock price forecasting model based on Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization(QPSO) , Quantum Bee Colony Optimization Algorithm(QABC) and Quantum Fruit Fly Optimization Algorithm (QFOA) is proposed. The three methods all use BP neural network to adjust the parameters of particle swarm, bee colony and Drosophila to reach the optimal parameters. Taking the daily closing price of CITIC Securities and Tianfeng Securities, a large-scale and a small-scale securities company, as the object of empirical analysis, comparing the accuracy of the three methods in predicting stocks, it also analyzes whether the size of the company has an effect on the accuracy of the model. The results show that the prediction effect of qpso is the best, and the size of the company has some influence on the prediction effect.

A Multimodal Smart Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization for Electromagnetic Design Optimization Problems

Electromagnetic design problems are generally formulated as nonlinear programming problems with multimodal objective functions and continuous variables. These can be solved by either a deterministic or a stochastic optimization algorithm. Recently, many intelligent optimization algorithms, such as particle swarm optimization (PSO), genetic algorithm (GA) and artificial bee colony (ABC), have been proposed and applied to electromagnetic design problems with promising results. However, there is no universal algorithm which can be used to solve engineering design problems. In this paper, a stochastic smart quantum particle swarm optimization (SQPSO) algorithm is introduced. In the proposed SQPSO, to tackle the premature convergence problem in order to improve the global search ability, a smart particle and a memory archive are adopted instead of mutation operations. Moreover, to enhance the exploration searching ability, a new set of random numbers and control parameters are introduced. Experimental results validate that the adopted control policy in this work can achieve a good balance between exploration and exploitation. Finally, the SQPSO has been tested on well-known optimization benchmark functions and implemented on the electromagnetic TEAM workshop problem 22. The simulation result shows an outstanding capability of the proposed algorithm in speeding convergence compared to other algorithms.
