Combining with the characteristics of genetic algorithm （GA） and particle swarm optimization （PSO）, a three-stage calibration method based on hybrid intelligent optimization is pro- posed for nonlinear camera models in this paper. The motivation is to improve the accuracy of the calibration process. In this approach, the stereo vision calibration is considered as an optimization problem that can be solved by the GA and PSO. The initial linear values can be obtained in the frost stage. Then in the second stage, two cameras＇ parameters are optimized separately. Finally, the in- tegrated optimized calibration of two models is obtained in the third stage. Direct linear transforma- tion （DLT）, GA and PSO are individually used in three stages. It is shown that the results of every stage can correctly find near-optimal solution and it can be used to initialize the next stage. Simula- tion analysis and actual experimental results indicate that this calibration method works more accu- rate and robust in noisy environment compared with traditional calibration methods. The proposed method can fulfill the requirements of robot sophisticated visual operation.展开更多

In this article, a systematical atomic-level investigation of Au–Pd bimetallic NPs is conducted by using the improved particle swarm optimization（IPSO） with quantum correction Sutton–Chen potentials（Q-SC） at different Au/Pd ratios and different sizes. In the IPSO, the simulated annealing is introduced into the classical particle swarm optimization（PSO） to improve the effectiveness and reliability. In addition, the influences of initial structure, particle size and composition on structural stability and structural features are also studied. The simulation results reveal that the initial structures have little effects on the stable structures, but influence the converging rate greatly, and the convergence rate of the mixing initial structure is clearly faster than those of the core-shell and phase structures. We find that the Au–Pd NPs prefer the structures with Au-rich in the outer layers while Pd-rich in the inner ones. Especially, when the Au/Pd ratio is 6：4, the structure of the nanoparticle（NP） presents a standardized Pd（core） Au（shell） structure.展开更多

Network-wide management and optimization problems are typicallyvery complex with a huge solution space, large number of variables, and multiple objectives. Heuristic algorithms can solve theseproblems in an acceptable time but are usually limited to some particular problem circumstances. On the other hand, evolutionaryalgorithms(EAs), which are general stochastic algorithms inspired by the natural biological evolution and/or social behavior of species, can theoretically be used to solve any complex optimization problems including those found in SDNs. This paper reviewsfour types of EAs that are widely applied in current SDNs: Genetic Algorithms(GAs), Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO), Ant Colony Optimization(ACO), and Simulated Annealing(SA) by discussing their techniques, summarizing their representative applications, and highlighting their issues and future works. To the best of our knowledge, our work is the first that compares the tech-niques and categorizes the applications of these four EAs in SDNs.展开更多
