MRC-PSO algorithm utilizes a semi-rasterization environment modeling technique and inte-grates the geometric gradient law of ASMs which distinguishes itself from other collaborative path planning algorithms by fully considering the coupling between collaborative paths. Then, MRC-PSO algorithm conducts chunked stepwise recursive evo-lution of particles while incorporating circumvent, coordination, and smoothing operators which facilitates local selection opti-mization of paths, gradually reducing algorithmic space, accele-rating convergence, and enhances path cooperativity. Simula-tion experiments comparing the MRC-PSO algorithm with the PSO algorithm, genetic algorithm and operational area cluster real-time restriction (OACRR)-PSO algorithm, which demon-strate that the MRC-PSO algorithm has a faster convergence speed, and the average number of iterations is reduced by approximately 75%. It also proves that it is equally effective in resolving complex scenarios involving multiple obstacles. More-over it effectively addresses the problem of path crossing and can better satisfy the requirements of multi-platform collabora-tive path planning. The experiments are conducted in three col-laborative operation modes, namely, three-to-two, three-to-three, and four-to-two, and the outcomes demonstrate that the algorithm possesses strong universality.展开更多

Among the most evoked control strategies adopted in this field to overcome these drawbacks presented in classical drive, it is worth mentioning the use of the second order sliding mode control(SOSMC) based on the super twisting algorithm(STA) combined with the fuzzy logic control(FSOSMC). In order to realize the optimal control performance, the FSOSMC parameters are adjusted using an optimization algorithm based on the genetic algorithm(GA). The performances of the envisaged control scheme, called G-FSOSMC, are investigated against G-SOSMC, G-PI and BBO-FSOSMC algorithms. The proposed controller scheme is efficient in reducing the torque and flux ripples, and successfully suppresses chattering. The effects of parametric uncertainties do not affect system performance.展开更多

A new optimization algorithm based on kinetic-molecular theory(KMTOA) is proposed. In the KMTOA three operators are designed: attraction, repulsion and wave. The attraction operator simulates the molecular attraction, with the molecules moving towards the optimal ones, which makes possible the optimization. The repulsion operator simulates the molecular repulsion, with the molecules diverging from the optimal ones. The wave operator simulates the thermal molecules moving irregularly, which enlarges the searching spaces and increases the population diversity and global searching ability. Experimental results indicate that KMTOA prevails over other algorithms in the robustness, solution quality, population diversity and convergence speed.展开更多

CEM was adopted to search the minimum safety factor in slope stability analysis and the results show that CEM holds advantages over EM and CM. It combines the merits of two and is more stable and efficient. For further improvement, two CEM hybrid algorithms based on predatory search (PS) strategies were proposed, both of which consist of modified algorithms and the search area of which is dynamically adjusted by changing restriction. The CEM-PS1 adopts theoretical framework of original predatory search strategy. The CEM-PS2 employs the idea of area-restricted search learned from predatory search strategy, but the algorithm structure is simpler. Both the CEM-PS1 and CEM-PS2 have been demonstrated more effective and efficient than the others. As for complex method which locates in hybrid algorithm, the optimization can be achieved at a convergence precision of 1×10-3, which is recommended to use.展开更多

文摘Based on the deficiency of time convergence and variability of Web services selection for services composition supporting cross-enterprises collaboration,an algorithm QCDSS(QoS constraints of dynamic Web services selection)to resolve dynamic Web services selection with QoS global optimal path,was proposed.The essence of the algorithm was that the problem of dynamic Web services selection with QoS global optimal path was transformed into a multi-objective services composition optimization problem with QoS constraints.The operations of the cross and mutation in genetic algorithm were brought into PSOA(particle swarm optimization algorithm),forming an improved algorithm(IPSOA)to solve the QoS global optimal problem.Theoretical analysis and experimental results indicate that the algorithm can better satisfy the time convergence requirement for Web services composition supporting cross-enterprises collaboration than the traditional algorithms.

文摘In this work,a variable structure control(VSC)technique is proposed to achieve satisfactory robustness for unstable processes.Optimal values of unknown parameters of VSC are obtained using Whale optimization algorithm which was recently reported in literature.Stability analysis has been done to verify the suitability of the proposed structure for industrial processes.The proposed control strategy is applied to three different types of unstable processes including non-minimum phase and nonlinear systems.A comparative study ensures that the proposed scheme gives superior performance over the recently reported VSC system.Furthermore,the proposed method gives satisfactory results for a cart inverted pendulum system in the presence of external disturbance and noise.

文摘By combing the properties of chaos optimization method and genetic algorithm,an adaptive mutative scale chaos genetic algorithm(AMSCGA) was proposed by using one-dimensional iterative chaotic self-map with infinite collapses within the finite region of [-1,1].Some measures in the optimization algorithm,such as adjusting the searching space of optimized variables continuously by using adaptive mutative scale method and making the most circle time as its control guideline,were taken to ensure its speediness and veracity in seeking the optimization process.The calculation examples about three testing functions reveal that AMSCGA has both high searching speed and high precision.Furthermore,the average truncated generations,the distribution entropy of truncated generations and the ratio of average inertia generations were used to evaluate the optimization efficiency of AMSCGA quantificationally.It is shown that the optimization efficiency of AMSCGA is higher than that of genetic algorithm.

文摘With the development of information technology,a large number of product quality data in the entire manufacturing process is accumulated,but it is not explored and used effectively.The traditional product quality prediction models have many disadvantages,such as high complexity and low accuracy.To overcome the above problems,we propose an optimized data equalization method to pre-process dataset and design a simple but effective product quality prediction model:radial basis function model optimized by the firefly algorithm with Levy flight mechanism(RBFFALM).First,the new data equalization method is introduced to pre-process the dataset,which reduces the dimension of the data,removes redundant features,and improves the data distribution.Then the RBFFALFM is used to predict product quality.Comprehensive expe riments conducted on real-world product quality datasets validate that the new model RBFFALFM combining with the new data pre-processing method outperforms other previous me thods on predicting product quality.

文摘The direct torque control of the dual star induction motor(DTC-DSIM) using conventional PI controllers is characterized by unsatisfactory performance, such as high ripples of torque and flux, and sensitivity to parametric variations. Among the most evoked control strategies adopted in this field to overcome these drawbacks presented in classical drive, it is worth mentioning the use of the second order sliding mode control(SOSMC) based on the super twisting algorithm(STA) combined with the fuzzy logic control(FSOSMC). In order to realize the optimal control performance, the FSOSMC parameters are adjusted using an optimization algorithm based on the genetic algorithm(GA). The performances of the envisaged control scheme, called G-FSOSMC, are investigated against G-SOSMC, G-PI and BBO-FSOSMC algorithms. The proposed controller scheme is efficient in reducing the torque and flux ripples, and successfully suppresses chattering. The effects of parametric uncertainties do not affect system performance.

文摘Traditionally, the optimization algorithm based on physics principles has some shortcomings such as low population diversity and susceptibility to local extrema. A new optimization algorithm based on kinetic-molecular theory(KMTOA) is proposed. In the KMTOA three operators are designed: attraction, repulsion and wave. The attraction operator simulates the molecular attraction, with the molecules moving towards the optimal ones, which makes possible the optimization. The repulsion operator simulates the molecular repulsion, with the molecules diverging from the optimal ones. The wave operator simulates the thermal molecules moving irregularly, which enlarges the searching spaces and increases the population diversity and global searching ability. Experimental results indicate that KMTOA prevails over other algorithms in the robustness, solution quality, population diversity and convergence speed.

文摘In the view of the disadvantages of complex method (CM) and electromagnetism-like algorithm (EM), complex electromagnetism-like hybrid algorithm (CEM) was proposed by embedding complex method into electromagnetism-like algorithm as local optimization algorithm. CEM was adopted to search the minimum safety factor in slope stability analysis and the results show that CEM holds advantages over EM and CM. It combines the merits of two and is more stable and efficient. For further improvement, two CEM hybrid algorithms based on predatory search (PS) strategies were proposed, both of which consist of modified algorithms and the search area of which is dynamically adjusted by changing restriction. The CEM-PS1 adopts theoretical framework of original predatory search strategy. The CEM-PS2 employs the idea of area-restricted search learned from predatory search strategy, but the algorithm structure is simpler. Both the CEM-PS1 and CEM-PS2 have been demonstrated more effective and efficient than the others. As for complex method which locates in hybrid algorithm, the optimization can be achieved at a convergence precision of 1×10-3, which is recommended to use.

文摘In order to solve the flexible job shop scheduling problem with variable batches,we propose an improved multiobjective optimization algorithm,which combines the idea of inverse scheduling.First,a flexible job shop problem with the variable batches scheduling model is formulated.Second,we propose a batch optimization algorithm with inverse scheduling in which the batch size is adjusted by the dynamic feedback batch adjusting method.Moreover,in order to increase the diversity of the population,two methods are developed.One is the threshold to control the neighborhood updating,and the other is the dynamic clustering algorithm to update the population.Finally,a group of experiments are carried out.The results show that the improved multi-objective optimization algorithm can ensure the diversity of Pareto solutions effectively,and has effective performance in solving the flexible job shop scheduling problem with variable batches.
文摘One of the surface mining methods is open-pit mining,by which a pit is dug to extract ore or waste downwards from the earth’s surface.In the mining industry,one of the most significant difficulties is long-term production scheduling(LTPS)of the open-pit mines.Deterministic and uncertainty-based approaches are identified as the main strategies,which have been widely used to cope with this problem.Within the last few years,many researchers have highly considered a new computational type,which is less costly,i.e.,meta-heuristic methods,so as to solve the mine design and production scheduling problem.Although the optimality of the final solution cannot be guaranteed,they are able to produce sufficiently good solutions with relatively less computational costs.In the present paper,two hybrid models between augmented Lagrangian relaxation(ALR)and a particle swarm optimization(PSO)and ALR and bat algorithm(BA)are suggested so that the LTPS problem is solved under the condition of grade uncertainty.It is suggested to carry out the ALR method on the LTPS problem to improve its performance and accelerate the convergence.Moreover,the Lagrangian coefficients are updated by using PSO and BA.The presented models have been compared with the outcomes of the ALR-genetic algorithm,the ALR-traditional sub-gradient method,and the conventional method without using the Lagrangian approach.The results indicated that the ALR is considered a more efficient approach which can solve a large-scale problem and make a valid solution.Hence,it is more effectual than the conventional method.Furthermore,the time and cost of computation are diminished by the proposed hybrid strategies.The CPU time using the ALR-BA method is about 7.4%higher than the ALR-PSO approach.
