Weaving the social fabric: The past, present and future of optimization problem solving with cultural algorithms
Robert G. Reynolds, Xiangdong Che, Mostafa AliThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the performance of cultural algorithms (CAs) over a complete range of optimization problem complexities, from fixed to chaotic and…
Hybrid optimization of information granulation‐based fuzzy radial basis function neural networks
Jeoung‐Nae Choi, Sung‐Kwun Oh, Hyun‐Ki KimThe purpose of this paper is to propose an improved optimization methodology of information granulation‐based fuzzy radial basis function neural networks (IG‐FRBFNN). In the…
Off‐line signature verification and identification by pyramid histogram of oriented gradients
Bailing ZhangThe purpose of this paper is to propose an effective method to perform off‐line signature verification and identification by applying a local shape descriptor pyramid histogram of…
Experimental studies of swarm robotic chemical plume tracing using computational fluid dynamics simulations
Dimitri V. Zarzhitsky, Diana F. Spears, David R. ThayerThe purpose of this paper is to describe a multi‐robot solution to the problem of chemical source localization, in which a team of inexpensive, simple vehicles with short‐range…
Neural networks output feedback controllers using nonlinear parametric wavelet functions
