In the classical QBFO algorithm, the rotation angle updated by the rotation gate is discrete and constant,which cannot affect the situation of the solution space and limit the diversity of bacterial population. In this paper, an improved QBFO(IQBFO) algorithm is proposed, which can adaptively make the quantum rotation angle continuously updated and enhance the global search ability. In the initialization process, the modified probability of the optimal rotation angle is introduced to avoid the existence of invariant solutions. The modified operator of probability amplitude is adopted to further increase the population diversity.The tests based on benchmark functions verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. Moreover, compared with the integerorder PID controller, the fractional-order proportion integration differentiation(PID) controller increases the complexity of the system with better flexibility and robustness. Thus the fractional-order PID controller is applied to the servo system. The tuning results of PID parameters of the fractional-order servo system show that the proposed algorithm has a good performance in tuning the PID parameters of the fractional-order servo system.展开更多

The multicasting is provoked to various security attacks, eavesdropping etc., hence secure multicasting requires imperative significance. The secure multicast tree construction using Bacterial Foraging Optimization (BPO) algorithm is proposed to develop a secure multicast tree construction in MANET. During routing, the proposed algorithm utilizes the public routing proxy to hide identity of the sender and receiver from other nodes for maintaining confidentiality. The public routing proxy is estimated using bacterial foraging optimization algorithm and path reliability is evaluated after the each iteration. Path reliability enhances the security of the network from black hole attacker and DoS attackers compared to traditional approaches for secure multicast tree formation in MANETs. By simulation results, we have shown that the proposed technique offers authentication and confidentiality during secure multicasting which is compared to conventional multicast tree formation algorithms in MANETs.展开更多

In order to achieve an output AC voltage higher than the input DC voltage, we can use this model consisting of a pair of DC-DC converters with a load connected differentially across them. This paper aims at developing a boost inverter that is capable of achieving a very high gain, to obtain an AC voltage of 110 Vrms from a DC input of 36 V. This is exceptionally beneficial in renewable energy applications, where the input voltage garnered is quite small, and in need of stepping up for commercial use or transmission. However, aside from the voltage level itself, lowering the rise time, settling time, peak overshoot and steady state error of the system is of cardinal importance in order to maintain a reliable output voltage. Closed loop control of the differentially connected DC-DC converters is necessary to determine the optimal stable operating point. This paper addresses the above concerns through optimization of the proportional and integral constants using the novel Bacterial Foraging Algorithm, ensuring operation at the required optimal stable operating point. Moreover, load/line disturbances may occur due to which the stability of output voltage may be compromised and THD value may increase to undesirable extents. In these cases, utilization of the output voltage is no longer viable for several applications sensitive to such voltage fluctuations. We have demonstrated that our proposed model is capable of restoring/reverting to the satisfactory sinusoidal waveform fashion within a single voltage cycle. The waveform results that demonstrate the resilience of our model to such disturbances are represented appropriately.展开更多

However, severe side effects are associated with the use of antiretroviral drugs. Hence, a treatment schedule, using minimal amount of drugs, is required for maintaining a low viral load and a healthy immune system. The objective of this work is to compute the optimal dosage of antiretroviral drugs for therapy planning in HIV/AIDS patients, using intelligent optimization techniques. In this work, two computational swarm intelligence techniques known as the particle swarm optimization （PSO） and bacterial foraging optimization （BFO） in conjunction with the three-dimensional mathematical model of HIV/AIDS have been used for estimating the optimal drug dosage for administering therapy by minimization of viral load as well as the total drug concentration. Results demonstrate that, using the proposed method, it is possible to achieve minimal viral load and an improved immune system, with the estimated drug dosage. Further, it was observed that the efficiency of BFO （CD4 cells = 757 cells/mm^3 at seventh year of infection） for estimation of optimal drug dosage is higher than the PSO method （CD4 cells = 817 cells/mm^3 at seventh year of infection）. This work seems to be of high clini- cal relevance since, at present, ART is the widely used procedure for treatment of HIV infected patients.展开更多

To include valve point effects sinusoidal terms are added to the fuel cost function. This makes the ED problems highly non-linear. In order to solve such problems the best cell （or particle） biased velocity （vector） is added to the random velocity of the BFA to reduce randomness in movement （evolution） and to increase swarming. This results in the hybrid bacterial foraging algorithm （HBFA）. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed HBFA method, numerical studies have been performed for three different sample systems. Comparison of the results obtained by the HBFA with the BFA and other evolutionary algorithms clearly show that the proposed method outperforms other methods in terms of convergence rate and solution quality in solving the ED problems with valve-point effects.展开更多

文摘Non-orthogonal multiple access(NOMA)is a strong contender multicarrier waveform technique for the fth generation(5G)communication system.The high peak-to-average power ratio(PAPR)is a serious concern in designing the NOMA waveform.However,the arrangement of NOMA is different from the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing.Thus,traditional reduction methods cannot be applied to NOMA.A partial transmission sequence(PTS)is commonly utilized to minimize the PAPR of the transmitting NOMA symbol.The choice phase aspect in the PTS is the only non-linear optimization obstacle that creates a huge computational complication due to the respective non-carrying sub-blocks in the unitary NOMA symbol.In this study,an efcient phase factor is proposed by presenting a novel bacterial foraging optimization algorithm(BFOA)for PTS(BFOA-PTS).The PAPR minimization is accomplished in a two-stage process.In the initial stage,PTS is applied to the NOMA signal,resulting in the partition of the NOMA signal into an act of sub-blocks.In the second stage,the best phase factor is generated using BFOA.The performance of the proposed BFOA-PTS is thoroughly investigated and compared to the traditional PTS.The simulation outcomes reveal that the BFOA-PTS efciently optimizes the PAPR performance with inconsequential complexity.The proposed method can signicantly offer a gain of 4.1 dB and low complexity compared with the traditional OFDM.
文摘A significant advantage of medical image processing is that it allows non-invasive exploration of internal anatomy in great detail.It is possible to create and study 3D models of anatomical structures to improve treatment outcomes,develop more effective medical devices,or arrive at a more accurate diagnosis.This paper aims to present a fused evolutionary algorithm that takes advantage of both whale optimization and bacterial foraging optimization to optimize feature extraction.The classification process was conducted with the aid of a convolu-tional neural network(CNN)with dual graphs.Evaluation of the performance of the fused model is carried out with various methods.In the initial input Com-puter Tomography(CT)image,150 images are pre-processed and segmented to identify cancerous and non-cancerous nodules.The geometrical,statistical,struc-tural,and texture features are extracted from the preprocessed segmented image using various methods such as Gray-level co-occurrence matrix(GLCM),Histo-gram-oriented gradient features(HOG),and Gray-level dependence matrix(GLDM).To select the optimal features,a novel fusion approach known as Whale-Bacterial Foraging Optimization is proposed.For the classification of lung cancer,dual graph convolutional neural networks have been employed.A com-parison of classification algorithms and optimization algorithms has been con-ducted.According to the evaluated results,the proposed fused algorithm is successful with an accuracy of 98.72%in predicting lung tumors,and it outper-forms other conventional approaches.
文摘Histopathology is the investigation of tissues to identify the symptom of abnormality.The histopathological procedure comprises gathering samples of cells/tissues,setting them on the microscopic slides,and staining them.The investigation of the histopathological image is a problematic and laborious process that necessitates the expert’s knowledge.At the same time,deep learning(DL)techniques are able to derive features,extract data,and learn advanced abstract data representation.With this view,this paper presents an ensemble of handcrafted with deep learning enabled histopathological image classification(EHCDL-HIC)model.The proposed EHCDLHIC technique initially performs Weiner filtering based noise removal technique.Once the images get smoothened,an ensemble of deep features and local binary pattern(LBP)features are extracted.For the classification process,the bidirectional gated recurrent unit(BGRU)model can be employed.At the final stage,the bacterial foraging optimization(BFO)algorithm is utilized for optimal hyperparameter tuning process which leads to improved classification performance,shows the novelty of the work.For validating the enhanced execution of the proposed EHCDL-HIC method,a set of simulations is performed.The experimentation outcomes highlighted the betterment of the EHCDL-HIC approach over the existing techniques with maximum accuracy of 94.78%.Therefore,the EHCDL-HIC model can be applied as an effective approach for histopathological image classification.
文摘Renewable energy sources(RES)such as wind turbines(WT)and solar cells have attracted the attention of power system operators and users alike,thanks to their lack of environmental pollution,independence of fossil fuels,and meager marginal costs.With the introduction of RES,challenges have faced the unit commitment(UC)problem as a traditional power system optimization problem aiming to minimize total costs by optimally determining units’inputs and outputs,and specifying the optimal generation of each unit.The output power of RES such as WT and solar cells depends on natural factors such as wind speed and solar irradiation that are riddled with uncertainty.As a result,the UC problem in the presence of RES faces uncertainties.The grid consumed load is not always equal to and is randomly different from the predicted values,which also contributes to uncertainty in solving the aforementioned problem.The current study proposes a novel two-stage optimization model with load and wind farm power generation uncertainties for the security-constrained UC to overcome this problem.The new model is adopted to solve the wind-generated power uncertainty,and energy storage systems(ESSs)are included in the problem for further management.The problem is written as an uncertain optimization model which are the stochastic nature with security-constrains which included undispatchable power resources and storage units.To solve the UC programming model,a hybrid honey bee mating and bacterial foraging algorithm is employed to reduce problem complexity and achieve optimal results.
文摘This paper presents a comparative study of P&O,fuzzy P&O and BPSO fuzzy P&O control methods by using MATLAB software for optimizing the power output of the solar PV grid array.The voltage,power output and the duty cycle of the solar PV array are well presented and analyzed with an algorithm.The model consists of 66 PV Cells connected parallel and 5 PV cells connected in series to make solar PV array.The BPSO Fuzzy method generates 43.4820 MW output power more than P&O method and 150 KW more than P&O fuzzy method.This also shows that the time response of the photovoltaic system reduces to perturbations and insures the continuity of the operation at the time in response to the continued maximum power point.It also eliminates the fluctuations around MPPT.Simulation results also revealed that BPSO fuzzy P&O controller is more effective as compare with P&O and fuzzy P&O models.
文摘This paper presents a novel and efficient method for solving the economic dispatch （ED） problems with valve-point effects, by integrating the biased velocity of particle swarm optimization （PSO） to the chemotaxis, swarming and reproduction steps of bacterial foraging algorithm （BFA）. To include valve point effects sinusoidal terms are added to the fuel cost function. This makes the ED problems highly non-linear. In order to solve such problems the best cell （or particle） biased velocity （vector） is added to the random velocity of the BFA to reduce randomness in movement （evolution） and to increase swarming. This results in the hybrid bacterial foraging algorithm （HBFA）. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed HBFA method, numerical studies have been performed for three different sample systems. Comparison of the results obtained by the HBFA with the BFA and other evolutionary algorithms clearly show that the proposed method outperforms other methods in terms of convergence rate and solution quality in solving the ED problems with valve-point effects.
