It is difficult to get satisfying results by using conventional linear sta- tistical methods. Recursive feature elimination based on support vector machine (SVM RFE) is an effective algorithm for gene selection and cancer classification, which are integrated into a consistent framework. In this paper, we propose a new method to select parameters of the aforementioned algorithm implemented with Gaussian kernel SVMs as better alternatives to the common practice of selecting the apparently best parameters by using a genetic algorithm to search for a couple of optimal parameter. Fast implementation issues for this method are also discussed for pragmatic reasons. The proposed method was tested on two repre- sentative hereditary breast cancer and acute leukaemia datasets. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method per- forms well in selecting genes and achieves high classification accuracies with these genes.展开更多

One is that the follower's functions are separable with respect to the follower's variables, and the other is that the follower's functions are convex if the follower's variables are not restricted to integers. A genetic algorithm based on an exponential distribution is proposed for the aforementioned problems. First, for each fixed leader's variable x, it is proved that the optimal solution y of the follower's mixed-integer programming can be obtained by solving associated relaxed problems, and according to the convexity of the functions involved, a simplified branch and bound approach is given to solve the follower's programming for the second class of problems. Furthermore, based on an exponential distribution with a parameter λ, a new crossover operator is designed in which the best individuals are used to generate better offspring of crossover. The simulation results illustrate that the proposed algorithm is efficient and robust.展开更多

It works on a population of individuals, not just one single solution. As a result, it avoids converging to the local optimum. However, it takes too much CPU time in the late process of GA. On the other hand, in the late process Simulated Annealing (SA) converges faster than GA but it is easily trapped to local optimum. In this letter, a useful method that unifies GA and SA is introduced, which utilizes the advantage of the global search ability of GA and fast convergence of SA. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms GA in terms of CPU time without degradation of performance. It also achieves highly comparable placement cost compared to the state-of-the-art results obtained by Versatile Place and Route (VPR) Tool.展开更多

To this end information of 30 large dams constructed in seven countries across the world is gathered with their reported settlements. The results showed that the GP model is able to estimate the dam settlement properly based on four properties, void ratio of dam’s body (e), height (H), vertical deformation modulus (Ev) and shape factor (Sc) of the dam. For verification of the model applicability, obtained results compared with other research methods such as Clements’s formula and the finite element model. The comparison showed that in all cases the GP model led to be more accurate than those of performed in literature. Also a proper compatibility between the GP model and the finite element model was perceived.展开更多

文摘Currently,deep drilling operates under extreme conditions of high temperature and high pressure,demanding more from subterranean power motors.The all-metal positive displacement motor,known for its robust performance,is a critical choice for such drilling.The dimensions of the PDM are crucial for its performance output.To enhance this,optimization of the motor's profile using a genetic algorithm has been undertaken.The design process begins with the computation of the initial stator and rotor curves based on the equations for a screw cycloid.These curves are then refined using the least squares method for a precise fit.Following this,the PDM's mathematical model is optimized,and motor friction is assessed.The genetic algorithm process involves encoding variations and managing crossovers to optimize objective functions,including the isometric radius coefficient,eccentricity distance parameter,overflow area,and maximum slip speed.This optimization yields the ideal profile parameters that enhance the motor's output.Comparative analyses of the initial and optimized output characteristics were conducted,focusing on the effects of the isometric radius coefficient and overflow area on the motor's performance.Results indicate that the optimized motor's overflow area increased by 6.9%,while its rotational speed reduced by 6.58%.The torque,as tested by Infocus,saw substantial improvements of38.8%.This optimization provides a theoretical foundation for improving the output characteristics of allmetal PDMs and supports the ongoing development and research of PDM technology.
文摘In the present study a Genetic Programing model (GP) proposed for the prediction of relative crest settlement of concrete faced rock fill dams. To this end information of 30 large dams constructed in seven countries across the world is gathered with their reported settlements. The results showed that the GP model is able to estimate the dam settlement properly based on four properties, void ratio of dam’s body (e), height (H), vertical deformation modulus (Ev) and shape factor (Sc) of the dam. For verification of the model applicability, obtained results compared with other research methods such as Clements’s formula and the finite element model. The comparison showed that in all cases the GP model led to be more accurate than those of performed in literature. Also a proper compatibility between the GP model and the finite element model was perceived.

文摘Breast cancer diagnosis through mammography is a pivotal application within medical image-based diagnostics,integral for early detection and effective treatment.While deep learning has significantly advanced the analysis of mammographic images,challenges such as low contrast,image noise,and the high dimensionality of features often degrade model performance.Addressing these challenges,our study introduces a novel method integrating Genetic Algorithms(GA)with pre-trained Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)models to enhance feature selection and classification accuracy.Our approach involves a systematic process:first,we employ widely-used CNN architectures(VGG16,VGG19,MobileNet,and DenseNet)to extract a broad range of features from the Medical Image Analysis Society(MIAS)mammography dataset.Subsequently,a GA optimizes these features by selecting the most relevant and least redundant,aiming to overcome the typical pitfalls of high dimensionality.The selected features are then utilized to train several classifiers,including Linear and Polynomial Support Vector Machines(SVMs),K-Nearest Neighbors,Decision Trees,and Random Forests,enabling a robust evaluation of the method’s effectiveness across varied learning algorithms.Our extensive experimental evaluation demonstrates that the integration of MobileNet and GA significantly improves classification accuracy,from 83.33%to 89.58%,underscoring the method’s efficacy.By detailing these steps,we highlight the innovation of our approach which not only addresses key issues in breast cancer imaging analysis but also offers a scalable solution potentially applicable to other domains within medical imaging.

文摘Evolutionary algorithms(EAs)have been used in high utility itemset mining(HUIM)to address the problem of discover-ing high utility itemsets(HUIs)in the exponential search space.EAs have good running and mining performance,but they still require huge computational resource and may miss many HUIs.Due to the good combination of EA and graphics processing unit(GPU),we propose a parallel genetic algorithm(GA)based on the platform of GPU for mining HUIM(PHUI-GA).The evolution steps with improvements are performed in central processing unit(CPU)and the CPU intensive steps are sent to GPU to eva-luate with multi-threaded processors.Experiments show that the mining performance of PHUI-GA outperforms the existing EAs.When mining 90%HUIs,the PHUI-GA is up to 188 times better than the existing EAs and up to 36 times better than the CPU parallel approach.

文摘By applying Kuhn-Tucker condition the quadratic bilevel programming, a class of bilevel programming, is transformed into a single level programming problem, which can be simplified by some rule. So we can search the optimal solution in the feasible region, hence reduce greatly the searching space. Numerical experiments on several literature problems show that the new algorithm is both feasible and effective in practice.
