Due to its memory ability and simple structure, BSA has powerful capability to find global optimal solutions. However, the algorithm is still insufficient in balancing the exploration and the exploitation. Therefore, an improved adaptive backtracking search optimization algorithm combined with modified Hooke-Jeeves pattern search is proposed for numerical global optimization. It has two main parts: the BSA is used for the exploration phase and the modified pattern search method completes the exploitation phase. In particular, a simple but effective strategy of adapting one of BSA's important control parameters is introduced. The proposed algorithm is compared with standard BSA, three state-of-the-art evolutionary algorithms and three superior algorithms in IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation 2014(IEEE CEC2014) over six widely-used benchmarks and 22 real-parameter single objective numerical optimization benchmarks in IEEE CEC2014. The results of experiment and statistical analysis demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed algorithm.展开更多

During design, it is a frequent practice, therefore, to give recommended values by analog based on experience. It is a key point in current research to make use of the displacement back analytic method to comparatively accurately determine the parameters of the surrounding rock whereas artificial intelligence possesses an exceptionally strong capability of identifying, expressing and coping with such complex non-linear relationships. The parameters can be verified by searching the optimal network structure, using back analysis on measured data to search optimal parameters and performing direct computation of the obtained results. In the current paper, the direct analysis is performed with the biological emulation system and the software of Fast Lagrangian Analysis of Continua (FLAC3D. The high non-linearity, network reasoning and coupling ability of the neural network are employed. The output vector required of the training of the neural network is obtained with the numerical analysis software. And the overall space search is conducted by employing the Adaptive Immunity Algorithm. As a result, we are able to avoid the shortcoming that multiple parameters and optimized parameters are easy to fall into a local extremum. At the same time, the computing speed and efficiency are increased as well. Further, in the paper satisfactory conclusions are arrived at through the intelligent direct-back analysis on the monitored and measured data at the Erdaoya tunneling project. The results show that the physical and mechanical parameters obtained by the intelligent direct-back analysis proposed in the current paper have effectively improved the recommended values in the original prospecting data. This is of practical significance to the appraisal of stability and informationization design of the surrounding rock.展开更多

Our approach introduces an extension of Mendonca-Cipolla and G. Chesi's self-calibration for the positionbased visual servo technique which exploits the singular value property of the essential matrix. Specifically, a suitable dynamic online cost function is generated according to the property of the three singular values. The visual servo process is carried out simultaneous to the dynamic self-calibration, and then the cost function is minimized using the adaptive genetic algorithm instead of the gradient descent method in G. Chesi's approach. Moreover, this method overcomes the limitation that the initial parameters must be selected close to the true value, which is not constant in many cases. It is not necessary to know exactly the camera intrinsic parameters when using our approach, instead, coarse coding bounds of the five parameters are enough for the algorithm, which can be done once and for all off-line. Besides, this algorithm does not require knowledge of the 3D model of the object. Simulation experiments are carried out and the results demonstrate that the proposed approach provides a fast convergence speed and robustness against unpredictable perturbations of camera parameters, and it is an effective and efficient visual servo algorithm.展开更多

Although many adaptation/self-adaptation techniques can automatically find suitable control parameters for the DE, most techniques are based on pop- ulation information which may be misleading in solving complex optimization problems. Therefore, a self-adaptive DE (i.e., JADE) using two-phase parameter control scheme (TPC-JADE) is proposed to enhance the performance of DE in the current study. In the TPC-JADE, an adaptation technique is utilized to generate the control parameters in the early population evolution, and a well-known empirical guideline is used to update the control parameters in the later evolution stages. The TPC-JADE is compared with four state-of-the-art DE variants on two famous test suites (i.e., IEEE CEC2005 and IEEE CEC2015). Results indicate that the overall performance of the TPC-JADE is better than that of the other compared algorithms. In addition, the proposed algorithm is utilized to obtain optimal nutrient and inducer feeding for the Lee-Ramirez bioreactor. Experimental results show that the TPC-JADE can perform well on an actual dynamic optimization problem.展开更多

Based on the framework of minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR), the proposed algorithm jointly updates a transforming matrix and a reduced-rank filter. Each column of the transforming matrix is treated as an independent direction vector and updates the weight values of each dimension within a subspace. In addition, the direction vector rotation improves the performance of the algorithm by reducing the uncertainties due to the direction error. Simulation results show that the RJIO-DA algorithm has lower complexity and faster convergence than other conventional reduced-rank algorithms.展开更多

In the TPC-JADE, an adaptation technique is utilized to generate the control parameters in the early population evolution, and a well-known empirical guideline is used to update the control parameters in the later evolution stages. The TPC-JADE is compared with four state-of-the-art DE variants on two famous test suites (i.e., IEEE CEC2005 and IEEE CEC2015). Results indicate that the overall performance of the TPC-JADE is better than that of the other compared algorithms. In addition, the proposed algorithm is utilized to obtain optimal nutrient and inducer feeding for the Lee-Ramirez bioreactor. Experimental results show that the TPC-JADE can perform well on an actual dynamic optimization problem.

文摘An adaptive beamforming algorithm named robust joint iterative optimizationdirection adaptive (RJIO-DA) is proposed for large-array scenarios. Based on the framework of minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR), the proposed algorithm jointly updates a transforming matrix and a reduced-rank filter. Each column of the transforming matrix is treated as an independent direction vector and updates the weight values of each dimension within a subspace. In addition, the direction vector rotation improves the performance of the algorithm by reducing the uncertainties due to the direction error. Simulation results show that the RJIO-DA algorithm has lower complexity and faster convergence than other conventional reduced-rank algorithms.
