The design results illustrate that the strategy used in this paper is sufficient and multi-point design requirements of the passenger aircraft are reached. The visualization level of non-dominant Pareto set is improved by effectively reducing the dimension without losing the primary feature of the problem.展开更多

文摘Hyperspectral(HS)image classification plays a crucial role in numerous areas including remote sensing(RS),agriculture,and the monitoring of the environment.Optimal band selection in HS images is crucial for improving the efficiency and accuracy of image classification.This process involves selecting the most informative spectral bands,which leads to a reduction in data volume.Focusing on these key bands also enhances the accuracy of classification algorithms,as redundant or irrelevant bands,which can introduce noise and lower model performance,are excluded.In this paper,we propose an approach for HS image classification using deep Q learning(DQL)and a novel multi-objective binary grey wolf optimizer(MOBGWO).We investigate the MOBGWO for optimal band selection to further enhance the accuracy of HS image classification.In the suggested MOBGWO,a new sigmoid function is introduced as a transfer function to modify the wolves’position.The primary objective of this classification is to reduce the number of bands while maximizing classification accuracy.To evaluate the effectiveness of our approach,we conducted experiments on publicly available HS image datasets,including Pavia University,Washington Mall,and Indian Pines datasets.We compared the performance of our proposed method with several state-of-the-art deep learning(DL)and machine learning(ML)algorithms,including long short-term memory(LSTM),deep neural network(DNN),recurrent neural network(RNN),support vector machine(SVM),and random forest(RF).Our experimental results demonstrate that the Hybrid MOBGWO-DQL significantly improves classification accuracy compared to traditional optimization and DL techniques.MOBGWO-DQL shows greater accuracy in classifying most categories in both datasets used.For the Indian Pine dataset,the MOBGWO-DQL architecture achieved a kappa coefficient(KC)of 97.68%and an overall accuracy(OA)of 94.32%.This was accompanied by the lowest root mean square error(RMSE)of 0.94,indicating very precise predictions with minimal error.In the case of the Pavia University dataset,the MOBGWO-DQL model demonstrated outstanding performance with the highest KC of 98.72%and an impressive OA of 96.01%.It also recorded the lowest RMSE at 0.63,reinforcing its accuracy in predictions.The results clearly demonstrate that the proposed MOBGWO-DQL architecture not only reaches a highly accurate model more quickly but also maintains superior performance throughout the training process.

文摘Robot manipulators perform a point-point task under kinematic and dynamic constraints.Due to multi-degreeof-freedom coupling characteristics,it is difficult to find a better desired trajectory.In this paper,a multi-objective trajectory planning approach based on an improved elitist non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm(INSGA-II)is proposed.Trajectory function is planned with a new composite polynomial that by combining of quintic polynomials with cubic Bezier curves.Then,an INSGA-II,by introducing three genetic operators:ranking group selection(RGS),direction-based crossover(DBX)and adaptive precision-controllable mutation(APCM),is developed to optimize travelling time and torque fluctuation.Inverted generational distance,hypervolume and optimizer overhead are selected to evaluate the convergence,diversity and computational effort of algorithms.The optimal solution is determined via fuzzy comprehensive evaluation to obtain the optimal trajectory.Taking a serial-parallel hybrid manipulator as instance,the velocity and acceleration profiles obtained using this composite polynomial are compared with those obtained using a quintic B-spline method.The effectiveness and practicability of the proposed method are verified by simulation results.This research proposes a trajectory optimization method which can offer a better solution with efficiency and stability for a point-to-point task of robot manipulators.
文摘Detecting communities in real and complex networks is a highly contested topic in network analysis.Although many metaheuristic-based algorithms for community detection have been proposed,they still cannot effectively fulfill large-scale and real-world networks.Thus,this paper presents a new discrete version of the Improved Grey Wolf Optimizer(I-GWO)algorithm named DI-GWOCD for effectively detecting communities of different networks.In the proposed DI-GWOCD algorithm,I-GWO is first armed using a local search strategy to discover and improve nodes placed in improper communities and increase its ability to search for a better solution.Then a novel Binary Distance Vector(BDV)is introduced to calculate the wolves’distances and adapt I-GWO for solving the discrete community detection problem.The performance of the proposed DI-GWOCD was evaluated in terms of modularity,NMI,and the number of detected communities conducted by some well-known real-world network datasets.The experimental results were compared with the state-of-the-art algorithms and statistically analyzed using the Friedman and Wilcoxon tests.The comparison and the statistical analysis show that the proposed DI-GWOCD can detect the communities with higher quality than other comparative algorithms.

文摘The process of selecting features or reducing dimensionality can be viewed as a multi-objective minimization problem in which both the number of features and error rate must be minimized.While it is a multi-objective problem,current methods tend to treat feature selection as a single-objective optimization task.This paper presents enhanced multi-objective grey wolf optimizer with Lévy flight and mutation phase(LMuMOGWO)for tackling feature selection problems.The proposed approach integrates two effective operators into the existing Multi-objective Grey Wolf optimizer(MOGWO):a Lévy flight and a mutation operator.The Lévy flight,a type of random walk with jump size determined by the Lévy distribution,enhances the global search capability of MOGWO,with the objective of maximizing classification accuracy while minimizing the number of selected features.The mutation operator is integrated to add more informative features that can assist in enhancing classification accuracy.As feature selection is a binary problem,the continuous search space is converted into a binary space using the sigmoid function.To evaluate the classification performance of the selected feature subset,the proposed approach employs a wrapper-based Artificial Neural Network(ANN).The effectiveness of the LMuMOGWO is validated on 12 conventional UCI benchmark datasets and compared with two existing variants of MOGWO,BMOGWO-S(based sigmoid),BMOGWO-V(based tanh)as well as Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II(NSGA-II)and Multi-objective Particle Swarm Optimization(BMOPSO).The results demonstrate that the proposed LMuMOGWO approach is capable of successfully evolving and improving a set of randomly generated solutions for a given optimization problem.Moreover,the proposed approach outperforms existing approaches in most cases in terms of classification error rate,feature reduction,and computational cost.

文摘Based on improved multi-objective particle swarm optimization(MOPSO) algorithm with principal component analysis(PCA) methodology, an efficient high-dimension multiobjective optimization method is proposed, which, as the purpose of this paper, aims to improve the convergence of Pareto front in multi-objective optimization design. The mathematical efficiency,the physical reasonableness and the reliability in dealing with redundant objectives of PCA are verified by typical DTLZ5 test function and multi-objective correlation analysis of supercritical airfoil,and the proposed method is integrated into aircraft multi-disciplinary design(AMDEsign) platform, which contains aerodynamics, stealth and structure weight analysis and optimization module.Then the proposed method is used for the multi-point integrated aerodynamic optimization of a wide-body passenger aircraft, in which the redundant objectives identified by PCA are transformed to optimization constraints, and several design methods are compared. The design results illustrate that the strategy used in this paper is sufficient and multi-point design requirements of the passenger aircraft are reached. The visualization level of non-dominant Pareto set is improved by effectively reducing the dimension without losing the primary feature of the problem.

文摘When the maneuverability of a pursuer is not significantly higher than that of an evader,it will be difficult to intercept the evader with only one pursuer.Therefore,this article adopts a two-to-one differential game strategy,the game of kind is generally considered to be angle-optimized,which allows unlimited turns,but these practices do not take into account the effect of acceleration,which does not correspond to the actual situation,thus,based on the angle-optimized,the acceleration optimization and the acceleration upper bound constraint are added into the game for consideration.A two-to-one differential game problem is proposed in the three-dimensional space,and an improved multi-objective grey wolf optimization(IMOGWO)algorithm is proposed to solve the optimal game point of this problem.With the equations that describe the relative motions between the pursuers and the evader in the three-dimensional space,a multi-objective function with constraints is given as the performance index to design an optimal strategy for the differential game.Then the optimal game point is solved by using the IMOGWO algorithm.It is proved based on Markov chains that with the IMOGWO,the Pareto solution set is the solution of the differential game.Finally,it is verified through simulations that the pursuers can capture the escapee,and via comparative experiments,it is shown that the IMOGWO algorithm performs well in terms of running time and memory usage.

文摘As future ship system,hybrid energy ship system has a wide range of application prospects for solving the serious energy crisis.However,current optimization scheduling works lack the consideration of sea conditions and navigational circumstances.There-fore,this paper aims at establishing a two-stage optimization framework for hybrid energy ship power system.The proposed framework considers multiple optimizations of route,speed planning,and energy management under the constraints of sea conditions during navigation.First,a complex hybrid ship power model consisting of diesel generation system,propulsion system,energy storage system,photovoltaic power generation system,and electric boiler system is established,where sea state information and ship resistance model are considered.With objective optimization functions of cost and greenhouse gas(GHG)emissions,a two-stage optimization framework consisting of route planning,speed scheduling,and energy management is constructed.Wherein the improved A-star algorithm and grey wolf optimization algorithm are introduced to obtain the optimal solutions for route,speed,and energy optimization scheduling.Finally,simulation cases are employed to verify that the proposed two-stage optimization scheduling model can reduce load energy consumption,operating costs,and carbon emissions by 17.8%,17.39%,and 13.04%,respectively,compared with the non-optimal control group.
文摘A new and efficient Grey Wolf Optimization(GWO)algorithm is implemented to solve real power economic dispatch(RPED)problems in this paper.The nonlinear RPED problem is one the most important and fundamental optimization problem which reduces the total cost in generating real power without violating the constraints.Conventional methods can solve the ELD problem with good solution quality with assumptions assigned to fuel cost curves without which these methods lead to suboptimal or infeasible solutions.The behavior of grey wolves which is mimicked in the GWO algorithm are leadership hierarchy and hunting mechanism.The leadership hierarchy is simulated using four types of grey wolves.In addition,searching,encircling and attacking of prey are the social behaviors implemented in the hunting mechanism.The GWO algorithm has been applied to solve convex RPED problems considering the all possible constraints.The results obtained from GWO algorithm are compared with other state-ofthe-art algorithms available in the recent literatures.It is found that the GWO algorithm is able to provide better solution quality in terms of cost,convergence and robustness for the considered ELD problems.
文摘The grey wolf optimizer(GWO)is a swarm-based intelligence optimization algorithm by simulating the steps of searching,encircling,and attacking prey in the process of wolf hunting.Along with its advantages of simple principle and few parameters setting,GWO bears drawbacks such as low solution accuracy and slow convergence speed.A few recent advanced GWOs are proposed to try to overcome these disadvantages.However,they are either difficult to apply to large-scale problems due to high time complexity or easily lead to early convergence.To solve the abovementioned issues,a high-accuracy variable grey wolf optimizer(VGWO)with low time complexity is proposed in this study.VGWO first uses the symmetrical wolf strategy to generate an initial population of individuals to lay the foundation for the global seek of the algorithm,and then inspired by the simulated annealing algorithm and the differential evolution algorithm,a mutation operation for generating a new mutant individual is performed on three wolves which are randomly selected in the current wolf individuals while after each iteration.A vectorized Manhattan distance calculation method is specifically designed to evaluate the probability of selecting the mutant individual based on its status in the current wolf population for the purpose of dynamically balancing global search and fast convergence capability of VGWO.A series of experiments are conducted on 19 benchmark functions from CEC2014 and CEC2020 and three real-world engineering cases.For 19 benchmark functions,VGWO’s optimization results place first in 80%of comparisons to the state-of-art GWOs and the CEC2020 competition winner.A further evaluation based on the Friedman test,VGWO also outperforms all other algorithms statistically in terms of robustness with a better average ranking value.
文摘In order to improve some shortcomings of the standard particle swarm optimization algorithm, such as premature convergence and slow local search speed, a double population particle swarm optimization algorithm based on Lorenz equation and dynamic self-adaptive strategy is proposed. Chaotic sequences produced by Lorenz equation are used to tune the acceleration coefficients for the balance between exploration and exploitation, the dynamic self-adaptive inertia weight factor is used to accelerate the converging speed, and the double population purposes to enhance convergence accuracy. The experiment was carried out with four multi-objective test functions compared with two classical multi-objective algorithms, non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm and multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm. The results show that the proposed algorithm has excellent performance with faster convergence rate and strong ability to jump out of local optimum, could use to solve many optimization problems.

文摘Purpose:The interval multi-objective optimization problems(IMOPs)are universal and vital uncertain optimization problems.In this study,an interval multi-objective grey wolf optimization algorithm(GWO)based on fuzzy system is proposed to solve IMOPs effectively.Design/methodology/approach:First,the classical genetic operators are embedded into the interval multiobjective GWO as local search strategies,which effectively balanced the global search ability and local development ability.Second,by constructing a fuzzy system,an effective local search activation mechanism is proposed to save computing resources as much as possible while ensuring the performance of the algorithm.The fuzzy system takes hypervolume,imprecision and number of iterations as inputs and outputs the activation index,local population size and maximum number of iterations.Then,the fuzzy inference rules are defined.It uses the activation index to determine whether to activate the local search process and sets the population size and the maximum number of iterations in the process.Findings:The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm achieves optimal hypervolume results on 9 of the 10 benchmark test problems.The imprecision achieved on 8 test problems is significantly better than other algorithms.This means that the proposed algorithm has better performance than the commonly used interval multi-objective evolutionary algorithms.Moreover,through experiments show that the local search activation mechanism based on fuzzy system proposed in this study can effectively ensure that the local search is activated reasonably in the whole algorithm process,and reasonably allocate computing resources by adaptively setting the population size and maximum number of iterations in the local search process.Originality/value:This study proposes an Interval multi-objective GWO,which could effectively balance the global search ability and local development ability.Then an effective local search activation mechanism is developed by using fuzzy inference system.It closely combines global optimization with local search,which improves the performance of the algorithm and saves computing resources.

文摘We propose a competitive binary multi-objective grey wolf optimizer(CBMOGWO)to reduce the heavy computational burden of conventional multi-objective antenna topology optimization problems.This method introduces a population competition mechanism to reduce the burden of electromagnetic(EM)simulation and achieve appropriate fitness values.Furthermore,we introduce a function of cosine oscillation to improve the linear convergence factor of the original binary multi-objective grey wolf optimizer(BMOGWO)to achieve a good balance between exploration and exploitation.Then,the optimization performance of CBMOGWO is verified on 12 standard multi-objective test problems(MOTPs)and four multi-objective knapsack problems(MOKPs)by comparison with the original BMOGWO and the traditional binary multi-objective particle swarm optimization(BMOPSO).Finally,the effectiveness of our method in reducing the computational cost is validated by an example of a compact high-isolation dual-band multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO)antenna with high-dimensional mixed design variables and multiple objectives.The experimental results show that CBMOGWO reduces nearly half of the computational cost compared with traditional methods,which indicates that our method is highly efficient for complex antenna topology optimization problems.It provides new ideas for exploring new and unexpected antenna structures based on multi-objective evolutionary algorithms(MOEAs)in a flexible and efficient manner.
