Human resource allocation for multiple scientific research projects via improved pigeon-inspired optimization algorithm

Aiming at the complex and restrictive characteristics of human resource allocation in multiple scientific university research projects, an improved pigeon-inspired optimization(IPIO) algorithm is proposed wherein loss minimization and the shortest project delay time are considered as optimization goals. Firstly, mathematical modelling of the problem is carried out, and the multi-objective optimization problem is transformed into a single-objective optimization problem by means of a weighted solution. In the second step, the traditional pigeon-inspired optimization(PIO) algorithm is discretized, and an adaptive parameter strategy is adopted to improve the shortcomings of the algorithm itself. Finally, by comparing the simulation results with the original algorithm and the genetic algorithm in the optimization of human resource allocation in multiple projects, the feasibility and superiority of the proposed algorithm in the optimization of human resource allocation in multi-scientific research projects is verified.     

Hybrid membrane computing and pigeon-inspired optimization algorithm for brushless direct current motor parameter design

Biological object recognition approach using space variant resolution and pigeon-inspired optimization for UAV

Recognizing the target from a rotated and scaled image is an important and difficult task for computer vision. Visual system of humans has a unique space variant resolution mechanism (SVR) and log-polar transformations (LPT) is a mapping method that is invariant to rotation and scale. Motivated by biological vision, we propose a novel global LPT based template-matching algorithm (GLPT-TM) which is invariant to rotational and scale changes; and with pigeon-inspired optimization (PIO) used to optimize search strategy, a hybrid model of SVR and pigeon-inspired optimization (SVRPIO) is proposed to accomplish object recognition for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) with rotational and scale changes of the target. To demonstrate the efficiency, effectiveness and reliability of the proposed method, a series of experiments are carried out. By rotating and scaling the sample image randomly and recognizing the target with the method, the experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method is not only efficient due to the optimization, but effective and accurate in recognizing the target for UAV.

Dynamic multi-objective differential evolution algorithm based on the information of evolution progress

The multi-objective differential evolution(MODE) algorithm is an effective method to solve multi-objective optimization problems. However, in the absence of any information of evolution progress, the optimization strategy of the MODE algorithm still appears as an open problem. In this paper, a dynamic multi-objective differential evolution algorithm, based on the information of evolution progress(DMODE-IEP), is developed to improve the optimization performance. The main contributions of DMODE-IEP are as follows. First, the information of evolution progress, using the fitness values, is proposed to describe the evolution progress of MODE. Second, the dynamic adjustment mechanisms of evolution parameter values, mutation strategies and selection parameter value based on the information of evolution progress, are designed to balance the global exploration ability and the local exploitation ability. Third, the convergence of DMODE-IEP is proved using the probability theory. Finally, the testing results on the standard multi-objective optimization problem and the wastewater treatment process verify that the optimization effect of DMODE-IEP algorithm is superior to the other compared state-of-the-art multi-objective optimization algorithms, including the quality of the solutions, and the optimization speed of the algorithm.

求解约束优化问题的偏好多目标进化算法简

Constrained optimization problems (COPs) are converted into the bi-objective optimization problem and solved with a new preference based multi-objective evolutionary algorithm. A new hybrid crossover operator is proposed to improve the search ability in the evolutionary process, and also a novel fitness function with preference based on the achievement scalarizing function (ASF) which is used in the method of weighted metrics in multi-objective optimization is presented. The new fitness measures the merits of individuals by the weighting distance from individuals to the reference point, where the reference point and the weighting vector afford the preference for selection. In different evolutionary stages, the reference point and weighting vector are chosen adaptively according to the individuals in population to make a tradeoff between the preferences to the two objectives. Numerical experiments for several standard test functions with different characteristics illustrate that the new proposed algorithm is effective and efficient.
