The congestion problem in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is quite different from that in traditional networks. Most current congestion control algorithms try to alleviate the congestion by reducing the rate at which the source nodes inject packets into the network. However, this traffic control scheme always decreases the throughput so as to violate fidelity level required by the application. In...
Some researchers have illustrated how individual and groups of bacteria forage for nutrients and to model it as a distributed optimization process, which is called the bacterial foraging optimization (BFOA). One of the major driving forces of BFOA is the chemotactic movement of a virtual bacterium, which models a trial solution of the optimization problem. In this article, we analyze the chemotactic...
Differential evolution (DE) has emerged as one of the fast, robust, and efficient global search heuristics of current interest. This paper describes an application of DE to the automatic clustering of large unlabeled data sets. In contrast to most of the existing clustering techniques, the proposed algorithm requires no prior knowledge of the data to be classified. Rather, it determines the optimal...
