An attempt has been made in the paper to find globally optimal cluster centers for remote-sensed images with the proposed Rapid Genetic k-Means algorithm. The idea is to avoid the expensive crossover or fitness to produce valid clusters in pure GA and to improve the convergence time. The drawback of using pure GA in the problem is the usage of an expensive crossover or fitness to produce valid clusters...
One of the important issues in the design of fuzzy classifier is the formation of fuzzy if-then rules and the membership functions. This paper presents a Niched Pareto Genetic Algorithm (NPGA) approach to obtain the optimal rule-set and the membership function. To develop the fuzzy system the rule set and the membership functions are encoded into the chromosome and evolved simultaneously using NPGA...
This paper provides on effective Shuffled Embedded Technique (SET) to eliminate the drawback of substitution technique. Using the genetic algorithm, message bits are embedded into multiple, vague (blurred) and higher LSB layer in order to increase robustness, which is achieved by embedding secret messages in digital audio stream. Additional careful considerations are taken against the premeditated...
In this paper, an improved technique for evolving wavelet coefficients refined for compression and reconstruction of fingerprint images is presented. The FBI fingerprint compression standard uses the cdf 9/7 wavelet filter coefficients. Lifting scheme is an efficient way to represent classical wavelets with fewer filter coefficients. Here Genetic algorithm (GA) is used to evolve better lifting filter...
The basic objective of economic dispatch of electric power generation is to schedule the committed generating unit outputs so as to meet the load demand at minimum operating cost while satisfying all unit and system equality and inequality constraints. Due to increasing concern over the environmental considerations, society demands adequate and secure electricity not only at the cheapest possible...
In the design of electrical machinery, direct search methods of conventional optimization techniques are widely used. In the recent years, Genetic Algorithm (GA) has been successfully applied to the design optimization of electromagnetic devices and electrical machinery. In this paper, an optimal design method to optimize the cost of three phase Induction Motor (IM) is presented. The motor design...
Tracking of a ballistic target in its reentry phase by considering the radar measurements is a highly complex problem in nonlinear filtering. Kalman Filter (KF) is used to estimate the positions of the target when the measurements are corrupted with noise. If the measurements (range and bearing) are nonlinear then Unscented Kalman filter (UKF) can be used. For obtaining reliable estimate of the target...
An approach to detection of phishing hyperlinks using the rule based system formed by genetic algorithm is proposed, which can be utilized as a part of an enterprise solution to anti-phishing. A legitimate webpage owner can use this approach to search the web for suspicious hyperlinks. In this approach, genetic algorithm is used to evolve rules that are used to differentiate phishing link from legitimate...
Wireless communication devices are widely subjected to intruder attacks and in the existing security system, the algorithm consists of a ranging phase that uses the received signal strength to estimate a network radio map and a localization phase which uses a genetic algorithm to obtain the most likely position of the intruder node within the map using the genetic algorithm which is not time consuming...
The field of digital systems has undergone a major revolution in recent decades. Circuits are shrinking in physical size while growing both in speed and range of capabilities. This rapid advancement is not without serious problems, however. Especially worrisome are verification and testing, which become more important as the system complexity increases and time-to-market decreases. Genetic algorithms...
Palmprint identification is a subcategory of biometrics identification, which can be efficiently used to identify the people. Palmprint-based identification is currently a potential alternative to human identification method of a well known fingerprint-based identification. For example, if the hand of the identified person is dirty, the accuracy of fingerprint-based identification is distorted, while...
The aim of this paper is to study the tuning of a PID controller using soft computing techniques. The methodology and efficiency of the proposed method are compared with that of traditional methods. Determination or tuning of the PID parameters continues to be important as these parameters have a great influence on the stability and performance of the control system. The results obtained reflect that...
Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) modified to solve image processing problem with reference to enhancement technique is proposed in this paper. The enhancement process is an optimization problem with several constraints. The objective of the proposed PSO is to maximize an objective fitness criterion in order to improve the contrast and detail in an image by adapting the parameters of a novel extension...
Swarm Intelligence is the one of the most efficient and emergent techniques for global optimization. Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm (ABCA) is one of the new swarm intelligent population-based meta-heuristic approaches, inspired by foraging behavior of bees for function optimization. To enhance the efficiency of ABCA optimizer this paper proposes a novel hybrid approach involving genetic algorithms...
