This paper describes a method for improving the final accuracy and the convergence speed of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) by adapting its inertia factor in the velocity updati...
This paper presents a novel approach for skew correction of documents. Skew correction is modelled as an optimization problem, and for the first time, Particle Swarm Optimization...
Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is a statistical computation method that transforms a random vector in another one whose components are independent. Because the marginal distr...

Vehicle routing problem (VRP) is a well-known combinatorial optimization and nonlinear programming problem seeking to service a number of customers with a fleet of vehicles. This ...
PSO is a population-based technique for optimization, which simulates the social behavior of the fish schooling or bird flocking. Two significant weaknesses of this method are: fir...
