The phenomenon of particle bursts, a well-known feature of PSO is investigated. Their origin is concluded to lie in multiplicative stochasticity, previously encountered in the stu...
Optimizing the BIST configuration based on the characteristics of the design under test is a complicated and challenging work for test engineers. Since this problem has multiple o...
The success of evolutionary algorithms (EAs) depends crucially on finding suitable parameter settings. Doing this by hand is a very time consuming job without the guarantee to ...
The issue of coalition formation has been investigated from many aspects, but until recently little attention has been paid to overlapping coalition formation. What’s more, an a...
—A novel Fast Bacterial Swarming Algorithm (FBSA) for high-dimensional function optimization is presented in this paper. The proposed algorithm combines the foraging mechanism of...
