This paper proposes a multi-child differential evolutionary agorithm(MCDE), and forms a concurrent-hybrid evolutionary algorithm by integrating the MCDE algorithm and Guotao algorithm based on variable searching subspace(VSSGT) into the culture algorithm framework. Numerical experiment results indicate that the performance of the proposed algorithm is better than that of MCDE, Differential Evolution algorithm(DE) and VSSGT, and better than that of the DE with double trial vectors based on Boltzmann mechanisin.

In recent years the power scenario has gone through a major overhaul with the deregulation of electricity market and introduction of renewable sources into the system. Automatic generation control (AGC) is one of the important ancillary services present in the power system. This work represents an automatic generation control scheme for an interconnected three area hybrid power system in deregulated environment. Proposed scheme utilizes a classical Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller whose gain parameters K_p, K_i, K_d are tuned by Integral Square Error (ISE) control strategy using Genetic algorithm (GA), cultural algorithm (CA) and Differential Evolution (DE). A comparative study of dynamic response for frequency and tie-line confirms the superiority of cultural algorithm. In this work MATLAB/SIMULINK is used as a simulation tool.

This study proposes a knowledge-based cultural differential evolution (KCDE) method for neural fuzzy inference systems (NFIS). cultural algorithms acquire the belief space from the evolving population space and then exploit that information to guide the search. The proposed KCDE method adopts the mutation strategies of differential evolution as knowledge sources to influence the population space. The proposed KCDE method uses these knowledge sources, including normative knowledge, situational knowledge, domain knowledge, history knowledge, and topographic knowledge, to optimize the parameters of the NFIS model to avoid falling in a local optimal solution and to ensure the searching capacity of approximate global optimal solution. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed NFIS-KCDE method performs well in nonlinear system control problems. (c) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

cultural algorithms (CA) use social intelligence to solve problems in optimization. The CA is a class of evolutionary computational models inspired from observing the cultural evolutionary process in nature. cultural algorithms employ a basic set of knowledge sources, each related to knowledge observed in various animal species. Knowledge from these sources is then combined to influence the decisions of the individual agents in solving problems. Classification using "IF-THEN" rules comes under descriptive knowledge discovery in data mining and is the most sought out by users since they represent highly comprehensible form of knowledge. The rules have certain properties which make them useful forms of actionable knowledge to the users. The rules are evaluated using these properties represented as objective and subjective measures. The rule properties may be conflicting. Hence discovery of rules with specific properties is considered as a multi-objective optimization problem. In the current study an extended cultural algorithm which applies social intelligence in the data mining domain to present users with a set of rules optimized according to user specified metrics is proposed. Preliminary experimental results using benchmark data sets reveal that the algorithm is promising in producing rules with specific properties.

The flexible job shop scheduling problem (FJSP) is an extension of the classic job shop scheduling problem (JSP), which breaks through the uniqueness of limit resources, allows a procedure in many machines processing and one machine processing many kinds of different types of procedures. It is more practical and complex than JSP. The computational complexity of FjSP is much higher, which disables exact solution methods and makes heuristic approaches more qualified. A hybrid optimization algorithm, CPSO, based on the cultural algorithm and particle swarm optimization algorithm, is proposed in this paper to solve the FJSP. The objective is to minimize makespan. Computational results show that this hybrid method is able to solve efficiently these kinds of problems.

An implementation of evolutionary heuristic algorithm, which is a specific modified variant of cultural algorithm, with simplified computational procedure is presented here for solving assignment problems. A cultural algorithm consists a population component almost identical to that of the genetic algorithm and, in addition, a knowledge component called the belief space. The major constraint of assignment problems that a single job can be assigned to only one resource and the resource or job that involves the largest and as well as the least cost are availed as the knowledge components to be used to build belief space.

In order to resolve complex continuous optimisation problem, a cultural quantum-inspired shuffled frog leaping (CQSFL) algorithm is proposed. The proposed CQSFL applies the quantum knowledge strategy and new quantum leaping equations to shuffled frog leaping algorithm, and thus has the advantages of low computational complexity and fast convergence. As a key step of CQSFL algorithm, leaping movement is modelled as guided cultural behaviour and thus may improve the capability of SFLA to find the optimal solution. Then we applied the proposed CQSFL algorithm in direction finding problem of non-circular signals, which is a hot spot in domain of communication. Then, based on CQSFL algorithm and non-circular maximum likelihood (NML) algorithm, a new direction finding method is proposed, which is called CQSFL-NML algorithm. Monte-Carlo simulations have proved that the CQSFL-NML method has good performance for non-coherent and coherent non-circular signals.

In previous work, we investigated the performance of cultural algorithms (CA) over the complete range of system complexities in a benchmarked environment. In this paper the goal is to discover whether there is a similar internal process going on in CA problem solving, regardless of the complexity of the problem. We are to monitor the "vital signs" of a cultural system during the problem solving process to determine whether it was on track or not and infer the complexity class of a social system based on its "vital signs". We first demonstrate how the learning curve for a cultural System is supported by the interaction of the knowledge sources. Next a circulatory system metaphor is used to describe how the exploratory knowledge sources generate new information that is distributed to the agents via the Social Fabric network. We then conclude that the Social Metrics are able to indicate the progress of the problem solving in terms of its ability to periodically lower the innovation cost for the performance of a knowledge source which allows the influenced population to expand and explore new solution possibilities as seen in the dispersion metric. Hence we present the possibility to assess the complexity of a system's environment by looking at the Social Metrics.

The paper develops research of feasibility and validity of Culture algorithm (CA) in unit commitment optimization. The mathematic model of the optimization problem is established. Realization method of CA is presented, including design of population space and culture space, design of acceptance function and influence function, and design of evolution strategies for two spaces. Solving steps of CA is realized, and Optimization calculation program based on MATLAB language is compiled. The results of example shows that CA, s perfect advantage is faster speed and better convergence performance, which is viable and efficient for unit commitment optimization.
