To solve the multi-robot task allocation (MRTA) especially in unknown complex environment, a novel dynamic algorithm was put forward with the advantages of wireless sensor network (WSN). The architecture and sensor fusion of WSN were discussed. particleswarmoptimization (PSO) algorithm based on bionic swarm intelligence was used for solution of the multi-objective optimization. A practical implementation with real WSN and real mobile robots were carried out. The successful implementation of tasks validates the efficiency, stability and accuracy of the proposed algorithm.

The particle swarm optimization algorithm was showed to converge rapidly during the initial stages of a global search, but around global optimum, the search process will become very slow. On the contrary, the gradient descending method can achieve faster convergent speed around global optimum, and at the same time, the convergent accuracy can be higher. So in this paper, a hybrid algorithm combining particleswarmoptimization (PSO) algorithm with back-propagation (BP) algorithm, also referred to as PSO-BP algorithm, is proposed to train the weights of feedforward neural network (FNN), the hybrid algorithm can make use of not only strong global searching ability of the PSOA, but also strong local searching ability of the BP algorithm. In this paper, a novel selection strategy of the inertial weight is introduced to the PSO algorithm. In the proposed PSO-BP algorithm, we adopt a heuristic way to give a transition from particleswarm search to gradient descending search. In this paper, we also give three kind of encoding strategy of particles, and give the different problem area in which every encoding strategy is used. The experimental results show that the proposed hybrid PSO-BP algorithm is better than the Adaptive particle swarm optimization algorithm (APSOA) and BP algorithm in convergent speed and convergent accuracy.

The present paper describes a fundamental study on structural bending design to reduce noise using a new evolutionary population-based heuristic algorithm called the particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSOA). The particle swarm optimization algorithm is a parallel evolutionary computation technique proposed by Kennedy and Eberhart in 1995. This algorithm is based on the social behavior models for bird flocking, fish schooling and other models investigated by zoologists. Optimal structural design problems to reduce noise are highly nonlinear, so that most conventional methods are difficult to apply. The present paper investigates the applicability of PSOA to such problems. Optimal bending design of a vibrating plate using PSOA is performed in order to minimize noise radiation. PSOA can be effectively applied to such nonlinear acoustic radiation optimization.

A reconfigurable manufacturing system (RMS) is designed for rapid adjustment of functionalities in response to market changes. A RMS consists of a number of reconfigurable machine tools (RMTs) for processing different jobs using different processing modules. The potential benefits of a RMS may not be materialized if not properly designed. This paper focuses on RMT design optimization considering three important yet conflicting factors: configurability, cost and process accuracy. The problem is formulated as a multi-objective model. A mechanism is developed to generate and evaluate alternative designs. A modified fuzzy-Chebyshev programming (MFCP) method is proposed to achieve a preferred compromise of the design objectives. Unlike the original fuzzy-Chebyshev programming (FCP) method which imposes an identical satisfaction level for all objectives regardless of their relative importance, the MFCP respects their priority order. This method also features an adaptive satisfaction-level-dependent process to dynamically adjust objective weights in the search process. A particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSOA) is developed to provide quick solutions. The application of the proposed approach is demonstrated using a reconfigurable boring machine. Our computational results have shown that the combined MFCP and PSOA algorithm is efficient and robust. The advantages of the MFCP over the original FCP are also illustrated based on the results.

Due to the existence of singular configurations within the workspace for a platform-type parallel manipulator (PPM), the actuating force demands increase drastically as the PPM approaches or crosses singular points. Therefore, in this report, a numerical technique is presented to plan a singularity-free trajectory of the PPM for minimum actuating effort and reactions. By using the parametric trajectory representation, the singularity-free trajectory planning problem can be cast to the determination of undetermined control points, after which a particle swarm optimization algorithm is employed to find the optimal control points. This algorithm ensures that the obtained trajectories can avoid singular points within the workspace and that the PPM has the minimum actuating effort and reactions. Simulations and discussions are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the algorithm.

Mechanical property prediction of hot rolled strip is one of the hotspots in material processing research. To avoid the local infinitesimal defect and slow constringency in pure BP algorithm, a kind of global optimizationalgorithm-particleswarmoptimization (PSO) is adopted. The algorithm is combined with the BP rapid training algorithm, and then, a kind of new neural network (NN) called PSO-BP NN is established. With the advantages of global optimization ability and the rapid constringency of the BP rapid training algorithm, the new algorithm fully shows the ability of nonlinear approach of multilayer feedforward network, improves the performance of NN, and provides a favorable basis for further online application of a comprehensive model.

Most supply chain programming problems are restricted to the deterministic situations or stochastic environmcnts. Considering twofold uncertainty combining grey and fuzzy factors, this paper proposes a hybrid uncertain programming model to optimize the supply chain production-distribution cost. The programming parameters of the material suppliers, manufacturer, distribution centers, and the customers are integrated into the presented model. On the basis of the chance measure and the credibility of grey fuzzy variable, the grey fuzzy simulation methodology was proposed to generate input-output data for the uncertain functions. The designed neural network can expedite the simulation process after trained from the generated input-output data. The improved particleswarmoptimization (PSO) algorithm based on the Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm can optimize the uncertain programming problems. A numerical example was presented to highlight the significance of the uncertain model and the feasibility of the solution strategy.

A robust control strategy is proposed to control UPFC in different operating conditions. PI regulators used for UPFC suffer from the inadequacies of providing suitable control for transient stability enhancement over a wide range of system operating conditions. In this paper an optimization method based on particle-swarmoptimization (PSO) algorithm is presented to optimize the parameters of the PI controller of UPFC in order to enhance the power system transient stability. This scheme dispenses the gain dependency of the proportional or integral gains and generates independent control actions. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated using simulations of a multi-machine power system.
