In order to improve the accuracy of the image segmentation in video surveillance sequences and to overcome the limits of the traditional clustering algorithms that can not accurately model the image data sets which Contains noise data, the paper presents an automatic and accurate video image segmentation algorithm, according to the spatial properties, which uses the Gaussian mixture models to segment the image. But the expectation-maximization algorithm is very sensitive to initial values, and easy to fall into local optimums, so the paper presents a differentialevolution-based parameters estimation for Gaussian mixture models. The experiment result shows that the segmentation accuracy has been improved greatly than by the traditional segmentation algorithms.

In this work, an empirical study on multiobjective optimization algorithms based on differentialevolution (DE) algorithm is performed. The study focuses on getting good initial choices for evolutionary parameters for DE algorithm to tackle the multiobjective problem of PI controller tuning. This is an important issue in the field of control engineering, because the PI-PID controller remains a reliable digital solution for industrial processes. This study will bring an insight to the capabilities of a basic DE algorithm for multiobjective optimization, which can be the basis for more complex approaches using this evolutionary technique.

The traditional Low Energy Adaptive Cluster Hierarchy (LEACH) routing protocol is a clustering-based protocol. The uneven selection of cluster heads results in premature death of cluster heads and premature blind nodes inside the clusters, thus reducing the overall lifetime of the network. With a full consideration of information on energy and distance distribution of neighboring nodes inside the clusters, this paper proposes a new routing algorithm based on differentialevolution (DE) to improve the LEACH routing protocol. To meet the requirements of monitoring applications in outdoor environments such as the meteorological, hydrological and wetland ecological environments, the proposed algorithm uses the simple and fast search features of DE to optimize the multi-objective selection of cluster heads and prevent blind nodes for improved energy efficiency and system stability. Simulation results show that the proposed new LEACH routing algorithm has better performance, effectively extends the working lifetime of the system, and improves the quality of the wireless sensor networks.

A modified differential evolution algorithm was presented. In the proposed algorithm, the difference vector, which is employed in mutating each individual by simple differential evolution algorithm, was recorded. Each mutated individual was taken as the center of a neighborhood, the corresponding difference vector as radius. The modification increased the local searching ability of differential evolution algorithm. The numerical experiments and simulations of typical multimodal function optimization showed that the modified algorithm converged faster than differential evolution algorithm, and also held the good global searching ability.

This paper presents a model-based approach for reconstructing 3D polyhedral building models from aerial images. The proposed approach exploits some geometric and photometric properties resulting from the perspective projection of planar structures. Data are provided by calibrated aerial images. The novelty of the approach lies in its featurelessness and in its use of direct optimization based on image rawbrightness. The proposed framework avoids feature extraction and matching. The 3D polyhedral model is directly estimated by optimizing an objective function that combines an image-based dissimilarity measure and a gradient score over several aerial images. The optimization process is carried out by the differential evolution algorithm. The proposed approach is intended to provide more accurate 3D reconstruction than feature-based approaches. Fast 3D model rectification and updating can take advantage of the proposed method. Several results and evaluations of performance from real and synthetic images show the feasibility and robustness of the proposed approach.

Rapid growth of wind power generation in many countries around the world in recent years has highlighted the importance of wind power prediction. However, wind power is a complex signal for modeling and forecasting. Despite the performed research works in the area, more efficient wind power forecast methods are still demanded. In this paper, a new prediction strategy is proposed for this purpose. The forecast engine of the proposed strategy is a ridgelet neural network (RNN) owning ridge functions as the activation functions of its hidden nodes. Moreover, a new differential evolution algorithm with novel crossover operator and selection mechanism is presented to train the RNN. The efficiency of the proposed prediction strategy is shown for forecasting of both wind power output of wind farms and aggregated wind generation of power systems. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.

This paper proposes a new framework for real-time estimation of the onboard stereo head's position and orientation relative to the road surface, which is required for any advanced driver-assistance application. This framework can be used with all road types: highways, urban, etc. Unlike existing works that rely on feature extraction in either the image domain or 3-D space, we propose a framework that directly estimates the unknown parameters from the stream of stereo pairs' brightness. The proposed approach consists of two stages that are invoked for every stereo frame. The first stage segments the road region in one monocular view. The second stage estimates the camera pose using a featureless registration between the segmented monocular road region and the other view in the stereo pair. This paper has two main contributions. The first contribution combines a road segmentation algorithm with a registration technique to estimate the online stereo camera pose. The second contribution solves the registration using a featureless method, which is carried out using two different optimization techniques: 1) the differential evolution algorithm and 2) the Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) algorithm. We provide experiments and evaluations of performance. The results presented show the validity of our proposed framework.

This paper studies the design problem of delay lines in Transmitted-Reference Ultra-Wideband (TR-UWB) systems based on a new evolutionary scheme named Stepping-Dichotomy/differential-evolution (SD/DE) algorithm. The group delay response, required for the pass-band as an objective of the delay line, is approximated by using a new nonlinear optimization method under a maximin criterion. The procedure is rather generic, applicable to arbitrary bandwidths, delays, and distortions. Moreover, the approach is very convenient for calculating the least-order delay line, therefore especially suitable for real applications.
