Concerning the drawbacks that particle swarm optimisation algorithm is easy to fall into the local optima, and has low solution precision, the simplified particlealgorithm which based on the nonlinear decrease extreme disturbance and Cauchy mutation is proposed. The algorithm simplifies particle updating formula, and uses logistic chaotic sequence to initialise the particle position, which can improve the global search ability of population;nonlinear decrease extreme disturbance strategy enhanced the diversity of the population and avoid the particles trapping in local optimum;a novel Cauchy mutation is used for the optimal particle variation to generate more optimal guiding particle movement. The experimental simulation on seven typical test functions shows that the proposed algorithm can effectively avoid falling into local optimal solution, the search speed and optimisation accuracy have improved significantly. The algorithm is suitable to solve the function optimisation problem.

In mines planning, the long-term production scheduling problem (LTPSP) in open-pit mines is considered as a significant issue. It also specifies the distribution of cash flow during the course of the mine-life. Actually, LTPSP is a large-scale optimisation problem including large data-sets, multiple constraints, and uncertainty in the input factors that, has to be solved in a reasonable time. LTPSP, despite the valuable efforts of researchers, has not yet been well resolved. In this paper, hybrid models have been offered by the Lagrangian relaxation (LR) method with meta-heuristic methods, bat algorithm and particleswarmoptimisation for solving the LTPSP due to the deterministic assumption and concerning the grade uncertainty. To bring update the Lagrange multipliers, the meta-heuristic algorithms have been applied. In terms of cumulative net present value, average ore grade, and computational time in a 12-year production period, the consequences achieved from the case studies point out that a solution close to optimisation can be presented by the LR-bat algorithm hybrid strategy in comparison with other methods. The results analysis has shown that the proposed method produces a near-optimal solution with a rational time that can be a good suggestion for utilising in the mining industry.

Decisions made for designing and operating a warehouse system are of great significance. These operational decisions are strongly affected by total logistics costs, including investment and direct operating costs. The number of orders made by customers in the logistics section of warehouse management is very high because the number, type of products and items ordered by different customers vary broadly. However, machines layout for picking up products at logistics centres is minimal, inflexible, and, in some cases, inconclusive. In this study, we address joint order batching procedures of orders considering picker routing problem as a mixed-integer programming model. Extensive numerical experiments were generated in small, medium, and large sizes. In order to consider the uncertainty of parameters, we applied robust possibilistic programming for this problem. Three different meta-heuristic algorithms;genetic algorithm, particle swarm optimisation algorithm, and honey artificial bee colony algorithms are used as solution approaches to solve the formulated model. The performance of solution approaches over the problem was analysed using several test indexes. In all three group examples, there was no significant difference among mean values of the objective function, while there was a remarkable difference among computing times.

Using particle swarm optimisation algorithm to optimise support vector machines enhances urban heat island observation methods, while remote sensing technology aids in selecting temperature estimation parameters. Then the two are combined to construct a model for estimating urban near-surface temperature. A contribution study is conducted on the selected parameters. The selected parameters have contributions in the near-surface temperature estimation. The determination coefficient of the constructed urban near-surface temperature estimation model was 0.892. The root mean square error was 0.42 degrees C, the F1 value is 0.82, and the running time is 0.41 seconds, which was superior to other comparison models. Additionally, this model was applied to observe the urban heat island in Xi'an. The overall spatial distribution was low in the south and high in the north, with the central area being higher than the surrounding area, the highest temperature is 23.51 degrees C, and the lowest temperature is 19.05 degrees C. Moreover, the intensity level in the high-temperature area accounted for 16.9%. Based on the above results, the near-surface temperature estimation model constructed in the study has shown high accuracy and efficiency in urban heat island observation. It can be applied in practice, providing theoretical reference for urban planning and ecological environment protection.

This study utilizes a combination of machine learning and a global search algorithm to enhance the quality of feature extraction in sports images. A deep residual generative adversarial network is employed to deblur images and sharpen their clarity, while the optimized particleswarm optimization algorithm is utilized to extract image features with precision and identify critical information. According to the experimental results, the research method improves the peak signal-to-noise ratios in ball sports image deblurring by 12.45%, 13.91%, and 17.18%, respectively, and in track and field sports image deblurring by 11.71%, 12.91%, and 21.61%, respectively, when compared with the generative adversarial network, generative adversarial network incorporating the attention mechanism, and multi-scale convolution-based algorithm. The accuracy-recall curve of the particleswarmalgorithm that has been optimised for research completely encircles the accuracy-recall curves of the other four algorithms, which verifies the efficacy of the research methodology. The research will offer a more comprehensive perspective on sports image processing.

The coupled tank system (comprising two tanks) is used in the chemical industries, water treatment plants etc. Level control of the coupled tank system is a common problem in the process control industry. This work proposes a fractional order internal model controller (FOIMC) with a higher order fractional filter for the level control of the coupled tank system. A first order plus delay time (FOPDT) model of the system is used in the controller design. FOIMC has advantages like robustness to changes in the system gain and extended stability margins. The proposed higher order fractional filter makes the controller physically realizable and quickly roll off the magnitude Bode plot, neglecting the high frequency noise. The particleswarmoptimisation (PSO) algorithm is a swarm intelligence based algorithm used for the optimisation problems. The parameters of the FOIMC are optimized with the PSO algorithm by minimizing an objective function constructed using time domain specifications. The novel objective function includes weighted peak overshoot, settling time, and integral square error. A MATLAB (MathWorks, Inc., Natick, MA, USA) based tool, fractional order modelling and control (FOMCON) is used to simulate the fractional order controller. Performance of the proposed FOIMC is compared with two state of the art. Robustness to change in the operating point (tank height) is verified. The proposed FOIMC and the state of the art controllers are implemented on the laboratory setup, and the experimental results are compared.

With the continuous advancement of the trend of economic globalisation and the in-depth development of personalised services, the manufacturing mode has begun to change to service-oriented manufacturing, and the focus of enterprises has gradually shifted from the industrial chain to the supply chain. However, at present, accidents often occur in the supply chain around products, such as changes in orders, lack of resources in a short period of time, etc. These interference events are difficult to control and cause great damage to the normal operation and economic interests of enterprises for a long time. Therefore, it is necessary to study the optimisation methods of enterprise supply chain. Therefore, it is necessary to study the optimisation methods of enterprise supply chain. The study uses system dynamics to analyses employee counterproductive behaviour, develops a disturbance management model incorporating employee behavioural factors, and solves it with an improved particleswarmoptimisation (PSO) algorithm. The experimental results show that the maximum number of noninferior solutions obtained by the improved PSO algorithm is 14 and 12, respectively. Compared with the GA_TOM (Genetic algorithm_TOM), the improved algorithm is closer to the ideal pareto front. In the MS index, the average and minimum values obtained by the improved PSO algorithm are 0.57 and 0.609, respectively, which can cover more ideal pareto fronts. It shows that the algorithm effectively improves the stability and security of the supply chain, and provides a practical reference for the supply chain optimisation of manufacturing enterprises.

A micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) trenched piezoelectric energy harvester based on a cantilever structure has been proposed. The trenched piezoelectric layer has increased the output voltage and the generated power. It also provides three additional design parameters such as the trench position, depth and length. A particleswarm approach has been used for optimisation of the piezoelectric energy harvester geometry with the aim of finding the optimum design which transfers the maximum harvested power to a definite load. The optimisations and comparisons have been made for unimorph, bimorph, trenched and non-trenched cantilever beams. The results are quite revealing that the generated power for a trenched bimorph energy harvester is much larger than other structures. The optimum design found by particle swarm optimisation algorithm has asymmetric trenches in the top and bottom piezoelectric layers and can generate much more power than the unoptimised structure.

Millimetre wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems have been proposed to enable Gbps communication for next-generation cellular systems and local area networks. To compensate for the severe propagation loss of the mmWave channel, a cost-effective hybrid precoding architecture, combining a digital precoder and an analogue precoder, is widely used in mmWave MIMO systems. In this study, two hybrid precoding algorithms based on particleswarmoptimisation (PSO) algorithm will be proposed for two different hybrid precoding structures, i.e. the fully connected and partially connected structures. First, the authors use the phase of the analogue precoding variable to replace the corresponding variable with the constraints of the unit norm to solve the non-convex constraints skillfully. Then they design analogue precoding by using PSO algorithm and compute the digital precoding based on the least squares solution. Finally, the proposed algorithms are compared with the existing advanced algorithms. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithms can approach the optimal performance under the corresponding structure.

In this study, a novel methodology of photovoltaic (PV) modelling is proposed to represent the instantaneous electrical characteristics of PV modules covered with snow. The attenuation of the transmitted solar radiation penetrating a layer of snow is rigorously estimated based on the Giddings and LaChapelle theory. This theory introduced the level of radiation that reaches the surface of the PV module through the snowpack, significantly affected by the snow properties and thickness. The proposed modelling approach is based on the single-diode-five-parameter equivalent circuit model. The parameters of the model are updated through instantaneous measurements of voltage and current that are optimised by the particle swarm optimisation algorithm. The proposed approach for modelling snow-covered PV modules was successfully validated in outdoor tests using three different types of PV module technologies typically used in North America's PV farms under different cold weather conditions. In addition, the validity of the proposed model was investigated using real data obtained from the SCADA system of a 12-MW grid-connected PV farm. The proposed model can help to improve PV performance under snow conditions and can be considered a powerful tool for the design and selection of PV modules subjected to snow accretion.
