In this paper, a new method is introduced for detecting small targets in infrared images. The proposed method is based on the particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO). Considering the nature of the small target detection problem, a dynamic optimizationalgorithm is developed to detect targets. The proposed algorithm is called the dynamic particleswarm detector (DPSD). Unlike common small target detection algorithms, the computational complexity of the proposed algorithm is not linear to number of pixels in the input image. Therefore, it is capable of operating on a large-scale image in a relatively small timeslot. Many experiments are carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, where the DPSD is compared to seven well-known methods in terms of quantitative detection metrics. The results show that the proposed detector outperforms the baseline algorithms.

This work is undertaken with an objective to develop and implement a trained particleswarmoptimization (PSO) algorithm for prediction of an optimized set of design and operating parameters for a smooth flat plate solar air heater (SFPSAH). The simulation is carried out based on the basis of the algorithm developed for three different cases using the climatic condition data of the city Hamirpur, India situated between (latitude) 31 degrees 25'-31 degrees 52'N and (longitude) 76 degrees 18' to 76 degrees 44' E. The final results obtained from this algorithm are compared with experimental results and found to be satisfactory as far as flexibility, speed and global convergence are concerned.

The arch is the main stress structure of metro station in the construction of arch cover method. The preliminary geological survey has some limitations, and the arch structure design based on the survey results is usually too conservative, which increases the investment cost. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the design parameters of arch structure. In this paper, based on particleswarmoptimization (PSO) algorithm, the engineering cost is taken as the optimization objective, and the monitoring control values of displacement are taken as the constraint condition. The scheme optimization is carried out for the thickness of outer primary lining and inner primary lining and removal length of temporary support. The final optimization values of parameters obtained by PSO algorithm are that the removal length of temporary support is 18 m, the thickness of the outer primary lining is 22 cm, and the thickness of the inner primary lining is 26 cm. Compared with the original design scheme, the engineering cost of the optimized scheme is reduced by 8.79%. The optimized parameters can not only meet the safety requirements of the project, but also effectively reduce the project cost, which has guiding significance to the actual project construction.

Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) and particleswarmoptimization (PSO) algorithm are two popular swarm intelligence optimizationalgorithms and these two algorithms have their own search mechanisms. Based on their unique search mechanisms and their advantages after the improvements on them, this paper proposes a novel hybrid algorithm based on PSO and GWO (Hybrid GWO with PSO, HGWOP). Firstly, GWO is simplified and a novel differential perturbation strategy is embedded in the search process of the simplified GWO to form a Simplified GWO with Differential Perturbation (SDPGWO) so that it can improve the global search ability while retaining the strong exploitation ability of GWO. Secondly, a stochastic mean example learning strategy is applied to PSO to create a Mean Example Learning PSO (MELPSO) to enhance the global search ability of PSO and prevent the algorithm from falling into local optima. Finally, a poor-for-change strategy is proposed to organically integrate SDPGWO and MELPSO to obtain an efficient hybrid algorithm of GWO and PSO. HGWOP can give full play to the advantages of these two improved algorithms, overcome the shortcomings of GWO and PSO and maximize the whole performance. A large number of experiments on the complex functions from CEC2013 and CEC2015 test sets reveal that HGWOP has better optimization performance and stronger universality compared with quite a few state-of-the-art algorithms. Experimental results on K-means clustering optimization show that HGWOP has obvious advantages over the comparison algorithms. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Seismic signal denoising is the main task of seismic data processing. This study proposes a novel method for the denoising seismic record on the basis of a two-dimensional variational mode decomposition (2D-VMD) algorithm and permutation entropy (PE). 2D-VMD is a recently introduced adaptive signal decomposition method in which K and a are important decomposing parameters to determine the number of modes, and have a predictable effect on the nature of detected modes. We present a novel method to address the problems of selecting appropriate K and a values and apply these values to the proposed method. First, for a 2D seismic signal, the 2D-VMD method can decompose it into K modes with specific direction and vibration characteristics. Next, the PE value of each mode is calculated. Random noise components are eliminated according to the PE value. Finally, the signal components are reconstructed to acquire the denoised seismic signal. Experimental and simulation results indicate that the proposed method has remarkable denoising effect on synthetic and real seismic signals. We hope that this new method can inspire and help evaluate new ideas in this field.

In the era of the Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain is a promising technology for improving the efficiency of healthcare systems, as it enables secure storage, management, and sharing of real-time health data collected by the IoT devices. As the implementations of blockchain-based healthcare systems usually involve multiple conflicting metrics, it is essential to balance them according to the requirements of specific scenarios. In this paper, we formulate a joint optimization model with three metrics, namely latency, security, and computational cost, that are particularly important for IoT-enabled healthcare. However, it is computationally intractable to identify the exact optimal solution of this problem for practical sized systems. Thus, we propose an algorithm called the Adaptive Discrete particleswarmalgorithm (ADPSA) to obtain near-optimal solutions in a low-complexity manner. With its roots in the classical particleswarmoptimization (PSO) algorithm, our proposed ADPSA can effectively manage the numerous binary and integer variables in the formulation. We demonstrate by extensive numerical experiments that the ADPSA consistently outperforms existing benchmark approaches, including the original PSO, exhaustive search and Simulated Annealing, in a wide range of scenarios.

The direct displacement-based design (DDBD) procedure is well established for designing reinforced concrete and steel moment-resisting frames (SMRFs). However, a limited number of researches is available on optimum DDBD of SMRFs. Furthermore, the nonlinear time-history analysis response of structures designed based on this procedure is inconsistent with its initial assumptions. Design displacement profile is one of the most essential and influential parameters in the DDBD method because it can impress other design parameters. In this paper, an optimum displacement profile is proposed to improve the results of the DDBD procedure via using the particleswarmoptimization (PSO) algorithm. In this regard, nine SMRFs with a different number of stories have been designed using the DDBD procedure. Nonlinear time history analyses are performed for these frames using OpenSees software. The models are subjected to a set of 20 ground motion records. Then, PSO algorithm has been used to optimize the displacement profile of the DDBD procedure to achieve uniform drift distribution along with the height of the frames. Finally, based on regression analysis, the optimum design displacement profile for SMRFs with a different number of stories is formulated. The proposed equations show an average reduction of about 20% and 40% in steel usage and design base shear of the frames, respectively, while they have uniform drift along their heights.

In this paper, a variant of particleswarmoptimization (PSO) algorithm using modified time varying acceleration coefficients (PSO-TVAC) has been proposed and applied in creation of new test cases for modified code in regression testing. The performance of the proposed algorithm is compared with other existing PSO algorithms on five well known benchmark test functions. The experiments prove that the proposed algorithm has better performance. The test cases generated by the proposed PSO-TVAC algorithm have greater code coverage capability over the initial test cases.
