The Convolutional Neural Network(CNN) can be divided into two stages: feature extraction and classification. The hyperparameters such as kernel size, number of channels, and stride in the feature extraction step affect the overall performance of CNN as well as determining the structure of CNN. In this paper, we propose a method to optimize the hyperparameter in CNN feature extraction stage using Parameter-Setting-Free Harmony Search (PSF-HS) algorithm. After setting the overall structure of CNN, hyperparameter was set as a variable and the hyperparameter was optimized by applying PSF-HS algorithm. The simulation was conducted using MATLAB, and CNN learned and tested using mnist data. We update the parameters for a total of 500 times, and it is confirmed that the structure with the highest accuracy among the CNN structures obtained by the proposed method classifies the mnist data with an accuracy of 99.28%.

Ant algorithm is new meta heuristic for hard combinatorial optimization problem. It is a population based approach that uses exploitation of positive feedback as well as greedy search. It was first proposed for tackling the well known Traveling Salesman Problem. In this paper, we propose the improved $AS_{rank}$ algorithms. The original $AS_{rank}$ algorithm accomplishes a pheromone updating about only the paths which will be composed of the optimal path is higher, but, the paths which will be composed the optimal path is lower does not considered. In this paper, The proposed method evaporate the pheromone of the paths which will be composed of the optimal path is lowest(worst tour path), it is reducing the probability of the edges selection during next search cycle. Simulation results of proposed method show lower average search time and average iteration than original ACS.

In recent years, the use of broadband bandwidth and redundant links for stable transmission in networks has resulted in excessive energy consumption and reduced transmission efficiency. In this paper, we propose an optimization algorithm that reduces the number of transmission links and minimizes transmission energy by removing redundant traffic in networks where traffic redundancy is allowed. The optimization algorithm proposed in this paper uses the meta-heuristic method using Tabu search algorithm. The proposed optimization algorithm minimizes transmission energy by designing a neighborhood generation method that efficiently routes overlapping traffic. The performance evaluation of the proposed optimization algorithm was performed in terms of the number of links used to transmit all traffic generated in the network and the transmission energy consumed. From the performance evaluation results, it was confirmed that the proposed algorithm is superior to other algorithms previously proposed.

By operating servers, storage, and networking devices, Data centers consume a lot of power such as cooling facilities, air conditioning facilities, and emergency power facilities. In the United States, The power consumed by data centers accounted for 1.8% of total power consumption in 2004. The data center industry has evolved to a large scale, and the number of large hyper scale data centers is expected to grow in the future. However, as a result of examining the server share of the data center, There is a problem where the server is not used effectively such that the average occupancy rate is only about 15% to 20%. To solve this problem, we propose a Virtual Machine Reallocation research using virtual machine migration function. In this paper, we use meta-heuristic for effective virtual machine reallocation. The virtual machine reallocation problem with the goal of maximizing the idle server was designed and solved through experiments. This study aims to reducing the idle rate of data center servers and reducing power consumption simultaneously by solving problems.

This paper presents an optimal design method of a hybrid structural control system considering multi-hazard. Unlike a typical structural control system in which one system is designed for one specific type of hazard, a simultaneous optimal design method for both active and passive control systems is proposed for the mitigation of seismic and wind induced vibration responses of structures. As a numerical example, an optimal design problem is illustrated for a hybrid mass damper(HMD) and 30 viscous dampers which are installed on a 30 story building structure. In order to solve the optimization problem, a self-adaptive Harmony Search(HS) algorithm is adopted. Harmony Search algorithm is one of the meta-heuristic evolutionary methods for the global optimization, which mimics the human player's tuning process of musical instruments. A self-adaptive, dynamic parameter adjustment algorithm is also utilized for the purpose of broad search and fast convergence. The optimization results shows that the performance and effectiveness of the proposed system is superior with respect to a reference hybrid system in which the active and passive systems are independently optimized.

Network intrusion detection system based on machine learning methods is quite dependent on the selected features in terms of accuracy and efficiency. Nevertheless, choosing the optimal combination of features from generally used features to detect network intrusion requires extensive computing resources. For instance, the number of possible feature combinations from given n features is $2^n-1$. In this paper, to tackle this problem we propose a optimal feature selection algorithm. Proposed algorithm is based on the local search algorithm, one of representative meta-heuristic algorithm for solving optimization problem. In addition, the accuracy of clusters which obtained using selected feature components and k-means clustering algorithm is adopted to evaluate a feature assembly. In order to estimate the performance of our proposed algorithm, comparing with a method where all features are used on NSL-KDD data set and multi-layer perceptron.

In order to reduce transmission delay and increase reliability in networks, mainly high-performance and high-power network equipment is used to guarantee network quality. In this paper, we propose an optimization algorithm to minimize the energy consumed when transmitting traffic in networks with a bundle link composed of multiple physical cables. The proposed optimization algorithm is a meta-heuristic method, which uses tabu search algorithm. In addition, it is designed to minimize transmission energy by minimizing the cables on the paths of the source and destination nodes for each traffic. In the proposed optimization algorithm, performance evaluation was performed in terms of the number of cables used in the transmission and the link utilization for all traffic on networks, and the performance evaluation result confirmed the superior performance than the previously proposed method.

Meta-heuristic algorithms have been developed to efficiently solve difficult problems and obtain a global optimal solution. A common feature mimics phenomenon occurring in nature and reliably improves the solution through repetition. And at the same time, the probability is used to deviate from the regional optimal solution and approach the global optimal solution. This study compares the algorithm created based on the above common points with existed SA and HS to show advantages in time and accuracy of results. Existing algorithms have problems of low accuracy, high memory, long runtime, and ignorance. In a two-variable polynomial, the existing algorithms show that the memory increases and the accuracy decrease. In order to improve the accuracy, the new algorithm increases the number of initial inputs and increases the efficiency of the search by introducing a direction using vectors. And, in order to solve the optimization problem, the results of the last experiment were learned to show the learning effect in the next experiment. The new algorithm found a solution in a short time under the experimental conditions of long iteration counts using a two-variable polynomial and showed high accuracy. And, it shows that the learning effect is effective in repeated experiments.

Wireless sensor networks use the concept of connected dominating sets that can form virtual backbones for effective routing and broadcasting. In this paper, we propose an optimization algorithm that configures a connected dominating sets in order to balance the load of nodes to increase network lifetime and to perform effective routing. The proposed optimization algorithm in this paper uses the metaheuristic method of tabu search algorithm, and is designed to balance the number of dominatees in each dominator in the constituted linked dominance set. By constructing load-balanced connected dominating sets with the proposed algorithm, it is possible to extend the network lifetime by balancing the load of the dominators. The performance of the proposed tabu search algorithm was evaluated the items related to load balancing on the wireless sensor network, and it was confirmed in the performance evaluation result that the performance was superior to the previously proposed method.

In this paper, we design and implement a GPU-based parallel algorithm to effectively solve the traveling salesman problem through an ant color system. The repetition process of generating hundreds or thousands of tours simultaneously in TSP utilizes GPU's task-level parallelism, and the update process of pheromone trails data actively exploits data parallelism by 32x32 thread blocks. In particular, through simultaneous memory access of multiple threads, the coalesced accesses on continuous memory addresses and concurrent accesses on shared memory are supported. This experiment used 127 to 1002 city data provided by TSPLIB, and compared the performance of sequential and parallel algorithms by using Intel Core i9-9900K CPU and Nvidia Titan RTX system. Performance improvement by GPU parallelization shows speedup of about 10.13 to 11.37 times.
