The Probabilistic Traveling Salesman Problem (PTSP) is an important topic in the study of traveling salesman problem and stochastic routing problem. The goal of PTSP is to find a priori tour visiting all customers with a minimum expected length, which simply skips customers not requiring a visit in the tour. There are many existing researches for the homogeneous version of the problem, where all customers have an identical visiting probability. Otherwise, the researches for the heterogeneous version of the problem are insufficient and most of them have focused on search base algorithms. In this paper, we propose a simple construction algorithm to solve the heterogeneous PTSP. The Minimum Expected Length Insertion (MELI) algorithm is a construction algorithm and consists of processes to decide a sequence of visiting customers by inserting the one, with the minimum expected length between two customers already in the sequence. Compared with optimal solutions, the MELI algorithm generates better solutions when the average probability is low and the customers have different visiting probabilities. We also suggest a local search method which improves the initial solution generated by the MELI algorithm.

In the optimized design of an actual structure, the design variable should be selected among any certain values or corresponds to a discrete design variable that needs to handle the size of a pre-formatted part. Various algorithms have been developed for discrete design. As recently reported, the sequential algorithm with orthogonal arrays(SOA), which is a local minimum search algorithm in discrete space, has excellent local minimum search ability. It reduces the number of function evaluation using orthogonal arrays. However it only finds a local minimum and the final solution depends on the initial value. In this research, the genetic algorithm, which defines an initial population with the potential solution in a global space, is adopted in SOA. The new algorithm, sequential algorithm with orthogonal arrays and genetic algorithm(SOAGA), can find a global solution with the properties of genetic algorithm and the solution is found rapidly with the characteristics of SOA.

이 논문은 특징 선택을 위한 새로운 혼합형 유전 알고리즘을 제안한다. 탐색을 미세 조정하기 위한 지역 연산을 고안하였고, 이들 연산을 유전 알고리즘에 삽입하였다. 연산의 미세 조정 강도를 조절할 수 있는 매개 변수를 설정하였으며, 이 변수에 따른 효과를 측정하였다. 다양한 표준 데이타 집합에 대해 실험한 결과, 제안한 혼합형 유전 알고리즘이 단순 유전 알고리즘과 순차 탐색 알고리즘에 비해 우수함을 확인하였다.

Conventional maximum power point tracking (MPPT) methods are ineffective under partially shaded conditions because multiple local maximum can be exhibited on power-voltage characteristic curve. This study proposes an improved cuckoo search (ICS) MPPT method after investigating the cuckoo search (CS) algorithm applied in solving multiple MPPT. The algorithm eliminates the random step in the original CS algorithm, and the conception of low-power, high-power, normal and marked zones are introduced. The adaptive step adjustment is also realized according to the different stages of the nest position. This algorithm adopts the large step in low-power and marked zones to reduce search time, and a small step in high-power zone is used to improve search accuracy. Finally, simulation and experiment results indicate that the promoted ICS algorithm can immediately and accurately track the global maximum under partially shaded conditions, and the array output efficiency can be improved.

Artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm has attracted significant interests recently for solving the multivariate optimization problem. However, it still faces insufficiency of slow convergence speed and poor local search ability. Therefore, in this paper, a modified ABC algorithm with bees' number reallocation and new search equation is proposed to tackle this drawback. In particular, to enhance solution accuracy, more bees in the population are assigned to execute local searches around food sources. Moreover, elite vectors are adopted to guide the bees, with which the algorithm could converge to the potential global optimal position rapidly. A series of classical benchmark functions for frequency-modulated sound waves are adopted to validate the performance of the modified ABC algorithm. Experimental results are provided to show the significant performance improvement of our proposed algorithm over the traditional version.

본 논문에서는 인접 블록 움직임 벡터의 통계적 특성을 이용한 가변 탐색 스텝의 고속 움직임 추정 기법에 대해 제안한다. 인접 블록 움직임 벡터들 사이의 상관 관계를 이용하여 움직임 추정을 위한 탐색 영역을 적응적으로 결정하였으며, 이를 통해 불필요한 탐색 지점 수를 제거할 수 있었다. 이와 같이 결정된 탐색 영역을 기반으로 가변 탐색 스텝 움직임 추정을 적용하였으며 움직임 추정을 위한 연산량을 줄일 수 있었다. 실험 결과를 통해 제안 방식이 H.264 JM의 고속 전 대역 spiral 탐색 기법과 기타 고속 움직임 추정 방식과 비교하여 부호화 성능의 저하 없이 움직임 추정을 위한 탐색 지점 수 및 연산 량이 급격히 감소됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

Structural optimization has been carried out in continuous design space or in discrete design space. Generally, available designs are discrete in design practice. However, the methods for discrete variables are extremely expensive in computational cost. An iterative optimization algorithm is proposed for design in a discrete space, which is called a sequential algorithm using orthogonal arrays (SOA). We demonstrate verifying the fact that a local optimum solution can be obtained from the process with this algorithm. The local optimum solution is defined in a discrete design space. Then the search space, which is a set of candidate values of each design variables formed by the neighborhood of a current design point, is defined. It is verified that a local optimum solution can be found by sequentially moving the search space. The SOA algorithm has been applied to problems such as truss type structures. Then it is confirmed that a local solution can be obtained by using the SOA algorithm

But methods for discrete variables are extremely expensive in computational cost. In order to overcome this weakness, an iterative optimization algorithm was proposed for design in the discrete space, which is called as a sequential algorithm using orthogonal arrays (SOA). We focus to verify the fact that the local solution can be obtained throughout the optimization with this algorithm. The local solution is defined in discrete design space.

We introduce a non-Euclidean metric for transportation systems with a defined minimum transportation cost (initial fare) and investigate the continuous single-facility Weber location problem based on this metric. The proposed algorithm uses the results for solving the Weber problem with Euclidean metric by Weiszfeld procedure as the initial point for a special local search procedure. The results of local search are then checked for optimality by calculating directional derivative of modified objective functions in finite number of directions. If the local search result is not optimal then algorithm solves constrained Weber problems with Euclidean metric to obtain the final result. An illustrative example is presented.

이 논문은 최적의 분류기 앙상블 선택을 위한 혼합 유전 알고리즘을 제안한다. 혼합 유전 알고리즘은 단순 유전알고리즘의 미세 조정력을 보완하기 위해 지역 탐색 연산을 추가한 것이다. 혼합 유전 알고리즘의 우수성을 입증하기 위해 단순 유전 알고리즘과 혼합 유전 알고리즘 각각을 비교 실험하였다. 또한 혼합 유전 알고리즘의 지역 탐색 연산으로 두 가지 방법(SSO: 순차 탐색 연산, CSO: 조합 탐색 연산)을 제안한다. 비교 실험 결과는 혼합 유전 알고리즘이 단순 유전 알고리즘에 비해 해를 탐색하는 능력이 우수하였다. 또한 분류기들의 상관관계를 고려한 CSO 방법이 SSO 방법보다 더 우수하였다.
