  • To reduce the bit-rate of video sequences by removing temporal redundancy, motion estimation techniques have been developed. However, the high computational complexity of the problem makes such techniques very difficult to be applied to high-resolution applications in a real time environment. For this reason, low computational complexity motion estimation algorithms are viable solutions. If a priori knowledge about the motion of the current block is available before the motion estimation, a better starting point for the search of n optimal motion vector on be selected and also the computational complexity will be reduced. In this paper, we present an adaptive block matching algorithm based on temporal correlations of consecutive image frames that defines the search pattern and the location of initial starting point adaptively to reduce computational complexity. Experiments show that, comparing with DS(Diamond Search) algorithm, the proposed algorithm is about 0.1∼0.5(㏈) better than DS in terms of PSNR and improves as much as 50% in terms of the average number of search points per motion estimation.

  • In this paper, we propose the improved noise power estimation in speech enhancement under various noise environments. The previous MS algorithm tracking the minimum value of finite search window uses the optimal power spectrum of signal for smoothing and adopts minimum probability. From the investigation of the previous MS-based methods it can be seen that a fixed size of the minimum search window is assumed regardless of the various environment. To achieve the different search window size, we use the noise classification algorithm based on the Gaussian mixture model (GMM). Performance of the proposed enhancement algorithm is evaluated by ITU-T P.862 perceptual evaluation of speech quality (PESQ) under various noise environments. Based on this, we show that the proposed algorithm yields better result compared to the conventional MS method.

  • An optimization system, APROGA II using genetic algorithm, was developed to solve multi-modal and multiobjective problems. To begin with, Multi-Niche Crowding(MNC) algorithm was used for multi-modal optimization problem. Secondly, a new algorithm was suggested for multiobjective optimization problem. Pareto dominance tournaments and Sharing on the non-dominated frontier was applied to it to obtain multiple objectives. APROGA II uses these two algorithms and the system has three search engines(previous APROGA search engine, multi-modal search engine and multiobjective search engine). Besides, this system can handle binary and discrete variables. And the validity of APROGA II was proved by solving several test functions and case study problems successfully.

  • In this paper, we propose a music search algorithm for automotive infotainment system. The proposed method extracts fingerprints using the high peaks based on log-spectrum of the music signal, and the extracted music fingerprints store in cloud server applying a hash value. In the cloud server, the most similar music is retrieved by comparing the user's query music with the fingerprints stored in hash table of cloud server. To evaluate the performance of the proposed music search algorithm, we measure an accuracy of the retrieved results according to various length of the query music and measure a retrieval time according to the number of stored music database in hash table.

  • The redundancy allocation problem has usually considered only the component redundancy at the lowest-level for the enhancement of system reliability. A system can be functionally decomposed into system, module, and component levels. Modular redundancy can be more effective than component redundancy at the lowest-level because in modular systems, duplicating a module composed of several components can be easier, and requires less time and skill. We consider a multi-level redundancy allocation problem in which all cases of redundancy for system, module, and component levels are considered. A tabu search of memory-based mechanisms that balances intensification with diversification via the short-term and long-term memory is proposed for its solution. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to use a tabu search for this problem. Our tabu search algorithm is compared with the previous genetic algorithm for the problem on the new composed test problems as well as the benchmark problems from the literature. Computational results show that the proposed method outstandingly outperforms the genetic algorithm for almost all test problems.

This new algorithm based on Parallel Implicitly-Exhaustive search, where we applied dynamic search space reduction methods in order to reduce computational time for finding Optimal Span for R=1/2 rate CDO codes. The simulation results shows that speedup and error correction performance of the new algorithm is better.

  • This paper presents a Cuckoo search algorithm to secure adversaries misdirecting multi-hop routing in Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) using a robust Trust Predicated Routing Framework with an optimized cluster head selection. The clustering technique designed in this framework leads to efficient routing in MANETs. The heavy work load in the node causes an energy drop in cluster head, which leads to re-clustering of the group, and another cluster head is selected to avoid packet loss during data transmission. The problem in the re-clustering process is that the overall efficiency of the routing process is reduced and the processing time is increased. A Cuckoo search based optimization algorithm is proposed to solve the problem of re-clustering by selecting the secondary cluster head within the initially formed cluster group and eliminating the reclustering process. The proposed framework enables a node to select a reliable and secure route for MANET and the performance can be evaluated by comparing the simulated results with the AODV routing protocol, which shows that the performance of the proposed routing protocol are improved significantly.

  • This paper proposes a hybrid genetic algorithm(HGA) for the classifier ensemble selection. HGA is added a local search operation for increasing the fine-turning of local area. This paper apply hybrid and simple genetic algorithms(SGA) to the classifier ensemble selection problem in order to show the superiority of HGA. And this paper propose two methods(SSO: Sequential Search Operations, CSO: Combinational Search Operations) of local search operation of hybrid genetic algorithm. Experimental results show that the HGA has better searching capability than SGA. The experiments show that the CSO considering the correlation among classifiers is better than the SSO.

  • This paper presents an application of parallel hybrid Genetic Algorithm-Tabu Search (GA-TS) algorithm to search an optimal solution of a recokiguration in distribution system. In parallel hybrid CA-TS, after CA operations, stings which are not emerged in the past population are selected in the reproduction procedure. After reproduction operation, if there are many strings which are in the past population, we add new random strings into the population, if there's no improvement for the predetermined iteration, local search procedure is executed by TS for the strings with high fitness function value. To show the usefulness of the proposed method, developed algorithm has been tested and compared on a distribution system in the reference paper.
