본 논문에서는 새로운 고속 움직임 추정 알고리듬을 제공한다. 이 알고리듬의 이름은 향상된 십자 다이아몬드 탐색이며, 이것은 다이아몬드 탐색을 기초로 한다. 비록 다이아몬드 알고리듬이 가장 널리 알려진 고속 탐색 알고리듬이지만 몇몇의 시퀀스에 대해서 객관적이고 주관적인 화질이 떨어지고 불필요한 후보 블록에 대한 블록 정합을 수행함을 알 수 있다. 그래서 고속 움직임 추정을 하기 위해서 우리가 제안한 향상된 십자 다이아몬드 알고리듬에서는 첫 번째 단계에서 작은 십자형 탐색을 하고 그 다음 단계에서는 다이아몬드 탐색을 사용한다. 실험결과 향상된 십자 다이아몬드 탐색은 많이 알려진 다른 고속 움직임 추정 알고리듬보다 화질을 향상시킬 뿐만 아니라 탐색 속도 또한 향상됨을 알 수 있다.

This paper presents an application of the parallel Genetic Algorithm-Tabu Search (GA- TS) algorithm, and that is to search for an optimal solution of a reconfiguration in distribution systems. The aim of the reconfiguration of distribution systems is to determine the appropriate switch position to be opened for loss minimization in radial distribution systems, which is a discrete optimization problem. This problem has many constraints and it is very difficult to solve the optimal switch position because of its numerous local minima. This paper develops a parallel GA- TS algorithm for the reconfiguration of distribution systems. In parallel GA-TS, GA operators are executed for each processor. To prevent solution of low fitness from appearing in the next generation, strings below the average fitness are saved in the tabu list. If best fitness of the GA is not changed for several generations, TS operators are executed for the upper 10$\%$ of the population to enhance the local searching capabilities. With migration operation, the best string of each node is transferred to the neighboring node after predetermined iterations are executed. For parallel computing, we developed a PC-cluster system consisting of 8 PCs. Each PC employs the 2 GHz Pentium IV CPU and is connected with others through switch based rapid Ethernet. To demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed method, the developed algorithm was tested and is compared to a distribution system in the reference paper From the simulation results, we can find that the proposed algorithm is efficient and robust for the reconfiguration of distribution system in terms of the solution quality, speedup, efficiency, and computation time.

무선 센서 네트워크에서 해양 수색 및 구조를 목적으로 노드의 소모 에너지를 최소화하기 위한 최적화 알고리즘을 제안한다. 해양 환경에서 수색 및 구조작업은 감시하는 측에서 주로 이루어지며, 구조되는 측에서는 수동적으로 기다려야 한다. 이에 반해 자가 구성 이 가능한 무선 센서 네트워크는 해양 수색 및 구조작업에서 능동적으로 구조 신호를 보낼 수 있는 시스템을 구축할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 많은 수의 노드가 배치된 네트워크에서 노드의 소모 에너지를 최소화하기 위하여 시뮬레이티드 어닐링 알고리즘을 제안한다. 네트워크에서 노드의 밀도가 높으면 일반적으로 알고리즘 계산양이 급격히 늘어난다. 따라서 제안된 알고리즘은 적정한 실행 시간 내에 최적의 결과를 찾기 위해 새로운 이웃해 생성 동작을 제안하고 알고리즘의 효율성을 높인다. 제안된 알고리즘은 노드의 소모 에너지와 알고리즘 실행시간 면에서 성능 평가를 하였으며, 성능 평가 결과에서 기존의 방식에 비해 성능이 우수하였다.

본 논문에서는 우선순위와 문턱치를 가지고 최적 후보의 조기 탐지를 이용한 움직임 추정의 고속 블록 매칭 알고리즘을 제안한다. 전 영역 탐색(full search) 알고리즘의 계산량을 줄이기 위해 많은 고속 움직임 추정 알고리즘이 발표되었지만, 여전히 움직임 추정 성능을 향상시키기 위한 많은 연구가 보고되고 있다. 제안된 알고리즘은 이전 부분 매칭 오류에서 우선순위가 높은 각 후보에 대한 블록 매칭 오류를 계산한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 대부분의 기존 고속 블록 매칭 알고리즘에 추가적으로 적용하여 속도를 높일 수 있다. 그렇게 함으로써 최소 오류 지점을 조기에 찾고 불가능한 후보에 대한 불필요한 계산을 줄임으로써 속도를 높일 수 있다. 제안된 알고리즘은 전 영역 탐색 알고리즘과 동일한 예측 화질을 가지면서 기존의 고속 무손실 탐색 알고리즘보다 적은 계산을 사용한다. 실험결과로서, 제안된 알고리즘은 예측 화질 저하 없이 PDE 및 전 영역 탐색 방법의 계산에 비해 30 ~ 70%까지 줄일 수 있으며, 다른 고속 손실 알고리즘을 사용하면 더욱 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다.

This study presents a strategy so-called Subspace Search Mechanism (SSM) for reducing the computational time for convergence of population based metaheusristic algorithms. The selected metaheuristic for this study is the Cuckoo Search algorithm (CS) dealing with size optimization of trusses. The complexity of structural optimization problems can be partially due to the presence of high-dimensional design variables. SSM approach aims to reduce dimension of the problem. Design variables are categorized to predefined groups (subspaces). SSM focuses on the multiple use of the metaheuristic at hand for each subspace. Optimizer updates the design variables for each subspace independently. Updating rules require candidate designs evaluation. Each candidate design is the assemblage of responsible set of design variables that define the subspace of interest. SSM is incorporated to the Cuckoo Search algorithm for size optimizing of three small, moderate and large space trusses. Optimization results indicate that SSM enables the CS to work with less number of population (42%), as a result reducing the time of convergence, in exchange for some accuracy (1.5%). It is shown that the loss of accuracy can be lessened with increasing the order of complexity. This suggests its applicability to other algorithms and other complex finite element-based engineering design problems.

This paper deals with optimal stacking sequence design of laminate composite structures. The stacking sequence optimisation of laminate composites is formulated as a combinatorial problem and is solved using Simulated Annealing (SA), an algorithm devised based on inspiration of physical process of annealing of solids. The combinatorial constraints are handled using a correction strategy. The SA algorithm is strengthened by embedding Tabu search in order to prevent recycling of recently visited solutions and the resulting algorithm is referred to as tabu embedded simulated Annealing (TSA) algorithm. Computational performance of the proposed TSA algorithm is enhanced through cache-fetch implementation. Numerical experiments have been conducted by considering rectangular composite panels and composite cylindrical shell with different ply numbers and orientations. Numerical studies indicate that the TSA algorithm is quite effective in providing practical designs for lay-up sequence optimisation of laminate composites. The effect of various neighbourhood search algorithms on the convergence characteristics of TSA algorithm is investigated. The sensitiveness of the proposed optimisation algorithm for various parameter settings in simulated annealing is explored through parametric studies. Later, the TSA algorithm is employed for multi-criteria optimisation of hybrid composite cylinders for simultaneously optimising cost as well as weight with constraint on buckling load. The two objectives are initially considered individually and later collectively to solve as a multi-criteria optimisation problem. Finally, the computational efficiency of the TSA based stacking sequence optimisation algorithm has been compared with the genetic algorithm and found to be superior in performance.

Obtaining accurate location information is important in practical applications of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The distance vector hop (DV-Hop) is a frequently-used range-free localization algorithm in WSNs, but it has low localization accuracy. Moreover, despite various improvements to DV-Hop-based localization algorithms, maintaining a balance between high localization accuracy and good stability and convergence is still a challenge. To overcome these shortcomings, we proposed an improved DV-Hop localization algorithm based on the bat algorithm (IBDV-Hop) for WSNs. The IBDV-Hop algorithm incorporates optimization methods that enhance the accuracy of the average hop distance and fitness function. We also introduce a nonlinear dynamic inertial weight strategy to extend the global search scope and increase the local search accuracy. Moreover, we develop an updated solutions strategy that avoids premature convergence by the IBDV-Hop algorithm. Both theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the IBDV-Hop algorithm achieves higher localization accuracy than the original DV-Hop algorithm and other improved algorithms. The IBDV-Hop algorithm also exhibits good stability, search capability and convergence, and it requires little additional time complexity and energy consumption.

본 논문에서는 제안한 알고리즘은 이전 유전 알고리즘의 분산처리를 위해 라우터 그룹 단위인 셀을 도입하였다. 셀 단위로 유전 알고리즘을 시행하여 전체 네트워크의 탐색 지연시간을 줄이는 방법을 제시하였다. 또한, 실험을 통하여 기존 최적경로 알고리즘인 Dijkstra 알고리즘에서 네트워크가 손상되었을 경우 제안한 알고리즘에는 대체 경로 설정의 연산시간이 단축되었으며 손상된 네트워크의 셀 안에서 2순위의 경로를 가지고 있으므로 Dijkstra 알고리즘보다 신속하게 대체경로를 설정하도록 설계되었다. 이는 제안한 알고리즘이 네트워크상에서 Dijkstra 알고리즘이 손상되었을 경우 대체 경로설정을 보완할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The shortest-path searching algorithm must not only find a global solution to the destination, but also solve a turn penalty problem (TPP) in an urban road transportation network (URTN). Although the Dijkstra algorithm (DA) as a representative node-based algorithm secures a global solution to the shortest path search (SPS) in the URTN by visiting all the possible paths to the destination, the DA does not solve the TPP and the slow execution speed problem (SEP) because it must search for the temporary minimum cost node. Potts and Oliver solved the TPP by modifying the visiting unit from a node to the link type of a tree-building algorithm like the DA. The Multi Tree Building Algorithm (MTBA), classified as a representative Link Based Algorithm (LBA), does not extricate the SEP because the MTBA must search many of the origin and destination links as well as the candidate links in order to find the SPS. In this paper, we propose a new Link-Based Single Tree Building Algorithm in order to reduce the SEP of the MTBA by applying the breaking rule to the LBA and also prove its usefulness by comparing the proposed with other algorithms such as the node-based DA and the link-based MTBA for the error rates and execution speeds.

To the unconstrained programme of non-convex function, this article give a modified BFGS algorithm. The idea of the algorithm is to modify the approximate Hessian matrix for obtaining the descent direction and guaranteeing the efficacious of the quasi-Newton iteration pattern. We prove the global convergence properties of the algorithm associating with the general form of line search, and prove the quadratic convergence rate of the algorithm under some conditions.
