Since two of the most important disadvantages of the classical nonlinear regression methods, such as Levenberg-Marquardt (LM), are to calculate error derivative function and use an initial point to get the results, PSO algorithm, which lies in the category of population based meta-heuristic...

This article presents a novel improved teaching learning based optimization (I-TLBO) technique to solve economic load dispatch (ELD) problem of the thermal plant without considering transmission losses. The proposed methodology can take care of ELD problems considering practical nonlinearities...

Due to rapid digital explosion user shows interest towards finding suggestions regarding a particular topic before taking any decision. Nowadays, a movie recommendation system is an upcoming area which suggests movies based on user profile. Many researchers working on supervised or...

Nowadays, optimization of process parameters in manufacturing process deals with a number of objectives. However, the optimization of such process becomes more complex if selected attributes are conflicting in nature. Therefore, to overcome this problem in this study a SDM based PSO algorithm is...
