Without a suitable solution, it can ultimately result in the structure’s destruction. Therefore, a detailed study is required to understand this phenomenon and the factors affecting it. This research entails utilizing extensive field data to measure the local scour depth around bridge piers. It proposes an equation comprising scour-affecting parameters and defines an optimization model to establish this relationship. The decision variables of this model were determined using a meta-heuristic algorithm called the hybrid gray wolf-particle swarm (HPSGWO). For this purpose, various relationships were established to ascertain scour depth, and subsequently, the local scour depth of the bridge piers was calculated, based on these equations. Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Relative Square Root (RSR), Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE), Percent Bias (PBIAS), and Correlation Coefficient (CC) were employed as error measurement indices to evaluate the relationships. Upon comparison of the error measurement indices for the obtained relationships, the best input parameter combination and mathematical relationship for calculating scour depth were determined. These indices for the superior model are equal to 0.504 m, 0.52, 0.73, 7.7%, and 0.734 for RMSE, RSR, NSE, PBIAS, and CC, respectively. These values show that the equation presented in this research is suitable for calculating scour depth and is more reliable than the presented experimental methods. In the proposed relationship, scour depth is directly proportional to the Froude number and the ratio of base width to water depth while inversely proportional to the average size of bed particles to water depth.

Classic attribute selection methods cannot work well on big data. Because feature selection is a complex problem, it seems appropriate to use meta-heuristic algorithms to solve this problem. In this paper, a new meta-heuristic algorithm inspired by nomadic migration to solve the feature selection problem is presented. This algorithm is named in honor of the Qashqai tribe. In this hybrid algorithm, the proportional function was designed based on the feature selection algorithm and based on minimizing the number of features and the amount of data error using neural network results. Then the Qashqai meta-heuristic algorithm was implemented on this fitness function and the results were compared with the well-known meta-heuristic algorithms of genetics and particle swarm. The results of the hypothesis test showed that the Qashqai optimization algorithm to solve the feature selection problem by the genetic algorithm and particle swarm is not defeated and in terms of convergence to the optimal solution works well.

In other words, if the saving of individuals will be directed by appropriate mechanism to the manufacturing sector it brings efficiency not only to the owners of capital but also it can be considered as the most important funding for launching economic projects of society.In present study, three stock selection and optimization algorithms including genetic algorithm, particle swarm algorithm, and cultural algorithm has been studied. So, 106 listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange, since 2007 to 2014 were tested in order to investigate this.In this study, for plotting the efficient frontier and comprising of the optimal portfolio half of the variance is considered as the main factor of risk. This research investigates the significant difference between the averages of investment output in selected baskets based on three methods. The statistical analysis of the results shows that there is no difference between the three algorithms. However, in order to compare the two algorithms and analysis of superiority of algorithms, these two methods of optimization have been compared from two aspects of objective function, output ratio and risk.Since the objective function of particle swarm algorithms was less, in other word, it has the least error and gain the best result so in comparing to other algorithms it has been performed better which shows the relative superiority of this algorithms in the selection of the optimal portfolio.

In this study, based on the data related to 96 financial ratios of 140 companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange during a period of 9 years between 2010 and 3012, we have predicted a negative shock of stock price based on the meta-heuristic approach. In this research, in order to extract the optimal financial ratios, genetic algorithms and particle swarm optimization have been used. The proposed model is then tested using these extracted features by a support vector machine with a radial core and an artificial neural network. The results showed that the variables extracted from the particle swarm optimization algorithm, together with the support vector machine learning algorithm, create better results for predicting shocks (temporary and permanent) and their number.

Accordingly, the main objective of this study was to predict the per capita health expenditures trend in Iran. Methods: In this paper, we specified a health expenditure model relying on theoretical basics in order to obtain desirable forecasts. On the basis of three forms of linear, exponential and quadratic equations and using theoretical foundations in the field of per capita health expenditure function, we used genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to simulate Iranians per capita health expenditure during 1979-2015. Then we selected the superior model in terms of prediction power criteria and forecast per capita health expenditure until 2041. Also, the statistical analyzes were performed using the MATLAB software version R2016b. Results: The predicted results indicate that per capita health expenditures in Iran will increase with a positive slope by 2041. The amount of this expenditure will be from $ 1081 (based on 2011 constant prices) in 2015 to $ 2628 in 2041 (about 2.5 times). Conclusion: With regard to the projected amount of per capita health expenditures up to 2041 horizon, policy makers in the health sector should take the necessary measures to finance the expenditures of this sector.

Based on the results, the cost of the optimal design has been reduced by about 10% compared to the existing design. The results showed that water level drop and groundwater quality had the highest weight coefficient.Also, the areas that had the most drop, the best water quality, the shortest distance and the lowest height to the place of consumption, had the highest weight coefficient and the areas that had the lowest drop, The average annual drop in water level in this area varies from 1.13 to 0.3 meters. There are 422 deep wells in this area, about 60 of which have a discharge of more than 20 liters per second and are a good option for replacing the city's drinking water supply wells.

This study aims to propose a hybrid method involving logistic regression with particle swarm optimization algorithm with real value to predict the behavior of dam equipment.Method: In this study, from 365 days data, from 04/20/2018 to 04/20/2019, of which 600 sets of dam equipment data including parameters of water temperature, water level, valve pressure, sedimentation rate, pore pressure, air temperature, inlet water volume, specific dam characteristics, concrete conditions, reservoir water level, horizontal and vertical displacement, transmission connection components and ground acceleration, strength, pressure, tensile and high stress were used for modeling. Real value-logistic regression and 120 datasets were used for modeling the should be added of particle group optimization algorithm. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, four statistics including coefficient of determination (R2), root mean square error (RMSE), scattering coefficient (SI), and means bias error (MBE) were used.Findings: The results showed that the model has an acceptable performance in predicting piezometric pressure in the dam body. Also, the results of the artificial neural network model show acceptable convergence with R2 = 0.930 and SSI = 8.587. The results related to the training data of the model also indicate that the mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ) of the proposed model are equal to 1.341 and 1.526 for the training data and these values for the validation data are equal to 1.576 and 2.247, respectively indicating the good performance of the proposed model. In the cumulative probability criterion, the proposed model with P50 = 0.940 and P90 = 1.742 indicates that the results are acceptable.Results: The results indicate that the real value-logistic regression particle swarm optimization implements the principle of structural risk reduction instead of minimizing the experimental risk that provides excellent generalization for small sample sizes. The ratio of predicted piezometric values to read values for about 72% of the data in this model is about one, indicating the appropriate training and predictive power of this model. Finally, according to the evaluation criteria, the hybrid model performs better than the presented methods. Manuscript profile -

In this regard, many models have been developed which proposed better managements in order to maintain water quality. Most of these models require input parameters which are hardly available or their measurements are time consuming and expensive. Among them, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models inspired by human's brain are a better choice.Method: The present study stimulated the groundwater quality parameters of Dezful plain including Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR), Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), using ANN+PSO and ANN+P-PSO models and in the end is comparing their results with measured data. The input data for TDS quality parameter consist of EC, SAR, pH, SO4, Ca, Mg and Na, for SAR including the TDS, pH, Na, Hco3 and quality parameter of EC contains So4, Ca, Mg, SAR and pH, gathered from 2011 to 2015.Findings: The results indicated that the highest prediction accuracy of quality parameters of SAR, EC and TDS is related to the ANN+P-PSO model so that the MAE and RMSE statistics have the minimum and has the maximum value for the model. The results showed that RMSE for PSO in predicting SAR, EC and TDS were 0.09, 0.045 (µs/cm) and 0.053 (mg/l) in testing period, respectively. These statistical criteria were 0.039, 0.031 (µs/cm) and 0.045 (mg/l) for P-PSO in this period, respectively.Discussion and Conclusion: The results showed that P-PSO had more accuracy compared to PSO. In addition, there were no significant differences between ANN and collecting values. So, it is recommended that ANN were applied to determine nitrate concentration in groundwater.

Most research on earnings management has examined the linear relationship between independent variables and earnings management using statistical methods but they did not use these variables to predict earnings management. Today, with the growth of information technology and the introduction of artificial intelligence, including artificial neural networks into the field of scientific research, it has become possible to study nonlinear relationships between variables. In this study, an attempt was made to estimate optional accruals for predicting earnings management using artificial neural networks. Also in this research, the genetic algorithm optimizer model and Particle swarm has been used to optimize the weights of the artificial neural network model to enhance the predictive power. Then, the ability to predict profit management was evaluated using the modified Jones statistical model, artificial neural network and the combined technique of genetic algorithm, Particle swarm and neural network. The sample used in this study included 150 companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange between 2015 and 2020. Findings showed that the artificial neural network has a high ability to predict profit management, compared to the modified Jones linear model. The findings also indicate that the accuracy and ability of the combined model of genetic algorithm, particle swarm and neural network in predicting profit management is higher than the combined model of genetic algorithm-artificial neural network.

For this purpose, two models of portfolio optimization have been designed. Instead of a single-period portfolio model, a three-period model has been used. In order to bring the optimization models closer to the real world, in addition to the CVaR as one of the main constraints, the transaction cost and the lower bound and upper bound investment in each asset are also considered. two models of loss aversion and mean-CVaR optimization were solved using PSO algorithm. Also, some important criteria such as initial loss aversion coefficient and reference point are used to test the robustness of model. The results based on the optimal wealth and Sharp ratio showed that loss-averse investors tend to concentrate most of their wealth and have a better performance than rational investors. The impact of CVaR on investment performance was identified. When the market is falling, investors with higher risk aversion avoid extreme losses and obtain more gains. Manuscript profile -

To clarify users' decision path of financial data users, Beneish (1999) has developed a profit-management predicting model that has yielded different results in different societies. Thus, this article aims to optimize and localize Beneish’s model by adding the Tunneling variable to Beneish’s variable and using a modern neural network and particle swarm algorithms. The statistical research population consisted of 196 companies listed at the Tehran Stocks Exchange from 2014 to 2019. The research method was a descriptive-library method in which the variables are interrelated through the causal-correlational method. From an objective point of view, it is an Ex-Post Facto research design. To analyze the data, the regression method and artificial neural and the PSO algorithms were used. The model analysis results suggested that all financial ratios had significant effects on Beneish’s profit management, as the Tunneling phenomenon and the financial leverage had the highest and lowest effects on predicting Beneish’s profit management, respectively.

While cloud services MoreCloud computing is an emerging technology that is widely used to provide computing, data storage services and other remote resources over the Internet. Availability of cloud services is one of the most important concerns of cloud service providers. While cloud services are mainly transmitted over the Internet, they are prone to various attacks that may lead to the leakage of sensitive information. Distributed DDoS attack is known as one of the most important security threats to the cloud computing environment. This attack is an explicit attempt by an attacker to block or deny access to shared services or resources in a cloud environment. This paper discusses a hybrid approach to dealing with DDoS attack in the cloud computing environment. This method highlights the importance of effective feature-based selection methods and classification models. Here, an entropy-based approach and particle swarm optimization to counter these attacks in a cloud computing environment is presented. Classification on high-dimensional data typically requires feature selection as a pre-processing step to reduce the dimensionality. However, effective features selecting is a challenging task, which in this paper uses particle swarm optimization. Here, the proposed classification model is developed based on the use of a balanced binary search tree and dictionary data structure. The simulation is based on the NSL-KDD and CICDDoS2019 datasets, which prove the superiority of the proposed method with an average detection accuracy of 99.84% over the AGA and E-SVM algorithms.

Control to resistance is evaluated by analysis and analysis.The stability of the system is demonstrated using Lyapunov's direct method, and the simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed methods applied to a spherical robot driven by permanent magnet dc motors. Using the simulation results, the optimal values of the parameters in the torque controllers have not converged to their true values due to the large modelless dynamics, while they have converged to their true values in the voltage control because it has only parametric uncertainty. . Also, the torque control law requires position vector, velocity vector and acceleration vector feedback.These feedback can not be easily obtained. In contrast, the law of voltage control requires feedback from the position vector, velocity vector, current vector, and time derivative. These feedback can be easily accessed. Manuscript profile -

One of the main challenges in recommender systems is the sparsity of the user-item rating matrix. This means that users mainly tend to express their opinions about a few items, leading to a large portion of the user-item rating matrix being empty. Trust-based recommender systems aim to alleviate the sparsity problem using trust relationships between users. Trust relationships can be used to calculate similarity values between users and determine the nearest neighbors set for the target user. However, the efficiency of trust-based recommender systems depends on the correct selection of neighboring users for the target user based on the similarity values between users. Method: In this paper, a novel trust-based recommender system is proposed based on an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm. To this end, first, the similarity values between users are calculated based on the user-item rating matrix and trust relationships. Then, the improved particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to optimally weight the neighboring users of the target user. The main purpose of this algorithm is to assign an optimal weight to each user in the nearest neighbor set of the target user to predict the unknown items accurately. After the optimal weighting of neighboring users, unknown ratings are predicted for the target user. Results: The proposed method is evaluated on a standard dataset in terms of mean absolute error, root mean square error, and rate coverage metrics. Experimental results demonstrate the high efficiency of the proposed method compared to other methods. Discussion: We use the genetic algorithms operators and chaos-based asexual reproduction optimization algorithm to improve the original version of the particle swarm optimization algorithm. The genetic algorithms operators increase the exploration mechanism of the particle swarm optimization algorithm, leading to a decline in the probability of tapping into local optima. Moreover, the chaos-based asexual reproduction optimization algorithm is applied to the best solution to further search the area around the best solution. Manuscript profile -

To achieve this goal, a new control strategy has been presented in which the multi-model controller is optimized using the linear optimal controller (LOC) and the particle swarm algorithm (PSO). The control bank in the multi-model controller includes three LOC controllers that generate optimal signals through the linearization of the nonlinear equations of the system and the minimization of an energy function to be combined by the Bayes recursive algorithm simultaneously to the generator excitation system and SVC. In order to generate an optimal linear signal, Riccati's equation must be solved; Riccati's equation includes two weight matrices Rric and Qric. These matrices elements are optimized by PSO algorithm. The PSO algorithm has calculated the optimal Rric and Qric with two different objective functions of maximizing the eigenvalues and minimizing the area under the speed curve. To evaluate the MMC-LOC-PSO control strategy, the symmetrical three-phase error is applied to the worst bus and the results of these two objective functions are compared. The simulation of the single machine power system has been done by MATLAB. The proposed control strategy, while maintaining stability, also effectively damps the LFOs, in addition, the permanent rotor speed and rotor angle error have also been favorably pushed to zero.

However, the main problem is the high number of control parameters and the nonlinearity of the model of these systems, which makes solving the optimization problem very time-consuming and divergent in some cases. In this article, in order to optimize the control parameters, a method based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) is proposed. In this method, after linearization of the system model, the eigenvalues of the system are extracted as a function of the control parameters. By examining the sensitivity of eigenvalues to control parameters, more sensitive parameters are identified and optimized based on the PSO method. The performance of the proposed method has been investigated through simulation in the MATLAB software environment. Manuscript profile -

Cancer and tumors are divided in to two types, malignant and benign. Given the growth in the environmental information, it’s essential to employ some tools to analyze this data and gain the knowledge embedded in it. Since large-scale problems and huge data bases are incomprehensible for the human, employing intelligent methods is effective in understanding large-scale data better. In this paper, the integration methods are a subset of rating measures each with a specific objective of sustainable features for superior selection of distinct features.The next step would discuss creating a fuzzy system (FS) to detect and classify between benign and malignant nature of biological data. Fuzzy system type is Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK). To classify a hierarchical structure of multi-species particle swarm algorithm based on chaotic particle can be used to optimize the fuzzy system. In addition, using chaotic theory discerns the true diversity of the particles and increases the power to detect and classify the samples. Accurate identification and classification of malignant and benign biological nature of the data is more than 95%. This simulation is performed on UCI and Microarray data-base. Manuscript profile -

Achieving such goals comes in the context of a new concept called "organizational agility," but agility of the organization is influenced by its agents, which are the most influential factor in service companies. In this research, which the University of Science and Research has proposed as a case study, the employees are divided into three categories: Soft, Grievous, and Blind. These factors determine the three main elements of the agility of the supply chain organization: Agility drivers, agility abilities and agility capability. Also, using a particle swarm optimization algorithm, an intelligent model has been designed to measure the impact and impact of factors on each other. And after implementing the model in a case study at Time = 769, recovery is at best possible. Manuscript profile -

These methods are used to prevent human and financial losses and to increase the production rate. This thesis presents an intelligent troubleshooting system to diagnose centrifugal pump-bearing faults. As a result, to design this intelligent troubleshooting system, a test set including shaft, bearings and real support conditions was designed and implemented in the laboratory. In this setup, three bearings with Normal wear and fault conditions (defect on the outer race) were examined, and vibration data were obtained. Then, the vibration data in extraction time and statistical features were calculated. After that, these features were used as classifier input data for intelligent troubleshooting. To identify the defect, the independent component analysis method was used. Also, the accuracy of fault detection was improved by using the particle batch optimization method. Finally, it was found that the statistical feature of Percentile can detect bearing defects by combining independent component analysis and particle swarm optimization methods. Manuscript profile -

This causes an increase in the computation complexity of control law. In this paper, we consider the arrangement to ideal control issues for constrained piecewise affine systems based on demonstrating predictive control. After that, we utilize particle swarm optimization calculation to complexity diminishment of arrangement and alter the framework execution. In truth the point of the paper is twofold. To begin with, we consider the hypothetical comes about on the structure of the control law. At the minute, we portray how the complexity of deciding control law can be capable of decreased and moving forward system execution at the same time by utilizing particle swarm optimization. The considered calculation is associated with a Car on a constrained piecewise affine hill and the result is shown to the advantage of our analysis. The objective of the car is to climb to the top of a steep slope and then preserve its position at the top (the beginning), without falling from the piecewise affine environment. The number of control law polyhedrals diminishes from 129 to 25. Manuscript profile -

But the slow optimization process of the base structure method for two-dimensional Large-scale structures and the large number of basic structural elements, waste a lot of time to solve problems. The fixed nodes of the truss in minimum growth ground method with fixed nodes, which in some cases makes structures to find a local optimum. In this article we have tried to provide a new method, optimization of cross section and truss topology are in a way that the aforementioned problems are solved as far as possible and for this purpose the algorithm of growth ground method with floating nodes are suggested. In this method, instead of starting with the base structure with the most possible members of the structure, we start with a structure with minimum members and the basic structure grows until it satisfies the conditions and all nodes are added to the structure in a floating mode. Then, in this paper several standard example are used which are coded using MATLAB software and the obtained results in the form of growth ground method with floating nodes using optimization algorithm of particle swarm is compared to other methods. The results show that growth ground method with floating nodes has a very high Convergence rate compared to growth ground method and more Absolute optimization compared to the minimum growth ground method with fixed nodes.

The aim is to assign a location for the collection and disassemble center, vehicle routing, and material ordering in order to maximize the profit. In the study, a non-linear mathematical model is presented for small scale problems. Due to the NP-hardness of the problem, two met heuristics, genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization algorithm, are applied to solve medium and large scale problems. The algorithms are validated by comparing their results with those of the mathematical model. Finally, the performance comparison of the two met heuristics through statistical analysis is demonstrated that the particle swarm optimization algorithm performance outperforms the genetic algorithm.

In the proposed approach, the adaptive back-stepping method is used to construct the storage function to reduce internal and external disturbances. Also, a nonlinear controller with interference rejection feature and update of the nonlinear parameter substitution law are applied simultaneously. In this research, in order to maintain non-linearities feature, the real-time estimation of uncertain parameters, ensure robustness and insensitivity to large disturbances of the STATCOM system, the adaptive back-stepping sliding mode control method is applied in terms of error compensation design. It should be noted that the proposed controller has a large number of design parameters which affect its efficiency and performance. So, here the particle swarm optimization approach is used to determine the design parameters based on the cost function of the integral of the magnitude of the error. Finally, the simulation results are performed by MATLAB software, confirmed the better performance of the proposed optimal back-stepping sliding mode control method compared to traditional adaptive back-stepping in terms of the speed of adaptation and the response of the STATCOM system.

Wireless sensor networks MoreWith the spread of applications of wireless sensor networks, in recent years, the use of this type of network in order to monitor the environment and analyze data collected from specific environments in a variety of ways has become very common. Wireless sensor networks are one of the best options for collecting data from the environment due to their easy configuration and no need for expensive equipment. The energy of sensors in wireless sensor networks is limited, which is a major challenge due to the lack of a fixed charge source. Because most of the sensors' energy is wasted during data transmission, a sensor that transmits more data than others and transmits data over long distances with packets will run out of energy sooner than others. When a sensor in the network runs out of energy, the network process may be disrupted. Therefore, due to the dynamic topology and distributed nature of wireless sensor networks, designing energy efficient routing protocols is one of the main challenges. Therefore, in this article, energy-aware routing protocol based on multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm is presented. In the proposed approach, the fitness function of the particle swarm optimization algorithm for selecting the optimal cluster head based on quality-of-service goals including residual energy, link quality, end-to-end delay and delivery rate. The simulation results show that the proposed approach has less energy consuming and extend network lifetime due to balancing the goals of quality-of-service criteria than other approaches.

The main challenges of these type of systems is reaching to the optimum size in order to have an affordable system based on storing the solar and wind energy. In this paper, optimization of a solar-wind hybrid system is presented with a saving battery system for supplying a specific hourly load annually to minimize annual system expenses and the probability of Loss of Power Supply Probability (LPSP). Annual expenses of the system include initial investment, maintenance, and replacement costs. The purpose of optimization is to determine the numbers of solar panels, wind turbines, batteries, the height of the wind tower, and the angle of the solar panel toward solar radiation. For this issue, a new method named Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm (GOA) is employed. Also, the effects of changes in inverter efficiency, load demand, and of maximum probability of LPSP on system designing are evaluated. Simulation results show that the efficiency reduction, load increase, and increasing the load and maximum reliability in the system in the form of reducing of LPSP lead to an increase in annual energy costs of systems. Furthermore, the results indicate the superiority of the GOA method toward particle swarm optimization (PSO) in reaching better target function and less cost. Manuscript profile -

Utilizing Taguchi test design, the input variables including carbon dioxide laser power and the cutting speed for cutting three different thicknesses of Inconel 718 alloy were investigated in order to achieve the optimal conditions. After obtaining experimental test results, dataset was modeled using artificial neural networks. The neural network model is then used for evaluating candidate solutions in particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm which is employed for optimization of cutting conditions. The results indicated that when the laser power of is 1714 (W), the cutting speed is 1382 (mm/min) and the thickness of the material is 0.8 (mm), The best quality for cutting Inconel 718 is achieved with a carbon dioxide laser cutting machine. The results of optimal cutting parameters of Inconel alloy with carbon dioxide laser which were obtained by PSO were verified through an experimental test and similar papers. The results of this experimental test were very close to the optimal values of the PSO, which demonstrates the efficiency of neural network model in predicting the quality of cutting and the efficiency of PSO in finding optimal conditions.

This processing model refers to technologies that allow computing and storage to be performed on devices at the edge of the network. In this architecture, computing and storage operations take place close to objects and data sources. In order to reduce latency and network traffic between end devices and cloud centers, groups at the edge have processing capabilities, perform a large number of processing and computing tasks, including data processing, temporary storage, device management, decision making, and privacy protection. Since the number of edge devices is large, there must be a mechanism to select these tasks and offload them to the cloud. The problem to be decided is that which one of the available edge devices should be selected for unloading and then unloaded. This problem is classified as one of the hard non-polynomial problems and by using deterministic algorithms simply and in polynomial time, it is not possible to find a suitable and efficient solution for it found.

On the other hand, nonlinear analysis of structures requires time-consuming and voluminous computational operations, so in most of the codes, a simple and appropriate method called equivalent static method is presented to achieve a reasonable answer to the nonlinear behavior of the structure (without performing a nonlinear analysis). Therefore, due to the importance of ductility in the absorption of seismic energy, the computational forces caused by the earthquake are reduced by introducing the coefficient of structural behavior, R. In this paper, an extensive database consisting of 12,960 eccentrically braced frame (EBF) structures with varying story numbers of 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 20, three types of column stiffness and three degrees of bracing slenderness was designed and analyzed under 20 near-faults pulse-like earthquakes. To generate the estimated relation R, 6769 data were interpreted using particle swarm algorithm. The results of a correlation of 0.86 in the test data presented the accuracy of the proposed relation.

Optimization is a tool to find the best solution of a multi-modal problem. Nowadays engineers and designers are looking for optimal designs due to restriction of resources. Recently many optimization algorithms have been developed to takle complex problems, such as Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). This algorithm is known as a strong explorer but weak exploiter. The main problem is many internal parameters to be tuned. So that users should achive a set of sensitivity analyses to adjust them for the problem at hand, but in the mean time the obtainded values may not proper for other problems. In the present work, in order to overcome this shortcoming, a mutation mechanism as an important element of genetic algorithm is implemented in PSO. Each particle in the optimization proccess is assigned with a random number, then, as the procedure goes on, the random number of each individual is compared with a treshhold and if it is smaller than the treshhold, the particle gets mutated. This new algorithm entitled as modified particle swarm optimization (PSO). Three reinforced concrete MRF optimum design problems are solved by MPSO, PSO and results compared together with another research results based on HS algorithm. Studying the results show that MPSO compared with adjusted PSO by sensitivity analysis and HS, not only brings to better solutions, but it also does not need to any manual adjustment by sensitivity analysis.

In this study, based on data related to 140 companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange.we have attempted to predict stock price shocks with emphasis on financial ratios. In order to select the optimal variables from the set of 96 variables, two evolutionary algorithms of particle swarm optimization and genetic algorithm have been used. After applying the mentioned algorithms, finally, 8 variables affecting permanent and temporary shocks were extracted, which in the regression model mentioned in the research, their effect on the predictor of shock was investigated. the results of RSME model are the permanent shock (genetic algorithm), permanent shock (particle swarm optimization), temporary shock (genetic algorithm) and temporary shock (particle swarm optimization (particle swarm optimization), 5.8433 , 5.6284 , 7.537 and 7.295 . as we observe , RSME in permanent shock based on genetic algorithm is more than RSME permanent shock model based on the evolutionary algorithm of particle swarm optimization. also in the transient shock model based on the genetic algorithm , the model is more than RSME of the temporary shock model based on the evolutionary algorithm of particle swarm optimization . It can therefore be stated that the estimated regression is based on the selected variables from the evolutionary algorithm of the particle swarm optimization, and has better predictive power than the selected variables of the genetic algorithm.

Therefore, in order to maintain the stability of the car in swing states, the suspension system plays an essential role. Therefore, the active suspension system is used to replace the conventional passive suspension system, to improve comfort and smoothness. To reduce the displacement of the spring mass in the active vehicle suspension system, a high-order sliding mode controller is proposed in this paper. Uncertainty of system parameters, nonlinear characteristic of damping and spring, load changes and unknown path disturbance are estimated by disturbance observer. The controller only needs the information of the spring mass state variables and therefore does not need separate sensors to measure the suspension mass state variables. Particle swarm optimization algorithm has been used to determine the control parameters. The efficiency of the proposed method has been shown using simulation in MATLAB software and the results have been compared with the passive suspension system. Manuscript profile -

Consumers of smart houses have HEM, renewable energy sources and storage systems to reduce the bill. In this article, a new HEM model based on the time of usage pricing planning with renewable energy systems is proposed to use the energy more efficiently. The new meta-heuristic whale optimization algorithm (WOA) and the common meta-heuristic of particle swarm optimization (PSO) are used to achieve that. To improve the performance, a mapping chaos theory (CWOA) is proposed. Also, an independent solar energy source is used as a support of the microgrid to achieve a better performance. It is concluded that the energy saving achieved by the proposed algorithm is able to decrease the electricity bill by about 40-50% rather than the WOA and PSO methods. The proposed system is simulated in MATLAB environment. Manuscript profile -

Given the wide range of options in the stock market, one of the major concerns of investment groups is the optimal allocation of assets. Therefore, most of these collections use portfolio selection models. The conditional value at Risk, which is one of the models of portfolio selection, follows the Quadratic Programming. Given that Quadratic Programming requires extensive computations, the use of metaheuristic algorithms in solving these problems increases the speed and accuracy of computations. The aim of this study is to minimize the Conditional Value at Risk by using two algorithms of Imperialist Competitive Algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimization. Therefore, using 800 days of data from 12 companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange in the period of 2/5/92 to 1/28/98, portfolio has been formed, and the weight of each stock in the optimal portfolio and the risk and return of the portfolio has been calculated using MATLAB2018 software. Then, using SPSS software, the average difference between risk and return of the two algorithms was tested.The results showed that the risk and return of the two algorithms were not statistically significant,.

Thus, the time series of closed prices of 140 shares of companies in different industries per minute per day for the period from 28 May to 11 June for the years 1392 to 1398 was examined separately from the Tehran Stock Exchange. Also, the performance of the proposed model was compared with the performance of four wavelet transform models with neural network, moving average regression process, polynomial regression and naïve model. Mean absolute error, mean absolute error percentage, and mean square root of error were used as the main performance criteria. The results show that the performance of the proposed model for analyzing and predicting noisy financial time series based on mean absolute error, mean absolute error percentage and mean square root of error is better than other models (including: wavelet transform, moving average self-regression, regression Polynomial is the naïve model).

Risk is one of the basic concepts in financial markets that has a certain complexity. Due to the lack of a clear picture of risk realization, financial markets need risk control and management approaches. The present study is a descriptive survey in terms of data collection and applied in terms of purpose. The statistical population of this research includes all facility files of the last 10 years as well as the financial statements of Ansar Bank branches affiliated to Sepah Bank, which were selected by census method. The risk criteria used in the models are: fuzzy risk value, absolute value of fuzzy downward deviations and half entropy. Research models were implemented using multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm. The software used in conducting research is MATLAB software. The results show that the performance of the fuzzy risk-averaged model is better than the other two models in evaluating optimal portfolios. Therefore, the use of the above model in credit basket optimization is recommended. Manuscript profile -

In the traditional method, this forecasting is based on statistical models and in the intelligent method is based on artificial intelligence models. Traditional methods mainly use linear patterns to model market behavior, while the main advantage of smart models is the ability to learn and model nonlinear behaviors in the market. It has always been a question of which methods can better model market behavior, and despite the many models that have been proposed for forecasting, there is still an attempt to build a model that can use more effective variables for forecasting. Continues to be able to take into account factors such as time, risk and return. In this research, we have used the neural network to predict the industry index. This is done by ELM neural network using two optimization methods OSELM and PSO. The results show that the prediction accuracy of these two methods is not significantly different from each other, but in terms of execution time, the OSELM neural network algorithm has performed much better and faster.

In other Words, if the saving of individuals will be directed by appropriate mechanism to the manufacturing sector it brings efficiency not only to the owners of capital but also it can be considered as the most important funding for launching economic projects of society. In present study, three stock selection and optimization algorithms including genetic algorithm, particle swarm algorithm, and cultural algorithm has been studied. So, 106 listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange, since 2007 to 2014 were tested in order to investigate this. In this study, for plotting the efficient frontier and comprising of the optimal portfolio half of the variance is considered as the main factor of risk. This research investigates the significant difference between the averages of investment output in selected baskets based on three methods. The statistical analysis of the results shows that there is no difference between the three algorithms. However, in order to compare the two algorithms and analysis of superiority of algorithms, these two methods of optimization have been compared from two aspects of objective function, output ratio and risk. Since the objective function of genetic algorithms was less, in other word, it has the least error and gain the best result so in comparing to other algorithms it has been performed better which shows the relative superiority of these algorithms in the selection of the optimal portfolio.

This constitutes an efficient portfolio.Research Methodology: Attaining an efficient portfolio involves solving an optimization problem. There are numerous techniques and tools available to solve this issue. In this study, 15 stocks from companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange, including symbols such as Khapars, Khazamiya, Vepasar, Foulad, Akhabar, Kegel, Femli, Tapiko, Sepaha, Fazer, Fakhas, Shohbaran, Shefan, Qamro and Qathabat, were selected using cluster sampling. First, the daily returns of these stocks were calculated over a 5-year period from 2015 to 2020 (1183 days). The risk of the optimal investment portfolio was then calculated using the Mean-Semi Variance and Conditional Value at Risk models. These two criteria were compared using a classic solution method. Subsequently, the output data obtained from these calculations were compared using MATLAB software, employing the Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm under the Mean-Semi Variance risk criterion and the Genetic Algorithm under the Conditional Value at Risk criterion.Findings: The results of this study indicate that the meta-heuristic Particle Swarm Optimization method yields a higher portfolio return ratio compared to the Genetic Algorithm in the Mean-Semi Variance risk criterion.Originality / Value: This research utilizes multi-objective genetic algorithms and Particle Swarm Optimization, which are intelligent and novel algorithms, to minimize the objective function value using Conditional Value at Risk and Mean-Semi Variance criteria. These algorithms optimize the return and risk ratios of the stocks in the investment portfolio with the highest possible accuracy. Additionally, the efficiency comparison of these models using MATLAB software contributes an innovative aspect to this study. Manuscript profile -
