Optimization based on symbiotic multi-species coevolution

Bacterial colony foraging algorithm: Combining chemotaxis, cell-to-cell communication, and self-adaptive strategy

“…Our several previous studies suggest a static RFID network optimization model based on evolutionary algorithms and swarm intelligence [17,29,31]. Without considering the dynamic of RFID tags, it was shown that RFID network optimization can be modeled as a multi-objective optimization problem, where coverage, interference, economic efficiency and network load balance are particularly considered as the primary requirements of the RFID system.…”

Bacterial colony foraging optimization

“…The classical test suite includes ten 30-dimension benchmark functions, which are commonly used in evolutionary computation literature [17,27,33] to show solution quality and convergence rate. The first problem is the unimodal Sphere function (f 1 ) that is easy to solve.…”

RFID networks planning using a multi-swarm optimizer

“…cellular radio network, wireless sensor network, and RFID network), such as Evolution Strategies, Genetic Algorithm, and Particle swarm Optimization [5]. In this paper, a novel multi-swarm optimizer, called PS 2 O [6], which extend the single population PSO to interacting multi-swarms model by constructing hierarchical interaction topologies and enhanced dynamical update equations, is proposed for solving the networking problem in RFID systems. By incorporating the new degree of complexity, PS 2 O can accommodate a considerable potential for solving more complex problems.…”
