Abstract In many fields such as signal processing, machine learning, pattern recognition and data mining, it is common practice to process datasets containing huge numbers of features. In such cases, Feature Selection (FS) is often involved. Meanwhile, owing to their excellent global search ability, evolutionary computation techniques have been widely employed to the FS. So, as a powerful global search method and calculation fast than other EC algorithms, PSO can solve features selection problems well. However, when facing a large number of feature selection, the efficiency of PSO drops significantly. Therefore, plenty of works have been done to improve this situation.… More >

Abstract Personalization in recommendation system has been emerging as the most predominant area in service computing. Collaborative filtering and content based approaches are two major techniques applied for recommendation. However, to improve the accuracy and enhance user satisfaction, optimization techniques such as Ant Colony and Particle Swarm Optimization were analyzed in this paper. For theoretical analysis, this paper investigates web page recommender system. For experimentation, Diabetic patient’s health records were investigated and recommendation algorithms are applied to suggest appropriate nutrition for improving their health. Experiment result shows that Particle Swarm Optimization outperforms other traditional methods with improved performance and accuracy. More >

Abstract Medical images are obtained straight from the medical acquisition devices so that, the image quality becomes poor and may contain noises. Low contrast and poor quality are the major issues in the production of medical images. Medical imaging enhancement technology gives way to solve these issues; it helps the doctors to see the interior portions of the body for early diagnosis, also it improves the features the visual aspects of an image for a right diagnosis. This paper proposes a new blend of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Accelerated Particle Swarm Optimization (APSO) called Hybrid Partial Swarm Optimization (HPSO) to… More >
