This document proposes a new genetic ant colony optimization algorithm for solving the multiple traveling salesman problem (mTSP). The algorithm combines properties of genetic algorithms and ant colony optimization. Each salesman's route is determined using ant colony optimization, while the routes of different salesmen are combined into a complete solution controlled by the genetic algorithm. The algorithm is tested on benchmark problem instances and shown to perform efficiently compared to other existing algorithms for mTSP. Key aspects of the algorithm include the representation of solutions, crossover operators that always generate feasible solutions, and the integration of ant colony optimization and genetic algorithms.
A COMPARISON BETWEEN SWARM INTELLIGENCE ALGORITHMS FOR ROUTING PROBLEMSecij
Travelling salesman problem (TSP) is a most popular combinatorial routing problem, belongs to the class of NP-hard problems. Many approacheshave been proposed for TSP.Among them, swarm intelligence (SI) algorithms can effectively achieve optimal tours with the minimum lengths and attempt to avoid trapping in local minima points. The transcendence of each SI is depended on the nature of the problem. In our studies, there has been yet no any article, which had compared the performance of SI algorithms for TSP perfectly. In this paper,four common SI algorithms are used to solve TSP, in order to compare the performance of SI algorithms for the TSP problem. These algorithms include genetic algorithm, particle swarm optimization, ant colony optimization, and artificial bee colony. For each SI, the various parameters and operators were tested, and the best values were selected for it. Experiments oversome benchmarks fromTSPLIBshow that
artificial bee colony algorithm is the best one among the fourSI-basedmethods to solverouting problems like TSP.

IMAGE REGISTRATION USING ADVANCED TOPOLOGY PRESERVING RELAXATION LABELING csandit
This paper presents a relaxation labeling technique with newly defined compatibility measures
for solving a general non-rigid point matching problem. In the literature, there exists a point
matching method using relaxation labeling, however, the compatibility coefficients always take
a binary value zero or one depending on whether a point and a neighboring point have
corresponding points. Our approach generalizes this relaxation labeling approach. The
compatibility coefficients take n-discrete values which measures the correlation between edges.
We use log-polar diagram to compute correlations. Through simulations, we show that this
topology preserving relaxation method improves the matching performance significantly
compared to other state-of-the-art algorithms such as shape context, thin plate spline-robust
point matching, robust point matching by preserving local neighborhood structures and
coherent point drift.
A NEW ALGORITHM FOR SOLVING FULLY FUZZY BI-LEVEL QUADRATIC PROGRAMMING PROBLEMSorajjournal
This paper is concerned with new method to find the fuzzy optimal solution of fully fuzzy bi-level non-linear (quadratic) programming (FFBLQP) problems where all the coefficients and decision variables of both objective functions and the constraints are triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs). A new method is based on decomposed the given problem into bi-level problem with three crisp quadratic objective functions and bounded variables constraints. In order to often a fuzzy optimal solution of the FFBLQP problems, the concept of tolerance membership function is used to develop a fuzzy max-min decision model for generating satisfactory fuzzy solution for FFBLQP problems in which the upper-level decision maker (ULDM) specifies his/her objective functions and decisions with possible tolerances which are described by membership functions of fuzzy set theory. Then, the lower-level decision maker (LLDM) uses this preference information for ULDM and solves his/her problem subject to the ULDMs restrictions. Finally, the decomposed method is illustrated by numerical example.

Global Optimization with Descending Region AlgorithmLoc Nguyen
Global optimization is necessary in some cases when we want to achieve the best solution or we require a new solution which is better the old one. However global optimization is a hazard problem. Gradient descent method is a well-known technique to find out local optimizer whereas approximation solution approach aims to simplify how to solve the global optimization problem. In order to find out the global optimizer in the most practical way, I propose a so-called descending region (DR) algorithm which is combination of gradient descent method and approximation solution approach. The ideology of DR algorithm is that given a known local minimizer, the better minimizer is searched only in a so-called descending region under such local minimizer. Descending region is begun by a so-called descending point which is the main subject of DR algorithm. Descending point, in turn, is solution of intersection equation (A). Finally, I prove and provide a simpler linear equation system (B) which is derived from (A). So (B) is the most important result of this research because (A) is solved by solving (B) many enough times. In other words, DR algorithm is refined many times so as to produce such (B) for searching for the global optimizer. I propose a so-called simulated Newton – Raphson (SNR) algorithm which is a simulation of Newton – Raphson method to solve (B). The starting point is very important for SNR algorithm to converge. Therefore, I also propose a so-called RTP algorithm, which is refined and probabilistic process, in order to partition solution space and generate random testing points, which aims to estimate the starting point of SNR algorithm. In general, I combine three algorithms such as DR, SNR, and RTP to solve the hazard problem of global optimization. Although the approach is division and conquest methodology in which global optimization is split into local optimization, solving equation, and partitioning, the solution is synthesis in which DR is backbone to connect itself with SNR and RTP.

In the classical model, the fundamental building block is represented by bits exists in two states a 0 or a 1. Computations are done by logic gates on the bits to produce other bits. By increasing the number of bits, the complexity of problem and the time of computation increases. A quantum algorithm is a sequence of operations on a register to transform it into a state which when measured yields the desired result. This paper provides introduction to quantum computation by developing qubit, quantum gate and quantum circuits.

Effect of grid adaptive interpolation over depth imagescsandit
A suitable interpolation method is essential to keep the noise level minimum along with the timedelay.
In recent years, many different interpolation filters have been developed for instance
H.264-6 tap filter, and AVS- 4 tap filter. This work demonstrates the effects of a four-tap lowpass
tap filter (Grid-adaptive filter) on a hole-filled depth image. This paper provides (i) a
general form of uniform interpolations for both integer and sub-pixel locations in terms of the
sampling interval and filter length, and (ii) compares the effect of different finite impulse
response filters on a depth-image. Furthermore, the author proposed and investigated an
integrated Grid-adaptive filter, that implement hole-filling and interpolation concurrently,
causes reduction in time-delay noticeably along with high PSNR .
The Traveling salesman problem (TSP) is proved to be NP-complete in most cases. The genetic algorithm
(GA) is one of the most useful algorithms for solving this problem. In this paper a conventional GA is
compared with an improved hybrid GA in solving TSP. The improved or hybrid GA consist of
conventional GA and two local optimization strategies. The first strategy is extracting all sequential
groups including four cities of samples and changing the two central cities with each other. The second
local optimization strategy is similar to an extra mutation process. In this step with a low probability a
sample is selected. In this sample two random cities are defined and the path between these cities is
reversed. The computation results show that the proposed method also finds better paths than the
conventional GA within an acceptable computation time.

The railway capacity optimization problem deals with the maximization of the number of trains running on
a given network per unit time. In this study, we frame this problem as a typical asymmetrical Travelling

ATSP total cost representing the total time-interval of the schedule. The application problem is then
optimized using the standard Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm. The simulation experiments
validate the formulation of the railway capacity problem as an ATSP and the ACO algorithm produces

Hybrid iterated local search algorithm for optimization route of airplane tr...IJECEIAES
The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is a very popular combinatorics problem. This problem has been widely applied to various real problems. The TSP problem has been classified as a Non-deterministic Polynomial Hard (NP-Hard), so a non-deterministic algorithm is needed to solve this problem. However, a non-deterministic algorithm can only produce a fairly good solution but does not guarantee an optimal solution. Therefore, there are still opportunities to develop new algorithms with better optimization results. This research develops a new algorithm by hybridizing three local search algorithms, namely, iterated local search (ILS) with simulated annealing (SA) and hill climbing (HC), to get a better optimization result. This algorithm aimed to solve TSP problems in the transportation sector, using a case study from the Traveling Salesman Challenge 2.0 (TSC 2.0). The test results show that the developed algorithm can optimize better by 15.7% on average and 11.4% based on the best results compared to previous studies using the TabuSA algorithm.

An Improved Adaptive Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization for Disassem...IJRESJOURNAL
With the development of productivity and the fast growth of the economy, environmental pollution, resource utilization and low product recovery rate have emerged subsequently, so more and more attention has been paid to the recycling and reuse of products. However, since the complexity of disassembly line balancing problem (DLBP) increases with the number of parts in the product, finding the optimal balance is computationally intensive. In order to improve the computational ability of particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm in solving DLBP, this paper proposed an improved adaptive multi-objective particle swarm optimization (IAMOPSO) algorithm. Firstly, the evolution factor parameter is introduced to judge the state of evolution using the idea of fuzzy classification and then the feedback information from evolutionary environment is served in adjusting inertia weight, acceleration coefficients dynamically. Finally, a dimensional learning strategy based on information entropy is used in which each learning object is uncertain. The results from testing in using series of instances with different size verify the effect of proposed algorithm.
The Optimizing Multiple Travelling Salesman Problem Using Genetic Algorithmijsrd.com
The traveling salesman problem (TSP) supports the idea of a single salesperson traveling in a continuous trip visiting all n cities exactly once and returning to the starting point. The multiple traveling salesman problems (mTSP) is complex combinatorial optimization problem, which is a generalization of the well-known Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP), where one or more salesman can be used in the path. In this paper mTSP has also been studied and solved with GA in the form of the vehicle scheduling problem. The existing model is new models are compared to both mathematically and experimentally. This work presents a chromosome methodology setting up the MTSP to be solved using a GA.

Power plants release a large amount of water vapor into the
atmosphere through the stack. The flue gas can be a potential
source for obtaining much needed cooling water for a power
plant. If a power plant could recover and reuse a portion of this
moisture, it could reduce its total cooling water intake
requirement. One of the most practical way to recover water
from flue gas is to use a condensing heat exchanger. The power
plant could also recover latent heat due to condensation as well
as sensible heat due to lowering the flue gas exit temperature.
Additionally, harmful acids released from the stack can be
reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation. reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation.
Condensation of vapors in flue gas is a complicated
phenomenon since heat and mass transfer of water vapor and
various acids simultaneously occur in the presence of noncondensable
gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Design of a
condenser depends on the knowledge and understanding of the
heat and mass transfer processes. A computer program for
numerical simulations of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
condensation in a flue gas condensing heat exchanger was
developed using MATLAB. Governing equations based on
mass and energy balances for the system were derived to
predict variables such as flue gas exit temperature, cooling
water outlet temperature, mole fraction and condensation rates
of water and sulfuric acid vapors. The equations were solved
using an iterative solution technique with calculations of heat
and mass transfer coefficients and physical properties.
