Discrete artificial bee colony algorithm for solving network reconfiguration problem

3rd IET International Conference on Clean Energy and Technology (CEAT) 2014, 2014
Network Reconfiguration is one of the key tools in planning and operation of medium voltage distribution system. Network reconfiguration problem differs from other power system problems (including optimum DG placement or shunt capacitor bank placement in radial distribution system). In network reconfiguration problem, tie switches represent the integer

Discrete Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm based Optical Character Recognition

2017 14th IEEE India Council International Conference (INDICON), 2017
Recognizing and processing documents, especially historical manuscripts, has been a challenge owing to the difficulty in identifying cursive handwritten characters. This paper presents a simple technique for Optical Character Recognition based on Swarm intelligence to extract textual information from printed or handwritten documents.

Chaotic Artificial Bee Colony Hybrid Discrete Constrained Optimization Algorithm

Journal of Convergence Information Technology, 2012
Swarm intelligence is a research branch that models the population of interacting agents or swarms that are able to self-organize. An ant colony, a flock of birds or an immune system is a typical example of a swarm system. Bees’ swarming around their hive is another example of swarm intelligence.

Minimizing the Total Flowtime Flowshop with Blocking Using a Discrete Artificial Bee Colony

2012
This paper considers a discrete artificial bee colony (DABC) algorithm for the blocking flow shop (BFS) scheduling problem to minimize total flowtime. The DABC algorithm utilizes discrete job permutations to represent food sources and applies discrete operators to generate new food sources for the employed bees, onlookers and scouts.

A Discrete Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm Based on Similarity for Graph Coloring Problems

2016
In this paper, a novel non-hybrid discrete artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is proposed for solving planar graph coloring problems. The original ABC intends to handle only continuous optimization problems. To apply ABC to discrete problems, the original ABC operators need to be redefined over discrete space.

BABC: A Binary Version of Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm for Discrete Optimization

International Journal of Advancements in Computing Technology, 2012
The Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm recently gained high popularity by providing a robust and efficient approach for solving continuous optimization problems. In order to apply ABC in discrete landscape, a binary version of artificial bee colony (BABC) algorithm is proposed in this manuscript.

An efficient discrete artificial bee colony algorithm for total flowtime lot-streaming flowshop

2012 9th International Conference on Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery, 2012
The lot-streaming flow shop scheduling problem has important applications in modern industry. This paper considers an n-job m-machine lot-streaming flow shop scheduling problem where the objective is to minimize the total flowtime. To solve this problem, a new discrete artificial bee colony (DABC) algorithm is proposed.

To bee or not to bee—comments on “Discrete optimum design of truss structures using artificial bee colony algorithm”

Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization, 2011
An Artificial Bee Colony algorithm was presented by Sonmez (Struct Multidisc Optim 43:85---97, 2011) for solving discrete truss design problems. It was numerically tested on four benchmark examples and concluded to be robust and efficient. We compare the Artificial Bee Colony algorithm numerically to three alternative heuristics on the same benchmark ...
