Since mathematical models that consider realistic industrial conditions were not available, a new mathematical model design involving industrial conditions was first developed. Batch fermentations are multiobjective dynamic processes that must be guided along optimal paths to obtain good results.The paper describes a direct way to apply a Pareto set approach with multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs).Successful finding of optimal ways to drive these processes were reported.Once obtained, the mathematical fermentation model was used to optimize the fermentation process by using an intelligent control based on certain rules.展开更多

The use of wavelets to approximate time-domain control functions is investigated. The formulation for numerical computation is developed. Numerical examples include the optimal shock isolation of a SDOF system and the optimal i mpact isolation of a MDOF system. Computational results show that compactly supp orted wavelets can represent abrupt changes in control functions better than tri gonometric series and considerably increase computational efficiency.展开更多

The important features of an agent system such as the latency of the network infrastructure, dynamic topology, and node heterogeneity impose new challenges on the task allocation in Multi-Agent environments. Based on the traditional parallel computing task allocation method and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), a novel task allocation method named Collection Path Ant Colony Optimization (CPACO) is proposed to achieve global optimization and reduce processing time. The existing problems of ACO are analyzed; CPACO overcomes such problems by modifying the heuristic function and the update strategy in the Ant-Cycle Model and establishing a threedimensional path pheromone storage space. The experimental results show that CPACO consumed only 10.3% of the time taken by the Global Search Algorithm and exhibited better performance than the Forward Optimal Heuristic Algorithm.展开更多

Specif- ically, the subjective weights depending on experts＇ experience are substituted by the optimal weights. The optimal weights are acquired through constructing a mathematical programming model based on subjective weights and objective weights. The method of solving subjective weights is the same as before, and the objective weights were solved by means of grey theory. The case analysis shows that the method of improved weighted sum can improve the evaluation precision up to more than 5% , and minimize the instability of calculation precision resulting from only using subjective weights. The method that the optimal weights substituted the subjective weights is brought forward in improving evaluation precision for the first time. The ideas of the optimal weights and the pro- posed method are described and analyzed.展开更多
