The quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO) applies the quantum computing theory to particle swarm optimization, and thus has the advantages of both quantum computing theory and particle swarm optimization, so it has a faster convergence rate and a more accurate convergence value. Therefore, QPSO is used as the evolutionary method of the proposed NSQPSO. Also NSQPSO is used to solve cognitive radio spectrum allocation problem. The methods to complete spectrum allocation in previous literature only consider one objective, i.e. network utilization or fairness, but the proposed NSQPSO method, can consider both network utilization and fairness simultaneously through obtaining Pareto front solutions. Cognitive radio systems can select one solution from the Pareto front solutions according to the weight of network reward and fairness. If one weight is unit and the other is zero, then it becomes single objective optimization, so the proposed NSQPSO method has a much wider application range. The experimental research results show that the NSQPS can obtain the same non-dominated solutions as exhaustive search but takes much less time in small dimensions; while in large dimensions, where the problem cannot be solved by exhaustive search, the NSQPSO can still solve the problem, which proves the effectiveness of NSQPSO.展开更多

Modified non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II(NSGA II) was used for multi-objective optimization of automotive S-rail considering absorbed energy(E), peak crushing force(Fmax) and mass of the structure(W) as three conflicting objective functions. In the multi-objective optimization problem(MOP), E and Fmax are defined by polynomial models extracted using the software GEvo M based on train and test data obtained from numerical simulation of quasi-static crushing of the S-rail using ABAQUS. Finally, the nearest to ideal point(NIP)method and technique for ordering preferences by similarity to ideal solution(TOPSIS) method are used to find the some trade-off optimum design points from all non-dominated optimum design points represented by the Pareto fronts. Results represent that the optimum design point obtained from TOPSIS method exhibits better trade-off in comparison with that of optimum design point obtained from NIP method.展开更多
