From various algorithms Differential Evolution (DE) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms are used to encode in a vector form and in sharing information and both approaches are based on the master-apprentice mechanism for the Dual Evolution Strategy. In order to overcome the challenges like the clustering of PSO, optimization problems and maximum and minimum searching, a new approach is developed with the improvement of searching and efficient process. In this paper, an Enhanced Hybrid Differential Evolution and Particle Swarm Optimization (EHDE-PSO) is proposed with Dynamic Sigmoid Weight using parallel procedures. A hybrid form of the proposed approach combines the optimizing algorithm of Enhanced PSO with the Differential Evolution (DE) for the improvement of computation using parallel process. The implementation and the parallel process are analyzed and discussed to gather relevant data to show the performance enhancement which is better than the existing algorithm.展开更多

This is often characterized by grave socio-economic aftermath effects. Urban fire outbreak in Nigerian cities has been on increase in recent times. The major problem faced by fire fighters in Nigerian urban centres is that there are no mechanisms to detect fire outbreaks early enough to save lives and properties. They often rely on calls made by neighbours or occupants when an outbreak occurs and this accounts for the delay in fighting fire outbreaks. This work uses Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) with backpropagation method to detect the occurrence of urban fires. The method uses smoke density, room temperature and cooking gas concentration as inputs. The work was implemented using Java programming language and results showed that it detected the occurrence of urban fires with reasonable accuracy. The work is recommended for use to minimize the effect of urban fire outbreak.展开更多
