Based on the ant colony system(ACS)algorithm and fuzzy logic control,a new design method for optimal fuzzy PID controller was proposed.In this method,the ACS algorithm was used to optimize the input/output scaling factors of fuzzy PID controller to generate the optimal fuzzy control rules and optimal real-time control action on a given controlled object.The designed controller,called the Fuzzy-ACS PID controller,was used to control the CIP-I intelligent leg.The simulation experiments demonstrate that this controller has good control performance.Compared with other three optimal PID controllers designed respectively by using the differential evolution algorithm,the real-coded genetic algorithm,and the simulated annealing,it was verified that the Fuzzy-ACS PID controller has better control performance.Furthermore,the simulation results also verify that the proposed ACS algorithm has quick convergence speed,small solution variation,good dynamic convergence behavior,and high computation efficiency in searching for the optimal input/output scaling factors.
To preserve the original signal as much as possible and filter random noises as many as possible in image processing,a threshold optimization-based adaptive template filtering algorithm was proposed.Unlike conventional filters whose template shapes and coefficients were fixed,multi-templates were defined and the right template for each pixel could be matched adaptively based on local image characteristics in the proposed method.The superiority of this method was verified by former results concerning the matching experiment of actual image with the comparison of conventional filtering methods.The adaptive search ability of immune genetic algorithm with the elitist selection and elitist crossover(IGAE) was used to optimize threshold t of the transformation function,and then combined with wavelet transformation to estimate noise variance.Multi-experiments were performed to test the validity of IGAE.The results show that the filtered result of t obtained by IGAE is superior to that of t obtained by other methods,IGAE has a faster convergence speed and a higher computational efficiency compared with the canonical genetic algorithm with the elitism and the immune algorithm with the information entropy and elitism by multi-experiments.
