This paper introduces the ant colony system (ACS), a distributed algorithm that is applied to the traveling salesman problem (TSP). In the ACS, a set of cooperating agents called ants cooperate to find good solutions to ...

This paper evaluates the application of the computational intelligence methodologies in a nonlinear process identification. The different intelligent methodologies utilized are evolutionary computation (hybrid genetic al...

In this paper several evolutionary computation paradigms in process identification and control are utilized. The following methodologies are addressed: i) genetic algorithms (with floating point representation), ii) hybr...

A framework is developed to explore the connection between effective optimization algorithms and the problems they are solving. A number of "no free lunch" (NFL) theorems are presented which establish that for any algori...
