Previous issue date: 2016-05-10 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (Capes) / Brazil has an Exclusive Economic Zone that is very extensive and rich, both in its biodiversity as in its mineral resources. In order to exploit these resources and ensure safety for navigation, Brazil must ensure its sovereignty over this part of its territory. For this purpose, Brazil has the Naval Power exercised by the Brazilian Navy. Among the operations carried out by the Navy there are the search and reconnaissance missions, carried out by ships and by naval aircraft. This work is focused on reconnaissance missions carried out by naval aircraft. The main objective is the evaluation of meta-heuristics for the development of an application that can generate optimized routes for aircraft in the missions, attending the requirements of the Brazilian Navy. This work presents the methods developed based on two nature inspired meta-heuristics, for the elaboration of optimized routes for aircraft. The method is complying with two main constraints for these missions: checkpoints (targets) mobility and the limit of aircraft autonomy. It also presents the results of tests performed with the methods developed in this work and a general evaluation of their performance. / O Brasil possui uma área de Zona Econômica Exclusiva muito extensa e muito rica, tanto na sua biodiversidade como em recursos minerais. Porém, para poder explorar estas riquezas e garantir a segurança para a navegação destas águas o Brasil precisa assegurar sua soberania sobre esta parte de seu território. Para isso conta com o Poder Naval exercido pela Marinha do Brasil, que entre as operações por ela realizadas estão as missões de busca e esclarecimento, tanto por embarcações, como por aeronaves embarcadas. Este trabalho tem seu foco nas operações de esclarecimento por aeronaves embarcadas, tendo como objetivo principal a avaliação de meta-heurísticas para a elaboração de uma aplicação capaz de gerar rotas otimizadas para as aeronaves, em missões de esclarecimento, as quais atendam as necessidades da Marinha do Brasil. Neste trabalho, são apresentados os métodos desenvolvidos com base em duas meta-heurísticas, baseadas na natureza, para a elaboração de rotas otimizadas para as aeronaves, atendendo a duas restrições fundamentais em missões de esclarecimento aéreo, a mobilidade dos pontos de checagem (alvos) e o limite de autonomia das aeronaves. Também são apresentados os resultados dos testes realizados com os métodos desenvolvidos e uma avaliação geral dos seus desempenhos.

Pattern discovery for deciphering gene regulation based on evolutionary computation. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2010 (has links)
On TFBS motif discovery, three novel GA based algorithms are developed, namely GALF-P with focus on optimization, GALF-G for modeling, and GASMEN for spaced motifs. Novel memetic operators are introduced, namely local filtering and probabilistic refinement, to significantly improve effectiveness (e.g. 73% better than MEME) and efficiency (e.g. 4.49 times speedup) in search. The GA based algorithms have been extensively tested on comprehensive synthetic, real and benchmark datasets, and shown outstanding performances compared with state-of-the-art approaches. Our algorithms also "evolve" to handle more and more relaxed cases, namely from fixed motif widths to most flexible widths, from single motifs to multiple motifs with overlapping control, from stringent motif instance assumption to very relaxed ones, and from contiguous motifs to generic spaced motifs with arbitrary spacers. / TF-TFBS associated sequence pattern (rule) discovery is further investigated for better deciphering protein-DNA interactions in regulation. We for the first time generalize previous exact TF-TFBS rules to approximate ones using a progressive approach. A customized algorithm is developed, outperforming MEME by over 73%. The approximate TF-TFBS rules, compared with the exact ones, have significantly more verified rules and better verification ratios. Detailed analysis on PDB cases and conservation verification on NCBI protein records illustrate that the approximate rules reveal the flexible and specific protein-DNA interactions with much greater generalized capability. / The comprehensive pattern discovery algorithms developed will be further verified, improved and extended to further deciphering transcriptionial regulation, such as inferring whole gene regulatory networks by applying TFBS and TF-TFBS patterns discovered and incorporating expression data. / Transcription Factor (TF) and Transcription Factor Binding Site (TFBS) bindings are fundamental protein-DNA interactions in transcriptional regulation. TFs and TFBSs are conserved to form patterns (motifs) due to their important roles for controlling gene expressions and finally affecting functions and appearances. Pattern discovery is thus important for deciphering gene regulation, which has tremendous impacts on the understanding of life, bio-engineering and therapeutic applications. This thesis contributes to pattern discovery involving TFBS motifs and TF-TFBS associated sequence patterns based on Evolutionary Computation (EC), especially Genetic Algorithms (GAs), which are promising for bioinformatics problems with huge and noisy search space. / Chan, Tak Ming. / Advisers: Kwong-Sak Leung; Kin-Hong Lee. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 73-03, Section: B, page: . / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2010. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 147-153). / Electronic reproduction.

Experimentos em simulações paralelas do Dilema do Prisioneiro com n jogadores. / Experiments in parallel simulations of the n-player Prisoner\'s Dilemma.Diego de Queiroz Macedo 24 August 2011 (has links)
O Dilema do Prisioneiro com n jogadores é um problema que ilustra a dificuldade na formação da cooperação em sociedades de indivíduos racionais. Diversos trabalhos foram feitos no sentido de compreender melhor os fatores que influenciam o surgimento e a evolução da cooperação nessas sociedades, sendo que muitos desses mostraram que a simulação deste tipo de problema carece de escalabilidade, o que impede a realização de experimentos que envolvam uma grande quantidade de agentes ou de parâmetros de teste. Este trabalho tem o intuito de aplicar conceitos de computação paralela para tratar este problema. Para tal, foi desenvolvido um sistema denominado PS2 E2 , evolução de um trabalho anterior, cuja utilização em alguns cenários possibilitou a verificação da influência de alguns parâmetros tais como o tamanho da população e a expressividade do modelo de representação de estratégias na utilidade global de um conjunto de agentes que jogam o Dilema do Prisioneiro com n jogadores. / The n-Player Prisoners Dilemma is a problem that illustrates the difficulty of cooperation formation in societies composed of rational individuals. Several studies were made to better understand the factors that influence the emergence and evolution of cooperation in these societies. Many of these showed that the simulation of this type of problem lacks scalability, which hinders the achievement of experiments involving a large number of agents or test parameters. This work intends to apply parallel computing concepts to treat this problem. To this end, it was developed a system called PS2 E2 , an evolution of a previous work, whose utilization in some scenarios allowed the verification of the influence of some parameters such as the population size and the expressiveness of the strategy representation model in the global utility of a society of agents that play the n-Player Prisoner Dilemma.

Cooperative coevolutionary mixture of experts : a neuro ensemble approach for automatic decomposition of classification problemsNguyen, Minh Ha, Information Technology & Electrical Engineering, Australian Defence Force Academy, UNSW January 2006 (has links)
Artificial neural networks have been widely used for machine learning and optimization. A neuro ensemble is a collection of neural networks that works cooperatively on a problem. In the literature, it has been shown that by combining several neural networks, the generalization of the overall system could be enhanced over the separate generalization ability of the individuals. Evolutionary computation can be used to search for a suitable architecture and weights for neural networks. When evolutionary computation is used to evolve a neuro ensemble, it is usually known as evolutionary neuro ensemble. In most real-world problems, we either know little about these problems or the problems are too complex to have a clear vision on how to decompose them by hand. Thus, it is usually desirable to have a method to automatically decompose a complex problem into a set of overlapping or non-overlapping sub-problems and assign one or more specialists (i.e. experts, learning machines) to each of these sub-problems. An important feature of neuro ensemble is automatic problem decomposition. Some neuro ensemble methods are able to generate networks, where each individual network is specialized on a unique sub-task such as mapping a subspace of the feature space. In real world problems, this is usually an important feature for a number of reasons including: (1) it provides an understanding of the decomposition nature of a problem; (2) if a problem changes, one can replace the network associated with the sub-space where the change occurs without affecting the overall ensemble; (3) if one network fails, the rest of the ensemble can still function in their sub-spaces; (4) if one learn the structure of one problem, it can potentially be transferred to other similar problems. In this thesis, I focus on classification problems and present a systematic study of a novel evolutionary neuro ensemble approach which I call cooperative coevolutionary mixture of experts (CCME). Cooperative coevolution (CC) is a branch of evolutionary computation where individuals in different populations cooperate to solve a problem and their fitness function is calculated based on their reciprocal interaction. The mixture of expert model (ME) is a neuro ensemble approach which can generate networks that are specialized on different sub-spaces in the feature space. By combining CC and ME, I have a powerful framework whereby it is able to automatically form the experts and train each of them. I show that the CCME method produces competitive results in terms of generalization ability without increasing the computational cost when compared to traditional training approaches. I also propose two different mechanisms for visualizing the resultant decomposition in high-dimensional feature spaces. The first mechanism is a simple one where data are grouped based on the specialization of each expert and a color-map of the data records is visualized. The second mechanism relies on principal component analysis to project the feature space onto lower dimensions, whereby decision boundaries generated by each expert are visualized through convex approximations. I also investigate the regularization effect of learning by forgetting on the proposed CCME. I show that learning by forgetting helps CCME to generate neuro ensembles of low structural complexity while maintaining their generalization abilities. Overall, the thesis presents an evolutionary neuro ensemble method whereby (1) the generated ensemble generalizes well; (2) it is able to automatically decompose the classification problem; and (3) it generates networks with small architectures.

Previous issue date: 2011-02-17 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior / The Multiobjective Spanning Tree is a NP-hard Combinatorial Optimization problem whose
application arises in several areas, especially networks design. In this work, we propose a
solution to the biobjective version of the problem through a Transgenetic Algorithm named
ATIS-NP. The Computational Transgenetic is a metaheuristic technique from Evolutionary
Computation whose inspiration relies in the conception of cooperation (and not competition)
as the factor of main influence to evolution. The algorithm outlined is the evolution of a work
that has already yielded two other transgenetic algorithms. In this sense, the algorithms
previously developed are also presented. This research also comprises an experimental
analysis with the aim of obtaining information related to the performance of ATIS-NP when
compared to other approaches. Thus, ATIS-NP is compared to the algorithms previously
implemented and to other transgenetic already presented for the problem under consideration.
The computational experiments also address the comparison to two recent approaches from
literature that present good results, a GRASP and a genetic algorithms. The efficiency of the
method described is evaluated with basis in metrics of solution quality and computational
time spent. Considering the problem is within the context of Multiobjective Optimization,
quality indicators are adopted to infer the criteria of solution quality. Statistical tests evaluate
the significance of results obtained from computational experiments / A ?rvore Geradora Multiobjetivo ? um problema de Otimiza??o Combinat?ria NP-?rduo.
