Intelligent optimization algorithm based on benchmarking by Anshi XIE

“…Many of the issues in scientific research,engineeringand management can be transformed into optimization problems.The various methods applied to these problems were a variety of models.Designing different methods was designing different models.The theme was to model the benchmarking philosophy in business management as a meta-heuristic search method for single objective bound-constrained real-parameter optimization problems.According to the principle of Occam’s Razor,many complicated operators and their probability tuning rules were abandoned and a simple framework was used to organize the core operators to achieve the effect of many composition algorithms.…”

Accurate Predicting the Surface Tension of Vegetable-Oil-Based Fuels Using Gibbs’ Thermodynamic Additivity as an Alternative to QSPR by Nichaphat Sitthisuk, Kaokanya Sudaprasert, Suriya Phankosol, Vittaya Punsuvon

“…The six economic saturated/unsaturated vegetable oil samples (rapeseed, sunflower, soybean, palm, corn, and grapeseed oil) are used as the comparison cases for the predictive model of surface tension. The proposed model is formulated by the concept of the Gibbs energy additivity method (GEAM) which apply two properties of oils composition such as the number of carbon atoms (z) and the number of double bonds (nd) of fatty acid at various temperatures to predict surface tension through the regression model. …”
