The paradigm, adaptive boosting (AB), uses a markedly different theory in solving the computational intelligence (CI) problem. AB, a new machine learning paradigm, focuses on finding weak learning algorithm(s) that initially need to provide slightly better than \"random\" performance (i.e., approximately 55%) when processing a mammogram training set. By successive development of additional architectures (using the mammogram training set), the adaptive boosting process improves performance of the basic evolutionary programming derived neural network architectures. The results of these several EP-derived hybrid architectures are then intelligently combined and tested using a similar validation mammogram data set. Optimization, focused on improving specificity and positive predictive value at very high sensitivities, with an analysis of the performance of the hybrid would be most meaningful. Using the DUKE mammogram database of 500 biopsy proven samples, this hybrid, on average, was able to achieve (under statistical 5-fold cross-validation) a specificity of 48.3% and a positive predictive value (PPV) of 51.8% while maintaining 100% sensitivity. At 97% sensitivity, a specificity of 56.6% and a PPV of 55.8% were obtained.","PeriodicalId":104202,"journal":{"name":"SMCia/01.

The paper addresses a novel feature selection procedure for QSAR based on genetic algorithms to reduce the curse of dimensionality problem. In this case the genetic algorithm minimizes a cost function derived from the correlation matrix between the features and the activity of interest that is being modeled. From a QSAR dataset with 160 features, the genetic algorithm selected a feature subset (40 features), which built a better predictive model than with full feature set. The results for feature reduction with genetic algorithm were also compared with neural network sensitivity analysis.","PeriodicalId":104202,"journal":{"name":"SMCia/01.

The first method extends the standard backpropagation training algorithm for MLPs whereas the second method employs genetic algorithms (GAs) to find the optimal neural network weights using both functional and co-located function derivative values. The GAs used for optimization of the weights of a feedforward artificial neural network use a special reordering of the genotype before recombination. The ultimate goal of this research effort is to be able to train and design an artificial neural networks (ANN) more effectively, i.e., to have a network that generalizes better, learns faster and requires fewer training data points. The initial results indicate that the methods do, in fact, provide good generalization while requiring only a relatively sparse sampling of the function and its derivative values during the training phase, as indicated by the illustrative examples.","PeriodicalId":104202,"journal":{"name":"SMCia/01.

A shorter start-up time not only reduces fuel and electricity consumption during the start-up process, but also increases its capability of adapting to changes in electricity demand. This scheduling problem is, however, highly nonlinear with a number of local optima within a wide search space. In our previous research, we proved that the optimal schedule stays on the edge of the feasible space, and provided an adaptive enforcement operation based on a theoretical setting equation. The adaptive enforcement operation used with GA is applied to compel the search along the edge of the feasible space, so as to increase the search efficiency. We give a brief description of the theoretical proof and present simulation test results with a range of hard-to-search stress limit sets to verify the search efficiency of the theoretically-proved search model.","PeriodicalId":104202,"journal":{"name":"SMCia/01.
