Flower Pollination Algorithm (FPA) is one of the latest evolutionary algorithms (EAs) inspired by the natural process of pollination of flowers. This Paper addresses the development of FPA toolkit in LabVIEW™, a versatile platform provided by National Instruments for test, measurement and control applications. It may be noted that LabVIEW™ has provided only one EA based optimization technique which...
Cuckoo search algorithm (CSA) and Ant Lion optimization (ALO) algorithm have been explored in this work to optimize the gains of Fractional Order Fuzzy Sliding Mode Proportional Derivative Controller (FOFSMCPD). The controller has been applied to control a highly nonlinear and coupled multi-input multi-output system, i.e. a two link planar rigid robotic manipulator. In present case, the optimization...
Metaheuristic or nature inspired optimization have evolved over time towards development of a general purpose optimizer. In this paper, a novel nature inspired algorithm, based on hunting mechanism of antlions, Ant Lion Optimizer toolkit is developed in LabVIEWTM environment. This paper provides an orderly procedure for development of toolkit including random walk of ants, building of traps, catching...
Quality of Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal is very important for patient health diagnostics. ECG consists of frequencies ranging from 0.01 – 300Hz, while being a very small magnitude signal. ECG usually gets corrupted by the 50Hz power line interference (PLI). Thus, filtering out the PLI is a necessary task for the right diagnostics. In this work a second order efficient digital infinite impulse response...
This article deals with the speed control of DC motor using a Fractional Order Proportional Integral (FOPI) controller. In this paper, the Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (PSO) is implemented to optimally tune the controller gains of the FOPI controller for setpoint tracking and disturbance rejection where the optimization performance index is taken as Integral Time Weighted Absolute Error (ITAE)...
Meta-heuristic optimization algorithms are very useful tool for obtaining an optimal solution of engineering optimization problems. Bat Algorithm (BA) is one of the recent meta-heuristic algorithms. It has been claimed to be superior to its counter parts. On the other hand LabVIEW™ is a versatile software tool being utilized for measurement and control applications in various engineering domains worldwide...
In this paper a Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) Toolkit developed in LabVIEW™ environment, has been presented. Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) is inspired by Grey wolves (Canis lupus). The GWO algorithm, in nature, mimics the leadership hierarchy, and the hunting mechanism of grey wolves. LabVIEW™ is a versatile tool for measurement and control applications and it is very popular among the industries. As Differential...
In this paper a Backtracking Search Optimization Algorithm (BSA) toolkit has been developed in the LabVIEW™ environment. LabVIEW™ provides a graphical programming environment to design measurement and control applications. The development of BSA toolkit was motivated by the fact that only Differential Evolution (DE) toolkit was provided in LabVIEW™. Thus to design BSA toolkit, several modular virtual...
