This paper is to employ liquid lens elements to design a lens with zoom function by using the genetic algorithm (GA) optimization. The liquid lens elements used in the proposal can apply voltage adjustment to generate the electrical field that induces the liquid with electric conductivity to vary the surface curvature between two different kinds of liquids. According to the voltage level, the liquid lens element makes the discrete variation of the curvature and thickness realize the zoom function without moving the lens groups so that the overall length can be reduced. However, it is difficult to design the zoom lens under the discrete variation of the curvature and thickness in the liquid lens elements and the mechanical space that is constantly limited. The GA offers a flexible way for lens optimization. We regarded the spot size as the fitness function to look for the optimum curvatures, thickness, and the corresponding statuses of liquid lens elements for the zoom lens. As a result, the zoom lens with constant space can be realized by running the selection, crossover, and mutation operation in the GA optimization.

In order to improve the reliability of cracks in ceramics test, this paper puts forward a target adaptive segmentation method used by genetic algorithm and maximum-variance algorithm in all classes. This proposed method makes some appropriate improvements about crossover and mutation in genetic algorithm. Besides, the fitness function draws merits of maximum-variance algorithm in all classes and turns the best value in image segmentation into corresponding optimization problem. The simulation results of experiment shows the method proposed shortens the searching time and strengthens anti-noise property during image segmentation and improves recognition rate of cracks in ceramics.

This paper proposes a genetic algorithm to generate and optimize assembly sequences for compliant assemblies. An assembly modeling is presented to describe the geometry of the assembly, which includes three sets of parts, relationships and joints among the parts. Based on the assembly modeling, an assembly sequence is denoted as an individual, which is assigned an evaluation function that consists of the fitness and constraint functions. The fitness function is used to evaluate feasible sequences; in addition, the constraint function is employed to evolve unfeasible sequences. The genetic algorithm starts with a randomly initial population of chromosomes, evolves new populations by using reproduction, crossover and mutation operations, and terminates until acceptable sequences output. Finally an auto-body side assembly is used to illustrate the algorithm of assembly sequence generation and optimization.

For this purpose, the immune algorithm was introduced to the classical genetic algorithm, the fitness function was designed, and the crossover and mutation probabilities were adjusted, thus creating the adaptive immune genetic algorithm (IIGA). The new algorithm was described in details and applied in an actual case. Through the comparison between the IIGA, IGA and apriori algorithms, the author concluded that the IIGA not only shortened the mining time, but also ensured the operation accuracy. The research findings are of great importance to the association rules mining in various fields.</span>

Flatness is one fundamental element of geometric forms, and the flatness evaluation is particularly important for ensuring the quality of industrial products. This paper presents a new flatness evaluation in the view of the minimum zone evaluation - rotation method based on genetic algorithm. This method determines the minimum zone through rotating measurement points in three dimensions coordinate. The points are firstly rotated about coordinate axes. Then they are projected in one axis, and the smallest projection length is the flatness value. The rotation angles are optimized by genetic algorithm to improve search efficiency. An exponential fitness function and the rotation angles range is designed on the basis of flatness characteristics. An adaptive mode of crossover and mutation probability is used to avoid local optimum. The results show this method can search the minimum zone and converge rapidly.

In this article it is studied the application of a genetic algorithm in the problem of variable selection for multiple linear regression, minimizing the least squares criterion. The algorithm is based on a chromosomic representation of variables that are considered in the least squares model. A binary chromosome indicates the presence (1) or absence (0) of a variable in the model. The fitness function is based on the adjusted square R, proportional to the fitness for chromosome selection in a roulette wheel model selection. Usual genetic operators, such as crossover and mutation are implemented. Comparisons are performed with benchmark data sets, obtaining satisfying and promising results.

Abstract Genetic algorithms are search algorithms based on the mechanics of natural selection and natural genetics. In this paper, we investigate a novel approach to the binary coded testing process based on a genetic algorithm. This paper consists of two parts. Thefirst part addresses the problem in the traditional way of using the decimal number system to define the fitness function to study the variations of counts and the variations of probability against the fitness functions. Second, the initialpopulationsare defined using binary coded digits (genes). For the evaluation of the high fitness function values,three genetic operators, namely, reproduction, crossover and mutation, are randomly used. The results show the importance of the genetic operator, mutation, which yields the peak values for the fitness function based on binary coded numbers performed in a new way.

Genetic algorithms are used to parameter identification of the model of oscillatory processes in complicated motion transmission of electric drives containing long elastic shafts as systems of distributed mechanical parameters. Shaft equations are generated on the basis of a modified Hamilton–Ostrogradski principle, which serves as the foundation to analyse the lumped parameter system and distributed parameter system. They serve to compute basic functions of analytical mechanics of velocity continuum and rotational angles of shaft elements. It is demonstrated that the application of the distributed parameter method to multi-mass rotational systems, that contain long elastic elements and complicated control systems, is not always possible. The genetic algorithm is applied to determine the coefficients of approximation the system of Rotational Transmission with Elastic Shaft by equivalent differential equations. The fitness function is determined as least-square error. The obtained results confirm that application of the genetic algorithms allow one to replace the use of a complicated distributed parameter model of mechanical system by a considerably simpler model, and to eliminate sophisticated calculation procedures and identification of boundary conditions for wave motion equations of long elastic elements.
