Abstract One of the responsibilities of a directional driller (DD) is the computation of the current bit position given the last survey station measurement, and with that information calculate the path back to plan if directional correction is needed. Having only a few minutes during a drilling connection to perform these calculations, the DD is limited to compute only a handful of possible paths that will be presented to the Drilling Engineer/Company Man. With this information, the Company Man will decide which path to follow. The present work aims to develop a computer algorithm that replicates the field knowledge of DDs but can compute hundreds of paths in less than one minute. In addition, since the objective of the trajectory correction may differ, the algorithm also can optimize for one of three goals: maximum rate of penetration (ROP), minimum tortuosity in the path, or maximum footage in the drilling target window. The paper presents examples of four different path recommendations in the lateral portion of a horizontal well. The results show the optimum recommended paths for the same position for a specific optimization goal. Finally, a comparison between the running time and number of paths computed is presented. All results were obtained during the validation tests of the algorithm.

At present, heart disease not only has a significant impact on the quality of human life but also poses a greater impact on people’s health. Therefore, it is very important to be able to diagnose heart disease as early as possible and give corresponding treatment. Heart image segmentation is the primary operation of intelligent heart disease diagnosis. The quality of segmentation directly determines the effect of intelligent diagnosis. Because the running time of image segmentation is often longer, coupled with the characteristics of cardiac MR imaging technology and the structural characteristics of the cardiac target itself, the rapid segmentation of cardiac MRI images still has challenges. Aiming at the long running time of traditional methods and low segmentation accuracy, a medical image segmentation (MIS) method based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) optimized support vector machine (SVM) is proposed, referred to as PSO-SVM. First, the current iteration number and population number in PSO are added to the control strategy of inertial weight λ to improve the performance of PSO inertial weight λ. Find the optimal penalty coefficient C and γ in the gaussian kernel function by PSO. Then use the SVM method to establish the best classification model and test the data. Compared with traditional methods, this method not only shortens the running time, but also improves the segmentation accuracy. At the same time, comparing the influence of traditional inertial weights on segmentation results, the improved method reduces the average convergence algebra and shortens the optimization time.

In this paper, a new particle swarm optimization particle filter (NPSO-PF) algorithm is proposed, which is called particle cluster optimization particle filter algorithm with mutation operator, and is used for real-time filtering and noise reduction of nonlinear vibration signals. Because of its introduction of mutation operator, this algorithm overcomes the problem where by particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm easily falls into local optimal value, with a low calculation accuracy. At the same time, the distribution and diversity of particles in the sampling process are improved through the mutation operation. The defect of particle filter (PF) algorithm where the particles are poor and the utilization rate is not high is also solved. The mutation control function makes the particle set optimization process happen in the early and late stages, and improves the convergence speed of the particle set, which greatly reduces the running time of the whole algorithm. Simulation experiments show that compared with PF and PSO-PF algorithms, the proposed NPSO-PF algorithm has lower root mean square error, shorter running time, higher signal-to-noise ratio and more stable filtering performance. It is proved that the algorithm is suitable for real-time filtering and noise reduction processing of nonlinear signals.

The smart teaching mode overcomes the shortcomings of traditional teaching online and offline, but there are certain deficiencies in the real-time feature extraction of teachers and students. In view of this, this study uses the particle swarm image recognition and deep learning technology to process the intelligent classroom video teaching image and extracts the classroom task features in real time and sends them to the teacher. In order to overcome the shortcomings of the premature convergence of the standard particle swarm optimization algorithm, an improved strategy for multiple particle swarm optimization algorithms is proposed. In order to improve the premature problem in the search performance algorithm of PSO algorithm, this paper combines the algorithm with the useful attributes of other algorithms to improve the particle diversity in the algorithm, enhance the global search ability of the particle, and achieve effective feature extraction. The research indicates that the method proposed in this paper has certain practical effects and can provide theoretical reference for subsequent related research.

Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) is a reliable control system for controlling nonlinear systems, but to obtain optimal fuzzy logic control results, optimal Membership Function parameters are needed. Therefore in this paper Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is used as a fast and accurate optimization method to determine Membership Function parameters. The optimal control system simulation is carried out on the automatic steering system of the vehicle model and the results obtained are the vehicle's lateral motion error can be minimized so that the movement of the vehicle can always be maintained on the expected trajectory
