Balance (CMB) model has been extensively used in order to determine source contribution for particulate matters (size diameters less than 10 ?m and 2.5 ?m) in the air quality analysis. A comparison of the source contribution estimated from the three CMB models (CMB 8.2, CMB-fmincon and CMB-GA) have been carried out through optimization techniques such as ?fmincon? (CMB-fmincon) and genetic algorithm (CMB-GA) using MATLAB. The proposed approach has been validated using San Joaquin Valley Air Quality Study (SJVAQS) California Fresno and Bakersfield PM10 and PM2.5 followed with Oregon PM10 data. The source contribution estimated from CMB-GA was better in source interpretation in comparison with CMB8.2 and CMB-fmincon. The performance accuracy of three CMB approaches were validated using R-square, reduced chi-square and percentage mass tests. The R-square (0.90, 0.67 and 0.81, 0.83), Chi-square (0.36, 0.66 and 0.65, 0.43) and percentage mass (67.36 %, 55.03 % and 94.24 %, 74.85 %) of CMB-GA showed high correlation for PM10, PM2.5 Fresno and Bakersfield data respectively. To make a complete decision, the proposed methodology has been bench marked with Portland, Oregon PM10 data with best fit with R2 (0.99), Chi-square (1.6) and percentage mass (94.4 %) from CMB-GA. Therefore, the study revealed that CMB with genetic algorithm optimization method holds better stability in determining the source contributions.

 Acute Myeloid Leukimia (AML) is a type of cancer which attacks white blood cells from myeloid. AML subtypes M1, M2, and M3 are affected by the same type of cells called myeloblasts, so it needs more detailed analysis to classify.Momentum Backpropagation  is used to classified. In its application, optimal selection of architecture, learning rate, and momentum is still done by random trial. This is one of the disadvantage of Momentum Backpropagation. This study uses a genetic algorithm (GA) as an optimization method to get the best architecture, learning rate, and momentum of artificial neural network. Genetic algorithms are one of the optimization techniques that emulate the process of biological evolution.The dataset used in this study is numerical feature data resulting from the segmentation of white blood cell images taken from previous studies which has been done by Nurcahya Pradana Taufik Prakisya. Based on these data, an evaluation of the Momentum Backpropagation process was conducted the selection parameter in a random trial with the genetic algorithm. Furthermore, the comparison of accuracy values was carried out as an alternative to the ANN learning method that was able to provide more accurate values with the data used in this study.The results showed that training and testing with genetic algorithm optimization of ANN parameters resulted in an average memorization accuracy of 83.38% and validation accuracy of 94.3%. Whereas in other ways, training and testing with momentum backpropagation random trial resulted in an average memorization accuracy of 76.09% and validation accuracy of 88.22%.

Cancer is a major challenge for mankind. Cancer can affect various parts of the body. This deadly disease can be detected in people of all ages. However, the risk of cancer increases with increasing age. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women, and form largest cause of death for women as well. Then there are problems in the detection of breast cancer, resulting in the patient experiencing unnecessary treatment and cost. Insimilar studies, there are several methods used but there are problems due to the shape of the cancer cells are nonlinear. Neural networks can solve these problems, but neural network is weak in terms of determining the value of the parameter, so it needs to be optimized. Genetic algorithm is one of the optimization methods is good, therefore the values ​​of the parameters of the neural network will be optimized by using a genetic algorithm so as to get the best value of the parameter. Neural Network-based GA algorithm has the higher accuracy value than just using Neural Network algorithm. This is evident from the increase in value for the accuracy of the model Neural Network algorithm by 95.42% and the accuracy of algorithm-based Neural Network algorithm GA (Genetic Algorithm) of 96.85% with a difference of 1.43% accuracy. So it can be concluded that the application of Genetic Algorithm optimization techniques to improve the accuracy values on Neural Network algorithm.

Traditional Methods of optimization have failed to meet up the rapid changing world in the demand of high quality and accuracy in solution delivery. Optimization literally means looking for the best possible or most desired solution to a problem. Optimization techniques are basically classified into three groups, namely; the Traditional Method, Artificial Intelligent Method, and Hybrid Artificial Intelligent technique. In this paper, an attempt is made to review literatures on different modern optimization techniques for application in various disciplines. A general review was made on some of the modern optimization methods such as Genetic Algorithm, Ant colony method, Honey Bee optimization method, and Simulated Annealing optimization.

A control methodology based on a nonlinear control algorithm and optimization technique is presented in this paper. A controller called “the robust integral of the sign of the error” (in short, RISE) is applied to control chaotic systems. The optimum RISE controller parameters are obtained via genetic algorithm optimization techniques. RISE control methodology is implemented on two chaotic systems, namely, the Duffing-Holms and Van der Pol systems. Numerical simulations showed the good performance of the optimized RISE controller in tracking task and its ability to ensure robustness with respect to bounded external disturbances.

he problem study here is concerned with the geometrical evaluation of an isothermal Y-shaped cavity intruded into conducting solid wall with internal heat generation. The cavity acts as a sink of the heat generated into the solid. The main purpose here is to minimize the maximal excess of temperature (θmax) in the solid. Constructal Design, which is based on the objective and constraints principle, is employed to evaluate the geometries of Y-shaped cavity. Meanwhile, Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm is employed as optimization method to seek for the best shapes. To validate the SA methodology, the results obtained with SA are compared with those achieved with Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Exaustive Search (ES) in recent studies of literature. The comparison between the optimization methods (SA, GA and ES) showed that Simulated Annealing is highly effective in the search for the optimal shapes of the studied case.

Truss optimization has the goal of achieving savings in costs and material while maintaining structural characteristics. In this research a 10 bar truss was structurally optimized in Rhino 6 using genetic algorithm optimization method. Results from previous research where sizing optimization was limited to using only three different cross-sections were compared to a sizing and shape optimization model which uses only those three cross-sections. Significant savings in mass have been found when using this approach. An analysis was conducted of the necessary bill of materials for these solutions. This research indicates practical effects which optimization can achieve in truss design.

In steelmaking plant, the process times of machines change frequently and randomly for the reason of metallurgical principle. When those change happen, the plant scheduling and caster operation must respond to keep the optimal performance profile of plant. Therefore, the integration of plant scheduling and caster operation is a crucial task. This paper presents a mixed-integer programming model and a hybrid optimized algorithm for caster operation and plant scheduling, which combine the genetic algorithm optimization and CDFM process status verification. Data experiments illustrate the efficiency of our model and algorithm.
