Fuzzy-Rough Sets Assisted Attribute Selection

TL;DR: This paper investigates a novel approach based on fuzzy-rough sets, fuzzy rough feature selection (FRFS), that addresses problems and retains dataset semantics and is applied to two challenging domains where a feature reducing step is important; namely, web content classification and complex systems monitoring.

Power load forecasting using support vector machine and ant colony optimization

TL;DR: A new feature selection mechanism based on ant colony optimization is proposed in an attempt to combat the aforemention difficulties and denotes that the SVM-learning system has advantage when the information preprocessing is based on data mining technology.

Object segmentation using ant colony optimization algorithm and fuzzy entropy

TL;DR: The experiment results show that the implementation of the proposed fuzzy entropy method incorporating with the ACO provides improved search performance and requires significantly reduced computations, making it suitable for real-time vision applications, such as automatic target recognition (ATR).

Ant system: optimization by a colony of cooperating agents

TL;DR: It is shown how the ant system (AS) can be applied to other optimization problems like the asymmetric traveling salesman, the quadratic assignment and the job-shop scheduling, and the salient characteristics-global data structure revision, distributed communication and probabilistic transitions of the AS.
