Prediction of seismic slope stability through combination of particle swarm optimization and neural network

TL;DR: It was found that the PSO–ANN technique can predict FOS with higher performance capacities compared to ANN and R2 values of testing datasets equal to 0.915 and 0.986 suggest the superiority of thePSO– ANN technique.

Ground vibration prediction in quarry blasting through an artificial neural network optimized by imperialist competitive algorithm

TL;DR: In this article, a hybrid artificial neural network (ANN) optimized by the imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA) was proposed to predict peak particle velocity (PPV) resulting from quarry blasting.

Feasibility of PSO-ANN model for predicting surface settlement caused by tunneling

TL;DR: The results indicate that the proposed PSO-ANN model is able to predict MSS with a higher degree of accuracy in comparison with the ANN results, and the results of sensitivity analysis show that the horizontal to vertical stress ratio has slightly higher effect of MSS compared to other model inputs.

Prediction of the unconfined compressive strength of soft rocks: a PSO-based ANN approach

TL;DR: The high performance indices of the proposed model highlight the superiority of the PSO-based ANN model for UCS prediction, which is widely accepted that optimization algorithms such as particle swarm optimization can improve ANN performance.

An adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system for predicting unconfined compressive strength and Young’s modulus: a study on Main Range granite

TL;DR: This study aims to present two predictive models of UCS and E for granite using an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and found that the ANFIS predictive model of UCS, with R2, RMSE and VAF equal to 0.2, outperforms the MRA and ANN models.

Particle swarm optimization

TL;DR: A concept for the optimization of nonlinear functions using particle swarm methodology is introduced, and the evolution of several paradigms is outlined, and an implementation of one of the paradigm is discussed.

A logical calculus of the ideas immanent in nervous activity

TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that many particular choices among possible neurophysiological assumptions are equivalent, in the sense that for every net behaving under one assumption, there exists another net which behaves under another and gives the same results, although perhaps not in the same time.

A modified particle swarm optimizer

TL;DR: A new parameter, called inertia weight, is introduced into the original particle swarm optimizer, which resembles a school of flying birds since it adjusts its flying according to its own flying experience and its companions' flying experience.

The particle swarm - explosion, stability, and convergence in a multidimensional complex space

TL;DR: This paper analyzes a particle's trajectory as it moves in discrete time, then progresses to the view of it in continuous time, leading to a generalized model of the algorithm, containing a set of coefficients to control the system's convergence tendencies.
