Performance assessment and exhaustive listing of 500+ nature-inspired metaheuristic algorithms by Zhongqiang Ma (13765801)

“…It should be noted that, except EBCM, the other 10 new algorithms are inferior to the 4 state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of convergence speed and global search ability on CEC 2017 functions. …”

An efficient failure-resilient mutual exclusion algorithm for distributed systems leveraging a novel zero-message overlay structure by Mouna Rabhi (17086969)

“…<p>In this paper, we provide a novel failure-resilient token-based mutual exclusion (ME) algorithm for distributed systems. Like a few other solutions in the literature, the proposed solution leverages a logical tree as its underlying topology. …”

Simultaneous analysis of frequency and voltage control of the interconnected hybrid power system in presence of FACTS devices and demand response scheme by Sudhanshu Ranjan (17151115)

“…The speculated result of the IHPS is presented and analyzed considering real and reactive power as the function of both voltage and frequency. 9The proposed IHPS under investigation has been mathematically modeled for direct coupling like active power–frequency and reactive power–voltage relationships and cross coupling like active power–voltage and reactive power–frequency​ relationships. …”

Adaptive cooperative control of nonlinear multi-agent systems with uncertain time-varying control directions and dead-zone nonlinearity by Maryam Shahriari-kahkeshi (17269051)

“…In this paper, a Nussbaum function is used to deal with the unknown time-varying control directions problem and a disturbance-like term in the dead-zone description is approximated by an adaptive TSK-type fuzzy system. …”

IMPROVING BER PERFORMANCE OF LDPC CODES BASED ON INTERMEDIATE DECODING RESULTS by Alghonaim, Esa

“…The behavior of the BP algorithm is first investigated as a function of number of decoder iterations, and it is shown that typical uncorrected error patterns can be classified into 3 categories: oscillating, nearly-constant, or random-like, with a predominance of oscillating patterns at high Signal-to-Noise (SNR) values. …”
