    Industry 4.0 is the fourth generation of industry which will theoretically revolutionize manufacturing methods through the integration of machine learning and artificial intelligence approaches on the factory floor to obtain robustness and sped-up process changes. In particular, the use of the digital twin in a manufacturing environment makes it possible to test such approaches in a timely manner using a realistic 3D environment that limits incurring safety issues and danger of damage to resources. To obtain superior performance in an industry 4.0 setup, a modified version of a binary gravitational search algorithm is introduced which benefits from an exclusive or (XOR) operator and a repository to improve the exploration property of the algorithm. Mathematical analysis of the proposed optimization approach is performed which resulted in two theorems which show that the proposed modification to the velocity vector can direct particles to the best particles. The use of repository in this algorithm provides a guideline to direct the particles to the best solutions more rapidly. The proposed algorithm is evaluated on some benchmark optimization problems covering a diverse range of functions including unimodal and multimodal as well as those which suffer from multiple local minima. The proposed algorithm is compared against several existing binary optimization algorithms including existing versions of a binary gravitational search algorithm, improved binary optimization, binary particle swarm optimization, binary grey wolf optimization and binary dragonfly optimization. To show that the proposed approach is an effective method to deal with real world binary optimization problems raised in an industry 4.0 environment, it is then applied to optimize the assembly task of an industrial robot assembling an industrial calculator. The optimal movements obtained are then implemented on a real robot. Furthermore, the digital twin of a universal robot is developed, and its path planning is done in the presence of obstacles using the proposed optimization algorithm. The obtained path is then inspected by human expert and validated. It is shown that the proposed approach can effectively solve such optimization problems which arises in industry 4.0 environment

    An Analysis of a KNN Perturbation Operator: An Application to the Binarization of Continuous Metaheuristics

    Full text link
    [EN] The optimization methods and, in particular, metaheuristics must be constantly improved to reduce execution times, improve the results, and thus be able to address broader instances. In particular, addressing combinatorial optimization problems is critical in the areas of operational research and engineering. In this work, a perturbation operator is proposed which uses the k-nearest neighbors technique, and this is studied with the aim of improving the diversification and intensification properties of metaheuristic algorithms in their binary version. Random operators are designed to study the contribution of the perturbation operator. To verify the proposal, large instances of the well-known set covering problem are studied. Box plots, convergence charts, and the Wilcoxon statistical test are used to determine the operator contribution. Furthermore, a comparison is made using metaheuristic techniques that use general binarization mechanisms such as transfer functions or db-scan as binarization methods. The results obtained indicate that the KNN perturbation operator improves significantly the results.The first author was supported by the Grant CONICYT/FONDECYT/INICIACION/11180056.García, J.; Astorga, G.; Yepes, V.

    A Hybrid k-Means Cuckoo Search Algorithm Applied to the Counterfort Retaining Walls Problem

    Full text link
    [EN] The counterfort retaining wall is one of the most frequent structures used in civil engineering. In this structure, optimization of cost and CO2 emissions are important. The first is relevant in the competitiveness and efficiency of the company, the second in environmental impact. From the point of view of computational complexity, the problem is challenging due to the large number of possible combinations in the solution space. In this article, a k-means cuckoo search hybrid algorithm is proposed where the cuckoo search metaheuristic is used as an optimization mechanism in continuous spaces and the unsupervised k-means learning technique to discretize the solutions. A random operator is designed to determine the contribution of the k-means operator in the optimization process. The best values, the averages, and the interquartile ranges of the obtained distributions are compared. The hybrid algorithm was later compared to a version of harmony search that also solved the problem. The results show that the k-mean operator contributes significantly to the quality of the solutions and that our algorithm is highly competitive, surpassing the results obtained by harmony search.The first author was supported by the Grant CONICYT/FONDECYT/INICIACION/11180056, the other two authors were supported by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness, along with FEDER funding (Project: BIA2017-85098-R).García, J.; Yepes, V.; Martí Albiñana, JV.

    Q-Learnheuristics: towards data-driven balanced metaheuristics

    Get PDF
    One of the central issues that must be resolved for a metaheuristic optimization process to work well is the dilemma of the balance between exploration and exploitation. The metaheuristics (MH) that achieved this balance can be called balanced MH, where a Q-Learning (QL) integration framework was proposed for the selection of metaheuristic operators conducive to this balance, particularly the selection of binarization schemes when a continuous metaheuristic solves binary combinatorial problems. In this work the use of this framework is extended to other recent metaheuristics, demonstrating that the integration of QL in the selection of operators improves the exploration-exploitation balance. Specifically, the Whale Optimization Algorithm and the Sine-Cosine Algorithm are tested by solving the Set Covering Problem, showing statistical improvements in this balance and in the quality of the solutions

    An enhanced binary bat and Markov clustering algorithms to improve event detection for heterogeneous news text documents

    Get PDF
    Event Detection (ED) works on identifying events from various types of data. Building an ED model for news text documents greatly helps decision-makers in various disciplines in improving their strategies. However, identifying and summarizing events from such data is a non-trivial task due to the large volume of published heterogeneous news text documents. Such documents create a high-dimensional feature space that influences the overall performance of the baseline methods in ED model. To address such a problem, this research presents an enhanced ED model that includes improved methods for the crucial phases of the ED model such as Feature Selection (FS), ED, and summarization. This work focuses on the FS problem by automatically detecting events through a novel wrapper FS method based on Adapted Binary Bat Algorithm (ABBA) and Adapted Markov Clustering Algorithm (AMCL), termed ABBA-AMCL. These adaptive techniques were developed to overcome the premature convergence in BBA and fast convergence rate in MCL. Furthermore, this study proposes four summarizing methods to generate informative summaries. The enhanced ED model was tested on 10 benchmark datasets and 2 Facebook news datasets. The effectiveness of ABBA-AMCL was compared to 8 FS methods based on meta-heuristic algorithms and 6 graph-based ED methods. The empirical and statistical results proved that ABBAAMCL surpassed other methods on most datasets. The key representative features demonstrated that ABBA-AMCL method successfully detects real-world events from Facebook news datasets with 0.96 Precision and 1 Recall for dataset 11, while for dataset 12, the Precision is 1 and Recall is 0.76. To conclude, the novel ABBA-AMCL presented in this research has successfully bridged the research gap and resolved the curse of high dimensionality feature space for heterogeneous news text documents. Hence, the enhanced ED model can organize news documents into distinct events and provide policymakers with valuable information for decision making
