    This chapter presents an improved method for constrained optimisation of biochemical systems production. The aim of the proposed method is to maximise its production and, at the same time, to minimise the total amount of chemical concentrations involved in producing the best production. The proposed method models biochemical systems with ordinary differential equations. The optimisation process became complex for the large size of biochemical systems that contain many chemicals. In addition, several constraints as the steady-state constraint and the constraint of chemical concentrations also contributed to the computational complexity and difficulty in the optimisation process. This chapter considers the biochemical systems as a nonlinear equations system. To solve the nonlinear equations system, the Newton method was applied. Then, both genetic algorithm and cooperative co-evolutionary algorithm were applied to fine-tune the components in the biochemical systems to maximise the production and minimise the total amount of chemical concentrations involved. Two biochemical systems were used, namely the ethanol production in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae pathway and the tryptophan production in the Escherichia coli pathway. In evaluating the performance of the proposed method, several comparisons with other works were performed, and the proposed method demonstrated its effectiveness in maximising the production and minimising the total amount of chemical concentrations involved

    Recently, hybrid algorithms have received considerable attention from a number of researchers. This paper presents a hybrid of the multiobjective evolutionary algorithm to gain a better accuracy of the fi nal solutions.The aim of using the hybrid algorithm is to improve the multiobjective evolutionary algorithm performance in terms of the enhancement of all the individuals in the population and increase the quality of the Pareto optimal solutions.The multiobjective evolutionary algorithm used in this study is a nondominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (NSGA-II) together with its hybrid, the backpropagation algorithm (BP), which is used as a local search algorithm to optimize the accuracy and complexity of the three-term backpropagation (TBP) network. The outcome positively demonstrates that the hybrid algorithm is able to improve the classification performance with a smaller number of hidden nodes and is effective in multiclass classifi cation problems.Furthermore, the results indicate that the proposed hybrid method is a potentially useful classifi er for enhancing the classification process ability when compared with the multiobjective genetic algorithm based on the TBP network (MOGATBP) and certain other methods found in the literature

    The role of intelligence techniques is becoming more significant in detecting and diagnosis of medical data. However, the performance of such methods is based on the algorithms or technique. In this paper, we develop an intelligent technique using multiobjective evolutionary method hybrid with a local search approach to enhance the backpropagation neural network. First, we enhance the famous multiobjective evolutionary algorithms, which is a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II). Then, we hybrid the enhanced algorithm with the local search strategy to ensures the acceleration of the convergence speed to the non-dominated front. In addition, such hybridization get the solutions achieved are well spread over it. As a result of using a local search method the quality of the Pareto optimal solutions are increased and all individuals in the population are enhanced. The key notion of the proposed algorithm was to  show a new technique to settle automaticly artificial neural network design problem. The empirical results generated by the proposed intelligent technique evaluated by applying to the breast cancer dataset and emphasize the capability of the proposed algorithm to improve the results. The network size and accuracy results of the proposed method are better than the previous methods. Therefore, the method is then capable of finding a proper number of hidden neurons and error rates of the BP algorithm

    Local Search Based Enhanced Multi-objective Genetic Algorithm of Training Backpropagation Neural Network for Breast Cancer Diagnosis

    Recently, several evolutionary algorithms have been proposed on the basis of preference in literature. Most of multi-objective evolutionary algorithms used NSGA-II due to a good performance in comparison with other multi-objective evolutionary algorithms. Our research is focused on enhancement of a well-known evolutionary algorithm NSGA-II by combining a local search method for solving Breast cancer classification problem based on Backpropagation neural network. The use of local search within the enhanced NSGA II operating can accelerate the convergence speed towards the non-dominated front and ensures the solutions attained are well spread over it. The proposed hybrid method has been experimentally evaluated by applying to the Breast cancer classification problem. It has been experimentally shown that the combination of the local search method has a positive impact to the final solution and thus increased the classification accuracy of the results

    JQPro : Join query processing in a distributed system for big RDF data using the hash-merge join technique

    Get PDF
    In the last decade, the volume of semantic data has increased exponentially, with the number of Resource Description Framework (RDF) datasets exceeding trillions of triples in RDF repositories. Hence, the size of RDF datasets continues to grow. However, with the increasing number of RDF triples, complex multiple RDF queries are becoming a significant demand. Sometimes, such complex queries produce many common sub-expressions in a single query or over multiple queries running as a batch. In addition, it is also difficult to minimize the number of RDF queries and processing time for a large amount of related data in a typical distributed environment encounter. To address this complication, we introduce a join query processing model for big RDF data, called JQPro. By adopting a MapReduce framework in JQPro, we developed three new algorithms, which are hash-join, sort-merge, and enhanced MapReduce-join for join query processing of RDF data. Based on an experiment conducted, the result showed that the JQPro model outperformed the two popular algorithms, gStore and RDF-3X, with respect to the average execution time. Furthermore, the JQPro model was also tested against RDF-3X, RDFox, and PARJs using the LUBM benchmark. The result showed that the JQPro model had better performance in comparison with the other models. In conclusion, the findings showed that JQPro achieved improved performance with 87.77% in terms of execution time. Hence, in comparison with the selected models, JQPro performs better
