Hybrid Competitive Learning Method Using the Fireworks Algorithm and Artificial Neural Networks (SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology)
by Fevrier Valdez Juan Barraza Patricia MelinThis book focuses on the fields of neural networks, swarm optimization algorithms, clustering and fuzzy logic. This book describes a hybrid method with three different techniques of intelligence computation: neural networks, optimization algorithms and fuzzy logic. Within the neural network techniques, competitive neural networks (CNNs) are used, for the optimization algorithms technique, we used the fireworks algorithm (FWA), and in the area of fuzzy logic, the Type-1 Fuzzy Inference Systems (T1FIS) and the Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Inference Systems (IT2FIS) were used, with their variants of Mamdani and Sugeno type, respectively. FWA was adapted for data clustering with the goal to help of competitive neural network to find the optimal number of neurons. It is important to mention that two variants were applied to the FWA: dynamically adjust of parameters with Type-1 Fuzzy Logic (FFWA) as the first one and Interval Type-2 (F2FWA) as the second one. Subsequently, based on the outputs of the CNN and with the goal of classification data, we designed Type-1 and Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Inference Systems of Mamdani and Sugeno type. This book is intended to be a reference for scientists and engineers interested in applying a different metaheuristic or an artificial neural network in order to solve optimization and applied fuzzy logic techniques for solving problems in clustering and classification data. This book is also used as a reference for graduate courses like the following: soft computing, swarm optimization algorithms, clustering data, fuzzy classify and similar ones. We consider that this book can also be used to get novel ideas for new lines of research, new techniques of optimization or to continue the lines of the research proposed by the authors of the book.

Hybrid Encryption Algorithms over Wireless Communication Channels
by Mai Helmy ShaheenThis book presents novel hybrid encryption algorithms that possess many different characteristics. In particular, “Hybrid Encryption Algorithms over Wireless Communication Channels”, examines encrypted image and video data for the purpose of secure wireless communications. A study of two different families of encryption schemes are introduced: namely, permutation-based and diffusion-based schemes. The objective of the book is to help the reader selecting the best suited scheme for the transmission of encrypted images and videos over wireless communications channels, with the aid of encryption and decryption quality metrics. This is achieved by applying number-theory based encryption algorithms, such as chaotic theory with different modes of operations, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), and the RC6 in a pre-processing step in order to achieve the required permutation and diffusion. The Rubik’s cube is used afterwards in order to maximize the number of permutations. Transmission of images and videos is vital in today’s communications systems. Hence, an effective encryption and modulation schemes are a must. The author adopts Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), as the multicarrier transmission choice for wideband communications. For completeness, the author addresses the sensitivity of the encrypted data to the wireless channel impairments, and the effect of channel equalization on the received images and videos quality. Complete simulation experiments with MATLAB® codes are included. The book will help the reader obtain the required understanding for selecting the suitable encryption method that best fulfills the application requirements.

The Hybrid Governance of Urban Food Movements: Learning from Toronto and Brussels (Urban Agriculture)
by Alessandra ManganelliUndertaking a journey into the “hybrid governance” of urban food movements, this book offers an original and nuanced analysis of the urban milieu as epicentre of food activism and food governance. Through examples of food movements in the city-regions of Toronto and Brussels, the author highlights the critical governance tensions urban food initiatives experience as they develop in diverse ways and seek to change food systems and their related socio-political conditions. The author investigates urban food movements as they negotiate access to land in urban areas, build resilient food network organisations, and develop supportive policies and empowering institutions for urban food governance. Through the analysis of these tensions, the book effectively puts real-life challenges of urban food movements in the spotlight—challenges that are increasingly visible and pertinent in today’s converging climate, socio-political, and health crises. The author offers suggestions to improve alternative food practices and, ultimately, to design promising pathways to instigate food system change.
The Hybrid High-Order Method for Polytopal Meshes: Design, Analysis, and Applications (MS&A #19)
by Jérôme Droniou Daniele Antonio Di PietroThis monograph provides an introduction to the design and analysis of Hybrid High-Order methods for diffusive problems, along with a panel of applications to advanced models in computational mechanics. Hybrid High-Order methods are new-generation numerical methods for partial differential equations with features that set them apart from traditional ones. These include: the support of polytopal meshes, including non-star-shaped elements and hanging nodes; the possibility of having arbitrary approximation orders in any space dimension; an enhanced compliance with the physics; and a reduced computational cost thanks to compact stencil and static condensation. The first part of the monograph lays the foundations of the method, considering linear scalar second-order models, including scalar diffusion – possibly heterogeneous and anisotropic – and diffusion-advection-reaction. The second part addresses applications to more complex models from the engineering sciences: non-linear Leray-Lions problems, elasticity, and incompressible fluid flows. This book is primarily intended for graduate students and researchers in applied mathematics and numerical analysis, who will find here valuable analysis tools of general scope.
