In this paper, with consideration to function of the equivalent series resistance (ESR), optimal capacitance is calculated. The induction heating resonance capacitor is achieved using Smart Bacteria Foraging Algorithm (SBFA) under voltage and frequency constraints for minimizing cost function that is including: increasing the output power and efficiency of an induction heater, while decreasing the power loss of the capacitor. The proposed algorithm mimics chemotactic behavior of  E.Coli bacteria to optimize parameters. The proposed algorithm enjoys individual and social intelligence, so that it can search influx ways among hidden layers of the problem.  Based on the equivalent circuit model of an induction heating system, the output power, and the capacitor losses are calculated. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by computer simulations, also improving the obtained results using SBFA are compared to classical bacteria foraging algorithm BFA.  IS - 4 PB - OICC Press KW - Cloud computing, DDoS attacks, Machine Learning, deep learning techniques, . , EN -
