Here, we presen...DNA microarrays, a cornerstone in biomedicine, measure gene expression across thousands to tens of thousands of genes. Identifying the genes vital for accurate cancer classification is a key challenge. Here, we present Fs-LSA (F-score based Learning Search Algorithm), a novel gene selection algorithm designed to enhance the precision and efficiency of target gene identification from microarray data for cancer classification. This algorithm is divided into two phases: the first leverages F-score values to prioritize and select feature genes with the most significant differential expression;the second phase introduces our Learning Search Algorithm (LSA), which harnesses swarm intelligence to identify the optimal subset among the remaining genes. Inspired by human social learning, LSA integrates historical data and collective intelligence for a thorough search, with a dynamic control mechanism that balances exploration and refinement, thereby enhancing the gene selection process. We conducted a rigorous validation of Fs-LSA’s performance using eight publicly available cancer microarray expression datasets. Fs-LSA achieved accuracy, precision, sensitivity, and F1-score values of 0.9932, 0.9923, 0.9962, and 0.994, respectively. Comparative analyses with state-of-the-art algorithms revealed Fs-LSA’s superior performance in terms of simplicity and efficiency. Additionally, we validated the algorithm’s efficacy independently using glioblastoma data from GEO and TCGA databases. It was significantly superior to those of the comparison algorithms. Importantly, the driver genes identified by Fs-LSA were instrumental in developing a predictive model as an independent prognostic indicator for glioblastoma, underscoring Fs-LSA’s transformative potential in genomics and personalized medicine.展开更多

文摘Thediagnosis of Dry EyeDisease(DED),however,usually depends on clinical information and complex,high-dimensional datasets.To improve the performance of classification models,this paper proposes a Computer Aided Design(CAD)system that presents a new method for DED classification called(IAOO-PSO),which is a powerful Feature Selection technique(FS)that integrates with Opposition-Based Learning(OBL)and Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO).We improve the speed of convergence with the PSO algorithmand the exploration with the IAOO algorithm.The IAOO is demonstrated to possess superior global optimization capabilities,as validated on the IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation 2022(CEC’22)benchmark suite and compared with seven Metaheuristic(MH)algorithms.Additionally,an IAOO-PSO model based on Support Vector Machines(SVMs)classifier is proposed for FS and classification,where the IAOO-PSO is used to identify the most relevant features.This model was applied to the DED dataset comprising 20,000 cases and 26 features,achieving a high classification accuracy of 99.8%,which significantly outperforms other optimization algorithms.The experimental results demonstrate the reliability,success,and efficiency of the IAOO-PSO technique for both FS and classification in the detection of DED.

文摘When dealing with imbalanced datasets,the traditional support vectormachine(SVM)tends to produce a classification hyperplane that is biased towards the majority class,which exhibits poor robustness.This paper proposes a high-performance classification algorithm specifically designed for imbalanced datasets.The proposed method first uses a biased second-order cone programming support vectormachine(B-SOCP-SVM)to identify the support vectors(SVs)and non-support vectors(NSVs)in the imbalanced data.Then,it applies the synthetic minority over-sampling technique(SV-SMOTE)to oversample the support vectors of the minority class and uses the random under-sampling technique(NSV-RUS)multiple times to undersample the non-support vectors of the majority class.Combining the above-obtained minority class data set withmultiple majority class datasets can obtainmultiple new balanced data sets.Finally,SOCP-SVM is used to classify each data set,and the final result is obtained through the integrated algorithm.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method performs excellently on imbalanced datasets.

文摘DNA microarrays, a cornerstone in biomedicine, measure gene expression across thousands to tens of thousands of genes. Identifying the genes vital for accurate cancer classification is a key challenge. Here, we present Fs-LSA (F-score based Learning Search Algorithm), a novel gene selection algorithm designed to enhance the precision and efficiency of target gene identification from microarray data for cancer classification. This algorithm is divided into two phases: the first leverages F-score values to prioritize and select feature genes with the most significant differential expression;the second phase introduces our Learning Search Algorithm (LSA), which harnesses swarm intelligence to identify the optimal subset among the remaining genes. Inspired by human social learning, LSA integrates historical data and collective intelligence for a thorough search, with a dynamic control mechanism that balances exploration and refinement, thereby enhancing the gene selection process. We conducted a rigorous validation of Fs-LSA’s performance using eight publicly available cancer microarray expression datasets. Fs-LSA achieved accuracy, precision, sensitivity, and F1-score values of 0.9932, 0.9923, 0.9962, and 0.994, respectively. Comparative analyses with state-of-the-art algorithms revealed Fs-LSA’s superior performance in terms of simplicity and efficiency. Additionally, we validated the algorithm’s efficacy independently using glioblastoma data from GEO and TCGA databases. It was significantly superior to those of the comparison algorithms. Importantly, the driver genes identified by Fs-LSA were instrumental in developing a predictive model as an independent prognostic indicator for glioblastoma, underscoring Fs-LSA’s transformative potential in genomics and personalized medicine.

文摘To solve the problems of deformation,micro-cracks,and residual tensile stress in laser cladding coatings,the technique of laser cladding with Fe-based memory alloy can be considered.However,the process of in-situ synthesis of Fe-based memory alloy coatings is extremely complex.At present,there is no clear guidance scheme for its preparation process,which limits its promotion and application to some extent.Therefore,in this study,response surface methodology(RSM)was used to model the response surface between the target values and the cladding process parameters.The NSGA-2 algorithm was employed to optimize the process parameters.The results indicate that the composite optimization method consisting of RSM and the NSGA-2 algorithm can establish a more accurate model,with an error of less than 4.5%between the predicted and actual values.Based on this established model,the optimal scheme for process parameters corresponding to different target results can be rapidly obtained.The prepared coating exhibits a uniform structure,with no defects such as pores,cracks,and deformation.The surface roughness and microhardness of the coating are enhanced,the shaping quality of the coating is effectively improved,and the electrochemical corrosion performance of the coating in 3.5%NaCl solution is obviously better than that of the substrate,providing an important guide for engineering applications.
文摘Optimization is the key to obtaining efficient utilization of resources in structural design.Due to the complex nature of truss systems,this study presents a method based on metaheuristic modelling that minimises structural weight under stress and frequency constraints.Two new algorithms,the Red Kite Optimization Algorithm(ROA)and Secretary Bird Optimization Algorithm(SBOA),are utilized on five benchmark trusses with 10,18,37,72,and 200-bar trusses.Both algorithms are evaluated against benchmarks in the literature.The results indicate that SBOA always reaches a lighter optimal.Designs with reducing structural weight ranging from 0.02%to 0.15%compared to ROA,and up to 6%–8%as compared to conventional algorithms.In addition,SBOA can achieve 15%–20%faster convergence speed and 10%–18%reduction in computational time with a smaller standard deviation over independent runs,which demonstrates its robustness and reliability.It is indicated that the adaptive exploration mechanism of SBOA,especially its Levy flight–based search strategy,can obviously improve optimization performance for low-and high-dimensional trusses.The research has implications in the context of promoting bio-inspired optimization techniques by demonstrating the viability of SBOA,a reliable model for large-scale structural design that provides significant enhancements in performance and convergence behavior.

文摘In recent years,feature selection(FS)optimization of high-dimensional gene expression data has become one of the most promising approaches for cancer prediction and classification.This work reviews FS and classification methods that utilize evolutionary algorithms(EAs)for gene expression profiles in cancer or medical applications based on research motivations,challenges,and recommendations.Relevant studies were retrieved from four major academic databases-IEEE,Scopus,Springer,and ScienceDirect-using the keywords‘cancer classification’,‘optimization’,‘FS’,and‘gene expression profile’.A total of 67 papers were finally selected with key advancements identified as follows:(1)The majority of papers(44.8%)focused on developing algorithms and models for FS and classification.(2)The second category encompassed studies on biomarker identification by EAs,including 20 papers(30%).(3)The third category comprised works that applied FS to cancer data for decision support system purposes,addressing high-dimensional data and the formulation of chromosome length.These studies accounted for 12%of the total number of studies.(4)The remaining three papers(4.5%)were reviews and surveys focusing on models and developments in prediction and classification optimization for cancer classification under current technical conditions.This review highlights the importance of optimizing FS in EAs to manage high-dimensional data effectively.Despite recent advancements,significant limitations remain:the dynamic formulation of chromosome length remains an underexplored area.Thus,further research is needed on dynamic-length chromosome techniques for more sophisticated biomarker gene selection techniques.The findings suggest that further advancements in dynamic chromosome length formulations and adaptive algorithms could enhance cancer classification accuracy and efficiency.

文摘This paper introduces a novel nature-inspired metaheuristic algorithm called the Gekko japonicus algorithm.The algo-rithm draws inspiration mainly from the predation strategies and survival behaviors of the Gekko japonicus.The math-ematical model is developed by simulating various biological behaviors of the Gekko japonicus,such as hybrid loco-motion patterns,directional olfactory guidance,implicit group advantage tendencies,and the tail autotomy mechanism.By integrating multi-stage mutual constraints and dynamically adjusting parameters,GJA maintains an optimal balance between global exploration and local exploitation,thereby effectively solving complex optimization problems.To assess the performance of GJA,comparative analyses were performed against fourteen state-of-the-art metaheuristic algorithms using the CEC2017 and CEC2022 benchmark test sets.Additionally,a Friedman test was performed on the experimen-tal results to assess the statistical significance of differences between various algorithms.And GJA was evaluated using multiple qualitative indicators,further confirming its superiority in exploration and exploitation.Finally,GJA was utilized to solve four engineering optimization problems and further implemented in robotic path planning to verify its practical applicability.Experimental results indicate that,compared to other high-performance algorithms,GJA demonstrates excep-tional performance as a powerful optimization algorithm in complex optimization problems.We make the code publicly available at:https://github.com/zhy1109/Gekko-japonicusalgorithm.

文摘The Intrusion Detection System(IDS)is a security mechanism developed to observe network traffic and recognize suspicious or malicious activities.Clustering algorithms are often incorporated into IDS;however,conventional clustering-based methods face notable drawbacks,including poor scalability in handling high-dimensional datasets and a strong dependence of outcomes on initial conditions.To overcome the performance limitations of existing methods,this study proposes a novel quantum-inspired clustering algorithm that relies on a similarity coefficient-based quantum genetic algorithm(SC-QGA)and an improved quantum artificial bee colony algorithm hybrid K-means(IQABC-K).First,the SC-QGA algorithmis constructed based on quantum computing and integrates similarity coefficient theory to strengthen genetic diversity and feature extraction capabilities.For the subsequent clustering phase,the process based on the IQABC-K algorithm is enhanced with the core improvement of adaptive rotation gate and movement exploitation strategies to balance the exploration capabilities of global search and the exploitation capabilities of local search.Simultaneously,the acceleration of convergence toward the global optimum and a reduction in computational complexity are facilitated by means of the global optimum bootstrap strategy and a linear population reduction strategy.Through experimental evaluation with multiple algorithms and diverse performance metrics,the proposed algorithm confirms reliable accuracy on three datasets:KDD CUP99,NSL_KDD,and UNSW_NB15,achieving accuracy of 98.57%,98.81%,and 98.32%,respectively.These results affirm its potential as an effective solution for practical clustering applications.

文摘In this paper,we propose a new privacy-aware transmission scheduling algorithm for 6G ad hoc networks.This system enables end nodes to select the optimum time and scheme to transmit private data safely.In 6G dynamic heterogeneous infrastructures,unstable links and non-uniform hardware capabilities create critical issues regarding security and privacy.Traditional protocols are often too computationally heavy to allow 6G services to achieve their expected Quality-of-Service(QoS).As the transport network is built of ad hoc nodes,there is no guarantee about their trustworthiness or behavior,and transversal functionalities are delegated to the extreme nodes.However,while security can be guaranteed in extreme-to-extreme solutions,privacy cannot,as all intermediate nodes still have to handle the data packets they are transporting.Besides,traditional schemes for private anonymous ad hoc communications are vulnerable against modern intelligent attacks based on learning models.The proposed scheme fulfills this gap.Findings show the probability of a successful intelligent attack reduces by up to 65%compared to ad hoc networks with no privacy protection strategy when used the proposed technology.While congestion probability can remain below 0.001%,as required in 6G services.

文摘ThePigeon-InspiredOptimization(PIO)algorithmconstitutes ametaheuristic method derived fromthe homing behaviour of pigeons.Initially formulated for three-dimensional path planning in unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs),the algorithmhas attracted considerable academic and industrial interest owing to its effective balance between exploration and exploitation,coupled with advantages in real-time performance and robustness.Nevertheless,as applications have diversified,limitations in convergence precision and a tendency toward premature convergence have become increasingly evident,highlighting a need for improvement.This reviewsystematically outlines the developmental trajectory of the PIO algorithm,with a particular focus on its core applications in UAV navigation,multi-objective formulations,and a spectrum of variantmodels that have emerged in recent years.It offers a structured analysis of the foundational principles underlying the PIO.It conducts a comparative assessment of various performance-enhanced versions,including hybrid models that integrate mechanisms from other optimization paradigms.Additionally,the strengths andweaknesses of distinct PIOvariants are critically examined frommultiple perspectives,including intrinsic algorithmic characteristics,suitability for specific application scenarios,objective function design,and the rigor of the statistical evaluation methodologies employed in empirical studies.Finally,this paper identifies principal challenges within current PIO research and proposes several prospective research directions.Future work should focus on mitigating premature convergence by refining the two-phase search structure and adjusting the exponential decrease of individual numbers during the landmark operator.Enhancing parameter adaptation strategies,potentially using reinforcement learning for dynamic tuning,and advancing theoretical analyses on convergence and complexity are also critical.Further applications should be explored in constrained path planning,Neural Architecture Search(NAS),and other real-worldmulti-objective problems.For Multi-objective PIO(MPIO),key improvements include controlling the growth of the external archive and designing more effective selection mechanisms to maintain convergence efficiency.These efforts are expected to strengthen both the theoretical foundation and practical versatility of PIO and its variants.

文摘With the rapid development of transportation infrastructure,ensuring road safety through timely and accurate highway inspection has become increasingly critical.Traditional manual inspection methods are not only time-consuming and labor-intensive,but they also struggle to provide consistent,high-precision detection and realtime monitoring of pavement surface defects.To overcome these limitations,we propose an Automatic Recognition of PavementDefect(ARPD)algorithm,which leverages unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)-based aerial imagery to automate the inspection process.The ARPD framework incorporates a backbone network based on the Selective State Space Model(S3M),which is designed to capture long-range temporal dependencies.This enables effective modeling of dynamic correlations among redundant and often repetitive structures commonly found in road imagery.Furthermore,a neck structure based on Semantics and Detail Infusion(SDI)is introduced to guide cross-scale feature fusion.The SDI module enhances the integration of low-level spatial details with high-level semantic cues,thereby improving feature expressiveness and defect localization accuracy.Experimental evaluations demonstrate that theARPDalgorithm achieves a mean average precision(mAP)of 86.1%on a custom-labeled pavement defect dataset,outperforming the state-of-the-art YOLOv11 segmentation model.The algorithm also maintains strong generalization ability on public datasets.These results confirm that ARPD is well-suited for diverse real-world applications in intelligent,large-scale highway defect monitoring and maintenance planning.
