However, how to address the problems posed by multiple variables, nonlinearities, and uncertainties during optimization remains a formidable challenge. In this study, a strategy combining interpretable machine learning with metaheuristic optimization algorithms is employed to optimize the reaction process. First, experimental data from a biodiesel production process are collected to establish a database. These data are then used to construct a predictive model based on artificial neural network (ANN) models. Subsequently, interpretable machine learning techniques are applied for quantitative analysis and verification of the model. Finally, four metaheuristic optimization algorithms are coupled with the ANN model to achieve the desired optimization. The research results show that the methanol: palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD) molar ratio contributes the most to the reaction outcome, accounting for 41%. The ANN-simulated annealing (SA) hybrid method is more suitable for this optimization, and the optimal process parameters are a catalyst concentration of 3.00% (mass), a methanol: PFAD molar ratio of 8.67, and a reaction time of 30 min. This study provides deeper insights into reaction process optimization, which will facilitate future applications in various reaction optimization processes.展开更多

However, the complexity and uncertainty of the scheduling problem severely limit algorithms. To bypass this circumvent, numerous algorithms have been proposed. The Hiking Optimization Algorithm (HOA) have been used in multiple fields. However, HOA suffers from local optimization, slow convergence, and low efficiency of late iteration search when solving cloud task scheduling problems. Thus, this paper proposes an improved HOA called CMOHOA. It collaborates with multi-strategy to improve HOA. Specifically, Chebyshev chaos is introduced to increase population diversity. Then, a hybrid speed update strategy is designed to enhance convergence speed. Meanwhile, an adversarial learning strategy is introduced to enhance the search capability in the late iteration. Different scenarios of scheduling problems are used to test the CMOHOA’s performance. First, CMOHOA was used to solve basic cloud computing task scheduling problems, and the results showed that it reduced the average total cost by 10% or more. Secondly, CMOHOA has been applied to edge fog cloud scheduling problems, and the results show that it reduces the average total scheduling cost by 2% or more. Finally, CMOHOA reduced the average total cost by 7% or more in scheduling problems for information transmission.展开更多

Several meta-heuristic algorithms have shown effectiveness in task scheduling, among which the relatively recent Willow Catkin Optimization (WCO) algorithm has demonstrated potential, albeit with apparent needs for enhanced global search capability and convergence speed. To address these limitations of WCO in cloud computing task scheduling, this paper introduces an improved version termed the Advanced Willow Catkin Optimization (AWCO) algorithm. AWCO enhances the algorithm’s performance by augmenting its global search capability through a quasi-opposition-based learning strategy and accelerating its convergence speed via sinusoidal mapping. A comprehensive evaluation utilizing the CEC2014 benchmark suite, comprising 30 test functions, demonstrates that AWCO achieves superior optimization outcomes, surpassing conventional WCO and a range of established meta-heuristics. The proposed algorithm also considers trade-offs among the cost, makespan, and load balancing objectives. Experimental results of AWCO are compared with those obtained using the other meta-heuristics, illustrating that the proposed algorithm provides superior performance in task scheduling. The method offers a robust foundation for enhancing the utilization of cloud computing resources in the domain of task scheduling within a cloud computing environment.展开更多

文摘Uneven power distribution,transient voltage,and frequency deviations are observed in the photovoltaic storage hybrid inverter during the switching between grid-connected and island modes.In response to these issues,this paper proposes a grid-connected/island switching control strategy for photovoltaic storage hybrid inverters based on the modified chimpanzee optimization algorithm.The proposed strategy incorporates coupling compensation and power differentiation elements based on the traditional droop control.Then,it combines the angular frequency and voltage amplitude adjustments provided by the phase-locked loop-free pre-synchronization control strategy.Precise pre-synchronization is achieved by regulating the virtual current to zero and aligning the photovoltaic storage hybrid inverter with the grid voltage.Additionally,two novel operators,learning and emotional behaviors are introduced to enhance the optimization precision of the chimpanzee algorithm.These operators ensure high-precision and high-reliability optimization of the droop control parameters for photovoltaic storage hybrid inverters.A Simulink model was constructed for simulation analysis,which validated the optimized control strategy’s ability to evenly distribute power under load transients.This strategy effectively mitigated transient voltage and current surges during mode transitions.Consequently,seamless and efficient switching between gridconnected and island modes was achieved for the photovoltaic storage hybrid inverter.The enhanced energy utilization efficiency,in turn,offers robust technical support for grid stability.

文摘Software defect prediction(SDP)aims to find a reliable method to predict defects in specific software projects and help software engineers allocate limited resources to release high-quality software products.Software defect prediction can be effectively performed using traditional features,but there are some redundant or irrelevant features in them(the presence or absence of this feature has little effect on the prediction results).These problems can be solved using feature selection.However,existing feature selection methods have shortcomings such as insignificant dimensionality reduction effect and low classification accuracy of the selected optimal feature subset.In order to reduce the impact of these shortcomings,this paper proposes a new feature selection method Cubic TraverseMa Beluga whale optimization algorithm(CTMBWO)based on the improved Beluga whale optimization algorithm(BWO).The goal of this study is to determine how well the CTMBWO can extract the features that are most important for correctly predicting software defects,improve the accuracy of fault prediction,reduce the number of the selected feature and mitigate the risk of overfitting,thereby achieving more efficient resource utilization and better distribution of test workload.The CTMBWO comprises three main stages:preprocessing the dataset,selecting relevant features,and evaluating the classification performance of the model.The novel feature selection method can effectively improve the performance of SDP.This study performs experiments on two software defect datasets(PROMISE,NASA)and shows the method’s classification performance using four detailed evaluation metrics,Accuracy,F1-score,MCC,AUC and Recall.The results indicate that the approach presented in this paper achieves outstanding classification performance on both datasets and has significant improvement over the baseline models.

文摘As vehicular networks grow increasingly complex due to high node mobility and dynamic traffic conditions,efficient clustering mechanisms are vital to ensure stable and scalable communication.Recent studies have emphasized the need for adaptive clustering strategies to improve performance in Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS).This paper presents the Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm for Vehicular Network Clustering(GOAVNET)algorithm,an innovative approach to optimal vehicular clustering in Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks(VANETs),leveraging the Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm(GOA)to address the critical challenges of traffic congestion and communication inefficiencies in Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS).The proposed GOA-VNET employs an iterative and interactive optimization mechanism to dynamically adjust node positions and cluster configurations,ensuring robust adaptability to varying vehicular densities and transmission ranges.Key features of GOA-VNET include the utilization of attraction zone,repulsion zone,and comfort zone parameters,which collectively enhance clustering efficiency and minimize congestion within Regions of Interest(ROI).By managing cluster configurations and node densities effectively,GOA-VNET ensures balanced load distribution and seamless data transmission,even in scenarios with high vehicular densities and varying transmission ranges.Comparative evaluations against the Whale Optimization Algorithm(WOA)and Grey Wolf Optimization(GWO)demonstrate that GOA-VNET consistently outperforms these methods by achieving superior clustering efficiency,reducing the number of clusters by up to 10%in high-density scenarios,and improving data transmission reliability.Simulation results reveal that under a 100-600 m transmission range,GOA-VNET achieves an average reduction of 8%-15%in the number of clusters and maintains a 5%-10%improvement in packet delivery ratio(PDR)compared to baseline algorithms.Additionally,the algorithm incorporates a heat transfer-inspired load-balancing mechanism,ensuring equitable distribution of nodes among cluster leaders(CLs)and maintaining a stable network environment.These results validate GOA-VNET as a reliable and scalable solution for VANETs,with significant potential to support next-generation ITS.Future research could further enhance the algorithm by integrating multi-objective optimization techniques and exploring broader applications in complex traffic scenarios.

文摘This paper addresses the shortcomings of the Sparrow and Eagle Optimization Algorithm (SBOA) in terms of convergence accuracy, convergence speed, and susceptibility to local optima. To this end, an improved Sparrow and Eagle Optimization Algorithm (HS-SBOA) is proposed. Initially, the algorithm employs Iterative Mapping to generate an initial sparrow and eagle population, enhancing the diversity of the population during the global search phase. Subsequently, an adaptive weighting strategy is introduced during the exploration phase of the algorithm to achieve a balance between exploration and exploitation. Finally, to avoid the algorithm falling into local optima, a Cauchy mutation operation is applied to the current best individual. To validate the performance of the HS-SBOA algorithm, it was applied to the CEC2021 benchmark function set and three practical engineering problems, and compared with other optimization algorithms such as the Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) to test the effectiveness of the improved algorithm. The simulation experimental results show that the HS-SBOA algorithm demonstrates significant advantages in terms of convergence speed and accuracy, thereby validating the effectiveness of its improved strategies.

文摘In Rayleigh wave exploration,the inversion of dispersion curves is a crucial step for obtaining subsurface stratigraphic information,characterized by its multi-parameter and multi-extremum nature.Local optimization algorithms used in dispersion curve inversion are highly dependent on the initial model and are prone to being trapped in local optima,while classical global optimization algorithms often suffer from slow convergence and low solution accuracy.To address these issues,this study introduces the Osprey Optimization Algorithm(OOA),known for its strong global search and local exploitation capabilities,into the inversion of dispersion curves to enhance inversion performance.In noiseless theoretical models,the OOA demonstrates excellent inversion accuracy and stability,accurately recovering model parameters.Even in noisy models,OOA maintains robust performance,achieving high inversion precision under high-noise conditions.In multimode dispersion curve tests,OOA effectively handles higher modes due to its efficient global and local search capabilities,and the inversion results show high consistency with theoretical values.Field data from the Wyoming region in the United States and a landfill site in Italy further verify the practical applicability of the OOA.Comprehensive test results indicate that the OOA outperforms the Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)algorithm,providing a highly accurate and reliable inversion strategy for dispersion curve inversion.

文摘The optimization of reaction processes is crucial for the green, efficient, and sustainable development of the chemical industry. However, how to address the problems posed by multiple variables, nonlinearities, and uncertainties during optimization remains a formidable challenge. In this study, a strategy combining interpretable machine learning with metaheuristic optimization algorithms is employed to optimize the reaction process. First, experimental data from a biodiesel production process are collected to establish a database. These data are then used to construct a predictive model based on artificial neural network (ANN) models. Subsequently, interpretable machine learning techniques are applied for quantitative analysis and verification of the model. Finally, four metaheuristic optimization algorithms are coupled with the ANN model to achieve the desired optimization. The research results show that the methanol: palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD) molar ratio contributes the most to the reaction outcome, accounting for 41%. The ANN-simulated annealing (SA) hybrid method is more suitable for this optimization, and the optimal process parameters are a catalyst concentration of 3.00% (mass), a methanol: PFAD molar ratio of 8.67, and a reaction time of 30 min. This study provides deeper insights into reaction process optimization, which will facilitate future applications in various reaction optimization processes.

文摘Metaheuristic algorithms are pivotal in cloud task scheduling. However, the complexity and uncertainty of the scheduling problem severely limit algorithms. To bypass this circumvent, numerous algorithms have been proposed. The Hiking Optimization Algorithm (HOA) have been used in multiple fields. However, HOA suffers from local optimization, slow convergence, and low efficiency of late iteration search when solving cloud task scheduling problems. Thus, this paper proposes an improved HOA called CMOHOA. It collaborates with multi-strategy to improve HOA. Specifically, Chebyshev chaos is introduced to increase population diversity. Then, a hybrid speed update strategy is designed to enhance convergence speed. Meanwhile, an adversarial learning strategy is introduced to enhance the search capability in the late iteration. Different scenarios of scheduling problems are used to test the CMOHOA’s performance. First, CMOHOA was used to solve basic cloud computing task scheduling problems, and the results showed that it reduced the average total cost by 10% or more. Secondly, CMOHOA has been applied to edge fog cloud scheduling problems, and the results show that it reduces the average total scheduling cost by 2% or more. Finally, CMOHOA reduced the average total cost by 7% or more in scheduling problems for information transmission.

文摘The widespread adoption of cloud computing has underscored the critical importance of efficient resource allocation and management, particularly in task scheduling, which involves assigning tasks to computing resources for optimized resource utilization. Several meta-heuristic algorithms have shown effectiveness in task scheduling, among which the relatively recent Willow Catkin Optimization (WCO) algorithm has demonstrated potential, albeit with apparent needs for enhanced global search capability and convergence speed. To address these limitations of WCO in cloud computing task scheduling, this paper introduces an improved version termed the Advanced Willow Catkin Optimization (AWCO) algorithm. AWCO enhances the algorithm’s performance by augmenting its global search capability through a quasi-opposition-based learning strategy and accelerating its convergence speed via sinusoidal mapping. A comprehensive evaluation utilizing the CEC2014 benchmark suite, comprising 30 test functions, demonstrates that AWCO achieves superior optimization outcomes, surpassing conventional WCO and a range of established meta-heuristics. The proposed algorithm also considers trade-offs among the cost, makespan, and load balancing objectives. Experimental results of AWCO are compared with those obtained using the other meta-heuristics, illustrating that the proposed algorithm provides superior performance in task scheduling. The method offers a robust foundation for enhancing the utilization of cloud computing resources in the domain of task scheduling within a cloud computing environment.
