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.展开更多

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

文摘Previous studies have shown that deep learning is very effective in detecting known attacks.However,when facing unknown attacks,models such as Deep Neural Networks(DNN)combined with Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM),Convolutional Neural Networks(CNN)combined with LSTM,and so on are built by simple stacking,which has the problems of feature loss,low efficiency,and low accuracy.Therefore,this paper proposes an autonomous detectionmodel for Distributed Denial of Service attacks,Multi-Scale Convolutional Neural Network-Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Units-Single Headed Attention(MSCNN-BiGRU-SHA),which is based on a Multistrategy Integrated Zebra Optimization Algorithm(MI-ZOA).The model undergoes training and testing with the CICDDoS2019 dataset,and its performance is evaluated on a new GINKS2023 dataset.The hyperparameters for Conv_filter and GRU_unit are optimized using the Multi-strategy Integrated Zebra Optimization Algorithm(MIZOA).The experimental results show that the test accuracy of the MSCNN-BiGRU-SHA model based on the MIZOA proposed in this paper is as high as 0.9971 in the CICDDoS 2019 dataset.The evaluation accuracy of the new dataset GINKS2023 created in this paper is 0.9386.Compared to the MSCNN-BiGRU-SHA model based on the Zebra Optimization Algorithm(ZOA),the detection accuracy on the GINKS2023 dataset has improved by 5.81%,precisionhas increasedby 1.35%,the recallhas improvedby 9%,and theF1scorehas increasedby 5.55%.Compared to the MSCNN-BiGRU-SHA models developed using Grid Search,Random Search,and Bayesian Optimization,the MSCNN-BiGRU-SHA model optimized with the MI-ZOA exhibits better performance in terms of accuracy,precision,recall,and F1 score.

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This research presents a novel nature-inspired metaheuristic optimization algorithm,called theNarwhale Optimization Algorithm(NWOA).The algorithm draws inspiration from the foraging and prey-hunting strategies of narwhals,“unicorns of the sea”,particularly the use of their distinctive spiral tusks,which play significant roles in hunting,searching prey,navigation,echolocation,and complex social interaction.Particularly,the NWOA imitates the foraging strategies and techniques of narwhals when hunting for prey but focuses mainly on the cooperative and exploratory behavior shown during group hunting and in the use of their tusks in sensing and locating prey under the Arctic ice.These functions provide a strong assessment basis for investigating the algorithm’s prowess at balancing exploration and exploitation,convergence speed,and solution accuracy.The performance of the NWOA is evaluated on 30 benchmark test functions.A comparison study using the Grey Wolf Optimizer(GWO),Whale Optimization Algorithm(WOA),Perfumer Optimization Algorithm(POA),Candle Flame Optimization(CFO)Algorithm,Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)Algorithm,and Genetic Algorithm(GA)validates the results.As evidenced in the experimental results,NWOA is capable of yielding competitive outcomes among these well-known optimizers,whereas in several instances.These results suggest thatNWOAhas proven to be an effective and robust optimization tool suitable for solving many different complex optimization problems from the real world.
文摘Cloud computing has become an essential technology for the management and processing of large datasets,offering scalability,high availability,and fault tolerance.However,optimizing data replication across multiple data centers poses a significant challenge,especially when balancing opposing goals such as latency,storage costs,energy consumption,and network efficiency.This study introduces a novel Dynamic Optimization Algorithm called Dynamic Multi-Objective Gannet Optimization(DMGO),designed to enhance data replication efficiency in cloud environments.Unlike traditional static replication systems,DMGO adapts dynamically to variations in network conditions,system demand,and resource availability.The approach utilizes multi-objective optimization approaches to efficiently balance data access latency,storage efficiency,and operational costs.DMGO consistently evaluates data center performance and adjusts replication algorithms in real time to guarantee optimal system efficiency.Experimental evaluations conducted in a simulated cloud environment demonstrate that DMGO significantly outperforms conventional static algorithms,achieving faster data access,lower storage overhead,reduced energy consumption,and improved scalability.The proposed methodology offers a robust and adaptable solution for modern cloud systems,ensuring efficient resource consumption while maintaining high performance.
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This paper introduces a hybrid multi-objective optimization algorithm,designated HMODESFO,which amalgamates the exploratory prowess of Differential Evolution(DE)with the rapid convergence attributes of the Sailfish Optimization(SFO)algorithm.The primary objective is to address multi-objective optimization challenges within mechanical engineering,with a specific emphasis on planetary gearbox optimization.The algorithm is equipped with the ability to dynamically select the optimal mutation operator,contingent upon an adaptive normalized population spacing parameter.The efficacy of HMODESFO has been substantiated through rigorous validation against estab-lished industry benchmarks,including a suite of Zitzler-Deb-Thiele(ZDT)and Zeb-Thiele-Laumanns-Zitzler(DTLZ)problems,where it exhibited superior performance.The outcomes underscore the algorithm’s markedly enhanced optimization capabilities relative to existing methods,particularly in tackling highly intricate multi-objective planetary gearbox optimization problems.Additionally,the performance of HMODESFO is evaluated against selected well-known mechanical engineering test problems,further accentuating its adeptness in resolving complex optimization challenges within this domain.
文摘In this study,a completely different approach to optimization is introduced through the development of a novel metaheuristic algorithm called the Barber Optimization Algorithm(BaOA).Inspired by the human interactions between barbers and customers,BaOA captures two key processes:the customer’s selection of a hairstyle and the detailed refinement during the haircut.These processes are translated into a mathematical framework that forms the foundation of BaOA,consisting of two critical phases:exploration,representing the creative selection process,and exploitation,which focuses on refining details for optimization.The performance of BaOA is evaluated using 52 standard benchmark functions,including unimodal,high-dimensional multimodal,fixed-dimensional multimodal,and the Congress on Evolutionary Computation(CEC)2017 test suite.This comprehensive assessment highlights BaOA’s ability to balance exploration and exploitation effectively,resulting in high-quality solutions.A comparative analysis against twelve widely known metaheuristic algorithms further demonstrates BaOA’s superior performance,as it consistently delivers better results across most benchmark functions.To validate its real-world applicability,BaOA is tested on four engineering design problems,illustrating its capability to address practical challenges with remarkable efficiency.The results confirm BaOA’s versatility and reliability as an optimization tool.This study not only introduces an innovative algorithm but also establishes its effectiveness in solving complex problems,providing a foundation for future research and applications in diverse scientific and engineering domains.
文摘The uncertain nature of mapping user tasks to Virtual Machines(VMs) causes system failure or execution delay in Cloud Computing.To maximize cloud resource throughput and decrease user response time,load balancing is needed.Possible load balancing is needed to overcome user task execution delay and system failure.Most swarm intelligent dynamic load balancing solutions that used hybrid metaheuristic algorithms failed to balance exploitation and exploration.Most load balancing methods were insufficient to handle the growing uncertainty in job distribution to VMs.Thus,the Hybrid Spotted Hyena and Whale Optimization Algorithm-based Dynamic Load Balancing Mechanism(HSHWOA) partitions traffic among numerous VMs or servers to guarantee user chores are completed quickly.This load balancing approach improved performance by considering average network latency,dependability,and throughput.This hybridization of SHOA and WOA aims to improve the trade-off between exploration and exploitation,assign jobs to VMs with more solution diversity,and prevent the solution from reaching a local optimality.Pysim-based experimental verification and testing for the proposed HSHWOA showed a 12.38% improvement in minimized makespan,16.21% increase in mean throughput,and 14.84% increase in network stability compared to baseline load balancing strategies like Fractional Improved Whale Social Optimization Based VM Migration Strategy FIWSOA,HDWOA,and Binary Bird Swap.

文摘Nowadays,abnormal traffic detection for Software-Defined Networking(SDN)faces the challenges of large data volume and high dimensionality.Since traditional machine learning-based detection methods have the problem of data redundancy,the Metaheuristic Algorithm(MA)is introduced to select features beforemachine learning to reduce the dimensionality of data.Since a Tyrannosaurus Optimization Algorithm(TROA)has the advantages of few parameters,simple implementation,and fast convergence,and it shows better results in feature selection,TROA can be applied to abnormal traffic detection for SDN.However,TROA suffers frominsufficient global search capability,is easily trapped in local optimums,and has poor search accuracy.Then,this paper tries to improve TROA,namely the Improved Tyrannosaurus Optimization Algorithm(ITROA).It proposes a metaheuristic-driven abnormal traffic detection model for SDN based on ITROA.Finally,the validity of the ITROA is verified by the benchmark function and the UCI dataset,and the feature selection optimization operation is performed on the InSDN dataset by ITROA and other MAs to obtain the optimized feature subset for SDN abnormal traffic detection.The experiment shows that the performance of the proposed ITROA outperforms compared MAs in terms of the metaheuristic-driven model for SDN,achieving an accuracy of 99.37%on binary classification and 96.73%on multiclassification.

文摘Wind farm layout optimization is a critical challenge in renewable energy development,especially in regions with complex terrain.Micro-siting of wind turbines has a significant impact on the overall efficiency and economic viability of wind farm,where the wake effect,wind speed,types of wind turbines,etc.,have an impact on the output power of the wind farm.To solve the optimization problem of wind farm layout under complex terrain conditions,this paper proposes wind turbine layout optimization using different types of wind turbines,the aim is to reduce the influence of the wake effect and maximize economic benefits.The linear wake model is used for wake flow calculation over complex terrain.Minimizing the unit energy cost is taken as the objective function,considering that the objective function is affected by cost and output power,which influence each other.The cost function includes construction cost,installation cost,maintenance cost,etc.Therefore,a bi-level constrained optimization model is established,in which the upper-level objective function is to minimize the unit energy cost,and the lower-level objective function is to maximize the output power.Then,a hybrid evolutionary algorithm is designed according to the characteristics of the decision variables.The improved genetic algorithm and differential evolution are used to optimize the upper-level and lower-level objective functions,respectively,these evolutionary operations search for the optimal solution as much as possible.Finally,taking the roughness of different terrain,wind farms of different scales and different types of wind turbines as research scenarios,the optimal deployment is solved by using the algorithm in this paper,and four algorithms are compared to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

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Reliable Cluster Head(CH)selectionbased routing protocols are necessary for increasing the packet transmission efficiency with optimal path discovery that never introduces degradation over the transmission reliability.In this paper,Hybrid Golden Jackal,and Improved Whale Optimization Algorithm(HGJIWOA)is proposed as an effective and optimal routing protocol that guarantees efficient routing of data packets in the established between the CHs and the movable sink.This HGJIWOA included the phases of Dynamic Lens-Imaging Learning Strategy and Novel Update Rules for determining the reliable route essential for data packets broadcasting attained through fitness measure estimation-based CH selection.The process of CH selection achieved using Golden Jackal Optimization Algorithm(GJOA)completely depends on the factors of maintainability,consistency,trust,delay,and energy.The adopted GJOA algorithm play a dominant role in determining the optimal path of routing depending on the parameter of reduced delay and minimal distance.It further utilized Improved Whale Optimisation Algorithm(IWOA)for forwarding the data from chosen CHs to the BS via optimized route depending on the parameters of energy and distance.It also included a reliable route maintenance process that aids in deciding the selected route through which data need to be transmitted or re-routed.The simulation outcomes of the proposed HGJIWOA mechanism with different sensor nodes confirmed an improved mean throughput of 18.21%,sustained residual energy of 19.64%with minimized end-to-end delay of 21.82%,better than the competitive CH selection approaches.

文摘In this research work,the localized generation from renewable resources and the distribution of energy to agricultural loads,which is a local microgrid concept,have been considered,and its feasibility has been assessed.Two dispatch algorithms,named Cycle Charging and Load Following,are implemented to find the optimal solution(i.e.,net cost,operation cost,carbon emission.energy cost,component sizing,etc.)of the hybrid system.The microgrid is also modeled in the DIgSILENT Power Factory platform,and the respective power system responses are then evaluated.The development of dispatch algorithms specifically tailored for agricultural applications has enabled to dynamically manage energy flows,responding to fluctuating demands and resource availability in real-time.Through careful consideration of factors such as seasonal variations and irrigation requirements,these algorithms have enhanced the resilience and adaptability of the microgrid to dynamic operational conditions.However,it is revealed that both approaches have produced the same techno-economic results showing no significant difference.This illustrates the fact that the considered microgrid can be implemented with either strategy without significant fluctuation in performance.The study has shown that the harmful gas emission has also been limited to only 17,928 kg/year of CO_(2),and 77.7 kg/year of Sulfur Dioxide.For the proposed microgrid and load profile of 165.29 kWh/day,the net present cost is USD 718,279,and the cost of energy is USD 0.0463 with a renewable fraction of 97.6%.The optimal sizes for PV,Bio,Grid,Electrolyzer,and Converter are 1494,500,999,999,500,and 495 kW,respectively.For a hydrogen tank(HTank),the optimal size is found to be 350 kg.This research work provides critical insights into the techno-economic feasibility and environmental impact of integrating biomass-PV-hydrogen storage-Grid hybrid renewable microgrids into agricultural settings.
