Abstract
The evaluation of coronary morphology provides important guidance for the treatment of coronary heart disease (CHD). A chaotic Gaussian mutation antlion optimizer algorithm (CGALO) is proposed in the paper, and it is combined with SVM to construct a classification prediction model for Fractional flow reserve (FFR). To overcome the limitations of the original antlion optimizer (ALO) algorithm, the chaotic Gaussian mutation strategy is introduced, which leads to an improvement in its convergence speed and accuracy. To evaluate the proposed algorithm's performance, comparative experiments were conducted on 23 benchmark functions alongside 12 other cutting-edge optimization algorithms. The experimental outcomes demonstrate that the proposed algorithm achieves superior convergence accuracy and speed compared to the alternative comparison algorithms. Additionally, it is combined with SVM and FS to construct a hierarchical FFR classification model, which is utilized to make effective predictions for 84 patients at the affiliated hospital of medical school, Ningbo university. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model achieves an average accuracy of 92%. Moreover, it concludes that smoking history, number of lesion vessels, lesion location, diffuse lesions and ST segment changes, and other factors are the most critical indicators for FFR. Therefore, the model that has been established is a new FFR intelligent classification prediction technology that can effectively assist doctors in making corresponding decisions and evaluation plans.

Abstract
The novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) is a respiratory disease of great concern in terms of its dissemination and severity, for which X-ray imaging-based diagnosis is one of the effective complementary diagnostic methods. It is essential to be able to separate and identify lesions from their pathology images regardless of the computer-aided diagnosis techniques. Therefore, image segmentation in the pre-processing stage of COVID-19 pathology images would be more helpful for effective analysis. In this paper, to achieve highly effective pre-processing of COVID-19 pathological images by using multi-threshold image segmentation (MIS), an enhanced version of ant colony optimization for continuous domains (MGACO) is first proposed. In MGACO, not only a new move strategy is introduced, but also the Cauchy-Gaussian fusion strategy is incorporated. It has been accelerated in terms of convergence speed and has significantly enhanced its ability to jump out of the local optimum. Furthermore, an MIS method (MGACO-MIS) based on MGACO is developed, where it applies the non-local means, 2D histogram as the basis, and employs 2D Kapur’s entropy as the fitness function. To demonstrate the performance of MGACO, we qualitatively analyze it in detail and compare it with other peers on 30 benchmark functions from IEEE CEC2014, which proves that it has a stronger capability of solving problems over the original ant colony optimization for continuous domains. To verify the segmentation effect of MGACO-MIS, we conducted a comparison experiment with eight other similar segmentation methods based on real pathology images of COVID-19 at different threshold levels. The final evaluation and analysis results fully demonstrate that the developed MGACO-MIS is sufficient to obtain high-quality segmentation results in the COVID-19 image segmentation and has stronger adaptability to different threshold levels than other methods. Therefore, it has been well-proven that MGACO is an excellent swarm intelligence optimization algorithm, and MGACO-MIS is also an excellent segmentation method.

Abstract
The slime mould algorithm (SMA) is a new meta-heuristic algorithm recently proposed. The algorithm is inspired by the foraging behavior of polycephalus slime moulds. It simulates the behavior and morphological changes of slime moulds during foraging through adaptive weights. Although the original SMA's performance is better than most swarm intelligence algorithms, it still has shortcomings, such as quickly falling into local optimal values and insufficient exploitation. This paper proposes a Gaussian barebone mutation enhanced SMA (GBSMA) to alleviate the original SMA's shortcomings. First of all, the Gaussian function in the Gaussian barebone accelerates the convergence while also expanding the search space, which improves the algorithm exploration and exploitation capabilities. Secondly, the differential evolution (DE) update strategy in the Gaussian barebone, using rand as the guiding vector. It also enhances the algorithm's global search performance to a certain extent. Also, the greedy selection is introduced on this basis, which prevents individuals from performing invalid position updates. In the IEEE CEC2017 test function, the proposed GBSMA is compared with a variety of meta-heuristic algorithms to verify the performance of GBSMA. Besides, GBSMA is applied to solve truss structure optimization problems. Experimental results show that the convergence speed and solution accuracy of the proposed GBSMA are significantly better than the original SMA and other similar products.

Abstract
The goal of this research is to offer an effective intelligent model for forecasting college students’ career decisions in order to give a useful reference for career decisions and policy formation by relevant departments. The suggested prediction model is mainly based on a support vector machine (SVM) that has been modified using an enhanced butterfly optimization approach with a communication mechanism and Gaussian bare-bones mechanism (CBBOA). To get a better set of parameters and feature subsets, first, we added a communication mechanism to BOA to improve its global search capability and balance exploration and exploitation trends. Then, Gaussian bare-bones was added to increase the population diversity of BOA and its ability to jump out of the local optimum. The optimal SVM model (CBBOA-SVM) was then developed to predict the career decisions of college students based on the obtained parameters and feature subsets that are already optimized by CBBOA. In order to verify the effectiveness of CBBOA, we compared it with some advanced algorithms on all benchmark functions of CEC2014. Simulation results demonstrated that the performance of CBBOA is indeed more comprehensive. Meanwhile, comparisons between CBBOA-SVM and other machine learning approaches for career decision prediction were carried out, and the findings demonstrate that the provided CBBOA-SVM has better classification and more stable performance. As a result, it is plausible to conclude that the CBBOA-SVM is capable of being an effective tool for predicting college student career decisions.

Abstract
The artificial bee colony algorithm (ABC) has been successfully applied to various optimization problems, but the algorithm still suffers from slow convergence and poor quality of optimal solutions in the optimization process. Therefore, in this paper, an improved ABC (CCABC) based on a horizontal search mechanism and a vertical search mechanism is proposed to improve the algorithm's performance. In addition, this paper also presents a multilevel thresholding image segmentation (MTIS) method based on CCABC to enhance the effectiveness of the multilevel thresholding image segmentation method. To verify the performance of the proposed CCABC algorithm and the performance of the improved image segmentation method. First, this paper demonstrates the performance of the CCABC algorithm itself by comparing CCABC with 15 algorithms of the same type using 30 benchmark functions. Then, this paper uses the improved multi-threshold segmentation method for the segmentation of COVID-19 X-ray images and compares it with other similar plans in detail. Finally, this paper confirms that the incorporation of CCABC in MTIS is very effective by analyzing appropriate evaluation criteria and affirms that the new MTIS method has a strong segmentation performance.

Multi-Population Parallel Wolf Pack Algorithm for Task Assignment of UAV Swarm. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2021.

Abstract
The effectiveness of the Wolf Pack Algorithm (WPA) in high-dimensional discrete optimization problems has been verified in previous studies; however, it usually takes too long to obtain the best solution. This paper proposes the Multi-Population Parallel Wolf Pack Algorithm (MPPWPA), in which the size of the wolf population is reduced by dividing the population into multiple sub-populations that optimize independently at the same time. Using the approximate average division method, the population is divided into multiple equal mass sub-populations whose better individuals constitute an elite sub-population. Through the elite-mass population distribution, those better individuals are optimized twice by the elite sub-population and mass sub-populations, which can accelerate the convergence. In order to maintain the population diversity, population pretreatment is proposed. The sub-populations migrate according to a constant migration probability and the migration of sub-populations are equivalent to the re-division of the confluent population. Finally, the proposed algorithm is carried out in a synchronous parallel system. Through the simulation experiments on the task assignment of the UAV swarm in three scenarios whose dimensions of solution space are 8, 30 and 150, the MPPWPA is verified as being effective in improving the optimization performance.

Abstract
An appropriate threshold is a key to using the multi-threshold segmentation method to solve image segmentation problems, and the swarm intelligence (SI) optimization algorithm is one of the popular methods to obtain the optimal threshold. Moreover, Salp Swarm Algorithm (SSA) is a recently released swarm intelligent optimization algorithm. Compared with other SI optimization algorithms, the optimization solution strategy of the SSA still needs to be improved to enhance further the solution accuracy and optimization efficiency of the algorithm. Accordingly, this paper designs an effective segmentation method based on a non-local mean 2D histogram and 2D Kapur's entropy called SSA with Gaussian Barebone and Stochastic Fractal Search (GBSFSSSA) by combining Gaussian Barebone and Stochastic Fractal Search mechanism. In GBSFSSSA, the Gaussian Barebone and Stochastic Fractal Search mechanism effectively balance the global search ability and local search ability of the basic SSA. The CEC2017 competition data set is used to prove the algorithm's performance, and GBSFSSSA shows an absolute advantage over some typical competitive algorithms. Furthermore, the algorithm is applied in image segmentation of COVID-19 CT images, and the results are analyzed based on three different metrics: peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity (SSIM), and feature similarity (FSIM), which can lead to the conclusion that the overall performance of GBSFSSSA is better than the comparison algorithm and can effectively improve the segmentation of medical images. Therefore, it is justified that GBSFSSSA is a reliable and effective method in solving the multi-threshold image segmentation problem.

Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the most dangerous diseases for women's health, and it is imperative to provide the necessary diagnostic assistance for it. The medical image processing technology is one of the most critical of all complementary diagnostic technologies. Image segmentation is the core step of image processing, where multilevel image segmentation is considered one of the most efficient and straightforward methods. Many multilevel image segmentation methods based on evolutionary and population-based methods have been proposed in recent years, but many have the fatal weakness of poor convergence accuracy and the tendency to fall into local optimum. Therefore, to overcome these weaknesses, this paper proposes a modified differential evolution (MDE) algorithm with a vision based on the slime mould foraging behavior, where the recently proposed slime mould algorithm (SMA) inspires it. Besides, to obtain high-quality breast cancer image segmentation results, this paper also develops an excellent MDE-based multilevel image segmentation model, the core of which is based on non-local means 2D histogram and 2D Kapur's entropy. To effectively validate the performance of the proposed method, a comparison experiment between MDE and its similar algorithms was first carried out on IEEE CEC 2014. Then, an initial validation of the MDE-based multilevel image segmentation model was performed by utilizing a reference image set. Finally, the MDE-based multilevel image segmentation model was compared with peers using breast invasive ductal carcinoma images. A series of experimental results have proved that MDE is an evolutionary algorithm with high convergence accuracy and the ability to jump out of the local optimum, as well as effectively demonstrated that the developed model is a high-quality segmentation method that can provide practical support for further research of breast invasive ductal carcinoma pathological image processing.

Towards Precision Fertilization: Multi-Strategy Grey Wolf Optimizer Based Model Evaluation and Yield Estimation. ELECTRONICS 2021.

Abstract
Precision fertilization is a major constraint in consistently balancing the contradiction between land resources, ecological environment, and population increase. Even more, it is a popular technology used to maintain sustainable development. Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) are the main sources of nutrient income on farmland. The traditional fertilizer effect function cannot meet the conditional agrochemical theory’s conditional extremes because the soil is influenced by various factors and statistical errors in harvest and yield. In order to find more accurate scientific ratios, it has been proposed a multi-strategy-based grey wolf optimization algorithm (SLEGWO) to solve the fertilizer effect function in this paper, using the “3414” experimental field design scheme, taking the experimental field in Nongan County, Jilin Province as the experimental site to obtain experimental data, and using the residuals of the ternary fertilizer effect function of Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium as the target function. The experimental results showed that the SLEGWO algorithm could improve the fitting degree of the fertilizer effect equation and then reasonably predict the accurate fertilizer application ratio and improve the yield. It is a more accurate precision fertilization modeling method. It provides a new means to solve the problem of precision fertilizer and soil testing and fertilization.

Abstract
The content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system searches and retrieves the similar images from the huge database using the significant features extracted from the image. Feature integration techniques used in the CBIR system assign static weights to each feature involved in the retrieval process that gives a smaller number of similar images as a result. Moreover, the retrieval time of the CBIR system increases due to the entire database search. To overcome this disadvantage the proposed work introduced a two-level searching process in the CBIR system. The initial level of the proposed framework uses the image selection rule to select more relevant images for the second-level process. The second level of the framework takes the proposed dominant color and radial difference pattern details from the query and selected images. By using color and texture features of the selected images, similarity measure is calculated. The proposed work assigns optimal dynamic weight to the similarity measure of color and texture features using the fruit fly optimization algorithm. This improves the retrieval performance of the CBIR system.

Abstract
Bio-inspired computing is an engaging area of artificial intelligence which studies how natural phenomena provide a rich source of inspiration in the design of smart procedures able to become powerful algorithms. Many of these procedures have been successfully used in classification, prediction, and optimization problems. Swarm intelligence methods are a kind of bio-inspired algorithm that have been shown to be impressive optimization solvers for a long time. However, for these algorithms to reach their maximum performance, the proper setting of the initial parameters by an expert user is required. This task is extremely comprehensive and it must be done in a previous phase of the search process. Different online methods have been developed to support swarm intelligence techniques, however, this issue remains an open challenge. In this paper, we propose a hybrid approach that allows adjusting the parameters based on a state deducted by the swarm intelligence algorithm. The state deduction is determined by the classification of a chain of observations using the hidden Markov model. The results show that our proposal exhibits good performance compared to the original version.

Evolving fuzzy k-nearest neighbors using an enhanced sine cosine algorithm: Case study of lupus nephritis. Comput Biol Med 2021; 135:104582. [PMID: 34214940 DOI: 10.1016/j.compbiomed.2021.104582] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2021] [Revised: 06/13/2021] [Accepted: 06/13/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
Because of its simplicity and effectiveness, fuzzy K-nearest neighbors (FKNN) is widely used in literature. The parameters have an essential impact on the performance of FKNN. Hence, the parameters need to be attuned to suit different problems. Also, choosing more representative features can enhance the performance of FKNN. This research proposes an improved optimization technique based on the sine cosine algorithm (LSCA), which introduces a linear population size reduction mechanism for enhancing the original algorithm's performance. Moreover, we developed an FKNN model based on the LSCA, it simultaneously performs feature selection and parameter optimization. Firstly, the search performance of LSCA is verified on the IEEE CEC2017 benchmark test function compared to the classical and improved algorithms. Secondly, the validity of the LSCA-FKNN model is verified on three medical datasets. Finally, we used the proposed LSCA-FKNN to predict lupus nephritis classes, and the model showed competitive results.

Multilevel threshold image segmentation with diffusion association slime mould algorithm and Renyi's entropy for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Comput Biol Med 2021; 134:104427.

Abstract
Image segmentation is an essential pre-processing step and is an indispensable part of image analysis. This paper proposes Renyi's entropy multi-threshold image segmentation based on an improved Slime Mould Algorithm (DASMA). First, we introduce the diffusion mechanism (DM) into the original SMA to increase the population's diversity so that the variants can better avoid falling into local optima. The association strategy (AS) is then added to help the algorithm find the optimal solution faster. Finally, the proposed algorithm is applied to Renyi's entropy multilevel threshold image segmentation based on non-local means 2D histogram. The proposed method's effectiveness is demonstrated on the Berkeley segmentation dataset and benchmark (BSD) by comparing it with some well-known algorithms. The DASMA-based multilevel threshold segmentation technique is also successfully applied to the CT image segmentation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The experimental results are evaluated by image quality metrics, which show the proposed algorithm's extraordinary performance. This means that it can help doctors analyze the lesion tissue qualitatively and quantitatively, improve its diagnostic accuracy and make the right treatment plan.

EXPERT SYSTEMS WITH APPLICATIONS 2021; 166:114090. [PMID: 33041529 DOI: 10.1016/j.eswa.2021.114864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 269] [Impact Index Per Article: 89.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2020] [Revised: 09/17/2020] [Accepted: 10/02/2020] [Indexed: 05/27/2023]
Abstract
The wide spread of fake news has caused huge losses to both governments and the public. Many existing works on fake news detection utilized spreading information like propagators profiles and the propagation structure. However, such methods face the difficulty of data collection and cannot detect fake news at the early stage. An alternative approach is to detect fake news solely based on its content. Early content-based methods rely on manually designed linguistic features. Such shallow features are domain-dependent, and cannot easily be generalized to cross-domain data. Recently, many natural language processing tasks resort to deep learning methods to learn word, sentence, and document representations. In this paper, we propose a novel graph-based neural network model named SemSeq4FD for early fake news detection based on enhanced text representations. In SemSeq4FD, we model the global pair-wise semantic relations between sentences as a complete graph, and learn the global sentence representations via a graph convolutional network with self-attention mechanism. Considering the importance of local context in conveying the sentence meaning, we employ a 1D convolutional network to learn the local sentence representations. The two representations are combined to form the enhanced sentence representations. Then a LSTM-based network is used to model the sequence of enhanced sentence representations, yielding the final document representation for fake news detection. Experiments conducted on four real-world datasets in English and Chinese, including cross-source and cross-domain datasets, demonstrate that our model can outperform the state-of-the-art methods.

Abstract
This study is devoted to proposing a useful intelligent prediction model to distinguish the severity of COVID-19, to provide a more fair and reasonable reference for assisting clinical diagnostic decision-making. Based on patients' necessary information, pre-existing diseases, symptoms, immune indexes, and complications, this article proposes a prediction model using the Harris hawks optimization (HHO) to optimize the Fuzzy K-nearest neighbor (FKNN), which is called HHO-FKNN. This model is utilized to distinguish the severity of COVID-19. In HHO-FKNN, the purpose of introducing HHO is to optimize the FKNN's optimal parameters and feature subsets simultaneously. Also, based on actual COVID-19 data, we conducted a comparative experiment between HHO-FKNN and several well-known machine learning algorithms, which result shows that not only the proposed HHO-FKNN can obtain better classification performance and higher stability on the four indexes but also screen out the key features that distinguish severe COVID-19 from mild COVID-19. Therefore, we can conclude that the proposed HHO-FKNN model is expected to become a useful tool for COVID-19 prediction.
