Abstract
This research introduces an efficacious model for incremental data clustering using Entropy weighted-Gradient Namib Beetle Mayfly Algorithm (NBMA). Here, feature selection is done based upon support vector machine recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE), where the weight parameter is optimally fine-tuned using NBMA. After that, clustering is carried out utilizing entropy weighted power k-means clustering algorithm and weight is updated employing designed Gradient NBMA. Finally, incremental data clustering takes place in which centroid matching is carried out based on RV coefficient, whereas centroid is updated based on deep maxout network (DMN). Also, the result shows the better performance of the proposed method..

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective study. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to develop an initial deep-learning (DL) model based on computerized tomography (CT) scans for diagnosing lumbar spinal stenosis. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Magnetic resonance imaging is commonly used for diagnosing lumbar spinal stenosis due to its high soft tissue resolution, but CT is more portable, cost-effective, and has wider regional coverage. Using DL models to improve the accuracy of CT diagnosis can effectively reduce missed diagnoses and misdiagnoses in clinical practice. MATERIALS AND METHODS Axial lumbar spine CT scans obtained between March 2022 and September 2023 were included. The data set was divided into a training set (62.3%), a validation set (22.9%), and a control set (14.8%). All data were labeled by two spine surgeons using the widely accepted grading system for lumbar spinal stenosis. The training and validation sets were used to annotate the regions of interest by the two spine surgeons. First, a region of interest detection model and a convolutional neural network classifier were trained using the training set. After training, the model was preliminarily evaluated using a validation set. Finally, the performance of the DL model was evaluated on the control set, and a comparison was made between the model and the classification performance of specialists with varying levels of experience. RESULTS The central stenosis grading accuracies of DL Model Version 1 and DL Model Version 2 were 88% and 83%, respectively. The lateral recess grading accuracies of DL Model Version 1 and DL Model Version 2 were 75% and 71%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our preliminarily developed DL system for assessing the degree of lumbar spinal stenosis in CT, including the central canal and lateral recess, has shown similar accuracy to experienced specialist physicians. This holds great value for further development and clinical application.

[PMID: 37887629 PMCID: PMC10604828 DOI: 10.3390/biomimetics8060499] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2023] [Revised: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 10/17/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023] Open
Abstract
The early detection of oral cancer is pivotal for improving patient survival rates. However, the high cost of manual initial screenings poses a challenge, especially in resource-limited settings. Deep learning offers an enticing solution by enabling automated and cost-effective screening. This study introduces a groundbreaking empirical framework designed to revolutionize the accurate and automatic classification of oral cancer using microscopic histopathology slide images. This innovative system capitalizes on the power of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), strengthened by the synergy of transfer learning (TL), and further fine-tuned using the novel Aquila Optimizer (AO) and Gorilla Troops Optimizer (GTO), two cutting-edge metaheuristic optimization algorithms. This integration is a novel approach, addressing bias and unpredictability issues commonly encountered in the preprocessing and optimization phases. In the experiments, the capabilities of well-established pre-trained TL models, including VGG19, VGG16, MobileNet, MobileNetV3Small, MobileNetV2, MobileNetV3Large, NASNetMobile, and DenseNet201, all initialized with 'ImageNet' weights, were harnessed. The experimental dataset consisted of the Histopathologic Oral Cancer Detection dataset, which includes a 'normal' class with 2494 images and an 'OSCC' (oral squamous cell carcinoma) class with 2698 images. The results reveal a remarkable performance distinction between the AO and GTO, with the AO consistently outperforming the GTO across all models except for the Xception model. The DenseNet201 model stands out as the most accurate, achieving an astounding average accuracy rate of 99.25% with the AO and 97.27% with the GTO. This innovative framework signifies a significant leap forward in automating oral cancer detection, showcasing the tremendous potential of applying optimized deep learning models in the realm of healthcare diagnostics. The integration of the AO and GTO in our CNN-based system not only pushes the boundaries of classification accuracy but also underscores the transformative impact of metaheuristic optimization techniques in the field of medical image analysis.

Abstract
Various statistical data indicate that mobile source pollutants have become a significant contributor to atmospheric environmental pollution, with vehicle tailpipe emissions being the primary contributor to these mobile source pollutants. The motion shadow generated by motor vehicles bears a visual resemblance to emitted black smoke, making this study primarily focused on the interference of motion shadows in the detection of black smoke vehicles. Initially, the YOLOv5s model is used to locate moving objects, including motor vehicles, motion shadows, and black smoke emissions. The extracted images of these moving objects are then processed using simple linear iterative clustering to obtain superpixel images of the three categories for model training. Finally, these superpixel images are fed into a lightweight MobileNetv3 network to build a black smoke vehicle detection model for recognition and classification. This study breaks away from the traditional approach of "detection first, then removal" to overcome shadow interference and instead employs a "segmentation-classification" approach, ingeniously addressing the coexistence of motion shadows and black smoke emissions. Experimental results show that the Y-MobileNetv3 model, which takes motion shadows into account, achieves an accuracy rate of 95.17%, a 4.73% improvement compared with the N-MobileNetv3 model (which does not consider motion shadows). Moreover, the average single-image inference time is only 7.3 ms. The superpixel segmentation algorithm effectively clusters similar pixels, facilitating the detection of trace amounts of black smoke emissions from motor vehicles. The Y-MobileNetv3 model not only improves the accuracy of black smoke vehicle recognition but also meets the real-time detection requirements.

Abstract
Piezoresistive pressure sensors exhibit inherent nonlinearity and sensitivity to ambient temperature, requiring multidimensional compensation to achieve accurate measurements. However, recent studies on software compensation mainly focused on developing advanced and intricate algorithms while neglecting the importance of calibration data and the limitation of computing resources. This paper aims to present a novel compensation method which generates more data by learning the calibration process of pressure sensors and uses a larger dataset instead of more complex models to improve the compensation effect. This method is performed by the proposed aquila optimizer optimized mixed polynomial kernel extreme learning machine (AO-MPKELM) algorithm. We conducted a detailed calibration experiment to assess the quality of the generated data and evaluate the performance of the proposed method through ablation analysis. The results demonstrate a high level of consistency between the generated and real data, with a maximum voltage deviation of only 0.71 millivolts. When using a bilinear interpolation algorithm for compensation, extra generated data can help reduce measurement errors by 78.95%, ultimately achieving 0.03% full-scale (FS) accuracy. These findings prove the proposed method is valid for high-accuracy measurements and has superior engineering applicability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The medical profession is facing an excessive workload, which has led to the development of various Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems as well as Mobile-Aid Diagnosis (MAD) systems. These technologies enhance the speed and accuracy of diagnoses, particularly in areas with limited resources or remote regions during the pandemic. The primary purpose of this research is to predict and diagnose COVID-19 infection from chest X-ray images by developing a mobile-friendly deep learning framework, which has the potential for deployment in portable devices such as mobile or tablet, especially in situations where the workload of radiology specialists may be high. Moreover, this could improve the accuracy and transparency of population screening to assist radiologists during the pandemic. METHODS In this study, the Mobile Networks ensemble model called COV-MobNets is proposed to classify positive COVID-19 X-ray images from negative ones and can have an assistant role in diagnosing COVID-19. The proposed model is an ensemble model, combining two lightweight and mobile-friendly models: MobileViT based on transformer structure and MobileNetV3 based on Convolutional Neural Network. Hence, COV-MobNets can extract the features of chest X-ray images in two different methods to achieve better and more accurate results. In addition, data augmentation techniques were applied to the dataset to avoid overfitting during the training process. The COVIDx-CXR-3 benchmark dataset was used for training and evaluation. RESULTS The classification accuracy of the improved MobileViT and MobileNetV3 models on the test set has reached 92.5% and 97%, respectively, while the accuracy of the proposed model (COV-MobNets) has reached 97.75%. The sensitivity and specificity of the proposed model have also reached 98.5% and 97%, respectively. Experimental comparison proves the result is more accurate and balanced than other methods. CONCLUSION The proposed method can distinguish between positive and negative COVID-19 cases more accurately and quickly. The proposed method proves that utilizing two automatic feature extractors with different structures as an overall framework of COVID-19 diagnosis can lead to improved performance, enhanced accuracy, and better generalization to new or unseen data. As a result, the proposed framework in this study can be used as an effective method for computer-aided diagnosis and mobile-aided diagnosis of COVID-19.

Abstract
According to the World Health Organization, millions of infections and a lot of deaths have been recorded worldwide since the emergence of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Since 2020, a lot of computer science researchers have used convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to develop interesting frameworks to detect this disease. However, poor feature extraction from the chest X-ray images and the high computational cost of the available models introduce difficulties for an accurate and fast COVID-19 detection framework. Moreover, poor feature extraction has caused the issue of 'the curse of dimensionality', which will negatively affect the performance of the model. Feature selection is typically considered as a preprocessing mechanism to find an optimal subset of features from a given set of all features in the data mining process. Thus, the major purpose of this study is to offer an accurate and efficient approach for extracting COVID-19 features from chest X-rays that is also less computationally expensive than earlier approaches. To achieve the specified goal, we design a mechanism for feature extraction based on shallow conventional neural network (SCNN) and used an effective method for selecting features by utilizing the newly developed optimization algorithm, Q-Learning Embedded Sine Cosine Algorithm (QLESCA). Support vector machines (SVMs) are used as a classifier. Five publicly available chest X-ray image datasets, consisting of 4848 COVID-19 images and 8669 non-COVID-19 images, are used to train and evaluate the proposed model. The performance of the QLESCA is evaluated against nine recent optimization algorithms. The proposed method is able to achieve the highest accuracy of 97.8086% while reducing the number of features from 100 to 38. Experiments prove that the accuracy of the model improves with the usage of the QLESCA as the dimensionality reduction technique by selecting relevant features. Graphical abstract

Abstract
The aquila optimization algorithm (AO) is an efficient swarm intelligence algorithm proposed recently. However, considering that AO has better performance and slower late convergence speed in the optimization process. For solving this effect of AO and improving its performance, this paper proposes an enhanced aquila optimization algorithm with a velocity-aided global search mechanism and adaptive opposition-based learning (VAIAO) which is based on AO and simplified Aquila optimization algorithm (IAO). In VAIAO, the velocity and acceleration terms are set and included in the update formula. Furthermore, an adaptive opposition-based learning strategy is introduced to improve local optima. To verify the performance of the proposed VAIAO, 27 classical benchmark functions, the Wilcoxon statistical sign-rank experiment, the Friedman test and five engineering optimization problems are tested. The results of the experiment show that the proposed VAIAO has better performance than AO, IAO and other comparison algorithms. This also means the introduction of these two strategies enhances the global exploration ability and convergence speed of the algorithm.

Abstract
Recently, the Covid-19 pandemic has affected several lives of people globally, and there is a need for a massive number of screening tests to diagnose the existence of coronavirus. For the medical specialist, detecting COVID-19 cases is a difficult task. There is a need for fast, cheap and accurate diagnostic tools. The chest X-ray and the computerized tomography (CT) play a significant role in the COVID-19 diagnosis. The advancement of deep learning (DL) approaches helps to introduce a COVID diagnosis system to achieve maximum detection rate with minimum time complexity. This research proposed a discrete wavelet optimized network model for COVID-19 diagnosis and feature extraction to overcome these problems. It consists of three stages pre-processing, feature extraction and classification. The raw images are filtered in the pre-processing phase to eliminate unnecessary noises and improve the image quality using the MMG hybrid filtering technique. The next phase is feature extraction, in this stage, the features are extracted, and the dimensionality of the features is diminished with the aid of a modified discrete wavelet based Mobile Net model. The third stage is the classification here, the convolutional Aquila COVID detection network model is developed to classify normal and COVID-19 positive cases from the collected images of the COVID-CT and chest X-ray dataset. Finally, the performance of the proposed model is compared with some of the existing models in terms of accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, precision, f-score, negative predictive value (NPV) and positive predictive value (PPV), respectively. The proposed model achieves the performance of 99%, 100%, 98.5%, and 99.5% for the CT dataset, and the accomplished accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, and precision values of the proposed model for the X-ray dataset are 98%, 99%, 98% and 97% respectively. In addition, the statistical and cross validation analysis is conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed model.

Abstract
The Aquila Optimizer (AO) is a new bio-inspired meta-heuristic algorithm inspired by Aquila's hunting behavior. Adaptive Aquila Optimizer Combining Niche Thought with Dispersed Chaotic Swarm (NCAAO) is proposed to address the problem that although the Aquila Optimizer (AO) has a strong global exploration capability, it has an insufficient local exploitation capability and a slow convergence rate. First, to improve the diversity of populations in the algorithm and the uniformity of distribution in the search space, DLCS chaotic mapping is used to generate the initial populations so that the algorithm is in a better exploration state. Then, to improve the search accuracy of the algorithm, an adaptive adjustment strategy of de-searching preferences is proposed. The exploration and development phases of the NCAAO algorithm are effectively balanced by changing the search threshold and introducing the position weight parameter to adaptively adjust the search process. Finally, the idea of small habitats is effectively used to promote the exchange of information between groups and accelerate the rapid convergence of groups to the optimal solution. To verify the optimization performance of the NCAAO algorithm, the improved algorithm was tested on 15 standard benchmark functions, the Wilcoxon rank sum test, and engineering optimization problems to test the optimization-seeking ability of the improved algorithm. The experimental results show that the NCAAO algorithm has better search performance and faster convergence speed compared with other intelligent algorithms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Line-field confocal optical coherence tomography (LC-OCT) is an imaging technique providing non-invasive "optical biopsies" with an isotropic spatial resolution of ∼1 μm and deep penetration until the dermis. Analysis of obtained images is classically performed by experts, thus requiring long and fastidious training and giving operator-dependent results. In this study, the objective was to develop a new automated method to score the quality of the dermal matrix precisely, quickly, and directly from in vivo LC-OCT images. Once validated, this new automated method was applied to assess photo-aging-related changes in the quality of the dermal matrix. MATERIALS AND METHODS LC-OCT measurements were conducted on the face of 57 healthy Caucasian volunteers. The quality of the dermal matrix was scored by experts trained to evaluate the fibers' state according to four grades. In parallel, these images were used to develop the deep learning model by adapting a MobileNetv3-Small architecture. Once validated, this model was applied to the study of dermal matrix changes on a panel of 36 healthy Caucasian females, divided into three groups according to their age and photo-exposition. RESULTS The deep learning model was trained and tested on a set of 15 993 images. Calculated on the test data set, the accuracy score was 0.83. As expected, when applied to different volunteer groups, the model shows greater and deeper alteration of the dermal matrix for old and photoexposed subjects. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, we have developed a new method that automatically scores the quality of the dermal matrix on in vivo LC-OCT images. This accurate model could be used for further investigations, both in the dermatological and cosmetic fields.

Abstract
In order to cope with the rapid growth of flights and limited crew members, the rational allocation of crew members is a strategy to greatly alleviate scarcity. However, if there is no appropriate allocation plan, some flights may be canceled because there is no pilot in the scheduling period. In this paper, we solved an airline crew rostering problem (CRP). We model the CRP as an integer programming model with multiple constraints and objectives. In this model, the schedule of pilots takes into account qualification restrictions and language restrictions, while maximizing the fairness and satisfaction of pilots. We propose the design of two hybrid metaheuristic algorithms based on a genetic algorithm, variable neighborhood search algorithm and the Aquila optimizer to face the trade-off between fairness and crew satisfaction. The simulation results show that our approach preserves the fairness of the system and maximizes the fairness at the cost of crew satisfaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND COVID-19 is the most dangerous virus, and its accurate diagnosis saves lives and slows its spread. However, COVID-19 diagnosis takes time and requires trained professionals. Therefore, developing a deep learning (DL) model on low-radiated imaging modalities like chest X-rays (CXRs) is needed. OBJECTIVE The existing DL models failed to diagnose COVID-19 and other lung diseases accurately. This study implements a multi-class CXR segmentation and classification network (MCSC-Net) to detect COVID-19 using CXR images. METHODS Initially, a hybrid median bilateral filter (HMBF) is applied to CXR images to reduce image noise and enhance the COVID-19 infected regions. Then, a skip connection-based residual network-50 (SC-ResNet50) is used to segment (localize) COVID-19 regions. The features from CXRs are further extracted using a robust feature neural network (RFNN). Since the initial features contain joint COVID-19, normal, pneumonia bacterial, and viral properties, the conventional methods fail to separate the class of each disease-based feature. To extract the distinct features of each class, RFNN includes a disease-specific feature separate attention mechanism (DSFSAM). Furthermore, the hunting nature of the Hybrid whale optimization algorithm (HWOA) is used to select the best features in each class. Finally, the deep-Q-neural network (DQNN) classifies CXRs into multiple disease classes. RESULTS The proposed MCSC-Net shows the enhanced accuracy of 99.09% for 2-class, 99.16% for 3-class, and 99.25% for 4-class classification of CXR images compared to other state-of-art approaches. CONCLUSION The proposed MCSC-Net enables to conduct multi-class segmentation and classification tasks applying to CXR images with high accuracy. Thus, together with gold-standard clinical and laboratory tests, this new method is promising to be used in future clinical practice to evaluate patients.

Abstract
The Internet of Things is widely used, which results in the collection of enormous amounts of data with numerous redundant, irrelevant, and noisy features. In addition, many of these features need to be managed. Consequently, developing an effective feature selection (FS) strategy becomes a difficult goal. Many FS techniques, based on bioinspired metaheuristic methods, have been developed to tackle this problem. However, these methods still suffer from limitations; so, in this paper, we developed an alternative FS technique, based on integrating operators of the chameleon swarm algorithm (Cham) with the quantum-based optimization (QBO) technique. With the use of eighteen datasets from various real-world applications, we proposed that QCham is investigated and compared to well-known FS methods. The comparisons demonstrate the benefits of including a QBO operator in the Cham because the proposed QCham can efficiently and accurately detect the most crucial features. Whereas the QCham achieves nearly 92.6%, with CPU time(s) nearly 1.7 overall the tested datasets. This indicates the advantages of QCham among comparative algorithms and high efficiency of integrating the QBO with the operators of Cham algorithm that used to enhance the process of balancing between exploration and exploitation.

Abstract
This paper presents a system for medical image diagnosis that uses transfer learning (TL) and feature selection techniques. The main aim of TL on pre-trained models such as MobileNetV3 is to extract features from raw images. Here, a novel feature selection optimization algorithm called the Artificial Hummingbird Algorithm based on Aquila Optimization (AHA-AO) is proposed. The AHA-AO is used to select only the most relevant features and ensure the improvement of the overall model classification. Our methodology was evaluated using four datasets, namely, ISIC-2016, PH2, Chest-XRay, and Blood-Cell. We compared the proposed feature selection algorithm with five of the most popular feature selection optimization algorithms. We obtained an accuracy of 87.30% for the ISIC-2016 dataset, 97.50% for the PH2 dataset, 86.90% for the Chest-XRay dataset, and 88.60% for the Blood-cell dataset. The AHA-AO outperformed the other optimization techniques. Moreover, the developed AHA-AO was faster than the other feature selection models during the process of determining the relevant features. The proposed feature selection algorithm successfully improved the performance and the speed of the overall deep learning models.

Abstract
The Aquila optimizer (AO) is a recently developed swarm algorithm that simulates the hunting behavior of Aquila birds. In complex optimization problems, an AO may have slow convergence or fall in sub-optimal regions, especially in high complex ones. This paper tries to overcome these problems by using three different strategies: restart strategy, opposition-based learning and chaotic local search. The developed algorithm named as mAO was tested using 29 CEC 2017 functions and five different engineering constrained problems. The results prove the superiority and efficiency of mAO in solving many optimization issues.

Abstract
Microarray data classification is one of the hottest issues in the field of bioinformatics due to its efficiency in diagnosing patients' ailments. But the difficulty is that microarrays possess a huge number of genes where the majority of which are redundant or irrelevant resulting in the deterioration of classification accuracy. For this issue, mutated binary Aquila Optimizer (MBAO) with a time-varying mirrored S-shaped (TVMS) transfer function is proposed as a new wrapper gene (or feature) selection method to find the optimal subset of informative genes. The suggested hybrid method utilizes Minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance (mRMR) as a filtering approach to choose top-ranked genes in the first stage and then uses MBAO-TVMS as an efficient wrapper approach to identify the most discriminative genes in the second stage. TVMS is adopted to transform the continuous version of Aquila Optimizer (AO) to binary one and a mutation mechanism is incorporated into binary AO to aid the algorithm to escape local optima and improve its global search capabilities. The suggested method was tested on eleven well-known benchmark microarray datasets and compared to other current state-of-the-art methods. Based on the obtained results, mRMR-MBAO confirms its superiority over the mRMR-BAO algorithm and the other comparative GS approaches on the majority of the medical datasets strategies in terms of classification accuracy and the number of selected genes. R codes of MBAO are available at https://github.com/el-pashaei/MBAO.

Abstract
Since no single algorithm can provide the optimal solutions for all problems, new metaheuristic methods are always being proposed or developed by combining current algorithms or creating adaptable versions. Metaheuristic methods should have a balanced exploitation and exploration stages. One of these two talents may be sufficient in some metaheuristic methods, while the other may be insufficient. By integrating the strengths of the two algorithms and hybridizing them, a more efficient algorithm can be formed. In this paper, the Aquila optimizer-tangent search algorithm (AO-TSA) is proposed as a new hybrid approach that uses the intensification stage of the tangent search algorithm (TSA) instead of the limited exploration stage to improve the Aquila optimizer's exploitation capabilities (AO). In addition, the local minimum escape stage of TSA is applied in AO-TSA to avoid the local minimum stagnation problem. The performance of AO-TSA is compared with other current metaheuristic algorithms using a total of twenty-one benchmark functions consisting of six unimodal, six multimodal, six fixed-dimension multimodal, and three modern CEC 2019 benchmark functions according to different metrics. Furthermore, two real engineering design problems are also used for performance comparison. Sensitivity analysis and statistical test analysis are also performed. Experimental results show that hybrid AO-TSA gives promising results and seems an effective method for global solution search and optimization problems.

Abstract
Rapid diagnosis of the Covid-19 disease is the best way to prevent infection. In this paper, it is proposed to use machine learning methods to aid diagnoses quickly Covid-19 and focused on effect of several features on classification accuracy. In the proposed method 746 axial computed tomography (CT) images of the lung; 349 Covid-19 (positives) and 397 non-Covid-19 (negative) are used. Gray-level texture, shape and first order statistical features were extracted from the images. The feature vector for model training is constructed with one feature group or combination of more than one group. We then classified with Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, k-nearest neighbor and XGBoost classifier models. The hyperparameter of the models were controlled by the tuning test. Experimental results obtained with 10-fold cross-validation. The results of cross-validation verified with the additionally independent test. The best overall accuracy was 98.65% with first order statistics features classified with XGBoost. In the gray level features, the best individual results given by GLSZM as 81.25%, and the best combination result is with GLDM, GLRLM and GLSZM features as 85.52%. An important finding of this paper is that, for Covid-19 classification, the shape and first order statistics features are more valuable than gray level features. The proposed results compared with the literature studies under some Covid-19 dataset for accuracy, precision, sensitivity and F1-score metrics. Also, the literature studies which used the different Covid-19 dataset were compared with the proposed study. Our results have the significant superiority when compared with the literature studies.

Abstract
This study proposes a novel framework to improve intrusion detection system (IDS) performance based on the data collected from the Internet of things (IoT) environments. The developed framework relies on deep learning and metaheuristic (MH) optimization algorithms to perform feature extraction and selection. A simple yet effective convolutional neural network (CNN) is implemented as the core feature extractor of the framework to learn better and more relevant representations of the input data in a lower-dimensional space. A new feature selection mechanism is proposed based on a recently developed MH method, called Reptile Search Algorithm (RSA), which is inspired by the hunting behaviors of the crocodiles. The RSA boosts the IDS system performance by selecting only the most important features (an optimal subset of features) from the extracted features using the CNN model. Several datasets, including KDDCup-99, NSL-KDD, CICIDS-2017, and BoT-IoT, were used to assess the IDS system performance. The proposed framework achieved competitive performance in classification metrics compared to other well-known optimization methods applied for feature selection problems.

Abstract
Swarm intelligence-based metaheuristic algorithms have attracted the attention of the research community and have been exploited for effectively solving different optimization problems of engineering, science, and technology. This paper considers the parameter estimation of the control autoregressive (CAR) model by applying a novel swarm intelligence-based optimization algorithm called the Aquila optimizer (AO). The parameter tuning of AO is performed statistically on different generations and population sizes. The performance of the AO is investigated statistically in various noise levels for the parameters with the best tuning. The robustness and reliability of the AO are carefully examined under various scenarios for CAR identification. The experimental results indicate that the AO is accurate, convergent, and robust for parameter estimation of CAR systems. The comparison of the AO heuristics with recent state of the art counterparts through nonparametric statistical tests established the efficacy of the proposed scheme for CAR estimation.

Abstract
Chest X-ray (CXR) is becoming a useful method in the evaluation of coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). Despite the global spread of COVID-19, utilizing a computer-aided diagnosis approach for COVID-19 classification based on CXR images could significantly reduce the clinician burden. There is no doubt that low resolution, noise and irrelevant annotations in chest X-ray images are a major constraint to the performance of AI-based COVID-19 diagnosis. While a few studies have made huge progress, they underestimate these bottlenecks. In this study, we propose a super-resolution-based Siamese wavelet multi-resolution convolutional neural network called COVID-SRWCNN for COVID-19 classification using chest X-ray images. Concretely, we first reconstruct high-resolution (HR) counterparts from low-resolution (LR) CXR images in order to enhance the quality of the dataset for improved performance of our model by proposing a novel enhanced fast super-resolution convolutional neural network (EFSRCNN) to capture texture details in each given chest X-ray image. Exploiting a mutual learning approach, the HR images are passed to the proposed Siamese wavelet multi-resolution convolutional neural network to learn the high-level features for COVID-19 classification. We validate the proposed COVID-SRWCNN model on public-source datasets, achieving accuracy of 98.98%. Our screening technique achieves 98.96% AUC, 99.78% sensitivity, 98.53% precision, and 98.86% specificity. Owing to the fact that COVID-19 chest X-ray datasets are low in quality, experimental results show that our proposed algorithm obtains up-to-date performance that is useful for COVID-19 screening.

Abstract
Multilevel Thresholding (MLT) is considered as a significant and imperative research field in image segmentation that can efficiently resolve difficulties aroused while analyzing the segmented regions of multifaceted images with complicated nonlinear conditions. MLT being a simple exponential combinatorial optimization problem is commonly phrased by means of a sophisticated objective function requirement that can only be addressed by nondeterministic approaches. Consequently, researchers are engaging Nature-Inspired Optimization Algorithms (NIOA) as an alternate methodology that can be widely employed for resolving problems related to MLT. This paper delivers an acquainted review related to novel NIOA shaped lately in last three years (2019-2021) highlighting and exploring the major challenges encountered during the development of image multi-thresholding models based on NIOA.

Abstract
Developing cyber security is very necessary and has attracted considerable attention from academy and industry organizations worldwide. It is also very necessary to provide sustainable computing for the the Internet of Things (IoT). Machine learning techniques play a vital role in the cybersecurity of the IoT for intrusion detection and malicious identification. Thus, in this study, we develop new feature extraction and selection methods and for the IDS system using the advantages of the swarm intelligence (SI) algorithms. We design a feature extraction mechanism depending on the conventional neural networks (CNN). After that, we present an alternative feature selection (FS) approach using the recently developed SI algorithm, Aquila optimizer (AQU). Moreover, to assess the quality of the developed IDS approach, four well-known public datasets, CIC2017, NSL-KDD, BoT-IoT, and KDD99, were used. We also considered extensive comparisons to other optimization methods to verify the competitive performance of the developed method. The results show the high performance of the developed approach using different evaluation indicators.

Abstract
Moth–flame optimization (MFO) is a prominent swarm intelligence algorithm that demonstrates sufficient efficiency in tackling various optimization tasks. However, MFO cannot provide competitive results for complex optimization problems. The algorithm sinks into the local optimum due to the rapid dropping of population diversity and poor exploration. Hence, in this article, a migration-based moth–flame optimization (M-MFO) algorithm is proposed to address the mentioned issues. In M-MFO, the main focus is on improving the position of unlucky moths by migrating them stochastically in the early iterations using a random migration (RM) operator, maintaining the solution diversification by storing new qualified solutions separately in a guiding archive, and, finally, exploiting around the positions saved in the guiding archive using a guided migration (GM) operator. The dimensionally aware switch between these two operators guarantees the convergence of the population toward the promising zones. The proposed M-MFO was evaluated on the CEC 2018 benchmark suite on dimension 30 and compared against seven well-known variants of MFO, including LMFO, WCMFO, CMFO, CLSGMFO, LGCMFO, SMFO, and ODSFMFO. Then, the top four latest high-performing variants were considered for the main experiments with different dimensions, 30, 50, and 100. The experimental evaluations proved that the M-MFO provides sufficient exploration ability and population diversity maintenance by employing migration strategy and guiding archive. In addition, the statistical results analyzed by the Friedman test proved that the M-MFO demonstrates competitive performance compared to the contender algorithms used in the experiments.
