Abstract
This paper presents a comprehensive exploration of a hybrid energy system that integrates wind turbines with photovoltaics (PVs) to address the intermittent nature of electricity production from these sources. The necessity for such technology arises from the sporadic nature of electricity generated by PV cells and wind turbines. The envisioned outcome is an emissions-free, more efficient alternative to traditional energy sources. A variety of optimization techniques are utilized, specifically the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm and Electric Eel Foraging Optimization (EEFO), to achieve optimal power regulation and seamless integration with the public grid, as well as to mitigate anticipated loading issues. The employed mathematical modeling and simulation techniques are used to assess the effectiveness of EEFO in optimizing the operation of grid-connected PV and wind turbine hybrid systems. In this paper, the optimization methods applied to the system's architecture are described in detail, providing a clear understanding of the intricate nature of the approach. The efficacy of these optimization strategies is rigorously evaluated through simulations of diverse operating scenarios using MATLAB/SIMULINK. The results demonstrate that the proposed optimization strategies are not only capable of precisely and swiftly compensating for linked loads, but also effectively controlling the energy supply to maintain the load's power at the desired level. The findings underscore the potential of this hybrid energy system to offer a sustainable and reliable solution for meeting power demands, contributing to the advancement of clean and efficient energy technologies. The results demonstrate the capability of the proposed approach to improve system performance, maximize energy yield, and enhance grid integration, thereby contributing to the advancement of renewable energy technologies and sustainable energy systems.

Abstract
The increase in air pollutants and its adverse effects on human health and the environment has raised significant concerns. This implies the necessity of predicting air pollutant levels. Numerous studies have aimed to provide new models for more accurate prediction of air pollutants such as CO2, O3, and PM2.5. Most of the models used in the literature are deep learning models with Transformers being the best for time series prediction. However, there is still a need to enhance accuracy in air pollution prediction using Transformers. Alongside the need for increased accuracy, there is a significant demand for predicting a broader spectrum of air pollutants. To encounter this challenge, this paper proposes a new hybrid deep learning-based Informer model called "Gelato" for multivariate air pollution prediction. Gelato takes a leap forward by taking several air pollutants into consideration simultaneously. Besides introducing new changes to the Informer structure as the base model, Gelato utilizes Particle Swarm Optimization for hyperparameter optimization. Moreover, XGBoost is used at the final stage to achieve minimal errors. Applying the proposed model on a dataset containing eight important air pollutants, including CO2, O3, NO, NO2, SO2, PM10, NH3, and PM2.5, the Gelato performance is assessed. Comparing the results of Gelato with other models shows Gelato's superiority over them, proving it is a high-confidence model for multivariate air pollution prediction.

Abstract
Breast cancer is considered one of the most-common types of cancers among females in the world, with a high mortality rate. Medical imaging is still one of the most-reliable tools to detect breast cancer. Unfortunately, manual image detection takes much time. This paper proposes a new deep learning method based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Convolutional Neural Networks are widely used for image classification. However, the determination process for accurate hyperparameters and architectures is still a challenging task. In this work, a highly accurate CNN model to detect breast cancer by mammography was developed. The proposed method is based on the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm in order to look for suitable hyperparameters and the architecture for the CNN model. The CNN model using PSO achieved success rates of 98.23% and 97.98% on the DDSM and MIAS datasets, respectively. The experimental results proved that the proposed CNN model gave the best accuracy values in comparison with other studies in the field. As a result, CNN models for mammography classification can now be created automatically. The proposed method can be considered as a powerful technique for breast cancer prediction.

Abstract
As healthcare data becomes increasingly available from various sources, including clinical institutions, patients, insurance companies, and pharmaceutical industries, machine learning (ML) services are becoming more significant in healthcare-facing domains. Therefore, it is imperative to ensure the integrity and reliability of ML models to maintain the quality of healthcare services. Particularly due to the growing need for privacy and security, healthcare data has resulted in each Internet of Things (IoT) device being treated as an independent source of data, isolated from other devices. Moreover, the limited computational and communication capabilities of wearable healthcare devices hinder the applicability of traditional ML. Federated Learning (FL) is a paradigm that maintains data privacy by storing only learned models on a server and advances with data from scattered clients, making it ideal for healthcare applications where patient data must be safeguarded. The potential of FL to transform healthcare is significant, as it can enable the development of new ML-powered applications that can enhance the quality of care, lower costs, and improve patient outcomes. However, the accuracy of current Federated Learning aggregation methods suffers greatly in unstable network situations due to the high volume of weights transmitted and received. To address this issue, we propose an alternative approach to Federated Average (FedAvg) that updates the global model by gathering score values from learned models primarily utilized in Federated Learning, using an improved version of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) called FedImpPSO. This approach boosts the robustness of the algorithm in erratic network conditions. To further enhance the speed and efficiency of data exchange within a network, we modify the format of the data clients send to servers using the FedImpPSO method. The proposed approach is evaluated using the CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 datasets and a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). We found that it yielded an average accuracy improvement of 8.14% over FedAvg and 2.5% over Federated PSO (FedPSO). This study evaluates the use of FedImpPSO in healthcare by training a deep-learning model over two case studies to evaluate the effectiveness of our approach in healthcare. The first case study involves the classification of COVID-19 using public datasets (Ultrasound and X-ray) and achieved an F1-measure of 77.90% and 92.16%, respectively. The second case study was conducted over the cardiovascular dataset, where our proposed FedImpPSO achieves 91.18% and 92% accuracy in predicting the existence of heart diseases. As a result, our approach demonstrates the effectiveness of using FedImpPSO to improve the accuracy and robustness of Federated Learning in unstable network conditions and has potential applications in healthcare and other domains where data privacy is critical.

Abstract
Open or short-circuit faults, as well as discrete parameter faults, are the most commonly used models in the simulation prior to testing methodology. However, since analog circuits exhibit continuous responses to input signals, faults in specific circuit elements may not fully capture all potential component faults. Consequently, diagnosing faults in analog circuits requires three key aspects: identifying faulty components, determining faulty element values, and considering circuit tolerance constraints. To tackle this problem, a methodology is proposed and implemented for fault diagnosis using swarm intelligence. The investigated optimization techniques are Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and the Bat Algorithm (BA). In this methodology, the nonlinear equations of the tested circuit are employed to calculate its parameters. The primary objective is to identify the specific circuit component that could potentially exhibit the fault by comparing the responses obtained from the actual circuit and the responses obtained through the optimization process. Two circuits are used as case studies to evaluate the performance of the proposed methodologies: the Tow-Thomas Biquad filter (case study 1) and the Butterworth filter (case study 2). The proposed methodologies are able to identify or at least reduce the number of possible faulty components. Four main performance metrics are extracted: accuracy, precision, sensitivity, and specificity. The BA technique demonstrates superior performance by utilizing the maximum combination of accessible nodes in the tested circuit, with an average accuracy of 95.5%, while PSO achieved only 93.9%. Additionally, the BA technique outperforms in terms of execution time, with an average time reduction of 7.95% reduction for the faultless circuit and an 8.12% reduction for the faulty cases. Compared to the machine-learning-based approach, using BA with the proposed methodology achieves similar accuracy rates but does not require any datasets nor any time-demanding training to proceed with circuit diagnostic.

Abstract
Microarray gene expression-based detection and classification of medical conditions have been prominent in research studies over the past few decades. However, extracting relevant data from the high-volume microarray gene expression with inherent nonlinearity and inseparable noise components raises significant challenges during data classification and disease detection. The dataset used for the research is the Lung Harvard 2 Dataset (LH2) which consists of 150 Adenocarcinoma subjects and 31 Mesothelioma subjects. The paper proposes a two-level strategy involving feature extraction and selection methods before the classification step. The feature extraction step utilizes Short Term Fourier Transform (STFT), and the feature selection step employs Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Harmonic Search (HS) metaheuristic methods. The classifiers employed are Nonlinear Regression, Gaussian Mixture Model, Softmax Discriminant, Naive Bayes, SVM (Linear), SVM (Polynomial), and SVM (RBF). The two-level extracted relevant features are compared with raw data classification results, including Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) methodology. Among the methods, STFT with PSO feature selection and SVM (RBF) classifier produced the highest accuracy of 94.47%.

Abstract
Researchers have adapted the conventional deep learning classification networks to generate Fully Conventional Networks (FCN) for carrying out accurate semantic segmentation. However, such models are expensive both in terms of storage and inference time and not readily employable on edge devices. In this paper, a compressed version of VGG16-based Fully Convolution Network (FCN) has been developed using Particle Swarm Optimization. It has been shown that the developed model can offer tremendous saving in storage space and also faster inference time, and can be implemented on edge devices. The efficacy of the proposed approach has been tested using potato late blight leaf images from publicly available PlantVillage dataset, street scene image dataset and lungs X-Ray dataset and it has been shown that it approaches the accuracies offered by standard FCN even after 851× compression.

Abstract
In this paper, we investigate a novel physician scheduling problem in the Mobile Cabin Hospitals (MCH) which are constructed in Wuhan, China during the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic. The shortage of physicians and the surge of patients brought great challenges for physicians scheduling in MCH. The purpose of the studied problem is to get an approximately optimal schedule that reaches the minimum workload for physicians on the premise of satisfying the service requirements of patients as much as possible. We propose a novel hybrid algorithm integrating particle swarm optimization (PSO) and variable neighborhood descent (VND) (named as PSO-VND) to find the approximate global optimal solution. A self-adaptive mechanism is developed to choose the updating operators dynamically during the procedures. Based on the special features of the problem, three neighborhood structures are designed and searched in VND to improve the solution. The experimental comparisons show that the proposed PSO-VND has a significant performance increase than the other competitors.

Abstract
A novel technique to building an adaptable fuzzy model predictive control (AFMPC) is suggested in this study, based on the algorithm Particle Swarm Optimization-Cuckoo Search (PSOCS). This technique combines the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm's iterative scheme with the Cuckoo Search (CS) algorithm's searching approach. To identify the system parameters at each time step, an on-line adaptive fuzzy identification is used. Based on a predictive technique, these factors are utilized to generate the goal function. The PSOCS method is then used to solve the optimization issue and select the best control signal. The suggested controller's utility is demonstrated using an experimental communicating three-tank system, in which the proposed approach-based PSOCS algorithm outperforms both the approach-based CS and the approach-based PSO algorithms.

Abstract
The Cyclic Alternating Pattern (CAP) is a periodic activity detected in the electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. This pattern was identified as a marker of unstable sleep with several possible clinical applications; however, there is a need to develop automatic methodologies to facilitate real-world applications based on CAP assessment. Therefore, a deep learning-based EEG channels' feature level fusion was proposed in this work and employed for the CAP A phase classification. Two optimization algorithms optimized the channel selection, fusion, and classification procedures. The developed methodologies were evaluated by fusing the information from multiple EEG channels for patients with nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy and patients without neurological disorders. Results showed that both optimization algorithms selected a comparable structure with similar feature level fusion, consisting of three electroencephalogram channels (Fp2-F4, C4-A1, F4-C4), which is in line with the CAP protocol to ensure multiple channels' arousals for CAP detection. Moreover, the two optimized models reached an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.82, with average accuracy ranging from 77% to 79%, a result in the upper range of the specialist agreement and best state-of-the-art works, despite a challenging dataset. The proposed methodology also has the advantage of providing a fully automatic analysis without requiring any manual procedure. Ultimately, the models were revealed to be noise-resistant and resilient to multiple channel loss, being thus suitable for real-world application.

Abstract
In the development of targeted drugs, anticancer peptides (ACPs) have attracted great attention because of their high selectivity, low toxicity and minimal non-specificity. In this work, we report a framework of ACPs generation, which combines Wasserstein autoencoder (WAE) generative model and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) forward search algorithm guided by attribute predictive model to generate ACPs with desired properties. It is well known that generative models based on Variational AutoEncoder (VAE) and Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) are difficult to be used for de novo design due to the problems of posterior collapse and difficult convergence of training. Our WAE-based generative model trains more successfully (lower perplexity and reconstruction loss) than both VAE and GAN-based generative models, and the semantic connections in the latent space of WAE accelerate the process of forward controlled generation of PSO, while VAE fails to capture this feature. Finally, we validated our pipeline on breast cancer targets (HIF-1) and lung cancer targets (VEGR, ErbB2), respectively. By peptide-protein docking, we found candidate compounds with the same binding sites as the peptides carried in the crystal structure but with higher binding affinity and novel structures, which may be potent antagonists that interfere with these target-mediated signaling.

Abstract
Air quality has a tremendous impact on India's health and prosperity. Air quality models are crucial tools for surveying and projecting air pollution episodes, which can be used to issue health advisories to take action ahead of time. Short-term increases in air pollution trigger many adverse health events; a fast, efficient, cost-effective, and reliable air quality prediction model would aid in minimizing the effect on health and prosperity. Deterministic models, on the other hand, are less robust in predicting the pollutant series since it is non-stationary and non-linear. Atmospheric chemistry models are computationally expensive and often rely on outdated emissions information. We propose a deep learning model in this study that integrates neural networks, fuzzy inference systems, and wavelet transforms to predict the most prominent air pollutant affecting Delhi, India i.e., PM2.5 (particulate matter of aerodynamic diameter less than or equal to 2.5 µm). We have included the main aspects of air quality models in this research i.e., less computational time (7 min approximately using I5-1035G1, 1.19 GHz processor), less resource-intensive (dependent only on the pollutant lagged values), and high spatial resolution (1 km) for forecasting air quality three days ahead. The model predictions show a significant correlation coefficient lying in [0.96,0.98], [0.86,0.93], and [0.82,0.91] with Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) monitored data at various sites in Delhi for one, two, and three days of forecast respectively.

Abstract
The working environment of rotating machines is complex, and their key components are prone to failure. The early fault diagnosis of rolling bearings is of great significance; however, extracting the single scale fault feature of the early weak fault of rolling bearings is not enough to fully characterize the fault feature information of a weak signal. Therefore, aiming at the problem that the early fault feature information of rolling bearings in a complex environment is weak and the important parameters of Variational Modal Decomposition (VMD) depend on engineering experience, a fault feature extraction method based on the combination of Adaptive Variational Modal Decomposition (AVMD) and optimized Multiscale Fuzzy Entropy (MFE) is proposed in this study. Firstly, the correlation coefficient is used to calculate the correlation between the modal components decomposed by VMD and the original signal, and the threshold of the correlation coefficient is set to optimize the selection of the modal number K. Secondly, taking Skewness (Ske) as the objective function, the parameters of MFE embedding dimension M, scale factor S and time delay T are optimized by the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm. Using optimized MFE to calculate the modal components obtained by AVMD, the MFE feature vector of each frequency band is obtained, and the MFE feature set is constructed. Finally, the simulation signals are used to verify the effectiveness of the Adaptive Variational Modal Decomposition, and the Drivetrain Dynamics Simulator (DDS) are used to complete the comparison test between the proposed method and the traditional method. The experimental results show that this method can effectively extract the fault features of rolling bearings in multiple frequency bands, characterize more weak fault information, and has higher fault diagnosis accuracy.

Abstract
Cryptography protects privacy and confidentiality. So, it is necessary to guarantee that the ciphers used are secure and cryptanalysis-resistant. In this paper, a new state recovery attack against the RC4 stream cipher is revealed. A plaintext attack is used in which the attacker has both the plaintext and the ciphertext, so they can calculate the keystream and reveal the cipher’s internal state. To increase the quality of answers to practical and recent real-world global optimization difficulties, researchers are increasingly combining two or more variations. PSO and EO are combined in a hybrid PSOEO in an uncertain environment. We may also convert this method to its binary form to cryptanalyze the internal state of the RC4 cipher. When solving the cryptanalysis issue with HBPSOEO, we discover that it is more accurate and quicker than utilizing both PSO and EO independently. Experiments reveal that our proposed fitness function, in combination with HBPSOEO, requires checking 104 possible internal states; however, brute force attacks require checking 2128 states.

Abstract
The complex and non-linear nature of material properties evolution during 3D printing continues to make experimental optimization of Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) costly, thus entailing the development of mathematical predictive models. This paper proposes a two-stage methodology based on coupling limited data experiments with black-box AI modeling and then performing heuristic optimization, to enhance the viscoelastic properties of FDM processed acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). The effect of selected process parameters (including nozzle temperature, layer height, raster orientation and deposition speed) as well as their combinative effects are also studied. Specifically, in the first step, a Taguchi orthogonal array was employed to design the Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) experiments with a minimal number of runs, while considering different working conditions (temperatures) of the final prints. The significance of process parameters was measured using Lenth’s statistical method. Combinative effects of FDM parameters were noted to be highly nonlinear and complex. Next, artificial neural networks were trained to predict both the storage and loss moduli of the 3D printed samples, and consequently, the process parameters were optimized via Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The optimized process of the prints showed overall a closer behavior to that of the parent (unprocessed) ABS, when compared to the unoptimized set-up.

Abstract
Deep Neural Networks (DNN) form a powerful deep learning model that can process unprecedented volumes of data. The hyperparameters of DNN have a significant influence on its prediction performance. Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) form a heuristic-based approach that provides an opportunity to optimize deep learning models to obtain good performance. Therefore, we propose an evolutionary deep learning model called IPSO-DNN based on DNN for prediction and an improved Particle Swarm Optimization (IPSO) algorithm to optimize the kernel hyperparameters of DNN in a self-adaptive evolutionary way. In the IPSO algorithm, a micro population size setting is introduced to improve the search efficiency of the algorithm, and the generalized opposition-based learning strategy is used to guide the population evolution. In addition, the IPSO algorithm employs a self-adaptive update strategy to prevent premature convergence and then improves the exploitation and exploration parameter optimization performance of DNN. In this paper, we show that the IPSO algorithm provides an efficient approach for tuning the hyperparameters of DNN with saving valuable computational resources. We explore the proposed IPSO-DNN model to predict the effect of social distancing on the spread of COVID-19 based on the social distancing metrics. The preliminary experimental results reveal that the proposed IPSO-DNN model has the least computation cost and yields better prediction accuracy results when compared to the other models. The experiments of the IPSO-DNN model also illustrate that aggressive and extensive social distancing interventions are crucial to help flatten the COVID-19 epidemic curve in the United States.

Abstract
Corona Virus Disease (COVID) 19 has shaken the earth at its root and the devastation has increased the diagnostic burden of radiologists by large. At this crucial juncture, Artificial Intelligence (AI) will go a long way in decreasing the workload of physicians working in the outbreak zone, aiding them to accurately diagnose the new disease. In this work, a hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization–Support Vector Machine based AI algorithm is deployed to analyze the Computed Tomography images automatically providing a high probability in determining the presence of pneumonia due to COVID19. This paper presents a model for training the system to segregate and classify the presence of pneumonia which will in turn save around 50% of the time frame for physicians. This will be especially useful in places of outbreaks where a team of people are working together with the aid of artificial intelligence and/or medical background. The AI incorporated system was distributed in all areas of across the globe. It has been observed that challenges such as data security, testing time effectiveness of model, data discrepancy etc. were positively handled using the deployed system. Moreover, since the AI integrated system identifies the infected patients immediately physicians can confirm the infection and segregate the patients at the right period. A total of 200 training cases have been observed of which 150 were identified to be infected. The proposed work shows specificity of 0.85, a sensitivity of 0.956 and an accuracy of 95.78%.

Abstract
It is very common for natural or synthetic materials to be characterized by a periodic or quasi-periodic micro-structure. This micro-structure, under the different loading conditions may play an important role on the apparent, macroscopic behaviour of the material. Although, fine, detailed information can be implemented at the micro-structure level, it still remains a challenging task to obtain experimental metrics at this scale. In this work, a constitutive law obtained by the asymptotic homogenization of a cracked, damageable, poroelastic medium is first evaluated for multi-scale use. For a given range of micro-scale parameters, due to the complex mechanical behaviour at micro-scale, such multi-scale approaches are needed to describe the (macro) material's behaviour. To overcome possible limitations regarding input data, meta-heuristics are used to calibrate the micro-scale parameters targeted on a synthetic failure envelope. Results show the validity of the approach to model micro-fractured materials such as coal or crystalline rocks.

Abstract
Hexavalent chromium has high toxic effect on the ecological system. The aim of the present study is to isolate and characterize the bacteria that can reduce the toxicity of hexavalent chromium from liquid effluent. The bacterial isolate was identified as Bacillus sp. ltds1 after 16 S rRNA gene sequencing, and annotation has been submitted in National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) GenBank. The bacterial strain was found able to grow in Luria Broth medium at 100 mg/L Cr6+ concentration. A maximum Cr6+ bioremediation (95.24 ± 2.08 %) could be achieved using the said isolate at 40 mg/L, pH 7, and inoculum concentration 4 % at 24 h. The residual chromium was found in the form of less toxic trivalent chromium (Cr3+), which confirms that the bacterial isolate can transform toxic Cr6+ to non-toxic Cr3+. Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) study was performed to analyze the functional groups and overall nature of chemical bonds involved in the remediation process, whereas, Energy-Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) studies of native and treated cells showed the changes in elemental composition in response to metal stress. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based prediction model is developed based on experimental points. The developed model was found to predict the bioremediation of Cr6+ at various operating conditions. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is used to optimize the variables like the initial concentration of metal, pH, temperature, and inoculum concentration for the said bacterial strain. The results showed that the isolate could be applied as a potential bioremediation agent for Cr6+ removal.

Abstract
It is necessary to control the movement of a complex multi-joint structure such as a robotic arm in order to reach a target position accurately in various applications. In this paper, a hybrid optimal Genetic–Swarm solution for the Inverse Kinematic (IK) solution of a robotic arm is presented. Each joint is controlled by Proportional–Integral–Derivative (PID) controller optimized with the Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), called Genetic–Swarm Optimization (GSO). GSO solves the IK of each joint while the dynamic model is determined by the Lagrangian. The tuning of the PID is defined as an optimization problem and is solved by PSO for the simulated model in a virtual environment. A Graphical User Interface has been developed as a front-end application. Based on the combination of hybrid optimal GSO and PID control, it is ascertained that the system works efficiently. Finally, we compare the hybrid optimal GSO with conventional optimization methods by statistic analysis.

Abstract
This study is motivated by the need to develop an efficient online structural health monitoring (SHM) framework to accurately localize damage induced acoustic emission (AE) sources in concrete structures. Experimental studies are carried out in concrete slabs considering pencil lead break (PLB) as artificial damage source to initialize acoustic emission (AE) waves. A simplified yet robust Iterative Planar Source (IPS) localization algorithm based on arrival time (ToA) is proposed first to identify arbitrarily selected several damage source locations for (1) rectangular (2)circular, and (3) zig-zag distributed AE sensor network arrangements. The results of the proposed localization algorithm are then compared with those obtained from an evolutionary particle-swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for each sensor network arrangement to assess the performance of the AE source monitoring strategy. It is found that the zig-zag arrangement of the distributed AE sensors is the most efficient sensor network arrangement for damage source localization. The obtained results clearly represent the accuracy and robustness of the proposed online monitoring framework for localizing damage induced acoustic emission sources in concrete structures without extensive manual intervention.

Abstract
The demand of electric power consumption is increasing very rapidly worldwide and to fulfill this requirement, solar energy is one of the most viable solution as renewable energy source. Photovoltaic (PV) cell based sun-tracker system (STS) produces maximum current when sunlight vertically incident on its surface. Hence, there is a need of optimized continuous axis position control of STS to achieve maximum output current. This task can be done on the basis of the fuzzy control system. Usually, in the traditional fuzzy control system (FCS), tuning of designed fuzzy parameter is done by trial and error method. However, this type of FCS parameter tuning approach may or may not give optimal solution. Thus, in presented work, an optimal tuning technique with Takagi, Sugeno and Kang (TSK) fuzzy controller (TFC) using Gray Wolf Optimization (GWO) for STS has been proposed. In order to validate the proposed work, different objective functions have been employed to carry out fuzzy controller parameter optimization. A comparative analysis has been performed on the basis of three parameters: settling time, maximum-overshoot and optimal fuzzy parameter on different constrain set. The results obtained with the GWO optimization algorithm were also compared with other popular population algorithms, i.e. Whale Optimization Technique (WOT) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms.

Abstract
A satellite image transmitted from satellite to the ground station is corrupted by different kinds of noises such as impulse noise, speckle noise and Gaussian noise. The traditional methods of denoising can remove the noise components but cannot preserve the quality of the image and lead to over-blurring of the edges in the image. To overcome these drawbacks, this paper develops an optimized bilateral filter for image denoising and preserving the edges using different nature inspired optimization algorithms which can effectively denoise the image without blurring the edges in the image. Denoising the image using a bilateral filter requires the decision of the control parameters so that the noise is removed and the edge details are preserved. With the help of optimization algorithms such as Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Cuckoo Search (CS) and Adaptive Cuckoo Search (ACS), the control parameters in the bilateral filter are decided for optimal performance. It is observed that the proposed Adaptive Cuckoo Search based bilateral filter denoising gives better results in terms of Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), Mean Square Error (MSE), Feature Similarity Index (FSIM), Entropy and CPU time in comparison to traditional methods such as Median filter and RGB spatial filter.

Abstract
To best represent reality, simulation models of environmental and health-related systems might be very nonlinear. Model calibration ideally identifies globally optimal sets of parameters to use for subsequent prediction. For a nonlinear system having multiple local optima, calibration can be tedious. For such a system, we contrast calibration results from PEST, a commonly used automated parameter estimation program versus several meta-heuristic global optimizers available as external packages for the Python computer language-the Gray Wolf Optimization (GWO) algorithm; the DYCORS optimizer framework with a Radial Basis Function surrogate simulator (DRB); and particle swarm optimization (PSO). We ran each optimizer 15 times, with nearly 10,000 MODFLOW simulations per run for the global optimizers, to calibrate a steady-state, groundwater flow simulation model of the complex Birds Nest aquifer, a three-layer system having 8 horizontal hydraulic conductivity zones and 25 head observation locations. In calibrating the eight hydraulic conductivity values, GWO averaged the best root mean squared error (RMSE) between observed and simulated heads-20 percent better (lower) than the next lowest optimizer, DRB. The best PEST run matched the best GWO RMSE, but both the average PEST RMSE and the range of PEST RMSE results were an order of magnitude larger than any of the global optimizers.

Abstract
Pyrolysis of pinewood (pinus sylvestris) was investigated based on thermogravimetric analysis. A new method was put forward to estimate its kinetic parameters by coupling model-free and model-fitting models. Kissinger-Kai method updated from Kissinger method was used as the representative of model-free method. Particle Swarm Optimization heuristic algorithm, as the typical model-fitting method, was coupled with three-component parallel reaction mechanism to search the optimized values, wherein its search ranges of kinetic parameters were referred to the original calculated values by Kissinger-Kai method. Furthermore, to explore the influence of separate kinetic parameter on the final predicted thermogravimetric results, global sensitivity analysis about these parameters was conducted by comparison of Spearman rank correlation coefficient based on Latin Hypercube Sampling and rank transformation. It was found that the top three parameters affecting the predicted results were activation energy of lignin, reaction order of cellulose and pre-exponential factor of lignin.

Abstract
Rapid and revolutionary changes in technology and rising demand for consumer electronics have led to staggering rates of accumulation of electrical and electronic equipment waste, viz., WEEE or e-waste. Consequently, e-waste has become one of the fastest growing municipal solid waste streams in the United States making its efficient management crucial in supporting the efforts to create and sustain green cities. Accurate estimations on the amount of e-waste might help in increasing the efficiency of waste collection, recycling and disposal operations that have become more complicated and unpredictable. Early work focusing on prediction of e-waste generation includes a wide range of methodologies. Among these, grey forecasting models have drawn attention due to their capability to provide meaningful results with relatively small-sized or limited data. The performance of grey models heavily rely on their parameters. The purpose of this study is to present a novel forecasting technique for e-waste predictions with multiple inputs in presence of limited historical data. The proposed nonlinear grey Bernoulli model with convolution integral NBGMC(1,n) improved by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) demonstrates superior accuracy over alternative forecasting models. The proposed model and its findings are delineated with the help of a case study utilizing Washington State e-waste data. The results indicate that population density has a major impact on the generated e-waste followed by household income level. The findings also show that the e-waste generation forms a saturated distribution in Washington State. These results can help decision makers plan for more effective reverse logistics infrastructures that would ensure proper collection, recycling and disposal of e-waste.

Abstract
Simultaneously inferring both the structure and parameters of Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) for a complex dynamic system is more practical in many systems identification problems, but it remains challenging due to the complexity of the underlying search space. In this research, we propose a novel algorithm based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) to address the above problem. The proposed algorithm is termed LatinPSO, and it can be effectively used for inferring the structure and parameters of ODE models through time course data. To start with, the real Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) model and several synthetic models are used for evaluating the performance of LatinPSO. Experimental results demonstrated that LatinPSO could find satisfactory candidate ODE models with appropriate structure and parameters.

Abstract
This study aims to investigate the prediction of critical buckling load of steel columns using two hybrid Artificial Intelligence (AI) models such as Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System optimized by Genetic Algorithm (ANFIS-GA) and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System optimized by Particle Swarm Optimization (ANFIS-PSO). For this purpose, a total number of 57 experimental buckling tests of novel high strength steel Y-section columns were collected from the available literature to generate the dataset for training and validating the two proposed AI models. Quality assessment criteria such as coefficient of determination (R2), Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) were used to validate and evaluate the performance of the prediction models. Results showed that both ANFIS-GA and ANFIS-PSO had a strong ability in predicting the buckling load of steel columns, but ANFIS-PSO (R2 = 0.929, RMSE = 60.522 and MAE = 44.044) was slightly better than ANFIS-GA (R2 = 0.916, RMSE = 65.371 and MAE = 48.588). The two models were also robust even with the presence of input variability, as investigated via Monte Carlo simulations. This study showed that the hybrid AI techniques could help constructing an efficient numerical tool for buckling analysis.

Abstract
The Adaptive Boosting (AdaBoost) algorithm is a widely used ensemble learning framework, and it can get good classification results on general datasets. However, it is challenging to apply the AdaBoost algorithm directly to imbalanced data since it is designed mainly for processing misclassified samples rather than samples of minority classes. To better process imbalanced data, this paper introduces the indicator Area Under Curve (AUC) which can reflect the comprehensive performance of the model, and proposes an improved AdaBoost algorithm based on AUC (AdaBoost-A) which improves the error calculation performance of the AdaBoost algorithm by comprehensively considering the effects of misclassification probability and AUC. To prevent redundant or useless weak classifiers the traditional AdaBoost algorithm generated from consuming too much system resources, this paper proposes an ensemble algorithm, PSOPD-AdaBoost-A, which can re-initialize parameters to avoid falling into local optimum, and optimize the coefficients of AdaBoost weak classifiers. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm is effective for processing imbalanced data, especially the data with relatively high imbalances.

Abstract
Background Mathematical modeling has achieved a broad interest in the field of biology. These models represent the associations among the metabolism of the biological phenomenon with some mathematical equations such that the observed time course profile of the biological data fits the model. However, the estimation of the unknown parameters of the model is a challenging task. Many algorithms have been developed for parameter estimation, but none of them is entirely capable of finding the best solution. The purpose of this paper is to develop a method for precise estimation of parameters of a biological model. Methods In this paper, a novel particle swarm optimization algorithm based on a decomposition technique is developed. Then, its root mean square error is compared with simple particle swarm optimization, Iterative Unscented Kalman Filter and Simulated Annealing algorithms for two different simulation scenarios and a real data set related to the metabolism of CAD system. Results Our proposed algorithm results in 54.39% and 26.72% average reduction in root mean square error when applied to the simulation and experimental data, respectively. Conclusion The results show that the metaheuristic approaches such as the proposed method are very wise choices for finding the solution of nonlinear problems with many unknown parameters.

Abstract
The development of automated segmentation approaches, which do not suffer from excessive computational burden and intra- and inter-observer variability, is the holy grail of multispectral MR image classification. A new segmentation approach to the data set of MR brain images using a combination of Independent Component Analysis (ICA) with a generalized version of the popular Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) for unsupervised classification is proposed to be superior to conventional methods in this paper. We propose to optimize the parameters of the mixture model using a meta-heuristic approach like the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to escape the problem of local traps (maxima or minima). Experiments were carried out initially on a synthetic MR Brainweb image set as proof of concept and subsequently on 152 sets of clinical MR images with T1w, T2w and FLAIR sequences. The major advantage of the proposed algorithm is the increased accuracy of lesion classification - average of 94.79% (±1.7) against 85.85% (±3.1) without ICA. As a result of the incorporation of ICA, the inherent computational overhead was also lowered as evidenced by faster convergence. Comparative studies using quantitative and qualitative analysis against conventional algorithms establish the superiority of the proposed approach.

Abstract
Miniaturized grippers that possess an untethered structure are suitable for a wide range of tasks, ranging from micromanipulation and microassembly to minimally invasive surgical interventions. In order to robustly perform such tasks, it is critical to properly estimate their overall configuration. Previous studies on tracking and control of miniaturized agents estimated mainly their 2D pixel position, mostly using cameras and optical images as a feedback modality. This paper presents a novel solution to the problem of estimating and tracking the 3D position, orientation and configuration of the tips of submillimeter grippers from marker-less visual observations. We consider this as an optimization problem, which is solved using a variant of the Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm. The proposed approach has been implemented in a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) which allows a user to track the submillimeter agents online. The proposed approach has been evaluated on several image sequences obtained from a camera and on B-mode ultrasound images obtained from an ultrasound probe. The sequences show the grippers moving, rotating, opening/closing and grasping biological material. Qualitative results obtained using both hydrogel (soft) and metallic (hard) grippers with different shapes and sizes ranging from 750 microns to 4 mm (tip to tip), demonstrate the capability of the proposed method to track the agent in all the video sequences. Quantitative results obtained by processing synthetic data reveal a tracking position error of 25 ± 7 μm and orientation error of 1.7 ± 1.3 degrees. We believe that the proposed technique can be applied to different stimuli responsive miniaturized agents, allowing the user to estimate the full configuration of complex agents from visual marker-less observations.

Abstract
Objective An effective training plan is an important factor in sports training to enhance athletic performance. A poorly considered training plan may result in injury to the athlete, and overtraining. Good training plans normally require expert input, which may have a cost too great for many athletes, particularly amateur athletes. The objectives of this research were to create a practical cycling training plan that substantially improves athletic performance while satisfying essential physiological constraints. Adaptive Particle Swarm Optimization using ɛ-constraint methods were used to formulate such a plan and simulate the likely performance outcomes. The physiological constraints considered in this study were monotony, chronic training load ramp rate and daily training impulse. Results A comparison of results from our simulations against a training plan from British Cycling, which we used as our standard, showed that our training plan outperformed the benchmark in terms of both athletic performance and satisfying all physiological constraints.

Abstract
Autoregressive (AR) models are of commonly utilized feature types in Electroencephalogram (EEG) studies due to offering better resolution, smoother spectra and being applicable to short segments of data. Identifying correct AR's modeling order is an open challenge. Lower model orders poorly represent the signal while higher orders increase noise. Conventional methods for estimating modeling order includes Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) and Final Prediction Error (FPE). This article assesses the hypothesis that appropriate mixture of multiple AR orders is likely to better represent the true signal compared to any single order. Better spectral representation of underlying EEG patterns can increase utility of AR features in Brain Computer Interface (BCI) systems by increasing timely & correctly responsiveness of such systems to operator's thoughts. Two mechanisms of Evolutionary-based fusion and Ensemble-based mixture are utilized for identifying such appropriate mixture of modeling orders. The classification performance of the resultant AR-mixtures are assessed against several conventional methods utilized by the community including 1) A well-known set of commonly used orders suggested by the literature, 2) conventional order estimation approaches (e.g., AIC, BIC and FPE), 3) blind mixture of AR features originated from a range of well-known orders. Five datasets from BCI competition III that contain 2, 3 and 4 motor imagery tasks are considered for the assessment. The results indicate superiority of Ensemble-based modeling order mixture and evolutionary-based order fusion methods within all datasets.

Abstract
A novel parameter automation strategy for Particle Swarm Optimization called APSO (Adaptive PSO) is proposed. The algorithm is designed to efficiently control the local search and convergence to the global optimum solution. Parameters c1 controls the impact of the cognitive component on the particle trajectory and c2 controls the impact of the social component. Instead of fixing the value of c1 and c2 , this paper updates the value of these acceleration coefficients by considering time variation of evaluation function along with varying inertia weight factor in PSO. Here the maximum and minimum value of evaluation function is use to gradually decrease and increase the value of c1 and c2 respectively. Molecular energy minimization is one of the most challenging unsolved problems and it can be formulated as a global optimization problem. The aim of the present paper is to investigate the effect of newly developed APSO on the highly complex molecular potential energy function and to check the efficiency of the proposed algorithm to find the global minimum of the function under consideration. The proposed algorithm APSO is therefore applied in two cases: Firstly, for the minimization of a potential energy of small molecules with up to 100 degrees of freedom and finally for finding the global minimum energy conformation of 1,2,3-trichloro-1-flouro-propane molecule based on a realistic potential energy function. The computational results of all the cases show that the proposed method performs significantly better than the other algorithms.

Abstract
We propose a method for registering a pair of retinal images. The proposed approach employs point correspondences and assumes that the human eye has a spherical shape. The image registration problem is formulated as a 3D pose estimation problem, solved by estimating the rigid transformation that relates the views from which the two images were acquired. Given this estimate, each image can be warped upon the other so that pixels with the same coordinates image the same retinal point. Extensive experimental evaluation shows improved accuracy over state of the art methods, as well as robustness to noise and spurious keypoint matches. Experiments also indicate the method's applicability to the comparative analysis of images from different examinations that may exhibit changes and its applicability to diagnostic support.

Abstract
This paper applied a novel global meta-heuristic optimization algorithm, cuckoo search algorithm (CSA) to determine optimal coefficients of a fractional delay-infinite impulse response (FD-IIR) filter and trying to meet the ideal frequency response characteristics. Since fractional delay-IIR filter design is a multi-modal optimization problem, it cannot be computed efficiently using conventional gradient based optimization techniques. A weighted least square (WLS) based fitness function is used to improve the performance to a great extent. FD-IIR filters of different orders have been designed using the CSA. The simulation results of the proposed CSA based approach have been compared to those of well accepted evolutionary algorithms like Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The performance of the CSA based FD-IIR filter is superior to those obtained by GA and PSO. The simulation and statistical results affirm that the proposed approach using CSA outperforms GA and PSO, not only in the convergence rate but also in optimal performance of the designed FD-IIR filter (i.e., smaller magnitude error, smaller phase error, higher percentage improvement in magnitude and phase error, fast convergence rate). The absolute magnitude and phase error obtained for the designed 5th order FD-IIR filter are as low as 0.0037 and 0.0046, respectively. The percentage improvement in magnitude error for CSA based 5th order FD-IIR design with respect to GA and PSO are 80.93% and 74.83% respectively, and phase error are 76.04% and 71.25%, respectively.

Abstract
This work presents an automatic tuning method for the discontinuous component of the Sliding Mode Generalized Predictive Controller (SMGPC) subject to constraints. The strategy employs Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to minimize a second aggregated cost function. The continuous component is obtained by the standard procedure, by Quadratic Programming (QP), thus yielding an online dual optimization scheme. Simulations and performance indexes for common process models in industry, such as nonminimum phase and time delayed systems, result in a better performance, improving robustness and tracking accuracy.

Abstract
The Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Support Vector Machines (SVMs) approaches are used for predicting the thermodynamic parameters for the 1:1 inclusion complexation of chiral guests with beta-cyclodextrin. A PSO is adopted for descriptor selection in the quantitative structure-property relationships (QSPR) of a dataset of 74 chiral guests due to its simplicity, speed, and consistency. The modified PSO is then combined with SVMs for its good approximating properties, to generate a QSPR model with the selected features. Linear, polynomial, and Gaussian radial basis functions are used as kernels in SVMs. All models have demonstrated an impressive performance with R(2) higher than 0.8.
