    Abstract The basic operation of a mobile robot is navigating to some target, avoiding collisions and possibly minimizing other criteria. A diversity of methods have been developed since the past century, and the research is still active, but there is one aspect that is often neglected: the duration of the steps in which computational devices divide the navigation process. Usually, it is set heuristically to a small, constant value for sampling observations frequently enough to ensure safety; however, each robot and environment has particularities that can make such a fixed timestep sub-optimal under some criteria.

    A Survey of AI-Based Encrypted Traffic Detection: Multi-Level Taxonomy and Structural Analysis of Intent–Behavior–Model Coupling

    Yeog Kim, Changhoon Lee, Kiwook Sohn*
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2026.083669
    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: The Evolution of Cybersecurity and AI: Surveys and Tutorials)
    Abstract With the widespread adoption of encryption protocols, payload-based traffic analysis has become increasingly infeasible, posing significant challenges for intrusion detection systems (IDS). Consequently, AI-based approaches for encrypted traffic analysis have gained substantial attention. However, existing studies are often evaluated using inconsistent criteria, including heterogeneous attack labels, behavioral representations, and model architectures, making systematic comparison difficult. To address this limitation, this paper proposes a three-level analytical taxonomy for encrypted traffic analysis, structured around attack objectives (Level 1), observable network behaviors (Level 2), and detection models (Level 3). The proposed framework provides a structured perspective for analyzing… More >

    Abstract Two-phase optimized machine learning and deep learning models play a key role in enhancing the prediction accuracy of nonlinear time series modeling. This study assesses the performance of a novel two-phase optimized Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) model with integration of Aquila Optimizer (AO) and Wild Horse Optimizer (WHO) in predicting monthly streamflow in a snow-fed catchment. The two-phase optimized LSTM-WHOAO model is compared with single-phase optimized models such as LSTM-GA (Genetic Algorithm), LSTM-GWO (Grey Wolf Optimizer), LSTM-WOA (Whale Optimization Algorithm), LSTM-AO, and LSTM-WHO. The outcomes acquired from the deep learning models were compared using four… More >

    LLM-Driven Cross-Flow Modeling for Network Attack Traffic Detection

    Aoran Huang1,2,*, Sinuo Zhang1,2, Haoxiang Zhu1,2, Xiaojing Fan1,2, Huachun Zhou1,2,*
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2026.083972
    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: Advanced Security and Privacy for Future Mobile Internet and Convergence Applications: A Computer Modeling Approach)
    Abstract In Future Mobile Internet and convergence application scenarios, existing network attack traffic detection methods are insufficient in characterizing cross-flow correlations and structural dependencies during the attack process, and therefore still have limited generalization ability in complex scenarios and unknown attack identification tasks. To address this issue, this paper proposes a cross-flow modeling large language model framework, which extends the traditional detection paradigm based on single-flow features to joint modeling oriented toward cross-flow context and relational structure. Specifically, this paper constructs cross-flow context through flow sorting, grouping, and cross-group sampling, and combines an inter-flow relation matrix… More >

    Entropy Generation Analysis of Alumina-Water Nanofluid Turbulent Convective Heat Transfer Using an Elliptic Blending Turbulence Model

    Lei Yang1,2, Yiyun Hu1, Xianglong Yang1,*
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2026.083905
    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: Computational Advances in Nanofluids: Modelling, Simulations, and Applications)
    Abstract Accurate prediction of entropy generation in nanofluid turbulent convection is essential for optimizing thermal system efficiency, yet remains challenging due to complex near-wall phenomena and thermal property variations with temperature. This study applied an elliptic blending turbulence model (SST k-ω-φ-α) to numerically analyze entropy generation in alumina-water nanofluid flow through a uniformly heated circular tube. The model’s performance was validated using both experimental data and established heat transfer and fluid flow correlations at small wall-bulk temperature difference condition, and its superiority was rigorously evaluated against two widely adopted turbulence models (SST k-ω and realizable k-ε).… More >

    Bounded Data Modeling with the Extended Bradford Distribution: Modal Regression Approach and Applications

    Emrah Altun1,*, Christophe Chesneau2, Atacan Erdis1
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2026.083459
    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: Computer Modeling in Statistics)
    Abstract Modeling bounded response variables is an important problem in computational statistics, especially in applications involving skewed, heavy-tailed data. In such cases, the modal regression is a robust alternative to traditional mean-based modeling approaches. In this study, a new bounded distribution, called the extended Bradford distribution, is proposed as a flexible extension of the classical Bradford distribution. By incorporating an additional shape parameter, the corresponding model can capture various shape structures, such as left and right skewness, increasing, and bathtub hazard shapes. The new distribution provides an explicit expression for the mode, making it suitable for More >

    Mitigating Visual Noise in Multimodal AI: Selective Visual Grounding for Multimodal Machine Translation

    Ki-Young Shin1, Soonmo Kwon2, Kyudong Park3,*
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2026.083410
    Abstract Multimodal AI systems often suffer from “over-informing”, where excessive raw visual input introduces noise that distracts from task-relevant decisions. Motivated by selective human attention strategies, we propose ARS-MMT (Attention and Reasoning through Source Sentences for Multimodal Machine Translation), an architecture that operationalizes a “look-and-think” pipeline: a source-language encoder first builds contextualized linguistic representations, a relation reasoning network then produces a query-conditioned visual channel, and a multimodal decoder generates the translation conditioned in parallel on the encoded text and on this visual channel. We quantify the contribution of the visual modality through a controlled ablation: zeroing… More >

    AutoINF: Path-Sensitive Invariant Inference for Multipath Loops

    Abeer S. Hadad1, Fahman Saeed2, Adeeb A. Ahmed3,*, Jiangbin Zheng1
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2026.083873
    Abstract Loop invariant inference is fundamental to program verification, yet it remains particularly challenging for multipath loops, where different execution paths may exhibit incompatible behaviors across feasible executions. In such settings, invariants that are both sound and sufficiently precise often require disjunctive forms, whose automatic inference remains difficult. This paper presents an efficient, path-sensitive, counterexample-guided framework for automated loop invariant inference. Our approach leverages a Path Dependency Automaton (PDA) to systematically decompose the semantics of multipath loops by modeling feasible execution paths independently. Building on this decomposition, we introduce a localized, path-guided Counterexample-Guided Invariant Refinement (CEGIR) More >

    Multi-Objective and Multi-Criteria Optimization of Energy Storage Planning in Renewable Distribution Networks

    Alireza Norouzpour Shahrbejari1, Nafiseh Pishbin2, Mohammad Reza Maghami3,*, Mazlan Mohamed4,*, Mohammad Golmohammad1
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2026.083763
    Abstract This study presents a weighted-sum multi-criteria optimization framework using PSO for the optimal siting, sizing, and scenario-based operation of energy storage systems (ESSs) in renewable-integrated distribution networks. The proposed model concurrently addresses technical, economic, and reliability objectives—minimizing active power losses (PL), voltage deviation (VD), expected energy not supplied (EENS), and short-circuit level (SCL), while maximizing voltage sensitivity index (VSI) and power-loss sensitivity factor (PLSF). A Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm with weighted-sum scalarization is employed to solve this complex, nonlinear optimization problem and effectively balance the conflicting operational goals. The framework is validated using IEEE… More >

    Abstract The accelerated digital transformation of critical infrastructure has yielded unprecedented system interconnectivity, enhancing operational efficiency, simultaneously expanding the epidemiological propagation surface in heterogeneous networks. A novel machine learning-driven neuroarchitecture is designed in the present study, leveraging multilayer autoregressive exogenous neural networks (ARXNNs) iteratively trained with the Levenberg Marquardt (LM) algorithm, i.e., ARXNNs-LM, to address the intricate temporal dynamics of nonlinear fractional epidemiological computer virus propagation in the networks. The proposed ARXNNs-LM methodology effectively models the dynamic state transitions between susceptible, infected, and recovered systems. The dataset is synthesized through the application of the Grünwald–Letnikov (GL)… More >

    Intelligent Control of Parabolic Trough Collectors via Deep Reinforcement Learning

    Marta Leal, Verónica Abad-Alcaraz, María del Mar Castilla, José Domingo Álvarez*
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2026.080261
    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: Intelligent Control and Machine Learning for Renewable Energy Systems and Industries)
    Abstract The effective control of parabolic trough collectors (PTCs) remains a significant challenge due to the inherent non-linearities of the system and the continuous impact of environmental disturbances. Although PTCs are a key technology for industrial process heat and large-scale electricity generation, classical control strategies often struggle to maintain optimal performance under fluctuating conditions. To address these limitations, this paper presents a novel reinforcement learning (RL)-based controller, designed specifically for solar thermal systems. The proposed RL agent is designed to learn directly from operational data, enabling it to adapt its control policy in real time to More >

    Computer Modeling and Characterization of Plastic Strain Hardening in Ti-6Al-4V under Tension and Compression

    Teng Long1, Leyu Wang2,*, James D. Lee3, Cing-Dao Kan2
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2026.080866
    Abstract Titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V has been widely applied in many industries, for example, aerospace, marine, automotive, and biomedical engineering systems, where accurate characterization of plastic deformation is important for evaluating material performance and potential failure under severe loading conditions. This material shows nonlinear plasticity and tension–compression asymmetry, which makes the strain hardening characterization important for computational failure analysis and crashworthiness-related simulations. However, conventional strain hardening models and parameter identification methods often rely on linear or extrapolation-based assumptions and are sensitive to initial guesses due to the non-convex nature of the optimization problem. In this study, a More >

Although various PI/PID and other advanced control strategies have been employed for LFC in power systems, the existing methods have shown some limitations in terms of dynamic flexibility and robustness in the presence of nonlinearities and couplings in the power systems. Moreover, the optimization methods employed for the tuning of… More >

In this work, we developed a new model to show the success of In Vitro Fertilization rates in women through a fractional- order compartmental modeling framework by using real data. The developed model is analyzed statistically, and the biological feasibility of the model. The Lipschitz… More >
