Abstract Primary light chain amyloidosis is a rare hematologic disease with multi-organ involvement. Nearly one-third of patients with amyloidosis experience five or more consultations before diagnosis, which may lead to a poor prognosis due to delayed diagnosis. Early risk prediction based on artificial intelligence is valuable for clinical diagnosis and treatment of amyloidosis. For this disease, we propose an Evolutionary Neural Architecture Searching (ENAS) based risk prediction model, which achieves high-precision early risk prediction using physical examination data as a reference factor. To further enhance the value of clinic application, we designed a natural language-based interpretable… More >

Abstract With the development of economic globalization, distributed manufacturing is becoming more and more prevalent. Recently, integrated scheduling of distributed production and assembly has captured much concern. This research studies a distributed flexible job shop scheduling problem with assembly operations. Firstly, a mixed integer programming model is formulated to minimize the maximum completion time. Secondly, a Q-learning-assisted co-evolutionary algorithm is presented to solve the model: (1) Multiple populations are developed to seek required decisions simultaneously; (2) An encoding and decoding method based on problem features is applied to represent individuals; (3) A hybrid approach of heuristic… More >

Abstract With the rapid advancements in technology and science, optimization theory and algorithms have become increasingly important. A wide range of real-world problems is classified as optimization challenges, and meta-heuristic algorithms have shown remarkable effectiveness in solving these challenges across diverse domains, such as machine learning, process control, and engineering design, showcasing their capability to address complex optimization problems. The Stochastic Fractal Search (SFS) algorithm is one of the most popular meta-heuristic optimization methods inspired by the fractal growth patterns of natural materials. Since its introduction by Hamid Salimi in 2015, SFS has garnered significant attention… More >

Abstract In recent years, particle swarm optimization (PSO) has received widespread attention in feature selection due to its simplicity and potential for global search. However, in traditional PSO, particles primarily update based on two extreme values: personal best and global best, which limits the diversity of information. Ideally, particles should learn from multiple advantageous particles to enhance interactivity and optimization efficiency. Accordingly, this paper proposes a PSO that simulates the evolutionary dynamics of species survival in mountain peak ecology (PEPSO) for feature selection. Based on the pyramid topology, the algorithm simulates the features of mountain peak… More >

Abstract The wireless signals emitted by base stations serve as a vital link connecting people in today’s society and have been occupying an increasingly important role in real life. The development of the Internet of Things (IoT) relies on the support of base stations, which provide a solid foundation for achieving a more intelligent way of living. In a specific area, achieving higher signal coverage with fewer base stations has become an urgent problem. Therefore, this article focuses on the effective coverage area of base station signals and proposes a novel Evolutionary Particle Swarm Optimization (EPSO)… More >

Abstract Metaheuristics are commonly used in various fields, including real-life problem-solving and engineering applications. The present work introduces a novel metaheuristic algorithm named the Artificial Circulatory System Algorithm (ACSA). The control of the circulatory system inspires it and mimics the behavior of hormonal and neural regulators involved in this process. The work initially evaluates the effectiveness of the suggested approach on 16 two-dimensional test functions, identified as classical benchmark functions. The method was subsequently examined by application to 12 CEC 2022 benchmark problems of different complexities. Furthermore, the paper evaluates ACSA in comparison to 64 metaheuristic… More >

Abstract The strategy evolution process of game players is highly uncertain due to random emergent situations and other external disturbances. This paper investigates the issue of strategy interaction and behavioral decision-making among game players in simulated confrontation scenarios within a random interference environment. It considers the possible risks that random disturbances may pose to the autonomous decision-making of game players, as well as the impact of participants’ manipulative behaviors on the state changes of the players. A nonlinear mathematical model is established to describe the strategy decision-making process of the participants in this scenario. Subsequently, the… More >

Abstract The SWEET (sugar will eventually be exported transporter) family proteins are a recently identified class of sugar transporters that are essential for various physiological processes. Although the functions of the SWEET proteins have been identified in a number of species, to date, there have been no reports of the functions of the SWEET genes in woodland strawberries (Fragaria vesca). In this study, we identified 15 genes that were highly homologous to the A. thaliana AtSWEET genes and designated them as FvSWEET1–FvSWEET15. We then conducted a structural and evolutionary analysis of these 15 FvSWEET genes. The phylogenetic analysis enabled us… More >
