Abstract While many metaheuristic optimization algorithms strive to address optimization challenges, they often grapple with the delicate balance between exploration and exploitation, leading to issues such as premature convergence, sensitivity to parameter settings, and difficulty in maintaining population diversity. In response to these challenges, this study introduces the Chase, Pounce, and Escape (CPE) algorithm, drawing inspiration from predator-prey dynamics. Unlike traditional optimization approaches, the CPE algorithm divides the population into two groups, each independently exploring the search space to efficiently navigate complex problem domains and avoid local optima. By incorporating a unique search mechanism that integrates More >

Abstract Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are a collection of sensor nodes distributed in space and connected through wireless communication. The sensor nodes gather and store data about the real world around them. However, the nodes that are dependent on batteries will ultimately suffer an energy loss with time, which affects the lifetime of the network. This research proposes to achieve its primary goal by reducing energy consumption and increasing the network’s lifetime and stability. The present technique employs the hybrid Mayfly Optimization Algorithm-Enhanced Ant Colony Optimization (MFOA-EACO), where the Mayfly Optimization Algorithm (MFOA) is used to… More >

Abstract The denoising of microseismic signals is a prerequisite for subsequent analysis and research. In this research, a new microseismic signal denoising algorithm called the Black Widow Optimization Algorithm (BWOA) optimized Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) joint Wavelet Threshold Denoising (WTD) algorithm (BVW) is proposed. The BVW algorithm integrates VMD and WTD, both of which are optimized by BWOA. Specifically, this algorithm utilizes VMD to decompose the microseismic signal to be denoised into several Band-Limited Intrinsic Mode Functions (BLIMFs). Subsequently, these BLIMFs whose correlation coefficients with the microseismic signal to be denoised are higher than a threshold… More >

Abstract Feature Selection (FS) is a key pre-processing step in pattern recognition and data mining tasks, which can effectively avoid the impact of irrelevant and redundant features on the performance of classification models. In recent years, meta-heuristic algorithms have been widely used in FS problems, so a Hybrid Binary Chaotic Salp Swarm Dung Beetle Optimization (HBCSSDBO) algorithm is proposed in this paper to improve the effect of FS. In this hybrid algorithm, the original continuous optimization algorithm is converted into binary form by the S-type transfer function and applied to the FS problem. By combining the… More >

Abstract The efficiency of businesses is often hindered by the challenges encountered in traditional Supply Chain Management (SCM), which is characterized by elevated risks due to inadequate accountability and transparency. To address these challenges and improve operations in green manufacturing, optimization algorithms play a crucial role in supporting decision-making processes. In this study, we propose a solution to the green lot size optimization issue by leveraging bio-inspired algorithms, notably the Stork Optimization Algorithm (SOA). The SOA draws inspiration from the hunting and winter migration strategies employed by storks in nature. The theoretical framework of SOA is… More >

Abstract To enhance the diversity and distribution uniformity of initial population, as well as to avoid local extrema in the Chimp Optimization Algorithm (CHOA), this paper improves the CHOA based on chaos initialization and Cauchy mutation. First, Sin chaos is introduced to improve the random population initialization scheme of the CHOA, which not only guarantees the diversity of the population, but also enhances the distribution uniformity of the initial population. Next, Cauchy mutation is added to optimize the global search ability of the CHOA in the process of position (threshold) updating to avoid the CHOA falling More >

Abstract In recent decades, fog computing has played a vital role in executing parallel computational tasks, specifically, scientific workflow tasks. In cloud data centers, fog computing takes more time to run workflow applications. Therefore, it is essential to develop effective models for Virtual Machine (VM) allocation and task scheduling in fog computing environments. Effective task scheduling, VM migration, and allocation, altogether optimize the use of computational resources across different fog nodes. This process ensures that the tasks are executed with minimal energy consumption, which reduces the chances of resource bottlenecks. In this manuscript, the proposed framework… More >

Abstract Complex optimization problems hold broad significance across numerous fields and applications. However, as the dimensionality of such problems increases, issues like the curse of dimensionality and local optima trapping also arise. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a novel Wild Gibbon Optimization Algorithm (WGOA) based on an analysis of wild gibbon population behavior. WGOA comprises two strategies: community search and community competition. The community search strategy facilitates information exchange between two gibbon families, generating multiple candidate solutions to enhance algorithm diversity. Meanwhile, the community competition strategy reselects leaders for the population after each iteration, More >

Abstract In the contemporary world of highly efficient technological development, fifth-generation technology (5G) is seen as a vital step forward with theoretical maximum download speeds of up to twenty gigabits per second (Gbps). As far as the current implementations are concerned, they are at the level of slightly below 1 Gbps, but this allowed a great leap forward from fourth generation technology (4G), as well as enabling significantly reduced latency, making 5G an absolute necessity for applications such as gaming, virtual conferencing, and other interactive electronic processes. Prospects of this change are not limited to connectivity… More >
