Abstract The existing algorithms for solving multi-objective optimization problems fall into three main categories: Decomposition-based, dominance-based, and indicator-based. Traditional multi-objective optimization problems mainly focus on objectives, treating decision variables as a total variable to solve the problem without considering the critical role of decision variables in objective optimization. As seen, a variety of decision variable grouping algorithms have been proposed. However, these algorithms are relatively broad for the changes of most decision variables in the evolution process and are time-consuming in the process of finding the Pareto frontier. To solve these problems, a multi-objective optimization algorithm for grouping decision variables based… More >

Abstract Hyperspectral image classification stands as a pivotal task within the field of remote sensing, yet achieving high-precision classification remains a significant challenge. In response to this challenge, a Spectral Convolutional Neural Network model based on Adaptive Fick’s Law Algorithm (AFLA-SCNN) is proposed. The Adaptive Fick’s Law Algorithm (AFLA) constitutes a novel metaheuristic algorithm introduced herein, encompassing three new strategies: Adaptive weight factor, Gaussian mutation, and probability update policy. With adaptive weight factor, the algorithm can adjust the weights according to the change in the number of iterations to improve the performance of the algorithm. Gaussian mutation helps the algorithm avoid… More >

Abstract The large-scale multi-objective optimization algorithm (LSMOA), based on the grouping of decision variables, is an advanced method for handling high-dimensional decision variables. However, in practical problems, the interaction among decision variables is intricate, leading to large group sizes and suboptimal optimization effects; hence a large-scale multi-objective optimization algorithm based on weighted overlapping grouping of decision variables (MOEAWOD) is proposed in this paper. Initially, the decision variables are perturbed and categorized into convergence and diversity variables; subsequently, the convergence variables are subdivided into groups based on the interactions among different decision variables. If the size of a group surpasses the set… More >

Abstract Rock bursts represent a formidable challenge in underground engineering, posing substantial risks to both infrastructure and human safety. These sudden and violent failures of rock masses are characterized by the rapid release of accumulated stress within the rock, leading to severe seismic events and structural damage. Therefore, the development of reliable prediction models for rock bursts is paramount to mitigating these hazards. This study aims to propose a tree-based model—a Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM)—to predict the intensity of rock bursts in underground engineering. 322 actual rock burst cases are collected to constitute an exhaustive rock burst dataset, which serves… More >

Abstract Traditional laboratory tests for measuring rock uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) are tedious and time-consuming. There is a pressing need for more effective methods to determine rock UCS, especially in deep mining environments under high in-situ stress. Thus, this study aims to develop an advanced model for predicting the UCS of rock material in deep mining environments by combining three boosting-based machine learning methods with four optimization algorithms. For this purpose, the Lead-Zinc mine in Southwest China is considered as the case study. Rock density, P-wave velocity, and point load strength index are used as input variables, and UCS is regarded… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The Gannet Optimization Algorithm (GOA) and the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) demonstrate strong performance; however, there remains room for improvement in convergence and practical applications. This study introduces a hybrid optimization algorithm, named the adaptive inertia weight whale optimization algorithm and gannet optimization algorithm (AIWGOA), which addresses challenges in enhancing handwritten documents. The hybrid strategy integrates the strengths of both algorithms, significantly enhancing their capabilities, whereas the adaptive parameter strategy mitigates the need for manual parameter setting. By amalgamating the hybrid strategy and parameter-adaptive approach, the Gannet Optimization Algorithm was refined to yield the AIWGOA. Through a performance analysis of… More >

Abstract Rapid development in Information Technology (IT) has allowed several novel application regions like large outdoor vehicular networks for Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) transmission. Vehicular networks give a safe and more effective driving experience by presenting time-sensitive and location-aware data. The communication occurs directly between V2V and Base Station (BS) units such as the Road Side Unit (RSU), named as a Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I). However, the frequent topology alterations in VANETs generate several problems with data transmission as the vehicle velocity differs with time. Therefore, the scheme of an effectual routing protocol for reliable and stable communications is significant. Current research demonstrates… More >

Abstract This research paper presents a novel optimization method called the Synergistic Swarm Optimization Algorithm (SSOA). The SSOA combines the principles of swarm intelligence and synergistic cooperation to search for optimal solutions efficiently. A synergistic cooperation mechanism is employed, where particles exchange information and learn from each other to improve their search behaviors. This cooperation enhances the exploitation of promising regions in the search space while maintaining exploration capabilities. Furthermore, adaptive mechanisms, such as dynamic parameter adjustment and diversification strategies, are incorporated to balance exploration and exploitation. By leveraging the collaborative nature of swarm intelligence and integrating synergistic cooperation, the SSOA… More >
