Abstract: The reptile search algorithm (RSA) is a dynamic and effective meta-heuristic algorithm inspired by the behavior of crocodiles in nature and the way of hunting prey. Unlike other crawler search algorithms, it uses four novel mechanisms to update the location of the solutions, such as walking at high or on the belly, and hunting in a coordinated or cooperative manner. In this algorithm, the total number of iterations is divided into four intervals, and different position-updating strategies are used to make the algorithm easily fall into the local optimum. Therefore, an improved reptile search algorithm based on a mathematical optimization …accelerator (MOA) and elementary functions is proposed to improve its search efficiency and make it not easily fall into local optimum. MOA was used to realize the switching of RSA’s four searching modes by introducing random perturbations of six elementary functions (sine function, cosine function, tangent function, arccosine function, hyperbolic secant function and hyperbolic cosecant function), four mechanisms are distinguished by random number instead of the original RSA algorithm’s inherent four mechanisms by iteration number, which increases the randomness of the algorithm and avoids falling into local optimum. The random perturbations generated by elementary functions are added to the variation trend of parameter MOA to improve the optimization accuracy of the algorithm. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, 30 benchmark functions in CEC2017 were used for carrying out simulation experiments, and the optimization performance was compared with BAT, PSO, ChOA, MRA and SSA. Finally, two practical engineering design problems are optimized. Simulation results show that the proposed sechRSA has strong global optimization ability. Show more

Abstract: High-performance concrete (HPC) is one of the most important elements in constructing bridges, skyscrapers, and dams. This concrete additive plays a very important role in performance and response to inflow loads such as earthquakes and dead loads. Fly ash (Fa) and Micro-silica (Ms) are additives added to concrete by cement to reduce water to cement. Increase the ratio and increase the hardening of the cement. This will improve the compressive strength (Cs) of the concrete. Modeling is required for this type of structure. The radial basis function (RBF) is one of the models that can produce better and more rational …results. This model combines two optimizers, the Sine Cosine Algorithm (SCA) and the Artificial hummingbird algorithm (AHA), in the framework of RBF-SCA and RBF-AHA, which are considered to be new and effective initiatives in the field of algorithms. The lowest amount of error parameters contains: (RMSE = 2.58), (NMSE = 6.59), and (U95 = 7.16) for RBF-AHA in the train section and the test section (MBE = – 0.1929). The (Tstate = 0.285) in the train section of the RBF-SCA has the lowest compared to another section. RBF-AHA has the highest R2 value of 97.15% in the training area. Both hybrid models can have the desired error and the correct percentage based on the given output. However, the RBF-AHA model may look more powerful in this modeling. Show more

Abstract: Machine vision-based semi-automatic sorting in parcel sorting relies on specific sensors to read form information and synchronize it to the control system to complete a sort. The cost of traditional Faster RCNN parameter calculation is high, and the requirements for hardware equipment are high. In order to reduce the consumption of hardware resources and improve efficiency, we redesigned the traditional Faster RCNN to reduce the hardware cost requirements. The number of categories in package data sets varies greatly, and category imbalance is also one of the problems. To solve the express parcel category imbalance problem, an adaptive Mosaic method is …proposed to improve the recognition accuracy of fine-grained similar parcels. To be deployed on edge devices with limited computational resources, a new lightweight network, Reparameterization Large Depthwise conv Normalization-based Attention (ReLDWNAM), is proposed. The experimental results show that compared with MobileNetV2, the number of parameters is reduced by 3.07M, and the computing resources are reduced by more than twice, 10 times faster time for feature extraction network, and more than double the overall detection speed of Faster RCNN with little difference in accuracy.

Abstract: In this study, a novel approach based on the reduction of the attribution and the rank preservation is analyzed, which intends to solve the issue of multi-attribute decision making (MADM) with the hesitant fuzzy information. Firstly, several new concepts are shown to simplify the representation of hesitant fuzzy information, such as single point fuzzification estimated value, and single point fuzzification weighted Euclidean distance. Secondly, a new improved HF-TOPSIS method based on the overall situation and these new concepts are put forward, in which the positive and negative ideal solutions are fixed to calculate the complex hesitant fuzzy decision process. The …proposed method in this paper achieves the purpose of compression of the complex hesitant fuzzy information, and the calculation is relatively simple and easy to operate. Finally, two examples are presented to test and verify the credibility and effectiveness of the TOPSIS-Based rank preservation approach, which can achieve the consistency of results before and after evaluation, as well as ensuring rank preservation, while other HF-TOPSIS methods may cause rank reversal problems.

Abstract: This paper focuses on achieving high-level security in Mobile Adhoc Networks (MANET) by incorporating Blockchain technology-based Intrusion Detection systems (IDS). The existing works on MANET security focus on either security prevention or detection. Thus, the security level attained by the prior works is unable to cope with the increasing attacks. To resolve this main issue, this research paper introduces Lightweight Blockchain assisted Intrusion Detection System (LB-IDS) which jointly prevents and detects the attacks held on mobile networks. Initially, the network nodes are authenticated by a lightweight Blockchain-based Multi-Factor Authentication (LBMFA) scheme. This procedure prevents the malicious nodes entry to the …network. Then, data packets are transmitted through the optimal route which is selected by Multi-Objective Strawberry Optimization (MOSO) algorithm. The collected data packets are fed into IDS which classifies the data into normal and malicious packets. For IDS, we proposed Deep Q-Learning (DQL) algorithm which takes actions by learning the environment. As the mitigation step, the Blockchain is updated with the trust value according to the data packet classification. For such continuous monitoring, K-Mode Clustering (KMC) algorithm is proposed. On the whole, the proposed work improves the network security in MANET through Prevention, Detection, and Mitigation. The results of the presented work attains better security level, packet delivery ratio (PDR), energy efficiency, delay, and detection accuracy. Show more

Abstract: In order to ensure the efficiency of power user’s requirements processing, an automatic classification method for demand test of power users based on parallel naive Bayesian algorithm is proposed. Polynomial naive Bayes is selected to build Hadoop cluster, and the feature words of power user’s requirements are selected through chi square test. The weight of each feature item is calculated by word frequency-inverse text frequency index method, and the weight sum of each category is calculated. The weight sum is input into naive Bayes algorithm to output the text classification results of power user’s requirements. At the same time, The …naive Bayes classification algorithm is parallelized and encapsulated to reduce the cost of data movement and exchange in the classification process, and improve the operation efficiency of demand text classification of power user. The experimental results show that this method can accurately extract the feature words of power user’s requirements, effectively realize the automatic classification of power user’s requirements text, and have a more accurate classification effect. The average fitness value of the proposed method tends to be stable after more than 20 training times, and the number of network convergence steps is 7. When the ratio of energy function is about 0.4 and 0.6, the average IU value is the highest. When the required number of texts ranges from 500 to 1500, the delay time of text classification is 0.02 s, and the peak signal-to-noise ratio is more than 33, among which the highest peak signal-to-noise ratio is 42.52, and the normalization coefficient is 1.

Abstract: Basketball has always been a relatively hot sport. However, the level of basketball in China does not maintain the synchronous development trend with competitive sports, which can be seen from the achievements of various international competitions. Many basketball players have retired due to sports injuries. How to avoid and delay the occurrence of injuries to the maximum extent, and make the best competitive state to get the longest time is an urgent problem to be solved in the current basketball training and competition process. Therefore, how to reduce sports damage in basketball sports has become a crucial problem. The …artificial neural network algorithm is widely used in complex system hardware fault detection, medical diagnosis, medical image processing and other complex task, to classify and forecast, and achieved good results. But in the use of the sports injury risk prevention is very limited, in sports injury risk early warning research, predecessors to sports injury factors made a lot of research and the qualitative model was established, but no quantitative evaluation research, and artificial neural network algorithm has good performance in complex system classification and prediction, so the artificial neural network algorithm is applied to sports injury risk early warning study is a very meaningful work, can carry on the accurate to the athlete sports injury risk assessment. Using RBF neural network to achieve dimensional reduction preprocessing of high-dimensional data not only has sufficient theoretical basis, but also it is more superior. Based on the optimization study of RBF neural network algorithm, we study the data-based feature selection RBF neural network, and apply it in the high-dimensional multi-objective optimization decision space and pare to quality and disadvantages prediction. Through the evaluation of the test sample, the early warning model achieves ideal results, so it is feasible to apply to the sports injury risk warning. Show more

Abstract: Traditional mechanical models and sensors face challenges in obtaining the dynamometer diagram of the sucker rod pump system (SRPS) due to difficulties in model solving, high application costs, and maintenance difficulties. Since the electric motor powers the SRPS, its power output is highly correlated with the working state of the entire device. Therefore, a hy-brid method based on electric motor power and SPRS mechanical parameter prediction is proposed to predict the dyna-mometer diagram. First, a long short-term memory neural network (LSTM) is used to establish the LSTM-L model for predicting the dynamometer load based on electric motor power. Then, a …mathematical and physical calculation model (FLM-D) of the dynamometer diagram displacement at the hanging point is constructed by combining the four-bar linkage structure of the sucker rod pump. Finally, the experimental production data of oil wells are collected through an edge computing device to verify the prediction performance of the LSTM-L&FLM-D hybrid model. Experimental results show that the proposed LSTM-L&FLM-D model has a high fitting degree of 99.3%, which is more robust than other models considered in this study, and exhibits better generalization ability.

Abstract: Dealing with classification problems requires the crucial step of feature selection (FS), which helps to reduce data dimensions and shorten classification time. Feature selection and support vector machines (SVM) classification method for banknote dirtiness recognition based on marine predator algorithm (MPA) with mathematical functions was proposed. The mathematical functions were mainly used to improve the optimizatio of MPA for feature parameter selection, and the loss function and kernel function parameters of the SVM are optimized by slime mold optimization algorithm (SMA) and marine predator algorithm. According to the experimental results, the accuracy of identifying dirtiness on the entire surface of …the banknote reaches 89.07%. At the same time, according to the image pattern distribution of the banknoteS, the white area image in the middle left of the collected banknote is selected by the same method to select the feature parameters and identify the dirtiness of the banknoteS. The accuracy of dirtiness recognition in the middle left white area reached 86.67%, this shows that the white area in the middle left can basically completely replace the entire banknote. To confirm the effectiveness of the feature selection method, the proposed optimization method has been compared with four other swarm intelligent optimization algorithms to verify its performance. The experiment results indicate that the enhanced strategy is successful in improving the performance of MPA. Moreover, the robustness analysis proves its effectiveness. Show more
