Cuckoo Search Optimization Algorithm Research Articles

Research on photovoltaic MPPT under complex conditions based on an advanced great wall construction algorithm method.

To mitigate the challenges posed by the non-linear multi-peak power-voltage output characteristics of photovoltaic (PV) systems operating under partial shading conditions, which often lead to suboptimal performance of conventional Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithms, a novel approach was introduced. We introduce the LGWGCA-P&O method, which synergistically combines an modified Great Wall Construction Algorithm (LGWGCA) with the Perturbation and Observation (P&O) technique. The LGWGCA is refined with a positional update mechanism inspired by the Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) algorithm, optimizing the distribution of solution agents, while a Levy flight strategy is employed to reduce excessive randomness during agent replacement and recombination, thereby accelerating the tracking process. As the algorithm approaches the maximum power point, it seamlessly transitions to the P&O method, leveraging its rapid convergence to ensure precise and efficient power point identification. Experimental results demonstrate that the LGWGCA-P&O method achieves a PV conversion efficiency exceeding 99.96%, significantly minimizing power losses during MPPT. Furthermore, the method enhances convergence speed by approximately 40% compared to traditional GWO-P&O approaches, and it consistently outperforms Particle Swarm Optimization and Cuckoo Search Optimization algorithms under extreme conditions, demonstrating superior computational efficiency and robustness.

Optimized underwater light attenuation prior-based depth estimation and adaptive feature fusion CNN for underwater image and video enhancement

Underwater images and videos play an essential communication tool in exploring ocean resources and understanding underwater scene perception. The underwater imaging environment and the complex lighting conditions degrade the quality of the images and make them low contrast, color deviation, and blurring. These degraded images lack effective target recognition information, significantly impacting the performance of underwater application systems. To solve the above issues, a new module for underwater video as well as image enhancement is proposed. The input video is given to the frame extraction phase for converting the video into the frame. Thereafter, the blur detection and determination are done using Laplacian's variance technique for determining blurred images. The depth estimation is done using Underwater Light Attenuation Prior (ULAP), wherein coefficients are determined using the proposed Competitive Multi-Verse bird swarm Optimization (CMVBSO). The CMVBSO is combined by integrating a competitive multiverse optimizer (CMVO) and a Bird Swarm Algorithm (BSA). The blurred value, input video frame and depth estimated output are given to adaptive feature fusion CNN in which training is done utilizing Manta-Ray Foraging Lion Optimization (MRLLO). The pixel enhancement is carried out using a Type II Fuzzy system and Cuckoo Search optimization algorithm filter (T2FCS) filter. The proposed CMVBSO_ULAP provided better performance with a Peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) of 35.037 dB, Mean square error (MSE) of 3.684, Structural similarity index (SSIM) of 0.911, underwater image quality measure (UIQM) of 5.266 and Underwater Color Image Quality Evaluation (UCIQE) of 0.818 respectively.

Optimizing breast cancer diagnosis: Harnessing the power of nature-inspired metaheuristics for feature selection with soft voting classifiers

Breast cancer is a widespread and serious condition that poses a significant threat to women's health globally, contributing significantly to mortality rates. Machine learning tools play a critical role in both the effective management and early detection of this disease. Feature selection (FS) methods are essential for identifying the most impactful features to improve breast cancer diagnosis. These methods reduce data dimensionality, eliminate irrelevant information, enhance learning accuracy, and improve the comprehensibility of results. However, the increasing complexity and dimensionality of cancer data pose substantial challenges to many existing FS methods, thereby reducing their efficiency and effectiveness. To overcome these challenges, numerous studies have demonstrated the success of nature-inspired optimization (NIO) algorithms across various domains. These algorithms excel in mimicking natural processes and efficiently solving complex optimization problems. Building on these advancements, we propose an innovative approach that combines powerful feature selection methods based on NIO techniques with a soft voting classifier. The NIO techniques employed include the Genetic Algorithm, Cuckoo Search, Salp Swarm, Jaya, Flower Pollination, Whale Optimization, Sine Cosine, Harris Hawks, and Grey Wolf Optimization algorithms. The Soft Voting Classifier integrates various machine learning models, including Support Vector Machines, Gaussian Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, Decision Tree, and Gradient Boosting. These are used to improve the effectiveness and accuracy of breast cancer diagnosis. The proposed approach has been empirically evaluated using a variety of evaluation measures, such as F1 score, precision, recall, accuracy and Area Under the Curve (AUC), for performance comparison with individual machine learning techniques. The results demonstrate that the soft-voting ensemble technique, particularly when combined with feature selection based on the Jaya algorithm, outperforms all individual classifiers on the breast cancer dataset. It achieves the highest scores for accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and AUC, with values of 99.6 %, 99.21 %, 100 %, 99.6 %, and 99.6 %, respectively. Following closely, both the Genetic Algorithm and Salp Swarm feature selection demonstrate strong performance, with scores of 99.5 %, 100 %, 99 %, 99.5 %, and 99.5 %, respectively. Furthermore, the approach's effectiveness in identifying the minimal set of relevant features has been evaluated. Given the critical importance of selecting relevant features in complex cancer datasets, the proposed method proves to be a valuable tool for achieving early detection and improved interpretability. This method can also support healthcare professionals in making well-informed decisions regarding cancer diagnosis and treatment strategies.

Multi-objective discrete Cuckoo search algorithm for optimization of bag-of-tasks scheduling in fog computing environment

Internet of Things (IoT) applications are mostly time-sensitive and require reliable executions. The majority of IoT applications experience low quality of service (QoS) because of the intrinsic delay in utilizing the far-distant cloud infrastructures. To experience better QoS, fog computing as a complementary facility for cloud infrastructure is extended near the IoT devices. The bag of tasks (BoTs) IoT applications include a number of independent tasks each of which needs a certain amount of processing time so it is favorable to experience the lowest total execution time, makespan, for all applications. In addition, reliable execution guarantees the business continuity of IoT applications. Therefore, this paper presents a fog computing scheduler for the execution of BoT IoT applications in the fog platforms to minimize makespan and maximize the reliability execution at the same time. To this end, a new reliability model is presented. Then, the BoTs scheduling issue is formulated into a multi-objective discrete optimization problem with makespan and reliability optimality viewpoints. To solve this combinatorial problem, a multi-objective discrete cuckoo search algorithm (MoDCSA) is extended. The proposed MoDCSA optimization algorithm takes the benefit of several discrete operators each of which is smartly invoked. The quality of gained results from simulations of extensive scenarios verifies the effectiveness of the proposed MoDCSA scheduling algorithm which has 2.27%, 3.89%, 5.45%, 5.40%, and 4.55% improvement in terms of makespan and 1.99%, 5.11%, 6.39%, 7.95%, and 7.78% improvement in terms of reliability against MoBLA, MoGA, MoGWO, MoSA, and MoGSA comparative algorithms respectively.

In agriculture, irrigation is essential for providing water to crops based on the type of soil they are grown in. To achieve success in farming, it is important to evaluate soil fertility, temperature, rainfall and set irrigation schedules. In this work, to enhance agricultural production, an IoT-based hydration system that utilizes soil moisture and humidity sensors to keep an eye on soil conditions and water crops precisely is developed. This system effectively manages water usage in farming, resulting in an efficient conservation of water resources. The proposed model is categorized into four main phases: (a) Pre-processing; (b) Clustering; (c) Feature extraction; (d) Classification. Initially, the collected raw data is pre-processed via a data-cleaning approach. From the pre-processed data, DB scan is used to cluster the data. From the clustered data, the important feature is extracted by using statistical features like mean, standard deviation, kurtosis, and skewness. Subsequently, from the extracted features, the most optimal features are selected via a new hybrid meta-heuristic optimization model referred to as Cuckoo search-based Levy adolescent identity search algorithm (CLAIS). The projected CLAIS model is the conceptual amalgamation of the standard Cuckoo search optimization (CSO) and adolescent identity search algorithm (AISA), respectively. CLAIS-based deep Q network (CLAIS-DQN) classifier is used to classify the optimal features. DQN is an efficient solution to offload the request optimally which improves the overall performance of the network. The proposed model is implemented using the PYTHON platform. The proposed model has recorded the highest detection accuracy as 96%.

Using the Cuckoo Optimization to Initialize the Harmony Memory in Harmony Search Algorithm to Find New Hybrid (CSHS) Algorithm

The current paper seeks to present a hybrid harmony search algorithm, using CS and HS. The proposed algorithm takes advantage of using a method to initialize the harmony memory (HM) with the help of the cuckoo search optimization algorithm. The HS algorithm is inspired by the method used by musicians to create and enhance harmony in music. It follows 3 main principles of pitch adjustment (PA), HM consideration (HMC), and random selection (RS). The performance of HS can be affected by its poor accuracy in optimization and speed of convergence, 2 main issues with it. However, to improve the HS algorithm, Cuckoo search can be used as it can do a local search using one parameter only, other than the size of the population, making it work more efficiently. This current method has been tested for its validity and efficiency in performance by being implemented on many international standard optimization problems. The results confirm the fact that the performance of the currently proposed algorithm is better and more efficient in finding solutions compared to HS and other algorithms.

Filtered Ofdm System Model for Papr Reduction in the Growth Of 5g

A proposed waveform for fifth generation (5G) communications is the filtered orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (F-OFDM) system. Filtering-based waveform frameworks distinguish themselves by suppressing out-of-band emission and asynchronous transmission. Meanwhile, the high Peak-To-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) remains a barrier to new waveform possibilities. Partials transmit sequence (PTS) is a successful strategy for reducing high PAPR in multicarrier networks. This work presents a multicarrier in OFDM and UFMC based on the Filter Bank Multicarrier (FBMC) waveform for communication systems. Furthermore, FBMC waveforms have limited orthogonality between subcarriers, which can mitigate Doppler and multipath effects. This FBMC approach uses the cosine law to filter the traffic signal, and the Welch algorithm is offered for segmentation, which lowers noise in estimated power spectra. As a result, a hybrid Selective Mapping (SLM) with Cuckoo Search and Ant Lion Optimization (CS-ALO) algorithms is suggested using the FBMC framework to reduce PAPR in the OFDM system. The proposed work is implemented, and detailed experimental research is carried out to show the increased performance in 5G networks. Based on a fair comparison, the F-OFDM scheme outperforms previous approaches in terms of BER and multicarrier system capacity. Simulation results show that the proposed waveform design and processing method outperform standard OFDM and F-OFDM methods in PAPR reduction and communication integrated systems.

Hybrid of Meta-Heuristic Techniques Based on Cuckoo Search and Particle Swarm Optimizations for Solar PV Systems Subjected to Partially Shaded Conditions

Solar energy has a significant role in meeting rising energy demand while reducing environmental impact. Solar radiation and temperature are important factors on which PV energy production depends, but its optimal operation point is influenced by variations in the aforementioned environmental factors. The nonlinear behavior of the solar system and the variable nature of environmental conditions make determining the optimal operation point difficult. To overcome these difficulties, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) finding techniques are used to extract the optimal power from the photovoltaic energy system. The behavior of MPPT varies for different weather conditions, such as partial shading conditions (PSC), and uniform irradiance conditions. Conventional techniques are simple, quick, and efficient for tracing the MPP quickly, but they are limited to uniform weather conditions. In addition, these techniques don't achieve the Global Maxima (GM) and mostly stay stuck at the Local Maxima (LM). The Meta-Heuristic techniques aid in finding the GM, but their primary disadvantage is that they take a longer time to trace the Global Maxima. This study addresses the problem by combining Cuckoo Search (CS) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms, leading to a hybrid (CSPSO) technique to extract the global maximum (GM). To verify the effectiveness of the suggested technique, its performance is examined under three different irradiance patterns for different PV array configurations (such as 3S and 4S3P) through MATLAB simulation. The outcomes of CSPSO are compared with the prior well-known Meta-Heuristic techniques such as Cuckoo Search (CS), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Crow Search Algorithm (CSA). The results show the suggested technique excels over other techniques in terms of accuracy, tracking efficiency, and tracking speed. The suggested technique is capable of tracking GMPP with an average efficiency of 99.925% and an average tracking time of 0.13 s in all shading patterns studied.

Geometrical and material optimization of the functionally graded doubly-curved shell by metaheuristic optimization algorithms

This paper presents the simultaneous geometrical and material optimization of functionally graded doubly-curved shells under static load and free vibration. The weak form of governing equations is derived from third-order shear and normal deformation theory. Bending and free vibration analyses were conducted using the finite element method. The functionally graded material (FGM) is composed of metal and ceramic, and Voigt’s rule of mixtures is applied to capture the characteristics of FGMs throughout the shell thickness direction. In this regard, two multi-objective optimization algorithms (i.e., multi-objective particle swarm optimization and multi-objective cuckoo search optimization algorithms are employed. The objective functions combine minimizing the maximum normalized displacement and mass and maximizing the first dimensionless frequency. The results show that where minimizing the mass of the FG shell structure was considered an objective function, the value of the power index is equal to zero for almost all studied cases.

The demand for clean and renewable energy is increasing due to environmental concerns. Photovoltaic (PV) system is very popular from the renewable sources and its usage is increasing. The PV system power transfer efficiency depends on several factors such electrical characteristics of loads, solar irradiation, shading condition and panel temperature. The process of transferring maximum possible power to load from PV system by adjusting the system parameters is called maximum power point tracking (MPPT). Under the partially shaded conditions, multiple power peaks are created in the PV curves and makes the MPPT is a non-convex problem. It is a challenging problem to track the global maximum power point (GMPP) under partially shaded conditions. It is essential to recognize the GMPP and restart the string as early as possible to prevent the physical as well as economical damage. In this paper, a new hybrid algorithm for MPPT is proposed and called as QASHO, a combination of Spotted Hyena optimization (SHO) and Quadrature approximation (QA) technique.

Breast cancer is a pathological condition characterized by the abnormal proliferation of cells inside the breast tissue. The biggest challenge at the moment is determining the most optimal subset from large datasets. Numerous methodologies have been presented for the purpose of selecting the most suitable subset from datasets with high dimensions. However, the outcomes have proven to be insufficient in effectively addressing extensive quantities of multidimensional datasets. This publication presents a proposal for an efficient approach of selecting numerous feature subsets and performing classification on Multidimensional Datasets (MDD). In this study, the Moment Invariant Wavelet Feature Extraction (MI-WFE) approach is employed for the purpose of feature extraction. The New Adaptive Hybrid Levy Flight based Cuckoo Search Optimization Algorithm is employed to identify the most pertinent subset of features.

Cuckoo Coupled Improved Grey Wolf Algorithm for PID Parameter Tuning

In today’s automation control systems, the PID controller, as a core technology, is widely used to maintain the system output near the set value. However, in some complex control environments, such as the application of ball screw-driven rotating motors, traditional PID parameter adjustment methods may not meet the requirements of high precision, high performance, and fast response time of the system, making it difficult to ensure the stability and production efficiency of the mechanical system. Therefore, this paper proposes a cuckoo search optimisation coupled with an improved grey wolf optimisation (CSO_IGWO) algorithm to tune PID controller parameters, aiming at resolving the problems of the traditional grey wolf optimisation (GWO) algorithm, such as slow optimisation speed, weak exploitation ability, and ease of falling into a locally optimal solution. First, the tent chaotic mapping method is used to initialise the population instead of using random initialization to enrich the diversity of individuals in the population. Second, the value of the control parameter is adjusted by the nonlinear decline method to balance the exploration and development capacity of the population. Finally, inspired by the cuckoo search optimisation (CSO) algorithm, the Levy flight strategy is introduced to update the position equation so that grey wolf individuals are enabled to make a big jump to expand the search area and not easily fall into local optimisation. To verify the effectiveness of the algorithm, this study first verifies the superiority of the improved algorithm with eight benchmark test functions. Then, comparing this method with the other two improved grey wolf algorithms, it can be seen that this method increases the average and standard deviation by an order of magnitude and effectively improves the global optimal search ability and convergence speed. Finally, in the experimental section, three parameter tuning methods were compared from four aspects: overshoot, steady-state time, rise time, and steady-state error, using the ball screw motor as the control object. In terms of overall dynamic performance, the method proposed in this article is superior to the other three parameter tuning methods.
