A Real‐time Lithological Identification Method based on SMOTE‐Tomek and ICSA Optimization

AbstractIn petroleum engineering, real‐time lithology identification is very important for reservoir evaluation, drilling decisions and petroleum geological exploration. A lithology identification method while drilling based on machine learning and mud logging data is studied in this paper. This method can effectively utilize downhole parameters collected in realtime during drilling, to identify lithology in real‐time and provide a reference for optimization of drilling parameters. Given the imbalance of lithology samples, the synthetic minority over‐sampling technique (SMOTE) and Tomek link were used to balance the sample number of five lithologies. Meanwhile, this paper introduces Tent map, random opposition‐based learning and dynamic perceived probability to the original crow search algorithm (CSA), and establishes an improved crow search algorithm (ICSA). In this paper, ICSA is used to optimize the hyperparameter combination of random forest (RF), extremely random trees (ET), extreme gradient boosting (XGB), and light gradient boosting machine (LGBM) models. In addition, this study combines the recognition advantages of the four models. The accuracy of lithology identification by the weighted average probability model reaches 0.877. The study of this paper realizes high‐precision real‐time lithology identification method, which can provide lithology reference for the drilling process.

Feature selection based on dynamic crow search algorithm for high-dimensional data classification

High-dimensional biomedical data plays an important role in disease diagnosis and classification. To analyze the high-dimensional biomedical data, machine learning algorithms are widely used. However, a great amount of redundant, irrelevant or weak correlation features are prevalent in these datasets, which significantly deteriorate the capability of machine learning techniques. It is necessary to select the most informative features and discard the useless ones for enhancing the classification accuracy and reducing the dimensionality. To address this issue, an improved Crow Search Algorithm (CSA) which is known as the Dynamic CSA (DCSA) is proposed to find the optimal feature subset in high-dimensional classification tasks. In DCSA, three modifications are investigated. Firstly, we propose a dynamic bi-level awareness probability to guide the transition between global search and local search. Consequently, the balance between exploration and exploitation is improved. Secondly, levy flight with a unfixed step length control parameter is employed as the global search and the random search mechanism of the original CSA is abandoned. Thirdly, a dynamic flight length strategy is adopted to enhance the local search and speed up convergence. All in all, DCSA is developed as a wrapper feature selection model, where KNN classifier is applied as the feature subset evaluator. The performance of DCSA is measured on seven high-dimensional biomedical datasets. Experimental results show that DCSA outperforms other state-of-the-art methods. Specifically, DCSA achieved the highest average accuracy in six data. In terms of numbers of selected features, DCSA gained the smallest subset size in a seven data. And for SRBCT data, the prediction accuracy of DCSA is at 100%.

This work presents an improved cuckoo search algorithm based on Success Rate (CSA-SR) for optimal allocation of Distributed Generation (DG). This is necessary in order to improve the power quality of the distribution system by minimizing power loss and improving voltage stability. Voltage Stability Index (VSI) is applied to identify restricted unhealthy buses/areas in the distribution networks. The work is implemented on standard IEEE 33 Bus test systems. Newton Raphson Power Flow (NRPF) technique is used in MATLAB R2019b environment for the power flow analysis. The overall IEEE 33 Bus system real power loss obtained from the simulation result is found to be 202.7071MW at the base case. Following the application of 3 DGs using CSA-SR, the real power loss is found to be 113.9630 MW which shows a reduction of 88.441MW which is equivalent to 43.77% as related to the base case. The results minimized the system losses while significantly enhancing the voltage profile of the bus voltages as a result of optimal siting and sizing of the DG. These show that the CSA-SR technique outperformed PSO, which was used to ascertain the effectiveness of the developed scheme.

An Improved Cuckoo Search Algorithm for Maximizing the Coverage Range of Wireless Sensor Networks

The issue of increasing the range covered by a wireless sensor network with restricted sensors is addressed utilizing improved CS employing the PSO algorithm and opposition-based learning (ICS-PSO-OBL). At first, the iteration is carried out by updating the old solution dimension by dimension to achieve independent updating across the dimensions in the high-dimensional optimization problem. The PSO operator is then incorporated to lessen the preference random walk stage's imbalance between exploration and exploitation ability. Exceptional individuals are selected from the population using OBL to boost the chance of finding the optimal solution based on the fitness value. The ICS-PSO-OBL is used to maximize coverage in WSN by converting regional monitoring into point monitoring utilizing the discretization method in WSN. In the experiments, the ICS-PSO-OBL with the standard CS and three CS variants (MACS, ICS-2, and ICS) are utilized to execute the simulation experiment under different numbers of nodes (20 and 30, respectively). The experimental results reveal that the optimized coverage of ICS-PSO-OBL is 18.36%, 7.894%, 15%, and 9.02% higher than that of standard CS, MACS, ICS-2, and ICS when the number of nodes is 20. Moreover, it is 16.94%, 9.61%, 12.27%, and 7.75% higher when the quantity of nodes is 30, the convergence speed of ICS-PSO-OBL, and the distribution of nodes is superior to others.

Design immune robust integral signum of the error controller for cancer tumor growth treatment based on improved crow search algorithm

Cancer is one of the most common diseases around the world, which is difficult to treat due to the versatility and adaptability of cancer cells for facing normal cell death and the invisibility of the immune system. Many types of treatments have been proposed in the literature to deal with this disease, one of these promising methods is the Oncolytic Virotherapy (OV) technique. Controllers have an essential role in this process as they help in carefully managing injection periods, determining appropriate doses, and facing uncertainty in biological parameters. In this paper, an adaptive controller is designed Immune Robust Integral Signum of the Error (IRISE) that give and schedule optimal medication doses to control tumor growth. In addition, an Improved Crow Search Algorithm (ICSA) was used to obtain the optimal parameters for this controller. The controller was validated using a mathematical model of the Interaction Between Tumor Cells and Oncolytic Virus (ITCV) on several cases in different conditions of uncertainty and disturbances. Using a continuous controller to maintain the viral concentration helps to reduce the very high doses of medication needed at the start of therapy, as the viral load can be reduced by half, which in turn reduces concerns about toxicity and costs. The comparative results showed the IRISE based ICSA outperforms the CSA by 0.0 % and 0.02 % at subjects S1 and S3 respectively. In addition, the performance of IRISE controller accommodated most the ITCV model uncertainty in subject S3. In contrast, failure in subject S1 to accommodate stromal cells presence and parameters uncertainty.

By constructing an approximate function using Fourier series to satisfy the conditions of the given differential equation and boundary conditions with minimal error, the proposed method minimizes errors while satisfying the differential equation and boundary conditions. The problem of solving the differential equation is then transformed into an optimization problem with the coefficients of the approximate function as variables. Furthermore, the improved cuckoo search algorithm is employed to solve this optimization problem. The specific steps of applying the improved algorithm to solve differential equations are illustrated through examples. The research outcomes broaden the application scope of the cuckoo optimization algorithm and provide a new perspective for solving differential equations.

Abstract With the integration of wind power into the power system, dispatch becomes more complex and existing algorithms are no longer applicable. This paper focuses on optimizing carbon emissions in wind farm generation while considering issues related to wind power integration and carbon trading. An optimal dispatch algorithm was designed with the objective of minimizing total costs, which was then solved using the cuckoo search (CS) algorithm. Additionally, an adaptive improvement was made to the CS algorithm to obtain the improved cuckoo search (ICS) algorithm. An analysis was conducted on a case study with 10 units. The ICS algorithm obtained higher quality solutions, with a total cost of $ 632 719 and a calculation time of 0.51 minutes, which was superior to the solutions obtained by the particle swarm optimization and CS algorithms. Fluctuations in the confidence level of system rotation reserve capacity could lead to variations in the final system cost, which needs to be adjusted according to actual conditions. The dispatch scheme obtained by the ICS algorithm showed reduced carbon emissions, total costs, and better performance when compared with the optimal dispatch algorithm in different scenarios. The results show that the proposed methods are reliable and practical.

Convex combination of online secondary path modeling and improved cuckoo search for active noise control

This paper proposes an active noise control (ANC) algorithm based on convex combination of the online secondary path modeling (OSPM) and improved cuckoo search (ICS) algorithms. The ICS algorithm does not request the secondary path model to optimize the control filter. Therefore, the ICS algorithm is theoretically not affected by a varying secondary path, but its convergence is very slow. In contrast, the OSPM algorithm achieves faster convergence but is vulnerable to a sudden change in the secondary path. The proposed ANC algorithm combines the merits of both the OSPM and ICS algorithms by convex combination. Simulation results show that the proposed ANC algorithm can achieve better performance than the conventional ANC algorithm especially when the secondary path changes drastically.

A rate-dependent asymmetric Prandtl–Ishilinskii (RAPI) model was proposed to tackle the serious rate-dependent hysteresis nonlinearity of the giant magnetostrictive actuator(GMA) output. First, a polynomial function was introduced based on the PI model, and hysteresis factors were introduced to the Play operator, which accurately described the asymmetrical characteristic of the actuator output. On this basis, rate-dependent parameters were added to establish a rate-dependent RAPI model. Second, an improved cuckoo search (ICS) algorithm was proposed to solve the difficulty in the parameter identification of the RAPI model. For the ICS algorithm, the algorithm stability and optimization accuracy were improved using the adaptive step (AS) strategy and bird’s nest disturbance strategy. Then, the effectiveness of the ICS algorithm was tested by comparing it with other parameter identification algorithms. Finally, the rate-dependent RAPI model was verified by combining the output data of the giant magnetostrictive actuator under different frequencies. The results show that the rate-dependent RAPI model exhibits a higher accuracy than the PI model, thus verifying the effectiveness of the rate-dependent RAPI model.

Optimal selection of cluster head in wireless sensor networks using particle swarm optimization (PSO)

In a wide range of applications, such as the military, healthcare, and environmental monitoring, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have emerged as a key player. Cluster-based WSNs are a viable method for enhancing the life of the sensor network. Choosing the proper cluster head for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is a key undertaking that affects the network's performance. Current approaches for selecting the cluster head have a number of drawbacks, such as nodes dying too quickly, uneven energy utilization, and shorter network lifespan. Additionally, conventional techniques like fixed Cluster Head and randomized Clustering are ineffective at extending the network lifetime.

The simulation result shows that the performance improvement of the developed algorithm PSO in terms of network lifetime is 10% against Improved Cuckoo Search Algorithm (ICSA) and 25% against Hybrid Crow Search Algorithm (HCSA), energy consumption is 15% against ICSA and 20% against HCSA, and number of alive node is 4% against ICSA and 6% against HCSA respectively. Therefore, our developed algorithm PSO outperforms ICSA and HCSA in terms of the aforementioned parameters.

Precision local anomaly positioning technology for large complex electromechanical systems

In recent years, Prognostics Health Management (PHM) technology has become an important reference technology in fields such as avionics and electromechanical systems due to its ability to reduce costs and achieve state based maintenance and autonomous support. However, with the operation of large and complex electromechanical systems (ES), the data generated gradually ages the status of components, and traditional PHM technology is difficult to solve the problem of electromechanical system components becoming more complex. Based on this, this study takes the hydraulic actuator cylinder as an example to construct a local component fault detection model. Firstly, fault data features are extracted using wavelet packet energy spectrum, and then a fault detection model is constructed based on support vector machine (SVM). In response to the shortcomings of SVM, a smooth support vector machine (SSVM) is proposed to replace SVM, and an improved crow search algorithm (ICSA) is used to improve SVM. Finally, an intelligent detection model for hydraulic actuator cylinder faults based on ICSA-SSVM was constructed based on the above algorithms. The experimental results show that the ICSA-SSVM model has the fastest Rate of convergence, among which, the positioning accuracy is 0.96, the fitting degree is 0.984, the fault detection accuracy is 99.16 %, the recall value is 94.52 %, and the AUC value is 0.986, all of which are better than the existing fault detection models. From this, it can be seen that the precise local anomaly localization technology for large-scale complex electromechanical systems based on the ICSA-SSVM algorithm proposed in this study can improve the efficiency and accuracy of fault detection, achieve accurate and intelligent detection of ES local anomalies, and have certain positive significance for the development of China’s industry.
