An Analysis of the Operation Factors of Three PSO-GA-ED Meta-Heuristic Search Methods for Solving a Single-Objective Optimization Problem.

In this study, we evaluate several nongradient (evolutionary) search strategies for minimizing mathematical function expressions. We developed and tested the genetic algorithms, particle swarm optimization, and differential evolution in order to assess their general efficacy in optimization of mathematical equations. A comparison is then made between the results and the efficiency, which is determined by the number of iterations, the observed accuracy, and the overall run time. Additionally, the optimization employs 12 functions from Easom, Holder table, Michalewicz, Ackley, Rastrigin, Rosen, Rosen Brock, Shubert, Sphere, Schaffer, Himmelblau's, and Spring Force Vanderplaats. Furthermore, the crossover rate, mutation rate, and scaling factor are evaluated to determine the effectiveness of the following algorithms. According to the results of the comparison of optimization algorithms, the DE algorithm has the lowest time complexity of the others. Furthermore, GA demonstrated the greatest degree of temporal complexity. As a result, using the PSO method produces different results when repeating the same algorithm with low reliability in terms of locating the optimal location.

PSOWNNs-CNN: A Computational Radiology for Breast Cancer Diagnosis Improvement Based on Image Processing Using Machine Learning Methods.

Early diagnosis of breast cancer is an important component of breast cancer therapy. A variety of diagnostic platforms can provide valuable information regarding breast cancer patients, including image-based diagnostic techniques. However, breast abnormalities are not always easy to identify. Mammography, ultrasound, and thermography are some of the technologies developed to detect breast cancer. Using image processing and artificial intelligence techniques, the computer enables radiologists to identify chest problems more accurately. The purpose of this article was to review various approaches to detecting breast cancer using artificial intelligence and image processing. The authors present an innovative approach for identifying breast cancer using machine learning methods. Compared to current approaches, such as CNN, our particle swarm optimized wavelet neural network (PSOWNN) method appears to be relatively superior. The use of machine learning methods is clearly beneficial in terms of improved performance, efficiency, and quality of images, which are crucial to the most innovative medical applications. According to a comparison of the process's 905 images to those of other illnesses, 98.6% of the disorders are correctly identified. In summary, PSOWNNs, therefore, have a specificity of 98.8%. Furthermore, PSOWNNs have a precision of 98.6%, which means that, despite the high number of women diagnosed with breast cancer, only 830 (95.2%) are diagnosed. In other words, 95.2% of images are correctly classified. PSOWNNs are more accurate than other machine learning algorithms, SVM, KNN, and CNN.

The Progress of Medical Image Semantic Segmentation Methods for Application in COVID-19 Detection.

Image medical semantic segmentation has been employed in various areas, including medical imaging, computer vision, and intelligent transportation. In this study, the method of semantic segmenting images is split into two sections: the method of the deep neural network and previous traditional method. The traditional method and the published dataset for segmentation are reviewed in the first step. The presented aspects, including all-convolution network, sampling methods, FCN connector with CRF methods, extended convolutional neural network methods, improvements in network structure, pyramid methods, multistage and multifeature methods, supervised methods, semiregulatory methods, and nonregulatory methods, are then thoroughly explored in current methods based on the deep neural network. Finally, a general conclusion on the use of developed advances based on deep neural network concepts in semantic segmentation is presented.

Combined Feedback Feedforward Control of a 3-Link Musculoskeletal System Based on the Iterative Training Method.

The investigation and study of the limbs, especially the human arm, have inspired a wide range of humanoid robots, such as movement and muscle redundancy, as a human motor system. One of the main issues related to musculoskeletal systems is the joint redundancy that causes no unique answer for each angle in return for an arm's end effector's arbitrary trajectory. As a result, there are many architectures like the torques applied to the joints. In this study, an iterative learning controller was applied to control the 3-link musculoskeletal system's motion with 6 muscles. In this controller, the robot's task space was assumed as the feedforward of the controller and muscle space as the controller feedback. In both task and muscle spaces, some noises cause the system to be unstable, so a forgetting factor was used to a convergence task space output in the neighborhood of the desired trajectories. The results show that the controller performance has improved gradually by iterating the learning steps, and the error rate has decreased so that the trajectory passed by the end effector has practically matched the desired trajectory after 1000 iterations.

Presentation of a Segmentation Method for a Diabetic Retinopathy Patient's Fundus Region Detection Using a Convolutional Neural Network.

Diabetic retinopathy is characteristic of a local distribution that involves early-stage risk factors and can forecast the evolution of the illness or morphological lesions related to the abnormality of retinal blood flows. Regional variations in retinal blood flow and modulation of retinal capillary width in the macular area and the retinal environment are also linked to the course of diabetic retinopathy. Despite the fact that diabetic retinopathy is frequent nowadays, it is hard to avoid. An ophthalmologist generally determines the seriousness of the retinopathy of the eye by directly examining color photos and evaluating them by visually inspecting the fundus. It is an expensive process because of the vast number of diabetic patients around the globe. We used the IDRiD data set that contains both typical diabetic retinopathic lesions and normal retinal structures. We provided a CNN architecture for the detection of the target region of 80 patients' fundus imagery. Results demonstrate that the approach described here can nearly detect 83.84% of target locations. This result can potentially be utilized to monitor and regulate patients.

The Optimal Adaptive-Based Neurofuzzy Control of the 3-DOF Musculoskeletal System of Human Arm in a 2D Plane.

Each individual performs different daily activities such as reaching and lifting with his hand that shows the important role of robots designed to estimate the position of the objects or the muscle forces. Understanding the body's musculoskeletal system's learning control mechanism can lead us to develop a robust control technique that can be applied to rehabilitation robotics. The musculoskeletal model of the human arm used in this study is a 3-link robot coupled with 6 muscles which a neurofuzzy controller of TSK type along multicritic agents is used for training and learning fuzzy rules. The adaptive critic agents based on reinforcement learning oversees the controller's parameters and avoids overtraining. The simulation results show that in both states of with/without optimization, the controller can well track the desired trajectory smoothly and with acceptable accuracy. The magnitude of forces in the optimized model is significantly lower, implying the controller's correct operation. Also, links take the same trajectory with a lower overall displacement than that of the nonoptimized mode, which is consistent with the hand's natural motion, seeking the most optimum trajectory.
