CMRLCCOA: Multi-Strategy Enhanced Coati Optimization Algorithm for Engineering Designs and Hypersonic Vehicle Path Planning.

The recently introduced coati optimization algorithm suffers from drawbacks such as slow search velocity and weak optimization precision. An enhanced coati optimization algorithm called CMRLCCOA is proposed. Firstly, the Sine chaotic mapping function is used to initialize the CMRLCCOA as a way to obtain better-quality coati populations and increase the diversity of the population. Secondly, the generated candidate solutions are updated again using the convex lens imaging reverse learning strategy to expand the search range. Thirdly, the Lévy flight strategy increases the search step size, expands the search range, and avoids the phenomenon of convergence too early. Finally, utilizing the crossover strategy can effectively reduce the search blind spots, making the search particles constantly close to the global optimum solution. The four strategies work together to enhance the efficiency of COA and to boost the precision and steadiness. The performance of CMRLCCOA is evaluated on CEC2017 and CEC2019. The superiority of CMRLCCOA is comprehensively demonstrated by comparing the output of CMRLCCOA with the previously submitted algorithms. Besides the results of iterative convergence curves, boxplots and a nonparametric statistical analysis illustrate that the CMRLCCOA is competitive, significantly improves the convergence accuracy, and well avoids local optimal solutions. Finally, the performance and usefulness of CMRLCCOA are proven through three engineering application problems. A mathematical model of the hypersonic vehicle cruise trajectory optimization problem is developed. The result of CMRLCCOA is less than other comparative algorithms and the shortest path length for this problem is obtained.

Generative adversarial network for Multimodal Contrastive Domain Sharing based on efficient invariant feature-centric growth analysis improved brain tumor classification.

Efficient and accurate classification of brain tumor categories remains a critical challenge in medical imaging. While existing techniques have made strides, their reliance on generic features often leads to suboptimal results. To overcome these issues, Multimodal Contrastive Domain Sharing Generative Adversarial Network for Improved Brain Tumor Classification Based on Efficient Invariant Feature Centric Growth Analysis (MCDS-GNN-IBTC-CGA) is proposed in this manuscript.Here, the input imagesare amassed from brain tumor dataset. Then the input images are preprocesssed using Range - Doppler Matched Filter (RDMF) for improving the quality of the image. Then Ternary Pattern and Discrete Wavelet Transforms (TPDWT) is employed for feature extraction and focusing on white, gray mass, edge correlation, and depth features. The proposed method leverages Multimodal Contrastive Domain Sharing Generative Adversarial Network (MCDS-GNN) to categorize brain tumor images into Glioma, Meningioma, and Pituitary tumors. Finally, Coati Optimization Algorithm (COA) optimizes MCDS-GNN's weight parameters. The proposed MCDS-GNN-IBTC-CGA is empirically evaluated utilizing accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, Precision, F1-score,Mean Square Error (MSE). Here, MCDS-GNN-IBTC-CGA attains 12.75%, 11.39%, 13.35%, 11.42% and 12.98% greater accuracy comparing to the existingstate-of-the-arts techniques, likeMRI brain tumor categorization utilizing parallel deep convolutional neural networks (PDCNN-BTC), attention-guided convolutional neural network for the categorization of braintumor (AGCNN-BTC), intelligent driven deep residual learning method for the categorization of braintumor (DCRN-BTC),fully convolutional neural networks method for the classification of braintumor (FCNN-BTC), Convolutional Neural Network and Multi-Layer Perceptron based brain tumor classification (CNN-MLP-BTC) respectively.

The proposed MCDS-GNN-IBTC-CGA method starts by cleaning brain tumor images with RDMF and extracting features using TPDWT, focusing on color and texture. Subsequently, the MCDS-GNN artificial intelligence system categorizes tumors into types like Glioma and Meningioma. To enhance accuracy, COA fine-tunes the MCDS-GNN parameters. Ultimately, this approach aids in more effective diagnosis and treatment of brain tumors.

Robust load-frequency control of islanded urban microgrid using 1PD-3DOF-PID controller including mobile EV energy storage.

Electricity generation in Islanded Urban Microgrids (IUMG) now relies heavily on a diverse range of Renewable Energy Sources (RES). However, the dependable utilization of these sources hinges upon efficient Electrical Energy Storage Systems (EESs). As the intermittent nature of RES output and the low inertia of IUMGs often lead to significant frequency fluctuations, the role of EESs becomes pivotal. While these storage systems effectively mitigate frequency deviations, their high costs and elevated power density requirements necessitate alternative strategies to balance power supply and demand. In recent years, substantial attention has turned towards harnessing Electric Vehicle (EV) batteries as Mobile EV Energy Storage (MEVES) units to counteract frequency variations in IUMGs. Integrating MEVES into the IUMG infrastructure introduces complexity and demands a robust control mechanism for optimal operation. Therefore, this paper introduces a robust, high-order degree of freedom cascade controller known as the 1PD-3DOF-PID (1 + Proportional + Derivative-Three Degrees Of Freedom Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller for Load Frequency Control (LFC) in IUMGs integrated with MEVES. The controller's parameters are meticulously optimized using the Coati Optimization Algorithm (COA) which mimics coati behavior in nature, marking its debut in LFC of IUMG applications. Comparative evaluations against classical controllers and algorithms, such as 3DOF-PID, PID, Reptile Search Algorithm, and White Shark Optimizer, are conducted under diverse IUMG operating scenarios. The testbed comprises various renewable energy sources, including wind turbines, photovoltaics, Diesel Engine Generators (DEGs), Fuel Cells (FCs), and both Mobile and Fixed energy storage units. Managing power balance in this entirely renewable environment presents a formidable challenge, prompting an examination of the influence of MEVES, DEG, and FC as controllable units to mitigate active power imbalances. Metaheuristic algorithms in MATLAB-SIMULINK platforms are employed to identify the controller's gains across all case studies, ensuring the maintenance of IUMG system frequency within predefined limits. Simulation results convincingly establish the superiority of the proposed controller over other counterparts. Furthermore, the controller's robustness is rigorously tested under ± 25% variations in specific IUMG parameters, affirming its resilience. Statistical analyses reinforce the robust performance of the COA-based 1PD-3DOF-PID control method. This work highlights the potential of the COA Technique-optimized 1PD-3DOF-PID controller for IUMG control, marking its debut application in the LFC domain for IUMGs. This comprehensive study contributes valuable insights into enhancing the reliability and stability of Islanded Urban Microgrids while integrating Mobile EV Energy Storage, marking a significant advancement in the field of Load-Frequency Control.

An enhanced Coati Optimization Algorithm for global optimization and feature selection in EEG emotion recognition.

Emotion recognition based on Electroencephalography (EEG) signals has garnered significant attention across diverse domains including healthcare, education, information sharing, and gaming, among others. Despite its potential, the absence of a standardized feature set poses a challenge in efficiently classifying various emotions. Addressing the issue of high dimensionality, this paper introduces an advanced variant of the Coati Optimization Algorithm (COA), called eCOA for global optimization and selecting the best subset of EEG features for emotion recognition. Specifically, COA suffers from local optima and imbalanced exploitation abilities as other metaheuristic methods. The proposed eCOA incorporates the COA and RUNge Kutta Optimizer (RUN) algorithms. The Scale Factor (SF) and Enhanced Solution Quality (ESQ) mechanism from RUN are applied to resolve the raised shortcomings of COA. The proposed eCOA algorithm has been extensively evaluated using the CEC'22 test suite and two EEG emotion recognition datasets, DEAP and DREAMER. Furthermore, the eCOA is applied for binary and multi-class classification of emotions in the dimensions of valence, arousal, and dominance using a multi-layer perceptron neural network (MLPNN). The experimental results revealed that the eCOA algorithm has more powerful search capabilities than the original COA and seven well-known counterpart methods related to statistical, convergence, and diversity measures. Furthermore, eCOA can efficiently support feature selection to find the best EEG features to maximize performance on four quadratic emotion classification problems compared to the methods of its counterparts. The suggested method obtains a classification accuracy of 85.17% and 95.21% in the binary classification of low and high arousal emotions in two public datasets: DEAP and DREAMER, respectively, which are 5.58% and 8.98% superior to existing approaches working on the same datasets for different subjects, respectively.

Dynamic Coati Optimization Algorithm for Biomedical Classification Tasks.

Medical datasets are primarily made up of numerous pointless and redundant elements in a collection of patient records. None of these characteristics are necessary for a medical decision-making process. Conversely, a large amount of data leads to increased dimensionality and decreased classifier performance in terms of machine learning. Numerous approaches have recently been put out to address this issue, and the results indicate that feature selection can be a successful remedy. To meet the various needs of input patterns, medical diagnostic tasks typically involve learning a suitable categorization model. The k-Nearest Neighbors algorithm (kNN) classifier's classification performance is typically decreased by the input variables' abundance of irrelevant features. To simplify the kNN classifier, essential attributes of the input variables have been searched using the feature selection approach. This paper presents the Coati Optimization Algorithm (DCOA) in a dynamic form as a feature selection technique where each iteration of the optimization process involves the introduction of a different feature. We enhance the exploration and exploitation capability of DCOA by employing dynamic opposing candidate solutions. The most impressive feature of DCOA is that it does not require any preparatory parameter fine-tuning to the most popular metaheuristic algorithms. The CEC'22 test suite and nine medical datasets with various dimension sizes were used to evaluate the performance of the original COA and the proposed dynamic version. The statistical results were validated using the Bonferroni-Dunn test and Kendall's W test and showed the superiority of DCOA over seven well-known metaheuristic algorithms with an overall accuracy of 89.7%, a feature selection of 24%, a sensitivity of 93.35% a specificity of 96.81%, and a precision of 93.90%.
