    Hao Cui, Yanling Guo, Yaning Xiao, Yangwei Wang, Jian Li, Yapeng Zhang, Haoyu Zhang
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.137, No.2, pp. 1635-1675, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.026019

    Abstract Harris Hawks Optimization (HHO) is a novel meta-heuristic algorithm that imitates the predation characteristics of Harris Hawk and combines Lévy flight to solve complex multidimensional problems. Nevertheless, the basic HHO algorithm still has certain limitations, including the tendency to fall into the local optima and poor convergence accuracy. Coot Bird Optimization (CBO) is another new swarm-based optimization algorithm. CBO originates from the regular and irregular motion of a bird called Coot on the water’s surface. Although the framework of CBO is slightly complicated, it has outstanding exploration potential and excellent capability to avoid falling into… More >

    Abstract Cardiovascular problems have become the predominant cause of death worldwide and a rise in the number of patients has been observed lately. Currently, electrocardiogram (ECG) data is analyzed by medical experts to determine the cardiac abnormality, which is time-consuming. In addition, the diagnosis requires experienced medical experts and is error-prone. However, automated identification of cardiovascular disease using ECGs is a challenging problem and state-of-the-art performance has been attained by complex deep learning architectures. This study proposes a simple multilayer perceptron (MLP) model for heart disease prediction to reduce computational complexity. ECG dataset containing averaged signals More >

    Abstract The video compression sensing method based on multi hypothesis has attracted extensive attention in the research of video codec with limited resources. However, the formation of high-quality prediction blocks in the multi hypothesis prediction stage is a challenging task. To resolve this problem, this paper constructs a novel compressed sensing-based high-quality adaptive video reconstruction optimization method. It mainly includes the optimization of prediction blocks (OPBS), the selection of search windows and the use of neighborhood information. Specifically, the OPBS consists of two parts: the selection of blocks and the optimization of prediction blocks. We combine… More >

    Abstract Most developing countries such as Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, and many more are still fighting against poliovirus. According to the World Health Organization, approximately eighteen million people have been infected with poliovirus in the last two decades. In Asia, still, some countries are suffering from the virus. The stochastic behavior of the poliovirus through the transition probabilities and non-parametric perturbation with fundamental properties are studied. Some basic properties of the deterministic model are studied, equilibria, local stability around the stead states, and reproduction number. Euler Maruyama, stochastic Euler, and stochastic Runge-Kutta study the behavior of More >

    Abstract Coronary artery disease (CAD) has become a significant cause of heart attack, especially among those 40 years old or younger. There is a need to develop new technologies and methods to deal with this disease. Many researchers have proposed image processing-based solutions for CAD diagnosis, but achieving highly accurate results for angiogram segmentation is still a challenge. Several different types of angiograms are adopted for CAD diagnosis. This paper proposes an approach for image segmentation using Convolution Neural Networks (CNN) for diagnosing coronary artery disease to achieve state-of-the-art results. We have collected the 2D X-ray… More >

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.135, No.3, pp. 2155-2172, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.021453
    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: Bio-inspired Computer Modelling: Theories and Applications in Engineering and Sciences)
    Abstract Recently, speech enhancement methods based on Generative Adversarial Networks have achieved good performance in time-domain noisy signals. However, the training of Generative Adversarial Networks has such problems as convergence difficulty, model collapse, etc. In this work, an end-to-end speech enhancement model based on Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Networks is proposed, and some improvements have been made in order to get faster convergence speed and better generated speech quality. Specifically, in the generator coding part, each convolution layer adopts different convolution kernel sizes to conduct convolution operations for obtaining speech coding information from multiple scales; a gated More >

    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: Bio-inspired Computer Modelling: Theories and Applications in Engineering and Sciences)
    Abstract The internet of medical things (IoMT) empowers patients to get adaptable, and virtualized gear over the internet. Task scheduling is the most fundamental problem in the IoMT-cloud since cloud execution commonly relies on it. Thus, a proposition is being made for a distinct scheduling technique to suitably meet these solicitations. To manage the scheduling issue, an artificial intelligence (AI) method known as a hybrid genetic algorithm (HGA) is proposed. The proposed AI method will be justified by contrasting it with other traditional optimization and AI scheduling approaches. The CloudSim is utilized to quantify its effect More >
