Abstract Cyber-physical systems (CPS) represent a sophisticated integration of computational and physical components that power critical applications such as smart manufacturing, healthcare, and autonomous infrastructure. However, their extensive reliance on internet connectivity makes them increasingly susceptible to cyber threats, potentially leading to operational failures and data breaches. Furthermore, CPS faces significant threats related to unauthorized access, improper management, and tampering of the content it generates. In this paper, we propose an intrusion detection system (IDS) optimized for CPS environments using a hybrid approach by combining a nature-inspired feature selection scheme, such as Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO),… More >

Abstract The diagnosis of brain tumors is an extended process that significantly depends on the expertise and skills of radiologists. The rise in patient numbers has substantially elevated the data processing volume, making conventional methods both costly and inefficient. Recently, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has gained prominence for developing automated systems that can accurately diagnose or segment brain tumors in a shorter time frame. Many researchers have examined various algorithms that provide both speed and accuracy in detecting and classifying brain tumors. This paper proposes a new model based on AI, called the Brain Tumor Detection (BTD)… More >

Abstract As the demand for advanced material design and performance prediction continues to grow, traditional phase-field models are increasingly challenged by limitations in computational efficiency and predictive accuracy, particularly when addressing high-dimensional and complex data in multicomponent systems. To overcome these challenges, this study proposes an innovative model, LSGWO-BP, which integrates an improved Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) with a backpropagation neural network (BP) to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of quasi-phase equilibrium predictions within the KKS phase-field framework. Three mapping enhancement strategies were investigated–Circle-Root, Tent-Cosine, and Logistic-Sine mappings–with the Logistic mapping further improved via Sine perturbation… More >

Abstract This study presents an innovative approach to calculating the failure probability of slopes by incorporating fuzzy limit-state functions, a method that significantly enhances the accuracy and efficiency of slope stability analysis. Unlike traditional probabilistic techniques, this approach utilizes a least squares support vector machine (LSSVM) optimized with a grey wolf optimizer (GWO) and K-fold cross-validation (CV) to approximate the limit-state function, thus reducing computational complexity. The novelty of this work lies in its application to one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D), and three-dimensional (3D) slope models, demonstrating its versatility and high precision. The proposed method consistently achieves… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) is integral to modern infrastructure, enabling connectivity among a wide range of devices from home automation to industrial control systems. With the exponential increase in data generated by these interconnected devices, robust anomaly detection mechanisms are essential. Anomaly detection in this dynamic environment necessitates methods that can accurately distinguish between normal and anomalous behavior by learning intricate patterns. This paper presents a novel approach utilizing generative adversarial networks (GANs) for anomaly detection in IoT systems. However, optimizing GANs involves tuning hyper-parameters such as learning rate, batch size, and optimization algorithms,… More >

Abstract The virtual synchronous generator (VSG) technology has been proposed to address the problem of system frequency and active power oscillation caused by grid-connected new energy power sources. However, the traditional voltage-current double-closed-loop control used in VSG has the disadvantages of poor disturbance immunity and insufficient dynamic response. In light of the issues above, a virtual synchronous generator voltage outer-loop control strategy based on improved linear autonomous disturbance rejection control (ILADRC) is put forth for consideration. Firstly, an improved first-order linear self-immunity control structure is established for the characteristics of the voltage outer loop; then, the… More >

Abstract This research proposes a highly effective soft computing paradigm for estimating the compressive strength (CS) of metakaolin-contained cemented materials. The proposed approach is a combination of an enhanced grey wolf optimizer (EGWO) and an extreme learning machine (ELM). EGWO is an augmented form of the classic grey wolf optimizer (GWO). Compared to standard GWO, EGWO has a better hunting mechanism and produces an optimal performance. The EGWO was used to optimize the ELM structure and a hybrid model, ELM-EGWO, was built. To train and validate the proposed ELM-EGWO model, a sum of 361 experimental results… More >

Abstract The grey wolf optimizer (GWO) is a swarm-based intelligence optimization algorithm by simulating the steps of searching, encircling, and attacking prey in the process of wolf hunting. Along with its advantages of simple principle and few parameters setting, GWO bears drawbacks such as low solution accuracy and slow convergence speed. A few recent advanced GWOs are proposed to try to overcome these disadvantages. However, they are either difficult to apply to large-scale problems due to high time complexity or easily lead to early convergence. To solve the abovementioned issues, a high-accuracy variable grey wolf optimizer… More >
