摘要Few-for-many(F4M)optimization,recently introduced as a novel paradigm in multi-objective optimization,aims to find a small set of solutions that effectively handle a large number of conflicting objectives.Unlike traditional many-objective optimization methods,which typically attempt comprehensive coverage of the Pareto front,F4M optimization emphasizes finding a small representative solution set to efficiently address highdimensional objective spaces.Motivated by the computational complexity and practical relevance of F4M optimization,this paper proposes a new evolutionary algorithm explicitly tailored for efficiently solving F4M optimization problems.Inspired by Smetric selection evolutionary multi-objective optimization algorithm(SMS-EMOA),our proposed approach employs a(μ+1)-evolution strategy guided by the objective of F4M optimization.Furthermore,to facilitate rigorous performance assessment,we propose a novel benchmark test suite specifically designed for F4M optimization by leveraging the similarity betw een the R2indicator and F4M formulations.Our test suite is highly flexible,allowing any existing multi-objective optimization problem to be transformed into a corresponding F4M instance via scalarization using the weighted Tchebycheff function.Comprehensive experimental evaluations on benchmarks demonstrate the superior performance of our algorithm compared to existing state-of-the-art algorithms,especially on instances involving a large number of objectives.The source code of the proposed algorithm will be released publicly.Source code is available at http://gffzz188fe103f8f1460as666bu6cf5vqw6q9n.ffgz.tsg.suse.edu.cn/MOL-SZU/SoM-EMOA.

摘要Metaheuristic algorithms have emerged as indispensable tools for solving NP-hard optimization problems that defy traditional methods.To advance the field’s focus on algorithmic performance,this study introduces the Theory Evolution Optimization(TEO)–an efficient metaheuristic inspired by the evolution of scientific theory.TEO simulates the competitive,accumulative,and replacement processes among scientific hypotheses,mirroring the evolution from a hypothesis to an established scientific theory.The performance of TEO is validated through extensive experimental simulations and benchmarked against 28 popular algorithms,including highly competitive champions such as EBOwithCMAR,LSHADE_cnEpSi,and LSHADE.Pairwise comparisons between TEO and the latest algorithms are conducted using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test,with multiple comparisons managed by the Friedman test.Initially,TEO is tested on the classical IEEE CEC2017 and the latest IEEE CEC2022 benchmark functions.TEO successfully addresses four prominent engineering design problems in constrained continuous space for practical applications.Additionally,a binary TEO(BTEO)variant is introduced and applied to feature selection tasks in discrete space.Experimental results consistently demonstrate that TEO proposes highly competitive outcomes in optimization problems.The source codes for this research are accessible to the public at http://gffzze767f4cc5ce545d8s666bu6cf5vqw6q9n.ffgz.tsg.suse.edu.cn/TEO.html.

摘要When milling structural components with varying axial depths and widths,cutting forces tend to fluctuate,negatively impacting tool life and machining accuracy.To mitigate the force fluctuations and enhance tool longevity,developing a simple,reliable,and easy-to-implement force control system for milling is essential,which is an important step toward advancing intelligent manufacturing.This paper explores the use of genetic algorithms(GA) for powerful optimization capabilities in developing self-tuning milling force controllers.A comprehensive framework for optimizing a fuzzy logic controller using an enhanced GA is specifically designed for the milling process.The optimization integrates the GA with a simulation model,fine-tuning membership functions and optimizing fuzzy rule selection.The enhanced GA incorporates the Integral of Time-weighted Absolute Error(ITAE) as the fitness criterion to improve the robustness and responsiveness of the controller.The optimized fuzzy logic controller is implemented within a computer numerical control system,adjusting feed rates in real-time to control milling forces.The performance of the proposed controller is validated through step and slope milling tests,demonstrating an average control accuracy of 95.52%.Comparative evaluations with other controllers show that the proposed system offers a significant improvement,achieving up to 4.58% better control accuracy in step milling tests.
摘要Seismic time series forecasting remains challenging due to the nonlinearity,non-stationarity,and noise of earthquake data,and because deep learning models are sensitive to preprocessing and hyperparameter settings.Although recent studies have improved neural architectures and optimization techniques,preprocessing is often treated as a fixed or manually designed stage,with limited integration into model optimization.To address this,this paper proposes an integrated,data-driven modelling framework that combines guided preprocessing with systematic hyperparameter optimization for seismic prediction,specifically forecasting earthquake magnitude from seismic catalog time-series data,with experiments conducted on Canadian seismic records.The method uses a Large Language Model to guide data preparation and feature engineering,rather than fully automate them,and applies deep learning-based forecasting with the N-HITS architecture,optimized via metaheuristic-assisted feature selection and hyperparameter tuning.The Football Optimization Algorithm(FbOA),employed as a metaheuristic optimization strategy in this study,is evaluated and compared with several well-known optimizers under identical conditions.The results show significant performance gains,with FbOA achieving superior accuracy,robustness,and convergence compared to baseline and competing methods.Notably,error metrics are reduced(MSE 3.10×10-7,RMSE 5.57×103),with high performance indicators(r=0.982,R2=0.979,NSE=0.981,WI=0.985).These results highlight the value of integrating guided preprocessing with optimization and demonstrate a scalable framework for high-precision time-series prediction in geophysical and related domains.

摘要The Marine Predators Algorithm(MPA),while promising for complex optimization,suffers from limited solution precision,imbalanced exploration–exploitation,and premature convergence.To address these shortcomings,this paper proposes a phased-enhancement variant named PEMPA,which integrates three novel strategies into distinct phases of MPA:1)embedding historical best positions in the high-velocity ratio phase to refine solution quality;2)introducing an adaptive inertia weight based on an inverted Sigmoid function in the unit-velocity ratio phase to systematically balance exploration and exploitation;and 3)designing a two-stage opposition-based learning operator in the low-velocity ratio phase to prevent premature convergence.The performance of PEMPA is comprehensively evaluated across 23 classical benchmark functions,the IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation(CEC)2017 test suite,21 feature selection tasks,and a real-world medical insurance fraud detection problem.Experimental results confirm that the proposed strategies significantly enhance the efficiency and robustness of MPA.Furthermore,PEMPA demonstrates highly competitive performance compared with several state-of-the-art metaheuristic algorithms,validating its effectiveness and scalability for diverse optimization challenges.

摘要Unmanned aircraft are highly vulnerable to crosswind-induced turbulence during complex maneuvers such as turning,which can significantly compromise control and reduce autopilot effectiveness.This paper presents a novel control strategy to improve the controllability of unmanned aircraft in challenging wind conditions.First,the equations of motion for the aircraft are reformulated as a system of stochastic differential equations,which are subsequently transformed into a deterministic form.By modeling turbulence as a Gaussian random process and incorporating it directly into the control system,the proposed method proactively compensates for the adverse effects of turbulence.The transformation is achieved using semi-invariant techniques.Second,the control problem is formulated as an optimization task,aiming to minimize the deviation between the actual and desired turn characteristics,specifically the angular velocity.Finally,a new numerical method with proven global convergence is employed to compute the optimal autopilot parameters.Simulation results using a medium-range unmanned aircraft model under continuous turbulent gusts demonstrate that the proposed method significantly outperforms existing approaches,ensuring both stability and precision in turbulent wind conditions.

摘要A novel intelligent optimization algorithm inspired by nature,called sea otter optimization algorithm(SOOA),is proposed.The SOOA simulates the natural behaviors of sea otters,such as using tactile senses to search for food in seawater,grooming their fur,feeding with the aid of stones,and escaping from danger.In the exploration stage,a wetness factor is introduced to control the behavior of sea otters in foraging and grooming;a danger factor is introduced to control the behavior of sea otters in feeding and avoiding dangers in the exploitation stage,and the behaviors of sea otters in responding to different dangers are mathematically modeled.The proposed algorithm is compared with 9 well-known intelligent optimization algorithms,and evaluated in 13 benchmark functions as well as wireless sensor network coverage optimization problems to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.The experimental results show that the node coverage after SOOA optimization reaches 91.2%in 2D environment and 90.47%in 3D environment.Compared with other algorithms,SOOA is superior and possesses the ability to solve complex optimization problems.

摘要Quantum computing,leveraging the properties of quantum physics such as quantum superposition and entanglement,possesses the potential for exponential acceleration compared to classical computing.It can significantly enhance solution efficiency in topology optimization and effectively avoid the entrapment in local optima.This paper proposes a hybrid classical-quantum computing framework to solve the stress-constrained topology optimization problem for truss structures.Initially,structural analyses are performed on a classical computer to determine the stresses of truss members.Then,the optimization problem is formulated through incremental updates of member cross-sectional areas to make it compatible with a quantum annealer.The update strategy consists of a directional-control function and a magnitude-control function.By embedding stress constraints directly into the directional-control function,the original optimization problem is reformulated as a quadratic unconstrained binary optimization model suitable for quantum annealing.To realize a balance between solution accuracy and iteration efficiency,a dynamic strategy for adjusting the magnitude of area increments is proposed.Thus,the quantum annealer can effectively achieve the optimal solutions.When only the access time of the quantum processing unit is considered,the results from 2D and 3D examples of truss topology optimization validate the effectiveness of the proposed framework,and demonstrate the great potential of quantum computing in structural optimization.

摘要Structural optimization plays a crucial role in reducing the cost of offshore wind power,particularly in deep-water regions where the weight of jacket foundations increases substantially.However,there is ongoing debate regarding the water-depth range that is suitable for jacket foundations,and the threshold where floating foundations become more viable.Existing studies have not quantitatively analyzed how water depth affects jacket foundation mass,and have often struggled to handle the high dimensionality and stringent constraints inherent in jacket foundation optimization problems.In this study,we propose an optimization framework that couples parametric finite element analysis with a genetic algorithm to minimize the mass of jacket foundations based on three actual engineering projects at varying water depths.A novel population initialization strategy incorporating engineering experience-based solutions is introduced to improve convergence efficiency and solution quality.Comparative analysis against preliminary designs and existing offshore wind projects demonstrates the model’s ability to achieve cost-effective solutions,specifically reducing required jacket masses by 18.66%,20.98%,and 17.22%at depths of 30.06,60.23,and 89.81 m,respectively.The results reveal a 122.94%increase in jacket mass—from 1431.28 to 3190.90 t—as water depth increases from 30.06 to 89.81 m.The jacket foundation demonstrates superior cost effectiveness in shallow to moderate water depths,as the unit weight per megawatt(MW)of floating foundations is 97.51%and 35.74%higher at water depths of 60.23 and 89.81 m,respectively.Accordingly,the applicable water-depth threshold between the jacket and floating foundations is estimated to be approximately 100 m.The proposed optimization model offers a novel methodology and practical insights for the optimal design of offshore wind turbine support structures in varying marine environments.
摘要Multi-label feature selection(MFS)is a crucial dimensionality reduction technique aimed at identifying informative features associated with multiple labels.However,traditional centralized methods face significant challenges in privacy-sensitive and distributed settings,often neglecting label dependencies and suffering from low computational efficiency.To address these issues,we introduce a novel framework,Fed-MFSDHBCPSO—federated MFS via dual-layer hybrid breeding cooperative particle swarm optimization algorithm with manifold and sparsity regularization(DHBCPSO-MSR).Leveraging the federated learning paradigm,Fed-MFSDHBCPSO allows clients to perform local feature selection(FS)using DHBCPSO-MSR.Locally selected feature subsets are encrypted with differential privacy(DP)and transmitted to a central server,where they are securely aggregated and refined through secure multi-party computation(SMPC)until global convergence is achieved.Within each client,DHBCPSO-MSR employs a dual-layer FS strategy.The inner layer constructs sample and label similarity graphs,generates Laplacian matrices to capture the manifold structure between samples and labels,and applies L2,1-norm regularization to sparsify the feature subset,yielding an optimized feature weight matrix.The outer layer uses a hybrid breeding cooperative particle swarm optimization algorithm to further refine the feature weight matrix and identify the optimal feature subset.The updated weight matrix is then fed back to the inner layer for further optimization.Comprehensive experiments on multiple real-world multi-label datasets demonstrate that Fed-MFSDHBCPSO consistently outperforms both centralized and federated baseline methods across several key evaluation metrics.

摘要In structural optimization,data-driven surrogate models are often explored as alternatives to finite element analysis to reduce computational cost.However,conventional neural networks usually fail to capture key structural characteristics and are limited to predicting global responses(e.g.,top displacement),but usually fail to achieve accurate internal force predictions with conventional training data volumes.As a result,most existing studies involving surrogate models did not concern internal force constraints.To address this issue,this study proposes a structural optimization framework based on a pre-trained Physics-Informed Neural Network(PINN)surrogate model.By embedding static equilibrium equation into the loss function,the model achieves higher predictive accuracy,particularly for internal forces,while pre-training accelerates convergence and enhances stability.Combined with an improved multi-swarm particle swarm optimization(MPSO)algorithm,the framework enables efficient optimization of multi-story frame structures under internal force and multiple other constraints.The application to a six-story frame structure validates its effectiveness:compared with a DNN-based model,the PINN-based model improves the coefficient of determination for internal force prediction from 0.8874 to 0.9937.These results demonstrate that the proposed method offers a promising approach for efficient optimization of multi-story frame structures.

摘要Discrete memristive neuron systems have attracted considerable attention due to their nonlinear dynamical properties,low computational overhead,and ease of hardware implementation.For the practical engineering applications of discrete memristive neuron systems,effective control remains a key issue.Parameter identification using intelligent optimization algorithms is an important approach for controlling complex nonlinear systems.However,classical algorithms are prone to falling into local optima and often exhibit high computational complexity,resulting in slow convergence.Therefore,a new algorithm named adaptive chaos game optimization(ACGO)is proposed to address these issues.By introducing a differential evolution mutation strategy and a Cauchy adaptive parameter mechanism,the ACGO algorithm can effectively balance global exploration and local exploitation capabilities.To verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm,it is applied to parameter identification in five discrete memristive neuron maps(DMNMs)and compared with seven intelligent optimization algorithms.Simulation results demonstrate that the ACGO algorithm achieves higher accuracy and faster convergence.In addition,an in-depth investigation is conducted into the effects of sample size and objective function on identification performance.The results indicate that setting the sample size to 4 and selecting the mean squared error(MSE)as the objective function can achieve better identification performance and a high level of robustness.

摘要Owing to their global search capabilities and gradient-free operation,metaheuristic algorithms are widely applied to a wide range of optimization problems.However,their computational demands become prohibitive when tackling high-dimensional optimization challenges.To effectively address these challenges,this study introduces cooperative metaheuristics integrating dynamic dimension reduction(DR).Building upon particle swarm optimization(PSO)and differential evolution(DE),the proposed cooperative methods C-PSO and C-DE are developed.In the proposed methods,the modified principal components analysis(PCA)is utilized to reduce the dimension of design variables,thereby decreasing computational costs.The dynamic DR strategy implements periodic execution of modified PCA after a fixed number of iterations,resulting in the important dimensions being dynamically identified.Compared with the static one,the dynamic DR strategy can achieve precise identification of important dimensions,thereby enabling accelerated convergence toward optimal solutions.Furthermore,the influence of cumulative contribution rate thresholds on optimization problems with different dimensions is investigated.Metaheuristic algorithms(PSO,DE)and cooperative metaheuristics(C-PSO,C-DE)are examined by 15 benchmark functions and two engineering design problems(speed reducer and composite pressure vessel).Comparative results demonstrate that the cooperative methods achieve significantly superior performance compared to standard methods in both solution accuracy and computational efficiency.Compared to standard metaheuristic algorithms,cooperative metaheuristics achieve a reduction in computational cost of at least 40%.The cooperative metaheuristics can be effectively used to tackle both high-dimensional unconstrained and constrained optimization problems.
