Efficient Computation Offloading of IoT-Based Workflows Using Discrete Teaching Learning-Based Optimization

As the Internet of Things(IoT)and mobile devices have rapidly proliferated,their computationally intensive applications have developed into complex,concurrent IoT-based workflows involving multiple interdependent tasks.By exploiting its low latency and high bandwidth,mobile edge computing(MEC)has emerged to achieve the high-performance computation offloading of these applications to satisfy the quality-of-service requirements of workflows and devices.In this study,we propose an offloading strategy for IoT-based workflows in a high-performance MEC environment.The proposed task-based offloading strategy consists of an optimization problem that includes task dependency,communication costs,workflow constraints,device energy consumption,and the heterogeneous characteristics of the edge environment.In addition,the optimal placement of workflow tasks is optimized using a discrete teaching learning-based optimization(DTLBO)metaheuristic.Extensive experimental evaluations demonstrate that the proposed offloading strategy is effective at minimizing the energy consumption of mobile devices and reducing the execution times of workflows compared to offloading strategies using different metaheuristics,including particle swarm optimization and ant colony optimization.

Hyperparameter Tuning for Deep Neural Networks Based Optimization Algorithm

For training the present Neural Network(NN)models,the standard technique is to utilize decaying Learning Rates(LR).While the majority of these techniques commence with a large LR,they will decay multiple times over time.Decaying has been proved to enhance generalization as well as optimization.Other parameters,such as the network’s size,the number of hidden layers,drop-outs to avoid overfitting,batch size,and so on,are solely based on heuristics.This work has proposed Adaptive Teaching Learning Based(ATLB)Heuristic to identify the optimal hyperparameters for diverse networks.Here we consider three architec-tures Recurrent Neural Networks(RNN),Long Short Term Memory(LSTM),Bidirectional Long Short Term Memory(BiLSTM)of Deep Neural Networks for classification.The evaluation of the proposed ATLB is done through the various learning rate schedulers Cyclical Learning Rate(CLR),Hyperbolic Tangent Decay(HTD),and Toggle between Hyperbolic Tangent Decay and Triangular mode with Restarts(T-HTR)techniques.Experimental results have shown the performance improvement on the 20Newsgroup,Reuters Newswire and IMDB dataset.

An Experimental Investigation into the Amalgamated Al2O3-40% TiO2 Atmospheric Plasma Spray Coating Process on EN24 Substrate and Parameter Optimization Using TLBO

Surface coating is a critical procedure in the case of maintenance engineering. Ceramic coating of the wear areas is of the best practice which substantially enhances the Mean Time between Failure (MTBF). EN24 is a commercial grade alloy which is used for various industrial applications like sleeves, nuts, bolts, shafts, etc. EN24 is having comparatively low corrosion resistance, and ceramic coating of the wear and corroding areas of such parts is a best followed practice which highly improves the frequent failures. The coating quality mainly depends on the coating thickness, surface roughness and coating hardness which finally decides the operability. This paper describes an experimental investigation to effectively optimize the Atmospheric Plasma Spray process input parameters of Al2O3-40% TiO2 coatings to get the best quality of coating on EN24 alloy steel substrate. The experiments are conducted with an Orthogonal Array (OA) design of experiments (DoE). In the current experiment, critical input parameters are considered and some of the vital output parameters are monitored accordingly and separate mathematical models are generated using regression analysis. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is used to generate weights for the individual objective functions and based on that, a combined objective function is made. An advanced optimization method, Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization algorithm (TLBO), is practically utilized to the combined objective function to optimize the values of input parameters to get the best output parameters. Confirmation tests are also conducted and their output results are compared with predicted values obtained through mathematical models. The dominating effects of Al2O3-40% TiO2 spray parameters on output parameters: surface roughness, coating thickness and coating hardness are discussed in detail. It is concluded that the input parameters variation directly affects the characteristics of output parameters and any number of input as well as output parameters can be easily optimized using the current approach.

SS304 is a commercial grade stainless steel which is used for various engineering applications like shafts, guides, jigs, fixtures, etc. Ceramic coating of the wear areas of such parts is a regular practice which significantly enhances the Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF). The final coating quality depends mainly on the coating thickness, surface roughness and hardness which ultimately decides the life. This paper presents an experimental study to effectively optimize the Atmospheric Plasma Spray (APS) process input parameters of Al2O3-40% TiO2 ceramic coatings to get the best quality of coating on commercial SS304 substrate.

Critical input parameters considered are: spray nozzle distance, substrate rotating speed, current of the arc, carrier gas flow and coating powder flow rate. The surface roughness, coating thickness and hardness are considered as the output parameters. Mathematical models are generated using regression analysis for individual output parameters. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is applied to generate weights for the individual objective functions and a combined objective function is generated. An advanced optimization method, Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization algorithm (TLBO), is applied to the combined objective function to optimize the values of input parameters to get the best output parameters and confirmation tests are conducted based on that. The significant effects of spray parameters on surface roughness, coating thickness and coating hardness are studied in detail.

Abnormal high blood pressure or hypertension is still the leading risk factor for death and disability worldwide.This paper presents a new intelligent networked control of medical drug infusion system to regulate the mean arterial blood pressure for hypertensive patients with different health status conditions.The infusion of vasoactive drugs to patients endures various issues,such as variation of sensitivity and noise,which require effective and powerful systems to ensure robustness and good performance.The developed intelligent networked system is composed of a hybrid control scheme of interval type-2 fuzzy(IT2F)logic and teaching-learning-based optimization(TLBO)algorithm.This networked IT2F control is capable of managing the uncertain sensitivity of the patient to anti-hypertensive drugs successfully.To avoid the manual selection of control parameter values,the TLBO algorithm is mainly used to automatically find the best parameter values of the networked IT2F controller.The simulation results showed that the optimized networked IT2F achieved a good performance under external disturbances.A comparative study has also been conducted to emphasize the outperformance of the developed controller against traditional PID and type-1 fuzzy controllers.Moreover,the comparative evaluation demonstrated that the performance of the developed networked IT2F controller is superior to other control strategies in previous studies to handle unknown patients’sensitivity to infused vasoactive drugs in a noisy environment.

Arabic is one of the most spoken languages across the globe.However,there are fewer studies concerning Sentiment Analysis(SA)in Arabic.In recent years,the detected sentiments and emotions expressed in tweets have received significant interest.The substantial role played by the Arab region in international politics and the global economy has urged the need to examine the sentiments and emotions in the Arabic language.Two common models are available:Machine Learning and lexicon-based approaches to address emotion classification problems.With this motivation,the current research article develops a Teaching and Learning Optimization with Machine Learning Based Emotion Recognition and Classification(TLBOML-ERC)model for Sentiment Analysis on tweets made in the Arabic language.The presented TLBOML-ERC model focuses on recognising emotions and sentiments expressed in Arabic tweets.To attain this,the proposed TLBOMLERC model initially carries out data pre-processing and a Continuous Bag Of Words(CBOW)-based word embedding process.In addition,Denoising Autoencoder(DAE)model is also exploited to categorise different emotions expressed in Arabic tweets.To improve the efficacy of the DAE model,the Teaching and Learning-based Optimization(TLBO)algorithm is utilized to optimize the parameters.The proposed TLBOML-ERC method was experimentally validated with the help of an Arabic tweets dataset.The obtained results show the promising performance of the proposed TLBOML-ERC model on Arabic emotion classification.

A self-learning TLBO based dynamic economic/environmental dispatch considering multiple plug-in electric vehicle loads

Economic and environmental load dispatch aims to determine the amount of electricity generated from power plants to meet load demand while minimizing fossil fuel costs and air pollution emissions subject to operational and licensing requirements.These two scheduling problems are commonly formulated with non-smooth cost functions respectively considering various effects and constraints,such as the valve point effect,power balance and ramprate limits.The expected increase in plug-in electric vehicles is likely to see a significant impact on the power system due to high charging power consumption and significant uncertainty in charging times.In this paper,multiple electric vehicle charging profiles are comparatively integrated into a 24-hour load demand in an economic and environment dispatch model.Self-learning teaching-learning based optimization(TLBO)is employed to solve the non-convex non-linear dispatch problems.Numerical results onwell-known benchmark functions,as well as test systems with different scales of generation units show the significance of the new scheduling method.
