Support Vector Machine(SVM)has become one of the traditional machine learning algorithms the most used in prediction and classification tasks.However,its behavior strongly depends on some parameters,making tuning these parameters a sensitive step to maintain a good performance.On the other hand,and as any other classifier,the performance of SVM is also affected by the input set of features used to build the learning model,which makes the selection of relevant features an important task not only to preserve a good classification accuracy but also to reduce the dimensionality of datasets.In this paper,the MRFO+SVM algorithm is introduced by investigating the recent manta ray foraging optimizer to fine-tune the SVM parameters and identify the optimal feature subset simultaneously.The proposed approach is validated and compared with four SVM-based algorithms over eight benchmarking datasets.Additionally,it is applied to a disease Covid-19 dataset.The experimental results show the high ability of the proposed algorithm to find the appropriate SVM’s parameters,and its acceptable performance to deal with feature selection problem.

Satellite Image Classification Using a Hybrid Manta Ray Foraging Optimization Neural Network

A semi supervised image classification method for satellite images is proposed in this paper.The satellite images contain enormous data that can be used in various applications.The analysis of the data is a tedious task due to the amount of data and the heterogeneity of the data.Thus,in this paper,a Radial Basis Function Neural Network(RBFNN)trained using Manta Ray Foraging Optimization algorithm(MRFO)is proposed.RBFNN is a three-layer network comprising of input,output,and hidden layers that can process large amounts.The trained network can discover hidden data patterns in unseen data.The learning algorithm and seed selection play a vital role in the performance of the network.The seed selection is done using the spectral indices to further improve the performance of the network.The manta ray foraging optimization algorithm is inspired by the intelligent behaviour of manta rays.It emulates three unique foraging behaviours namelys chain,cyclone,and somersault foraging.The satellite images contain enormous amount of data and thus require exploration in large search space.The spiral movement of the MRFO algorithm enables it to explore large search spaces effectively.The proposed method is applied on pre and post flooding Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager(OLI)images of New Brunswick area.The method was applied to identify and classify the land cover changes in the area induced by flooding.The images are classified using the proposed method and a change map is developed using post classification comparison.The change map shows that a large amount of agricultural area was washed away due to flooding.The measurement of the affected area in square kilometres is also performed for mitigation activities.The results show that post flooding the area covered by water is increased whereas the vegetated area is decreased.The performance of the proposed method is done with existing state-of-the-art methods.
