However, SSA still faces challenges of premature convergence and imbalance between exploration and exploitation, especially when tackling multimodal optimization problems. Aiming to deal with the above problems, we propose an enhanced variant of SSA called the multi-strategy enhanced sparrow search algorithm(MSSSA) in this paper. First, a chaotic map is introduced to obtain a high-quality initial population for SSA, and the opposition-based learning strategy is employed to increase the population diversity. Then, an adaptive parameter control strategy is designed to accommodate an adequate balance between exploration and exploitation. Finally, a hybrid disturbance mechanism is embedded in the individual update stage to avoid falling into local optima. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed MSSSA, a large number of experiments are implemented, including 40 complex functions from the IEEE CEC2014 and IEEE CEC2019 test suites and 10 classical functions with different dimensions. Experimental results show that the MSSSA achieves competitive performance compared with several state-of-the-art optimization algorithms. The proposed MSSSA is also successfully applied to solve two engineering optimization problems. The results demonstrate the superiority of the MSSSA in addressing practical problems.展开更多

文摘In the classification problem,deep kernel extreme learning machine(DKELM)has the characteristics of efficient processing and superior performance,but its parameters optimization is difficult.To improve the classification accuracy of DKELM,a DKELM algorithm optimized by the improved sparrow search algorithm(ISSA),named as ISSA-DKELM,is proposed in this paper.Aiming at the parameter selection problem of DKELM,the DKELM classifier is constructed by using the optimal parameters obtained by ISSA optimization.In order to make up for the shortcomings of the basic sparrow search algorithm(SSA),the chaotic transformation is first applied to initialize the sparrow position.Then,the position of the discoverer sparrow population is dynamically adjusted.A learning operator in the teaching-learning-based algorithm is fused to improve the position update operation of the joiners.Finally,the Gaussian mutation strategy is added in the later iteration of the algorithm to make the sparrow jump out of local optimum.The experimental results show that the proposed DKELM classifier is feasible and effective,and compared with other classification algorithms,the proposed DKELM algorithm aciheves better test accuracy.

文摘Aiming at the problem of energy storage unit failure in the spring operating mechanism of low voltage circuit breakers(LVCBs).A fault diagnosis algorithm based on an improved Sparrow Search Algorithm(ISSA)optimized Backpropagation Neural Network(BPNN)is proposed to improve the operational safety of LVCB.Taking the 1.5kV/4000A/75kA LVCB as an example.According to the current operating characteristics of the energy storage motor,fault characteristics are extracted based on Empirical Wavelet Transform(EWT).Traditional BPNN has problems such as difficulty adjusting network weights and thresholds,being sensitive to initial weights,and quickly falling into local optimal solutions.The Sparrow Search Algorithm(SSA)with self-adjusting weight factors combined with bidirectional mutations is added to optimize the selection of BPNN hyperparameters.The results show that the ISSA-BPNN can accurately and quickly distinguish six conditions of motor voltage reduction:motor voltage increase,motor voltage decrease,energy storage spring stuck,transmission gear stuck,regular state and energy storage spring not locked.It is suitable for fault diagnosis and detection of the energy storage part of LVCB.
文摘Oil and gas pipelines are affected by many factors,such as pipe wall thinning and pipeline rupture.Accurate prediction of failure pressure of oil and gas pipelines can provide technical support for pipeline safety management.Aiming at the shortcomings of the BP Neural Network(BPNN)model,such as low learning efficiency,sensitivity to initial weights,and easy falling into a local optimal state,an Improved Sparrow Search Algorithm(ISSA)is adopted to optimize the initial weights and thresholds of BPNN,and an ISSA-BPNN failure pressure prediction model for corroded pipelines is established.Taking 61 sets of pipelines blasting test data as an example,the prediction model was built and predicted by MATLAB software,and compared with the BPNN model,GA-BPNN model,and SSA-BPNN model.The results show that the MAPE of the ISSA-BPNN model is 3.4177%,and the R2 is 0.9880,both of which are superior to its comparison model.Using the ISSA-BPNN model has high prediction accuracy and stability,and can provide support for pipeline inspection and maintenance.

文摘Variational mode decomposition(VMD)is a suitable tool for processing cavitation-induced vibration signals and is greatly affected by two parameters:the decomposed number K and penalty factorαunder strong noise interference.To solve this issue,this study proposed self-tuning VMD(SVMD)for cavitation diagnostics in fluid machinery,with a special focus on low signal-to-noise ratio conditions.A two-stage progressive refinement of the coarsely located target penalty factor for SVMD was conducted to narrow down the search space for accelerated decomposition.A hybrid optimized sparrow search algorithm(HOSSA)was developed for optimalαfine-tuning in a refined space based on fault-type-guided objective functions.Based on the submodes obtained using exclusive penalty factors in each iteration,the cavitation-related characteristic frequencies(CCFs)were extracted for diagnostics.The power spectrum correlation coefficient between the SVMD reconstruction and original signals was employed as a stop criterion to determine whether to stop further decomposition.The proposed SVMD overcomes the blindness of setting the mode number K in advance and the drawback of sharing penalty factors for all submodes in fixed-parameter and parameter-optimized VMDs.Comparisons with other existing methods in simulation signal decomposition and in-lab experimental data demonstrated the advantages of the proposed method in accurately extracting CCFs with lower computational cost.SVMD especially enhances the denoising capability of the VMD-based method.

文摘The buckling load of carbon fiber composite cylindrical shells(CF-CCSs)was predicted using a backpropagation neural network improved by the sparrow search algorithm(SSA-BPNN).Firstly,two CF-CCSs,each with an inner diameter of 100 mm,were manufactured and tested.The buckling behavior of CF-CCSs was analyzed by finite element and experiment.Subsequently,the effects of ply angle and length–diameter ratio on buckling load of CF-CCSs were analyzed,and the dataset of the neural network was generated using the finite element method.On this basis,the SSA-BPNN model for predicting buckling load of CF-CCS was established.The results show that the maximum and average errors of the SSA-BPNN to the test data are 6.88%and 2.24%,respectively.The buckling load prediction for CF-CCSs based on SSA-BPNN has satisfactory generalizability and can be used to analyze buckling loads on cylindrical shells of carbon fiber composites.

文摘Since the existing prediction methods have encountered difficulties in processing themultiple influencing factors in short-term power load forecasting,we propose a bidirectional long short-term memory(BiLSTM)neural network model based on the temporal pattern attention(TPA)mechanism.Firstly,based on the grey relational analysis,datasets similar to forecast day are obtained.Secondly,thebidirectional LSTM layermodels the data of thehistorical load,temperature,humidity,and date-type and extracts complex relationships between data from the hidden row vectors obtained by the BiLSTM network,so that the influencing factors(with different characteristics)can select relevant information from different time steps to reduce the prediction error of the model.Simultaneously,the complex and nonlinear dependencies between time steps and sequences are extracted by the TPA mechanism,so the attention weight vector is constructed for the hidden layer output of BiLSTM and the relevant variables at different time steps are weighted to influence the input.Finally,the chaotic sparrow search algorithm(CSSA)is used to optimize the hyperparameter selection of the model.The short-term power load forecasting on different data sets shows that the average absolute errors of short-termpower load forecasting based on our method are 0.876 and 4.238,respectively,which is lower than other forecastingmethods,demonstrating the accuracy and stability of our model.

文摘In this paper,a bioinspired path planning approach for mobile robots is proposed.The approach is based on the sparrow search algorithm,which is an intelligent optimization algorithm inspired by the group wisdom,foraging,and anti-predation behaviors of sparrows.To obtain high-quality paths and fast convergence,an improved sparrow search algorithm is proposed with three new strategies.First,a linear path strategy is proposed,which can transform the polyline in the corner of the path into a smooth line,to enable the robot to reach the goal faster.Then,a new neighborhood search strategy is used to improve the fitness value of the global optimal individual,and a new position update function is used to speed up the convergence.Finally,a new multi-index comprehensive evaluation method is designed to evaluate these algorithms.Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has a shorter path and faster convergence than other state-ofthe-art studies.

文摘The target's threat prediction is an essential procedure for the situation analysis in an aerial defense system.However,the traditional threat prediction methods mostly ignore the effect of commander's emotion.They only predict a target's present threat from the target's features itself,which leads to their poor ability in a complex situation.To aerial targets,this paper proposes a method for its potential threat prediction considering commander emotion(PTP-CE)that uses the Bi-directional LSTM(BiLSTM)network and the backpropagation neural network(BP)optimized by the sparrow search algorithm(SSA).Furthermore,we use the BiLSTM to predict the target's future state from real-time series data,and then adopt the SSA-BP to combine the target's state with the commander's emotion to establish a threat prediction model.Therefore,the target's potential threat level can be obtained by this threat prediction model from the predicted future state and the recognized emotion.The experimental results show that the PTP-CE is efficient for aerial target's state prediction and threat prediction,regardless of commander's emotional effect.

文摘The sparrow search algorithm(SSA) is a recent meta-heuristic optimization approach with the advantages of simplicity and flexibility. However, SSA still faces challenges of premature convergence and imbalance between exploration and exploitation, especially when tackling multimodal optimization problems. Aiming to deal with the above problems, we propose an enhanced variant of SSA called the multi-strategy enhanced sparrow search algorithm(MSSSA) in this paper. First, a chaotic map is introduced to obtain a high-quality initial population for SSA, and the opposition-based learning strategy is employed to increase the population diversity. Then, an adaptive parameter control strategy is designed to accommodate an adequate balance between exploration and exploitation. Finally, a hybrid disturbance mechanism is embedded in the individual update stage to avoid falling into local optima. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed MSSSA, a large number of experiments are implemented, including 40 complex functions from the IEEE CEC2014 and IEEE CEC2019 test suites and 10 classical functions with different dimensions. Experimental results show that the MSSSA achieves competitive performance compared with several state-of-the-art optimization algorithms. The proposed MSSSA is also successfully applied to solve two engineering optimization problems. The results demonstrate the superiority of the MSSSA in addressing practical problems.

文摘The accuracy of a fracture reduction robot(FRR)is critical for ensuring the safety of surgery.Improving the repositioning accuracy of a FRR,reducing the error,and realizing a safer and more stable folding motion is critical.To achieve this,a sparrow search algorithm(SSA)based on the Levy flight operator was proposed in this study for self-tuning the robot controller parameters.An inverse kinematic analysis of the FRR was also performed.The robot dynamics model was established using Simulink,and the inverse dynamics controller for the fracture reduction mechanism was designed using the computed torque control method.Both simulation and physical experiments were also performed.The actual motion trajectory of the actuator drive rod and its error with a desired trajectory was obtained through simulation.An optimized Levy-sparrow search algorithm(Levy-SSA)crack reduction robot controller demonstrated an overall reduction of two orders of magnitude in the reduction error,with an average error reduction of 98.74%compared with the traditional unoptimized controller.The Levy-SSA increased the convergence of the crack reduction robot control system to the optimal solution,improved the accuracy of the motion trajectory,and exhibited important implications for robot controller optimization.

文摘Accurately predicting and estimating the squeezing and ground response to tunneling remains challenging.Moreover,tunnel-squeezing hazards are much more likely to occur in deeply buried long tunnels with complex engineering-geological environments.There-fore,a high-performance predictive model for tunnel squeezing is necessary.A superior ensemble classifier is put forward in this study,which is composed of four individual classifiers(gradient boosting classifier,extra-trees classifier,AdaBoost classifier,and Logistic regression classifier)and two optimization algorithms(Bayesian optimization(BO)and sparrow search algorithm(SSA)).The training database covers five parameters:tunnel depth(H),rock tunneling quality index(Q),tunnel diameter(D),support stiffness(K),and strength stress ratio(SSR),about which the basic information is accessible at the early design phases.However,the dataset compiled from the literature is insufficient.Thus,the ten proposed methods are used to replace the missing values.During the model training pro-cess,BO shows its strong ability to optimize seventeen hyperparameters.When applied to tune the classifiers’weights,SSA achieves a fast and efficient performance.The novel Shapley Additive Explanations–LightGBM method indicates that the K is the most important input feature,followed by SSR,Q,H,and D,respectively.The ensemble classifier is then validated using the test set and additional his-torical case projects.The validation shows that the model can achieve an accuracy of 98%(i.e.,the error rate is 2%)on the test set,higher than those achieved by previous prediction models.Moreover,the predicted probability could provide warning information for timely support measures.Finally,the application results are illustrated through tests on the tunnel sections that have not yet been excavated in the line of the Sichuan–Tibet railway project.The applied predictive tendencies and laws are in line with the practical experience.In sum-mary,the proposed model’s prediction results are reasonable,and its prediction will be more accurate as more data is collected and trained for prewarning the tunnel squeezing hazard.

文摘The safety and reliability of battery storage systems are critical to the mass roll-out of electrified transportation and new energy generation.To achieve safe management and optimal control of batteries,the state of charge(SOC)is one of the important parameters.The machine-learning based SOC estimation methods of lithium-ion batteries have attracted substantial interests in recent years.However,a common problem with these models is that their estimation performances are not always stable,which makes them difficult to use in practical applications.To address this problem,an optimized radial basis function neural network(RBF-NN)that combines the concepts of Golden Section Method(GSM)and Sparrow Search Algorithm(SSA)is proposed in this paper.Specifically,GSM is used to determine the optimum number of neurons in hidden layer of the RBF-NN model,and its parameters such as radial base center,connection weights and so on are optimized by SSA,which greatly improve the performance of RBF-NN in SOC estimation.In the experiments,data collected from different working conditions are used to demonstrate the accuracy and generalization ability of the proposed model,and the results of the experiment indicate that the maximum error of the proposed model is less than 2%.
