A recent set of overused population-based methods have been published in recent years.
Despite their popularity, most of them have uncertain, immature performance, partially done …

There is a new nature-inspired algorithm called salp swarm algorithm (SSA), due to its
simple framework, it has been widely used in many fields. But when handling some …

In 2021, a meta-heuristic algorithm, Reptile Search Algorithm (RSA), was proposed. RSA
mainly simulates the cooperative predatory behavior of crocodiles. Although RSA has a fast …

Breast cancer is one of the most dangerous diseases for women's health, and it is imperative
to provide the necessary diagnostic assistance for it. The medical image processing …

The sand cat swarm optimization algorithm (SCSO) is a recently proposed metaheuristic
optimization algorithm. It stimulates the hunting behavior of the sand cat, which attacks or …

In order to build a green manufacturing model and realize energy conservation and
emission reduction, we establish a distributed two-stage reentrant hybrid flow shop bi-level …

Remora Optimization Algorithm (ROA) is a recent population-based algorithm that mimics
the intelligent traveler behavior of Remora. However, the performance of ROA is barely …

Abstract Harris Hawks Optimization (HHO) algorithm is a newly proposed meta-heuristic
optimization algorithm that simulates the hunting process of the Harris hawks. It has the …

Abstract Software Defect Estimation (SDE) is a fundamental problem solving mechanism in
the field of software engineering (SE). SDE is a task that identifies software models that are …

In this paper, a new hybrid algorithm based on two meta-heuristic algorithms is presented to
improve the optimization capability of original algorithms. This hybrid algorithm is realized by …
