Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the performance of the multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) radiomics and 18F-Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-1007 PET/CT radiomics model in diagnosing extracapsular extension (EPE) in prostate cancer (PCa), and to evaluate the performance of a multimodal radiomics model combining mpMRI and PET/CT in predicting EPE. METHODS We included 197 patients with PCa who underwent preoperative mpMRI and PET/CT before surgery. mpMRI and PET/CT images were segmented to delineate the regions of interest and extract radiomics features. PET/CT, mpMRI, and multimodal radiomics models were constructed based on maximum correlation, minimum redundancy, and logistic regression analyses. Model performance was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and indices derived from the confusion matrix. RESULTS AUC values for the mpMRI, PET/CT, and multimodal radiomics models were 0.85 (95% CI, 0.78-0.90), 0.73 (0.64-0.80), and 0.83 (0.75-0.89), respectively, in the training cohort and 0.74 (0.61-0.85), 0.62 (0.48-0.74), and 0.77 (0.64-0.87), respectively, in the testing cohort. The net reclassification improvement demonstrated that the mpMRI radiomics model outperformed the PET/CT one in predicting EPE, with better clinical benefits. The multimodal radiomics model performed better than the single PET/CT radiomics model (P < .05). CONCLUSION The mpMRI and 18F-PSMA-PET/CT combination enhanced the predictive power of EPE in patients with PCa. The multimodal radiomics model will become a reliable and robust tool to assist urologists and radiologists in making preoperative decisions. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE This study presents the first application of multimodal radiomics based on PET/CT and MRI for predicting EPE.

Abstract
Breast cancer poses a significant risk to women's health, and it is essential to provide proper diagnostic support. Medical image processing technology is a key component of all supporting diagnostic techniques, with Image Segmentation (IS) being one of its primary steps. Among various methods, Multilevel Image Segmentation (MIS) is considered one of the most effective and straightforward approaches. Many researchers have attempted to improve the quality of image segmentation by combining different metaheuristic algorithms with MIS. However, these methods often suffer from issues such as low convergence accuracy and a proclivity for converging towards Local Optima (LO). To overcome these challenges, this study introduces an integrated approach that combines the Salp Swarm Algorithm (SSA), Slime Mould Algorithm (SMA) and Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm. In this manuscript, we introduce an innovative hybrid MIS model termed SDSSA, which leverages elements from the SSA, SMA and DE algorithms. The SDSSA model fundamentally relies on non-local means 2D histogram and 2D Kapur's entropy. To evaluate the proposed method effectively, we compare it initially with similar algorithms using the IEEE CEC2014 benchmark functions. The SDSSA showcases enhanced convergence velocity and precision relative to similar algorithms. Furthermore, this paper proposes an excellent MIS method. Subsequently, IS experiments were conducted separately at both low and high threshold levels. The test results demonstrate that the segmentation outcomes of MIS, at both low and high threshold levels, outperform other methods. This validates SDSSA as a superior segmentation technique that provides practical assistance for future research in breast cancer pathology image processing.

Abstract
The Sine Cosine Algorithm (SCA) is an outstanding optimizer that is appreciably used to dissolve complicated real-world problems. Nevertheless, this algorithm lacks sufficient population diversification and a sufficient balance between exploration and exploitation. So, effective techniques are required to tackle the SCA's fundamental shortcomings. Accordingly, the present paper suggests an improved version of SCA called Hierarchical Multi-Leadership SCA (HMLSCA) which uses an effective hierarchical multi-leadership search mechanism to lead the search process on multiple paths. The efficiency of the HMLSCA has been appraised and compared with a set of famous metaheuristic algorithms to dissolve the classical eighteen benchmark functions and thirty CEC 2017 test suites. The results demonstrate that the HMLSCA outperforms all compared algorithms and that the proposed algorithm provided a promising efficiency. Moreover, the HMLSCA was applied to handle the medicine data classification by optimizing the support vector machine's (SVM) parameters and feature weighting in eight datasets. The experiential outcomes verify the productivity of the HMLSCA with the highest classification accuracy and a gain scoring 1.00 Friedman mean rank versus the other evaluated metaheuristic algorithms. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm was used to diagnose COVID-19, in which it attained the topmost accuracy of 98% in diagnosing the infection on the COVID-19 dataset, which proves the performance of the proposed search strategy.

Abstract
Since the outbreak of COVID-19, it has seriously endangered the health of human beings. Computer automatic segmentation of COVID-19 X-ray images is an important means to assist doctors in rapid and accurate diagnosis. Therefore, this paper proposes a modified FOA (EEFOA) with two optimization strategies added to the original FOA, including elite natural evolution (ENE) and elite random mutation (ERM). To be specific, ENE and ERM can effectively speed up the convergence and deal with the problem of local optima, respectively. The outstanding performance of EEFOA was confirmed by experimental results comparing EEFOA with the original FOA, other FOA variants, and advanced algorithms at CEC2014. After that, EEFOA is implemented for multi-threshold image segmentation (MIS) of COVID-19 X-ray images, where a 2D histogram consisting of the original greyscale image and the non-local means image is used to represent the image information, and Rényi's entropy is used as the objective function to find the maximum value. The evaluation results of the MIS segmentation experiments show that, whether high or low threshold, EEFOA can achieve higher quality segmentation results and greater robustness than other advanced segmentation methods.

Abstract
Human health is at risk from pulmonary hypertension (PH), characterized by decreased pulmonary vascular resistance and constriction of the pulmonary vessels, resulting in right heart failure and dysfunction. Thus, preventing PH and monitoring its progression before treating it is vital. Wogonin, derived from the leaves of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, exhibits remarkable pharmacological activity. In this study, we examined the effectiveness of wogonin in mitigating the progression of PH in mice using right heart catheterization and hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. As an alternative to minimize the possibility of harming small animals, we present a scientifically effective feature selection method (BSCDWOA-KELM) that will allow us to develop a novel simpler noninvasive prediction method for wogonin in treating PH. In this method, we use the proposed enhanced whale optimizer (SCDWOA) in conjunction with the kernel extreme learning machine (KELM). Initially, we let SCDWOA perform global optimization experiments on the IEEE CEC2014 benchmark function set to verify its core advantages. Lastly, 12 public and PH datasets are examined for feature selection experiments using BSCDWOA-KELM. As shown in the experimental results for global optimization, the proposed SCDWOA has better convergence performance. Meanwhile, the proposed binary SCDWOA (BSCDWOA) significantly improves the ability of KELM to classify data. By utilizing the BSCDWOA-KELM, key indicators such as the Red blood cell (RBC), the Haemoglobin (HGB), the Lymphocyte percentage (LYM%), the Hematocrit (HCT), and the Red blood cell distribution width-size distribution (RDW-SD) can be efficiently screened in the Pulmonary hypertension dataset, and one of its most essential points is its accuracy of greater than 0.98. Consequently, the BSCDWOA-KELM introduced in this study can be used to predict wogonin therapy for treating pulmonary hypertension in a simple and noninvasive manner.

Abstract
With the development and maturity of machine learning methods, medical diagnosis aided with machine learning methods has become a popular method to assist doctors in diagnosing and treating patients. However, machine learning methods are greatly affected by their hyperparameters, for instance, the kernel parameter in kernel extreme learning machine (KELM) and the learning rate in residual neural networks (ResNet). If the hyperparameters are appropriately set, the performance of the classifier can be significantly improved. To boost the performance of the machine learning methods, this paper proposes to improve the Runge Kutta optimizer (RUN) to adaptively adjust the hyperparameters of the machine learning methods for medical diagnosis purposes. Although RUN has a solid mathematical theoretical foundation, there are still some performance defects when dealing with complex optimization problems. To remedy these defects, this paper proposes a new enhanced RUN method with a grey wolf mechanism and an orthogonal learning mechanism called GORUN. The superior performance of the GORUN was validated against other well-established optimizers on IEEE CEC 2017 benchmark functions. Then, the proposed GORUN is employed to optimize the machine learning models, including the KELM and ResNet, to construct robust models for medical diagnosis. The performance of the proposed machine learning framework was validated on several medical data sets, and the experimental results have demonstrated its superiority.

Abstract
The segmentation of medical images is a crucial and demanding step in medical image processing that offers a solid foundation for subsequent extraction and analysis of medical image data. Although multi-threshold image segmentation is the most used and specialized basic image segmentation technique, it is computationally demanding and often produces subpar segmentation results, hence restricting its application. To solve this issue, this work develops a multi-strategy-driven slime mould algorithm (RWGSMA) for multi-threshold image segmentation. Specifically, the random spare strategy, the double adaptive weigh strategy, and the grade-based search strategy are used to improve the performance of SMA, resulting in an enhanced SMA version. The random spare strategy is mainly used to accelerate the convergence rate of the algorithm. To prevent SMA from falling towards the local optimum, the double adaptive weights are also applied. The grade-based search approach has also been developed to boost convergence performance. This study evaluates the efficacy of RWGSMA from many viewpoints using 30 test suites from IEEE CEC2017 to effectively demonstrate the importance of these techniques in RWGSMA. In addition, numerous typical images were used to show RWGSMA's segmentation performance. Using the multi-threshold segmentation approach with 2D Kapur's entropy as the RWGSMA fitness function, the suggested algorithm was then used to segment instances of lupus nephritis. The experimental findings demonstrate that the suggested RWGSMA beats numerous similar rivals, suggesting that it has a great deal of promise for segmenting histopathological images.

Abstract
Introduction Atopic dermatitis (AD) is an allergic disease with extreme itching that bothers patients. However, diagnosing AD depends on clinicians' subjective judgment, which may be missed or misdiagnosed sometimes. Methods This paper establishes a medical prediction model for the first time on the basis of the enhanced particle swarm optimization (SRWPSO) algorithm and the fuzzy K-nearest neighbor (FKNN), called bSRWPSO-FKNN, which is practiced on a dataset related to patients with AD. In SRWPSO, the Sobol sequence is introduced into particle swarm optimization (PSO) to make the particle distribution of the initial population more uniform, thus improving the population's diversity and traversal. At the same time, this study also adds a random replacement strategy and adaptive weight strategy to the population updating process of PSO to overcome the shortcomings of poor convergence accuracy and easily fall into the local optimum of PSO. In bSRWPSO-FKNN, the core of which is to optimize the classification performance of FKNN through binary SRWPSO. Results To prove that the study has scientific significance, this paper first successfully demonstrates the core advantages of SRWPSO in well-known algorithms through benchmark function validation experiments. Secondly, this article demonstrates that the bSRWPSO-FKNN has practical medical significance and effectiveness through nine public and medical datasets. Discussion The 10 times 10-fold cross-validation experiments demonstrate that bSRWPSO-FKNN can pick up the key features of AD, including the content of lymphocytes (LY), Cat dander, Milk, Dermatophagoides Pteronyssinus/Farinae, Ragweed, Cod, and Total IgE. Therefore, the established bSRWPSO-FKNN method practically aids in the diagnosis of AD.

Abstract
Segmentation of the liver and tumours from computed tomography (CT) scans is an important task in hepatic surgical planning. Manual segmentation of the liver and tumours is a time-consuming and labour-intensive task; therefore, a fully automated method for performing this segmentation is particularly desired. An automatic two-step liver and tumour segmentation method is presented in this paper. A cascade framework is used during the segmentation process, and a fully connected conditional random field (CRF) method is used to refine the tumour segmentation result. First, the proposed fractal residual U-Net (FRA-UNet) is used to locate and initially segment the liver. Then, FRA-UNet is further used to predict liver tumours from the liver region of interest (ROI). Finally, a three-dimensional (3D) CRF is used to refine the tumour segmentation results. The improved fractal residual (FR) structure effectively retains more effective features for improving the segmentation performance of deeper networks, the improved deep residual block can utilise the feature information more effectively, and the 3D CRF method smooths the contours and avoids the tumour oversegmentation problem. FRA-UNet is tested on the Liver Tumour Segmentation challenge dataset (LiTS) and the 3D Image Reconstruction for Comparison of Algorithm Database dataset (3DIRCADb), achieving 97.13% and 97.18% Dice similarity coefficients (DSCs) for liver segmentation and 71.78% and 68.97% DSCs for tumour segmentation, respectively, outperforming most state-of-the-art networks.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant plasma cell disease that is the second most prevalent hematological malignancy in high-income nations and accounts for around 1.8% of all cancers and 18% of hematologic malignancies in the United States. In this research, we try to design a machine learning framework for MM diagnosis from multi characteristic indexes using slime mould Runge Kutta Optimizer (MSRUN) and kernel extreme learning machine, which is called as MSRUN-KELM. An efficient slime mould learning operator is introduced to the initial Runge Kutta Optimizer in MSRUN, ensuring that the trade-off between intensity and diversity is satisfied. The MSRUN was evaluated using IEEE CEC2014 benchmark functions, and the statistical results indicate a significant increase in the search performance of MSRUN. In MSRUN-KELM, kernel extreme machine learning is constructed on MM from multi-characteristic indexes with MSRUN, parameter optimization, and feature selection synchronized by MSRUN. The results of MSRUN-KELM on MM are accuracy of 93.88%, a Matthews correlation coefficient of 0.922677, and sensitivities of 93.41% and 93.19%. The suggested MSRUN-KELM may be utilized to analyze MM from multi-characteristic indexes well, and it can be treated as a potential tool for MM diagnosis.

Abstract
Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is an adverse event occurred during hemodialysis (HD) sessions with high morbidity and mortality. The key to preventing IDH is predicting its pre-dialysis and administering a proper ultrafiltration prescription. For this purpose, this paper builds a prediction model (bCOWOA-KELM) to predict IDH using indices of blood routine tests. In the study, the orthogonal learning mechanism is applied to the first half of the WOA to improve the search speed and accuracy. The covariance matrix is applied to the second half of the WOA to enhance the ability to get out of local optimum and convergence accuracy. Combining the above two improvement methods, this paper proposes a novel improvement variant (COWOA) for the first time. More, the core of bCOWOA-KELM is that the binary COWOA is utilized to improve the performance of the KELM. In order to verify the comprehensive performance of the study, the paper sets four types of comparison experiments for COWOA based on 30 benchmark functions and a series of prediction experiments for bCOWOA-KELM based on six public datasets and the HD dataset. Finally, the results of the experiments are analyzed separately in this paper. The results of the comparison experiments prove fully that the COWOA is superior to other famous methods. More importantly, the bCOWOA performs better than its peers in feature selection and its accuracy is 92.41%. In addition, bCOWOA improves the accuracy by 0.32% over the second-ranked bSCA and by 3.63% over the worst-ranked bGWO. Therefore, the proposed model can be used for IDH prediction with future applications.

Abstract
Slime mould algorithm (SMA) is a new metaheuristic algorithm, which simulates the behavior and morphology changes of slime mould during foraging. The slime mould algorithm has good performance; however, the basic version of SMA still has some problems. When faced with some complex problems, it may fall into local optimum and cannot find the optimal solution. Aiming at this problem, an improved SMA is proposed to alleviate the disadvantages of SMA. Based on the original SMA, Gaussian mutation and Levy flight are introduced to improve the global search performance of the SMA. Adding Gaussian mutation to SMA can improve the diversity of the population, and Levy flight can alleviate the local optimum of SMA, so that the algorithm can find the optimal solution as soon as possible. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, a continuous version of the proposed algorithm, GLSMA, is tested on 33 classical continuous optimization problems. Then, on 14 high-dimensional gene datasets, the effectiveness of the proposed discrete version, namely, BGLSMA, is verified by comparing with other feature selection algorithm. Experimental results reveal that the performance of the continuous version of the algorithm is better than the original algorithm, and the defects of the original algorithm are alleviated. Besides, the discrete version of the algorithm has a higher classification accuracy when fewer features are selected. This proves that the improved algorithm has practical value in high-dimensional gene feature selection.

Abstract
The advent of the digital age has accelerated the transformation and upgrading of the traditional medical diagnosis pattern. With the rise of the concept of digital health, the emerging information technologies, such as machine learning (ML) and data mining (DM), have been extensively applied in the medical and health field, where the construction of disease prediction models is an especially effective method to realize auxiliary medical diagnosis. However, the existing related studies mostly focus on the prediction analysis for a certain disease, using models with which it might be challenging to predict other diseases effectively. To address the issues existing in the aforementioned studies, this paper constructs four novel strategies to achieve a self-adaptive disease prediction process, i.e., the hunger-state foraging strategy of producers (PHFS), the parallel strategy for exploration and exploitation (EEPS), the perturbation-exploration strategy (PES), and the parameter self-adaptive strategy (PSAS), and eventually proposes a self-adaptive disease prediction model with applied universality, strong generalization ability, and strong robustness, i.e., multi-strategies optimization-based kernel extreme learning machine (MsO-KELM). Meanwhile, this paper selects six different real-world disease datasets as the experimental samples, which include the Breast Cancer dataset (cancer), the Parkinson dataset (Parkinson's disease), the Autistic Spectrum Disorder Screening Data for Children dataset (Autism Spectrum Disorder), the Heart Disease dataset (heart disease), the Cleveland dataset (heart disease), and the Bupa dataset (liver disease). In terms of the prediction accuracy, the proposed MsO-KELM can obtain ACC values in analyzing these six diseases of 94.124%, 84.167%, 91.079%, 72.222%, 70.184%, and 70.476%, respectively. These ACC values have all been increased by nearly 2-7% compared with those obtained by the other models mentioned in this paper. This study deepens the connection between information technology and medical health by exploring the self-adaptive disease prediction model, which is an intuitive representation of digital health and could provide a scientific and reliable diagnostic basis for medical workers.

Abstract
In order to separate the sub-signals and extract the feature frequency in the signal accurately, we proposed a parameter-adaptive time-varying filtering empirical mode decomposition (TVF-EMD) feature extraction method based on the improved grasshopper optimization algorithm (IGOA). The method not only improved the local optimal problem of GOA, but could also determine the bandwidth threshold and B-spline order of TVF-EMD adaptively. Firstly, a nonlinear decreasing strategy was introduced in this paper to adjust the decreasing coefficient of GOA dynamically. Then, energy entropy mutual information (EEMI) was introduced to comprehensively consider the energy distribution of the modes and the dependence between the modes and the original signal, and the EEMI was used as the objective function. In addition, TVF-EMD was optimized by IGOA and the optimal parameters matching the input signal were obtained. Finally, the feature frequency of the signal was extracted by analyzing the sensitive mode with larger kurtosis. The optimization experiments of 23 sets of benchmark functions showed that IGOA not only enhanced the balance between exploration and development, but also improved the global and local search ability and stability of the algorithm. The analysis of the simulation signal and bearing signal shows that the parameter-adaptive TVF-EMD method can separate the modes with specific physical meanings accurately. Compared with ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD), variational mode decomposition (VMD), TVF-EMD with fixed parameters and GOA-TVF-EMD, the decomposition performance of the proposed method is better. The proposed method not only improved the under-decomposition, over-decomposition and modal aliasing problems of TVF-EMD, but could also accurately separate the frequency components of the signal and extract the included feature information, so it has practical significance in mechanical fault diagnosis.

Abstract
As a single-layer feedforward network (SLFN), extreme learning machine (ELM) has been successfully applied for classification and regression in machine learning due to its faster training speed and better generalization. However, it will perform poorly for domain adaptation in which the distributions between training data and testing data are inconsistent. In this article, we propose a novel ELM called two-stage transfer extreme learning machine (TSTELM) to solve this problem. At the statistical matching stage, we adopt maximum mean discrepancy (MMD) to narrow the distribution difference of the output layer between domains. In addition, at the subspace alignment stage, we align the source and target model parameters, design target cross-domain mean approximation, and add the output weight approximation to further promote the knowledge transferring across domains. Moreover, the prediction of test sample is jointly determined by the ELM parameters generated at the two stages. Finally, we investigate the proposed approach in classification task and conduct experiments on four public domain adaptation datasets. The result indicates that TSTELM could effectively enhance the knowledge transfer ability of ELM with higher accuracy than other existing transfer and non-transfer classifiers.

Abstract
Breast cancer is a top dangerous killer for women. An accurate early diagnosis of breast cancer is the primary step for treatment. A novel breast cancer detection model called SAFNet is proposed based on ultrasound images and deep learning. We employ a pre-trained ResNet-18 embedded with the spatial attention mechanism as the backbone model. Three randomized network models are trained for prediction in the SAFNet, which are fused by majority voting to produce more accurate results. A public ultrasound image dataset is utilized to evaluate the generalization ability of our SAFNet using 5-fold cross-validation. The simulation experiments reveal that the SAFNet can produce higher classification results compared with four existing breast cancer classification methods. Therefore, our SAFNet is an accurate tool to detect breast cancer that can be applied in clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
College students are the group with the most entrepreneurial vitality and potential. How to cultivate their entrepreneurial and innovative ability is one of the important and urgent issues facing this current social development. This paper proposes a reliable, intelligent prediction model of entrepreneurial intentions, providing theoretical support for guiding college students’ positive entrepreneurial intentions. The model mainly uses the improved crow search algorithm (CSA) to optimize the kernel extreme learning machine (KELM) model with feature selection (FS), namely CSA-KELM-FS, to study entrepreneurial intention. To obtain the best fitting model and key features, the gradient search rule, local escaping operator, and levy flight mutation (GLL) mechanism are introduced to enhance the CSA (GLLCSA), and FS is used to extract the key features. To verify the performance of the proposed GLLCSA, it is compared with eight other state-of-the-art methods. Further, the GLLCSA-KELM-FS model and five other machine learning methods have been used to predict the entrepreneurial intentions of 842 students from the Wenzhou Vocational College in Zhejiang, China, in the past five years. The results show that the proposed model can correctly predict the students’ entrepreneurial intention with an accuracy rate of 93.2% and excellent stability. According to the prediction results of the proposed model, the key factors affecting the student’s entrepreneurial intention are mainly the major studied, campus innovation, entrepreneurship practice experience, and positive personality. Therefore, the proposed GLLCSA-KELM-FS is expected to be an effective tool for predicting students’ entrepreneurial intentions.

Abstract
COVID-19 is currently raging worldwide, with more patients being diagnosed every day. It usually is diagnosed by examining pathological photographs of the patient's lungs. There is a lot of detailed and essential information on chest radiographs, but manual processing is not as efficient or accurate. As a result, how efficiently analyzing and processing chest radiography of COVID-19 patients is an important research direction to promote COVID-19 diagnosis. To improve the processing efficiency of COVID-19 chest films, a multilevel thresholding image segmentation (MTIS) method based on an enhanced multiverse optimizer (CCMVO) is proposed. CCMVO is improved from the original Multi-Verse Optimizer by introducing horizontal and vertical search mechanisms. It has a more assertive global search ability and can jump out of the local optimum in optimization. The CCMVO-based MTIS method can obtain higher quality segmentation results than HHO, SCA, and other forms and is less prone to stagnation during the segmentation process. To verify the performance of the proposed CCMVO algorithm, CCMVO is first compared with DE, MVO, and other algorithms by 30 benchmark functions; then, the proposed CCMVO is applied to image segmentation of COVID-19 chest radiography; finally, this paper verifies that the combination of MTIS and CCMVO is very successful with good segmentation results by using the Feature Similarity Index (FSIM), the Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), and the Structural Similarity Index (SSIM). Therefore, this research can provide an effective segmentation method for a medical organization to process COVID-19 chest radiography and then help doctors diagnose coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19).

Abstract
The goal of this research is to offer an effective intelligent model for forecasting college students’ career decisions in order to give a useful reference for career decisions and policy formation by relevant departments. The suggested prediction model is mainly based on a support vector machine (SVM) that has been modified using an enhanced butterfly optimization approach with a communication mechanism and Gaussian bare-bones mechanism (CBBOA). To get a better set of parameters and feature subsets, first, we added a communication mechanism to BOA to improve its global search capability and balance exploration and exploitation trends. Then, Gaussian bare-bones was added to increase the population diversity of BOA and its ability to jump out of the local optimum. The optimal SVM model (CBBOA-SVM) was then developed to predict the career decisions of college students based on the obtained parameters and feature subsets that are already optimized by CBBOA. In order to verify the effectiveness of CBBOA, we compared it with some advanced algorithms on all benchmark functions of CEC2014. Simulation results demonstrated that the performance of CBBOA is indeed more comprehensive. Meanwhile, comparisons between CBBOA-SVM and other machine learning approaches for career decision prediction were carried out, and the findings demonstrate that the provided CBBOA-SVM has better classification and more stable performance. As a result, it is plausible to conclude that the CBBOA-SVM is capable of being an effective tool for predicting college student career decisions.

Abstract
The heap-based optimizer (HBO) is an optimization method proposed in recent years that may face local stagnation problems and show slow convergence speed due to the lack of detailed analysis of optimal solutions and a comprehensive search. Therefore, to mitigate these drawbacks and strengthen the performance of the algorithm in the field of medical diagnosis, a new MGOHBO method is proposed by introducing the modified Rosenbrock's rotational direction method (MRM), an operator from the grey wolf optimizer (GWM), and an orthogonal learning strategy (OL). The MGOHBO is compared with eleven famous and improved optimizers on IEEE CEC 2017. The results on benchmark functions indicate that the boosted MGOHBO has several significant advantages in terms of convergence accuracy and speed of the process. Additionally, this article analyzed the diversity and balance of MGOHBO in detail. Finally, the proposed MGOHBO algorithm is utilized to optimize the kernel extreme learning machines (KELM), and a new MGOHBO-KELM is proposed. To validate the performance of MGOHBO-KELM, seven disease diagnostic questions were introduced for testing in this work. In contrast to advanced models such as HBO-KELM and BP, it can be concluded that the MGOHBO-KELM model can achieve optimal results, which also proves that it has practical significance in solving medical diagnosis problems.

Abstract
The butterfly optimization algorithm (BOA) is a swarm intelligence optimization algorithm proposed in 2019 that simulates the foraging behavior of butterflies. Similarly, the BOA itself has certain shortcomings, such as a slow convergence speed and low solution accuracy. To cope with these problems, two strategies are introduced to improve the performance of BOA. One is the random replacement strategy, which involves replacing the position of the current solution with that of the optimal solution and is used to increase the convergence speed. The other is the crisscross search strategy, which is utilized to trade off the capability of exploration and exploitation in BOA to remove local dilemmas whenever possible. In this case, we propose a novel optimizer named the random replacement crisscross butterfly optimization algorithm (RCCBOA). In order to evaluate the performance of RCCBOA, comparative experiments are conducted with another nine advanced algorithms on the IEEE CEC2014 function test set. Furthermore, RCCBOA is combined with support vector machine (SVM) and feature selection (FS)—namely, RCCBOA-SVM-FS—to attain a standardized construction model of overseas Chinese associations. It is found that the reasonableness of bylaws; the regularity of general meetings; and the right to elect, be elected, and vote are of importance to the planning and standardization of Chinese associations. Compared with other machine learning methods, the RCCBOA-SVM-FS model has an up to 95% accuracy when dealing with the normative prediction problem of overseas Chinese associations. Therefore, the constructed model is helpful for guiding the orderly and healthy development of overseas Chinese associations.

Abstract
Classification models such as Multi-Verse Optimization (MVO) play a vital role in disease diagnosis. To improve the efficiency and accuracy of MVO, in this paper, the defects of MVO are mitigated and the improved MVO is combined with kernel extreme learning machine (KELM) for effective disease diagnosis. Although MVO obtains some relatively good results on some problems of interest, it suffers from slow convergence speed and local optima entrapment for some many-sided basins, especially multi-modal problems with high dimensions. To solve these shortcomings, in this study, a new chaotic simulated annealing overhaul of MVO (CSAMVO) is proposed. Based on MVO, two approaches are adopted to offer a relatively stable and efficient convergence speed. Specifically, a chaotic intensification mechanism (CIP) is applied to the optimal universe evaluation stage to increase the depth of the universe search. After obtaining relatively satisfactory results, the simulated annealing algorithm (SA) is employed to reinforce the capability of MVO to avoid local optima. To evaluate its performance, the proposed CSAMVO approach was compared with a wide range of classical algorithms on thirty-nine benchmark functions. The results show that the improved MVO outperforms the other algorithms in terms of solution quality and convergence speed. Furthermore, based on CSAMVO, a hybrid KELM model termed CSAMVO-KELM is established for disease diagnosis. To evaluate its effectiveness, the new hybrid system was compared with a multitude of competitive classifiers on two disease diagnosis problems. The results demonstrate that the proposed CSAMVO-assisted classifier can find solutions with better learning potential and higher predictive performance.

Abstract
OBJECT With the development of deep learning, the number of training samples for medical image-based diagnosis and treatment models is increasing. Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have attracted attention in medical image processing due to their excellent image generation capabilities and have been widely used in data augmentation. In this paper, a comprehensive and systematic review and analysis of medical image augmentation work are carried out, and its research status and development prospects are reviewed. METHOD This paper reviews 105 medical image augmentation related papers, which mainly collected by ELSEVIER, IEEE Xplore, and Springer from 2018 to 2021. We counted these papers according to the parts of the organs corresponding to the images, and sorted out the medical image datasets that appeared in them, the loss function in model training, and the quantitative evaluation metrics of image augmentation. At the same time, we briefly introduce the literature collected in three journals and three conferences that have received attention in medical image processing. RESULT First, we summarize the advantages of various augmentation models, loss functions, and evaluation metrics. Researchers can use this information as a reference when designing augmentation tasks. Second, we explore the relationship between augmented models and the amount of the training set, and tease out the role that augmented models may play when the quality of the training set is limited. Third, the statistical number of papers shows that the development momentum of this research field remains strong. Furthermore, we discuss the existing limitations of this type of model and suggest possible research directions. CONCLUSION We discuss GAN-based medical image augmentation work in detail. This method effectively alleviates the challenge of limited training samples for medical image diagnosis and treatment models. It is hoped that this review will benefit researchers interested in this field.
