Developing an optimized groundwater exploitation prediction model based on the Harris hawk optimization algorithm for conjunctive use of surface water and groundwater resources. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:16120-16139. [PMID: 36175728 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-022-23224-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Due to the lack of surface water and groundwater resources, especially in the agricultural parts, the simultaneous and sustainable use of water resources to supply water demands is essential. In this study, a conjunctive use optimization model is developed to minimize the shortage of water demand. This model is implemented for the Mahabad study area in northwestern Iran to improve the conditions of surface water and groundwater resources and the reclamation of Urmia Lake. For this purpose, the current research is accomplished in three parts. At first, the Mahabad aquifer is numerically simulated to investigate the aquifer conditions. In the second part, the optimized model of conjunctive use obtained by the Harris hawk optimization (HHO) algorithm is investigated over a 20-year period in the study area. In the last part of this research, seven scenarios are developed to predict the optimized groundwater exploitation (OGE) using the results of HHO, meteorological data, and some input information on the dam reservoir. Then, the OGE values are predicted using the artificial neural network (ANN) and ANN-HHO machine learning models for the scenarios. The results showed that the scenario that includes all input variables and the ANN-HHO model outperformed other models. Furthermore, the HHO algorithm provides suitable allocation of the surface water and groundwater resources in optimized conjunctive use and also improves the performance of ANN in predicting the OGE values. The findings of this study also show that groundwater resources can be more applied to supply water demand, and in contrast, surface water resources can be used for supplying downstream environmental demands and reclamation of Urmia Lake.

Enhanced Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm for Parameter Estimation of PID Controller. ARABIAN JOURNAL FOR SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING 2023; 48:2191-2205. [PMID: 36042895 PMCID: PMC9411853 DOI: 10.1007/s13369-022-07136-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2022] [Accepted: 07/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
The Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller is a key component in most engineering applications. The main disadvantage of PID is the selection of the best values for its parameters using traditional methods that do not achieve the best response. In this work, the recently released empirical identification algorithm that is the Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm (AOA) was used to determine the best values of the PID parameters. AOA was selected due to its effective exploration ability. Unfortunately, AOA cannot achieve the best parameter values due to its poor exploitation of search space. Hence, the performance of the AOA exploit is improved by combining it with the Harris Hawk Optimization (HHO) algorithm which has an efficient exploit mechanism. In addition, avoidance of trapping in the local lower bounds of AOA-HHO is enhanced by the inclusion of perturbation and mutation factors. The proposed AOA-HHO algorithm is tested when choosing the best values for PID parameters to control two engineering applications namely DC motor regulation and three fluid level sequential tank systems. AOA-HHO has superiority over AOA and comparative algorithms.

Abstract
To overcome the lack of flexibility of Harris Hawks Optimization (HHO) in switching between exploration and exploitation, and the low efficiency of its exploitation phase, an efficient improved greedy Harris Hawks Optimizer (IGHHO) is proposed and applied to the feature selection (FS) problem. IGHHO uses a new transformation strategy that enables flexible switching between search and development, enabling it to jump out of local optima. We replace the original HHO exploitation process with improved differential perturbation and a greedy strategy to improve its global search capability. We tested it in experiments against seven algorithms using single-peaked, multi-peaked, hybrid, and composite CEC2017 benchmark functions, and IGHHO outperformed them on optimization problems with different feature functions. We propose new objective functions for the problem of data imbalance in FS and apply IGHHO to it. IGHHO outperformed comparison algorithms in terms of classification accuracy and feature subset length. The results show that IGHHO applies not only to global optimization of different feature functions but also to practical optimization problems.

Abstract
Landslides are the most catastrophic geological hazard in hilly areas. The present work intends to identify landslide susceptibility along Karakorum Highway (KKH) in Northern Pakistan, using landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM). To compare and predict the connection between causative factors and landslides, the random forest (RF), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), k nearest neighbor (KNN) and naive Bayes (NB) models were used in this research. Interferometric synthetic aperture radar persistent scatterer interferometry (PS-InSAR) technology was used to explore the displacement movement of retrieved models. Initially, 332 landslide areas alongside the Karakorum Highway were found to generate the landslide inventory map using various data. The landslides were categorized into two sections for validation and training, of 30% and 70%. For susceptibility mapping, thirteen landslide-condition factors were created. The area under curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve technique was utilized for accuracy comparison, yielding 83.08, 82.15, 80.31, and 72.92% accuracy for RF, XGBoost, KNN, and NB, respectively. The PS-InSAR technique demonstrated a high deformation velocity along the line of sight (LOS) in model-sensitive areas. The PS-InSAR technique was used to evaluate the slope deformation velocity, which can be used to improve the LSM for the research region. The RF technique yielded superior findings, integrating with the PS-InSAR outcomes to provide the region with a new landslide susceptibility map. The enhanced model will help mitigate landslide catastrophes, and the outcomes may help ensure the roadway’s safe functioning in the study region.

Abstract
This research aims to apply the Harris hawks optimization (HHO) technique connected with a reservoir simulation model to search optimal rule curves of the network reservoir system in Thailand. The downstream water demand from the network reservoir that required shared water discharge, hydrological data, and physical data were considered in the reservoir simulation model. A comparison of the situation of water shortage using optimal rule curves from HHO technique, genetic algorithm (GA), and wind-driven optimization (WDO) is presented. The results showed that the new rule curves derived from the HHO technique with network reservoir searching were able to alleviate the water shortage and over-flow situations better than the current rule curves. The efficiency of using rule curves from HHO technique compared to GA and WDO techniques showed that the HHO technique can provide a better solution that reduced water scarcity and average over-flow compared with the current rule curves by up to 4.80%, 4.70%, and 4.50%, respectively. In addition, HHO was efficient in converging rule curve solutions faster than GA and WDO techniques by 15.00% and 54.00%, respectively. In conclusion, the HHO technique can be used to search for optimal network reservoir rule curves solutions effectively.

Abstract
Limited groundwater resources and their overexploitation have become major challenges for sustainable development worldwide. In this study, an innovative hybrid approach was proposed to generate a groundwater spring potential map (GSPM) from the Sarab plain located in Lorestan Province, Iran, which includes the new best-worst method (BWM), stepwise weight assessment ratio analysis (SWARA), support vector machine learning method (SVR), Harris hawk optimization (HHO), and bat algorithms (BA). The first step involved the inventory of a map prepared to contain 610 spring locations. Randomly, 70% of the spring points were selected as training data, and the remaining 30% were selected for validation. Based on the review of the literature and available data, thirteen factors were generated as independent variables. The BWM and SWARA methods were used to identify correlations between the occurrence of springs and factors. Finally, using SVR-BA and SVR-HHO hybrid models, potential maps of groundwater springs were generated and then evaluated with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and several statistical evaluators such as sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and kappa index. Validation of the training data set showed that the success rates for the SWARA-SVR-BA, SWARA-SVR-HHO, BWM-SVR-BA, and BWM-SVR-HHO models were 92.6%, 93.7%, 95.9%, and 96.4%, respectively. The results revealed that with a small difference, BWM-SVR-HHO performed better in training compared to other models. Evaluation of the prediction rate showed that the values of the area under the ROC curve for SWARA-SVR-BA, SWARA-SVR-HHO, BWM-SVR-HHO, and BWM-SVR-BA were 91.7%, 92.4%, 93.3%, and 94.7%, respectively. According to the results, although all models had excellent performance with more than 90% accuracy, BWM-SVR-BA was more accurate in predicting. The hybrid models presented in this study can be used as an accurate and effective methodology to improve the results of spatial modeling of the probability of groundwater occurrence.

Abstract
As an area experiencing air pollution, especially ozone concentrations that often exceed the threshold or are unhealthy, JABODETABEK (Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi) seeks to prevent and control pollution as well as restore air quality. Therefore, this study aims to build a predictive model of ozone concentration using Harris hawks optimization-support vector regression (HHO-SVR) in 14 sub-districts in JABODETABEK. This goal is achieved by collecting data on ozone concentration as a response variable and meteorological factors as predictor variables from the website that provides the data. Other predictor variables such as time and significant lag detected with partial autocorrelation function of ozone concentration were also used. Then the variables will be selected using the recursive feature elimination-support vector regression (RFE-SVR) to obtain a significant predictor variable that affects the ozone concentration. After that, the prediction model will be built using the HHO-SVR method, support vector regression (SVR) whose parameter values are optimized with the Harris hawks optimization (HHO) algorithm. When the model has been formed, several evaluation metrics used to determine the best model include mean absolute error (MAE), root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), Coefficient of Determination (R2), Variance Ratio (VR), and Diebold-Mariano test. The results of this study indicate that lag 1, lag 2, air temperature, humidity, and UV index are significant predictor variables of the RFE-SVR results for most sub-districts. In general, the HHO process takes longer than other metaheuristic algorithms. On average, 7 of the 14 sub-districts using the HHO-SVR model yielded the best predictions with MAE below 10, RMSE and MAPE below 20, R2 around 0.97, and VR around 0.98. Then, the results of the Diebold-Mariano test also show that the accuracy of the prediction results and the stability of the performance of the HHO-SVR model is better, especially for the Ciputat and South Bekasi sub-districts. This shows that the two sub-districts are very suitable to use HHO-SVR in predicting ozone concentrations.

Abstract
Aquila Optimizer (AO) and Harris Hawks Optimizer (HHO) are recently proposed meta-heuristic optimization algorithms. AO possesses strong global exploration capability but insufficient local exploitation ability. However, the exploitation phase of HHO is pretty good, while the exploration capability is far from satisfactory. Considering the characteristics of these two algorithms, an improved hybrid AO and HHO combined with a nonlinear escaping energy parameter and random opposition-based learning strategy is proposed, namely IHAOHHO, to improve the searching performance in this paper. Firstly, combining the salient features of AO and HHO retains valuable exploration and exploitation capabilities. In the second place, random opposition-based learning (ROBL) is added in the exploitation phase to improve local optima avoidance. Finally, the nonlinear escaping energy parameter is utilized better to balance the exploration and exploitation phases of IHAOHHO. These two strategies effectively enhance the exploration and exploitation of the proposed algorithm. To verify the optimization performance, IHAOHHO is comprehensively analyzed on 23 standard benchmark functions. Moreover, the practicability of IHAOHHO is also highlighted by four industrial engineering design problems. Compared with the original AO and HHO and five state-of-the-art algorithms, the results show that IHAOHHO has strong superior performance and promising prospects.

Prediction of meteorological drought by using hybrid support vector regression optimized with HHO versus PSO algorithms.

Abstract
Drought is considered one of the costliest natural disasters that result in water scarcity and crop damage almost every year. Drought monitoring and forecasting are essential for the efficient management of water resources and sustainability in agriculture. However, the design of a consistent drought prediction model based on the dynamic relationship of the drought index with its antecedent values remains a challenging task. In the present research, the SVR (support vector regression) model was hybridized with two different optimization algorithms namely; Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Harris Hawks Optimization (HHO) for reliable prediction of effective drought index (EDI) 1 month ahead, at different locations of Uttarakhand State of India. The inputs of the models were selected through partial autocorrelation function (PACF) analysis. The output produced by the SVR-HHO and SVR-PSO models was compared with the EDI estimated from observed data using five statistical indicators, i.e., RMSE (Root Mean Square Error), MAE (Mean Absolute Error), COC (Coefficient of Correlation), NSE (Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency), WI (Willmott Index), and graphical inspection of radar-chart, time-variation plot, box-whisker plot, and Taylor diagram. Appraisal of results indicates that the SVR-HHO model (RMSE = 0.535-0.965, MAE = 0.363-0.622, NSE = 0.558-0.860, COC = 0.760-0.930, and WI = 0.862-0.959) outperformed the SVR-PSO model (RMSE = 0.546-0.967, MAE = 0.372-0.625, NSE = 0.556-0.855, COC = 0.758-0.929, and WI = 0.861-0.956) in predicting EDI. Visual inspection of model performances also showed a better performance of SVR-HHO compared to SVR-PSO in replicating the median, inter-quartile range, spread, and pattern of the EDI estimated from observed rainfall. The results indicate that the hybrid SVR-HHO approach can be utilized for reliable EDI predictions in the study area.

Abstract
The prediction accuracy of support vector regression (SVR) is highly influenced by a kernel function. However, its performance suffers on large datasets, and this could be attributed to the computational limitations of kernel learning. To tackle this problem, this paper combines SVR with the emerging Harris hawks optimization (HHO) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms to form two hybrid SVR algorithms, SVR-HHO and SVR-PSO. Both the two proposed algorithms and traditional SVR were applied to load forecasting in four different states of Nigeria. The correlation coefficient (R), coefficient of determination (R2), mean square error (MSE), root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) were used as indicators to evaluate the prediction accuracy of the algorithms. The results reveal that there is an increase in performance for both SVR-HHO and SVR-PSO over traditional SVR. SVR-HHO has the highest R2 values of 0.9951, 0.8963, 0.9951, and 0.9313, the lowest MSE values of 0.0002, 0.0070, 0.0002, and 0.0080, and the lowest MAPE values of 0.1311, 0.1452, 0.0599, and 0.1817, respectively, for Kano, Abuja, Niger, and Lagos State. The results of SVR-HHO also prove more advantageous over SVR-PSO in all the states concerning load forecasting skills. This paper also designed a hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) that consists of solar photovoltaic (PV) panels, wind turbines, and batteries. As inputs, the system used solar radiation, temperature, wind speed, and the predicted load demands by SVR-HHO in all the states. The system was optimized by using the PSO algorithm to obtain the optimal configuration of the HRES that will satisfy all constraints at the minimum cost.

Improving feature selection performance for classification of gene expression data using Harris Hawks optimizer with variable neighborhood learning. Brief Bioinform 2021; 22:6238587.

Abstract
Gene expression profiling has played a significant role in the identification and classification of tumor molecules. In gene expression data, only a few feature genes are closely related to tumors. It is a challenging task to select highly discriminative feature genes, and existing methods fail to deal with this problem efficiently. This article proposes a novel metaheuristic approach for gene feature extraction, called variable neighborhood learning Harris Hawks optimizer (VNLHHO). First, the F-score is used for a primary selection of the genes in gene expression data to narrow down the selection range of the feature genes. Subsequently, a variable neighborhood learning strategy is constructed to balance the global exploration and local exploitation of the Harris Hawks optimization. Finally, mutation operations are employed to increase the diversity of the population, so as to prevent the algorithm from falling into a local optimum. In addition, a novel activation function is used to convert the continuous solution of the VNLHHO into binary values, and a naive Bayesian classifier is utilized as a fitness function to select feature genes that can help classify biological tissues of binary and multi-class cancers. An experiment is conducted on gene expression profile data of eight types of tumors. The results show that the classification accuracy of the VNLHHO is greater than 96.128% for tumors in the colon, nervous system and lungs and 100% for the rest. We compare seven other algorithms and demonstrate the superiority of the VNLHHO in terms of the classification accuracy, fitness value and AUC value in feature selection for gene expression data.

Abstract
We introduce novel hybrid ensemble models in gully erosion susceptibility mapping (GESM) through a case study in the Bastam sedimentary plain of Northern Iran. Four new ensemble models including credal decision tree-bagging (CDT-BA), credal decision tree-dagging (CDT-DA), credal decision tree-rotation forest (CDT-RF), and credal decision tree-alternative decision tree (CDT-ADTree) are employed for mapping the gully erosion susceptibility (GES) with the help of 14 predictor factors and 293 gully locations. The relative significance of GECFs in modelling GES is assessed by random forest algorithm. Two cut-off-independent (area under success rate curve and area under predictor rate curve) and six cut-off-dependent metrics (accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, F-score, odd ratio and Cohen Kappa) were utilized based on both calibration as well as testing dataset. Drainage density, distance to road, rainfall and NDVI were found to be the most influencing predictor variables for GESM. The CDT-RF (AUSRC = 0.942, AUPRC = 0.945, accuracy = 0.869, specificity = 0.875, sensitivity = 0.864, RMSE = 0.488, F-score = 0.869 and Cohen's Kappa = 0.305) was found to be the most robust model which showcased outstanding predictive accuracy in mapping GES. Our study shows that the GESM can be utilized for conserving soil resources and for controlling future gully erosion.

Abstract
Recurrent floods are one of the major global threats among people, particularly in developing countries like India, as this nation has a tropical monsoon type of climate. Therefore, flood susceptibility (FS) mapping is indeed necessary to overcome this type of natural hazard phenomena. With this in mind, we evaluated the prediction performance of FS mapping in the Koiya River basin, Eastern India. The present research work was done through preparation of a sophisticated flood inventory map; eight flood conditioning variables were selected based on the topography and hydro-climatological condition, and by applying the novel ensemble approach of hyperpipes (HP) and support vector regression (SVR) machine learning (ML) algorithms. The ensemble approach of HP-SVR was also compared with the stand-alone ML algorithms of HP and SVR. In relative importance of variables, distance to river was the most dominant factor for flood occurrences followed by rainfall, land use land cover (LULC), and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). The validation and accuracy assessment of FS maps was done through five popular statistical methods. The result of accuracy evaluation showed that the ensemble approach is the most optimal model (AUC = 0.915, sensitivity = 0.932, specificity = 0.902, accuracy = 0.928 and Kappa = 0.835) in FS assessment, followed by HP (AUC = 0.885) and SVR (AUC = 0.871).

Abstract
Development of landslide predictive models with strong prediction power has become a major focus of many researchers. This study describes the first application of the Hyperpipes (HP) algorithm for the development of the five novel ensemble models that combine the HP algorithm and the AdaBoost (AB), Bagging (B), Dagging, Decorate, and Real AdaBoost (RAB) ensemble techniques for mapping the spatial variability of landslide susceptibility in the Nam Dan commune, Ha Giang province, Vietnam. Information on 76 historical landslides and ten geo-environmental factors (slope degree, slope aspect, elevation, topographic wetness index, curvature, weathering crust, geology, river density, fault density, and distance from roads) were used for the construction of the training and validation datasets that are the prerequisites for building and testing the proposed models. Using different performance metrics (i.e., the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), negative predictive value, positive predictive value, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, root mean square error, and Kappa), we verified the proficiency of all five ensemble learning techniques in increasing the fitness and predictive powers of the base HP model. Based on the AUC values derived from the models, the ensemble ABHP model that yielded an AUC value of 0.922 was identified as the most efficient model for mapping the landslide susceptibility in the Nam Dan commune, followed by RABHP (AUC = 0.919), BHP (AUC = 0.909), Dagging-HP (AUC = 0.897), Decorate-HP (AUC = 0.865), and the single HP model (AUC = 0.856), respectively. The novel ensemble models proposed for the Nam Dan commune and the resultant susceptibility maps can aid land-use planners in the development of efficient mitigation strategies in response to destructive landslides.

Job Scheduling in Cloud Computing Using a Modified Harris Hawks Optimization and Simulated Annealing Algorithm. COMPUTATIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND NEUROSCIENCE 2020; 2020:3504642. [PMID: 32256551 PMCID: PMC7086411 DOI: 10.1155/2020/3504642] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2019] [Accepted: 02/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
In recent years, cloud computing technology has attracted extensive attention from both academia and industry. The popularity of cloud computing was originated from its ability to deliver global IT services such as core infrastructure, platforms, and applications to cloud customers over the web. Furthermore, it promises on-demand services with new forms of the pricing package. However, cloud job scheduling is still NP-complete and became more complicated due to some factors such as resource dynamicity and on-demand consumer application requirements. To fill this gap, this paper presents a modified Harris hawks optimization (HHO) algorithm based on the simulated annealing (SA) for scheduling jobs in the cloud environment. In the proposed HHOSA approach, SA is employed as a local search algorithm to improve the rate of convergence and quality of solution generated by the standard HHO algorithm. The performance of the HHOSA method is compared with that of state-of-the-art job scheduling algorithms, by having them all implemented on the CloudSim toolkit. Both standard and synthetic workloads are employed to analyze the performance of the proposed HHOSA algorithm. The obtained results demonstrate that HHOSA can achieve significant reductions in makespan of the job scheduling problem as compared to the standard HHO and other existing scheduling algorithms. Moreover, it converges faster when the search space becomes larger which makes it appropriate for large-scale scheduling problems.

An Intelligent Optimization Algorithm for Constructing a DNA Storage Code: NOL-HHO. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:E2191. [PMID: 32235762 PMCID: PMC7139338 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21062191] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2020] [Revised: 03/07/2020] [Accepted: 03/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The high density, large capacity, and long-term stability of DNA molecules make them an emerging storage medium that is especially suitable for the long-term storage of large datasets. The DNA sequences used in storage need to consider relevant constraints to avoid nonspecific hybridization reactions, such as the No-runlength constraint, GC-content, and the Hamming distance. In this work, a new nonlinear control parameter strategy and a random opposition-based learning strategy were used to improve the Harris hawks optimization algorithm (for the improved algorithm NOL-HHO) in order to prevent it from falling into local optima. Experimental testing was performed on 23 widely used benchmark functions, and the proposed algorithm was used to obtain better coding lower bounds for DNA storage. The results show that our algorithm can better maintain a smooth transition between exploration and exploitation and has stronger global exploration capabilities as compared with other algorithms. At the same time, the improvement of the lower bound directly affects the storage capacity and code rate, which promotes the further development of DNA storage technology.

Optimizing an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System for Spatial Prediction of Landslide Susceptibility Using Four State-of-the-art Metaheuristic Techniques. SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2020; 20:E1723. [PMID: 32204505 PMCID: PMC7147714 DOI: 10.3390/s20061723] [Citation(s) in RCA: 46] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2020] [Revised: 03/09/2020] [Accepted: 03/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Four state-of-the-art metaheuristic algorithms including the genetic algorithm (GA), particle swarm optimization (PSO), differential evolutionary (DE), and ant colony optimization (ACO) are applied to an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for spatial prediction of landslide susceptibility in Qazvin Province (Iran). To this end, the landslide inventory map, composed of 199 identified landslides, is divided into training and testing landslides with a 70:30 ratio. To create the spatial database, thirteen landslide conditioning factors are considered within the geographic information system (GIS). Notably, the spatial interaction between the landslides and mentioned conditioning factors is analyzed by means of frequency ratio (FR) theory. After the optimization process, it was shown that the DE-based model reaches the best response more quickly than other ensembles. The landslide susceptibility maps were developed, and the accuracy of the models was evaluated by a ranking system, based on the calculated area under the receiving operating characteristic curve (AUROC), mean absolute error, and mean square error (MSE) accuracy indices. According to the results, the GA-ANFIS with a total ranking score (TRS) = 24 presented the most accurate prediction, followed by PSO-ANFIS (TRS = 17), DE-ANFIS (TRS = 13), and ACO-ANFIS (TRS = 6). Due to the excellent results of this research, the developed landslide susceptibility maps can be applied for future planning and decision making of the related area.

Landslide Susceptibility Prediction Modeling Based on Remote Sensing and a Novel Deep Learning Algorithm of a Cascade-Parallel Recurrent Neural Network. SENSORS 2020; 20:s20061576. [PMID: 32178235 PMCID: PMC7146231 DOI: 10.3390/s20061576] [Citation(s) in RCA: 43] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2020] [Revised: 02/26/2020] [Accepted: 03/06/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Landslide susceptibility prediction (LSP) modeling is an important and challenging problem. Landslide features are generally uncorrelated or nonlinearly correlated, resulting in limited LSP performance when leveraging conventional machine learning models. In this study, a deep-learning-based model using the long short-term memory (LSTM) recurrent neural network and conditional random field (CRF) in cascade-parallel form was proposed for making LSPs based on remote sensing (RS) images and a geographic information system (GIS). The RS images are the main data sources of landslide-related environmental factors, and a GIS is used to analyze, store, and display spatial big data. The cascade-parallel LSTM-CRF consists of frequency ratio values of environmental factors in the input layers, cascade-parallel LSTM for feature extraction in the hidden layers, and cascade-parallel full connection for classification and CRF for landslide/non-landslide state modeling in the output layers. The cascade-parallel form of LSTM can extract features from different layers and merge them into concrete features. The CRF is used to calculate the energy relationship between two grid points, and the extracted features are further smoothed and optimized. As a case study, the cascade-parallel LSTM-CRF was applied to Shicheng County of Jiangxi Province in China. A total of 2709 landslide grid cells were recorded and 2709 non-landslide grid cells were randomly selected from the study area. The results show that, compared with existing main traditional machine learning algorithms, such as multilayer perception, logistic regression, and decision tree, the proposed cascade-parallel LSTM-CRF had a higher landslide prediction rate (positive predictive rate: 72.44%, negative predictive rate: 80%, total predictive rate: 75.67%). In conclusion, the proposed cascade-parallel LSTM-CRF is a novel data-driven deep learning model that overcomes the limitations of traditional machine learning algorithms and achieves promising results for making LSPs.

Abstract
The main objective of this study is to propose a novel hybrid model of a sequential minimal optimization and support vector machine (SMOSVM) for accurate landslide susceptibility mapping. For this task, one of the landslide prone areas of Vietnam, the Mu Cang Chai District located in Yen Bai Province was selected. In total, 248 landslide locations and 15 landslide-affecting factors were selected for landslide modeling and analysis. Predictive capability of SMOSVM was evaluated and compared with other landslide models, namely a hybrid model of the cascade generalization optimization-based support vector machine (CGSVM), individual models, such as support vector machines (SVM) and naïve Bayes trees (NBT). For validation, different quantitative criteria such as statistical based methods and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) technique were used. Results of the study show that the SMOSVM model (AUC = 0.824) has the highest performance for landslide susceptibility mapping, followed by CGSVM (AUC = 0.815), SVM (AUC = 0.804), and NBT (AUC = 0.800) models, respectively. Thus, the proposed novel SMOSVM model is a promising method for better landslide susceptibility mapping and prediction, which can be applied also in other landslide prone areas.

Spatial Landslide Susceptibility Assessment Based on Novel Neural-Metaheuristic Geographic Information System Based Ensembles. SENSORS 2019; 19:s19214698.

Abstract
Regular optimization techniques have been widely used in landslide-related problems. This paper outlines two novel optimizations of artificial neural network (ANN) using grey wolf optimization (GWO) and biogeography-based optimization (BBO) metaheuristic algorithms in the Ardabil province, Iran. To this end, these algorithms are synthesized with a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) neural network for optimizing its computational parameters. The used spatial database consists of fourteen landslide conditioning factors, namely elevation, slope aspect, land use, plan curvature, profile curvature, soil type, distance to river, distance to road, distance to fault, rainfall, slope degree, stream power index (SPI), topographic wetness index (TWI) and lithology. 70% of the identified landslides are randomly selected to train the proposed models and the remaining 30% is used to evaluate the accuracy of them. Also, the frequency ratio theory is used to analyze the spatial interaction between the landslide and conditioning factors. Obtained values of area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, as well as mean square error and mean absolute error showed that both GWO and BBO hybrid algorithms could efficiently improve the learning capability of the MLP. Besides, the BBO-based ensemble surpasses other implemented models.

Abstract
By the assist of remotely sensed data, this study examines the viability of slope stability monitoring using two novel conventional models. The proposed models are considered to be the combination of neuro-fuzzy (NF) system along with invasive weed optimization (IWO) and elephant herding optimization (EHO) evolutionary techniques. Considering the conditioning factors of land use, lithology, soil type, rainfall, distance to the road, distance to the river, slope degree, elevation, slope aspect, profile curvature, plan curvature, stream power index (SPI), and topographic wetness index (TWI), it is aimed to achieve a reliable approximation of landslide occurrence likelihood for unseen environmental conditions. To this end, after training the proposed EHO-NF and IWO-NF ensembles using training landslide events, their generalization power is evaluated by receiving operating characteristic curves. The results demonstrated around 75% accuracy of prediction for both models; however, the IWO-NF achieved a better understanding of landslide distribution pattern. Due to the successful performance of the implemented models, they could be promising alternatives to mathematical and analytical approaches being used for discerning the relationship between the slope failure and environmental parameters.

Abstract
The heating load calculation is the first step of the iterative heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) design procedure. In this study, we employed six machine learning techniques, namely multi-layer perceptron regressor (MLPr), lazy locally weighted learning (LLWL), alternating model tree (AMT), random forest (RF), ElasticNet (ENet), and radial basis function regression (RBFr) for the problem of designing energy-efficient buildings. After that, these approaches were used to specify a relationship among the parameters of input and output in terms of the energy performance of buildings. The calculated outcomes for datasets from each of the above-mentioned models were analyzed based on various known statistical indexes like root relative squared error (RRSE), root mean squared error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), correlation coefficient (R2), and relative absolute error (RAE). It was found that between the discussed machine learning-based solutions of MLPr, LLWL, AMT, RF, ENet, and RBFr, the RF was nominated as the most appropriate predictive network. The RF network outcomes determined the R2, MAE, RMSE, RAE, and RRSE for the training dataset to be 0.9997, 0.19, 0.2399, 2.078, and 2.3795, respectively. The RF network outcomes determined the R2, MAE, RMSE, RAE, and RRSE for the testing dataset to be 0.9989, 0.3385, 0.4649, 3.6813, and 4.5995, respectively. These results show the superiority of the presented RF model in estimation of early heating load in energy-efficient buildings.

Abstract
Developing metaheuristic algorithms has been paid more recent attention from researchers and scholars to address the optimization problems in many fields of studies. This paper proposes a novel adaptation of the multi-group quasi-affine transformation evolutionary algorithm for global optimization. Enhanced population diversity for adaptation multi-group quasi-affine transformation evolutionary algorithm is implemented by randomly dividing its population into three groups. Each group adopts a mutation strategy differently for improving the efficiency of the algorithm. The scale factor F of mutations is updated adaptively during the search process with the different policies along with proper parameter to make a better trade-off between exploration and exploitation capability. In the experimental section, the CEC2013 test suite and the node localization in wireless sensor networks were used to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm. The experimental results are compared results with three quasi-affine transformation evolutionary algorithm variants, two different evolution variants, and two particle swarm optimization variants show that the proposed adaptation multi-group quasi-affine transformation evolutionary algorithm outperforms the competition algorithms. Moreover, analyzed results of the applied adaptation multi-group quasi-affine transformation evolutionary for node localization in wireless sensor networks showed that the proposed method produces higher localization accuracy than the other competing algorithms.

Abstract
Assessment of the most appropriate groundwater conditioning factors (GCFs) is essential when performing analyses for groundwater potential mapping. For this reason, in this work, we look at three statistical factor analysis methods—Variance Inflation Factor (VIF), Chi-Square Factor Optimization, and Gini Importance—to measure the significance of GCFs. From a total of 15 frequently used GCFs, 11 most effective ones (i.e., altitude, slope angle, plan curvature, profile curvature, topographic wetness index, distance from river, distance from fault, river density, fault density, land use, and lithology) were finally selected. In addition, 917 spring locations were identified and used to train and test three machine learning algorithms, namely Mixture Discriminant Analysis (MDA), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Random Forest (RF). The resultant trained models were then applied for groundwater potential prediction and mapping in the Haraz basin of Mazandaran province, Iran. MDA has been successfully applied for soil erosion and landslide mapping, but has not yet been fully explored for groundwater potential mapping (GPM). Although other discriminant methods, such as LDA, exist, MDA is worth exploring due to its capability to model multivariate nonlinear relationships between variables; it also undertakes a mixture of unobserved subclasses with regularization of non-linear decision boundaries, which could potentially provide more accurate classification. For the validation, areas under Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curves (AUC) were calculated for the three algorithms. RF performed better with AUC value of 84.4%, while MDA and LDA yielded 75.2% and 74.9%, respectively. Although MDA performance is lower than RF, the result is satisfactory, because it is within the acceptable standard of environmental modeling. The outcome of factor analysis and groundwater maps emphasizes on optimization of multicolinearity factors for faster spatial modeling and provides valuable information for government agencies and private sectors to effectively manage groundwater in the region.

Abstract
In this study, we employed various machine learning-based techniques in predicting factor of safety against slope failures. Different regression methods namely, multi-layer perceptron (MLP), Gaussian process regression (GPR), multiple linear regression (MLR), simple linear regression (SLR), support vector regression (SVR) were used. Traditional methods of slope analysis (e.g., first established in the first half of the twentieth century) used widely as engineering design tools. Offering more progressive design tools, such as machine learning-based predictive algorithms, they draw the attention of many researchers. The main objective of the current study is to evaluate and optimize various machine learning-based and multilinear regression models predicting the safety factor. To prepare training and testing datasets for the predictive models, 630 finite limit equilibrium analysis modelling (i.e., a database including 504 training datasets and 126 testing datasets) were employed on a single-layered cohesive soil layer. The estimated results for the presented database from GPR, MLR, MLP, SLR, and SVR were assessed by various methods. Firstly, the efficiency of applied models was calculated employing various statistical indices. As a result, obtained total scores 20, 35, 50, 10, and 35, respectively for GPR, MLR, MLP, SLR, and SVR, revealed that the MLP outperformed other machine learning-based models. In addition, SVR and MLR presented an almost equal accuracy in estimation, for both training and testing phases. Note that, an acceptable degree of efficiency was obtained for GPR and SLR models. However, GPR showed more precision. Following this, the equation of applied MLP and MLR models (i.e., in their optimal condition) was derived, due to the reliability of their results, to be used in similar slope stability problems.
