Android malware is a serious threat to the mobile users and their data. The losses incurred are unimaginable, which stretch to the extent of identity theft, financial loss, sensitive information loss, espionage, sabotage, cyber fraud, to mention a few. Android application's permission attributes can be analysed for malware detection using machine learning. However, the high-dimensional permission attributes are the bottleneck in designing optimized malware detection system. Identification of useful permission attributes is an NP-hard problem. bat optimization algorithm for Wrapper-based Feature Selection (BOAWFS) is proposed in this article and evaluated on the CICInvesAndMal2019 benchmark dataset. The performance of BOAWFS is also compared with that of Cuckoo Search optimization for Wrapper-based Feature Selection (CSOWFS) and Grey Wolf optimization for Wrapper-based Feature Selection (GWOWFS). Five classifiers, Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machines (SVMs), K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN), Decision Tree (DT), and Nearest Centroid (NC) are compared for wrapper feature selection. BOAWFS outperformed consistently with all the five classifiers. With 200 agents and 100 iterations, the BOAWFS-DT outperformed with 93.73% accuracy after reducing the features to 518 from 4115. The considerable contribution of BOAWFS is that a 1.67% improvement in accuracy with 87.41% redundancy removal in features is achieved for the very high-dimensional permission-based android malware dataset.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) contain sensor nodes in enormous amount to accumulate the information about the nearby surroundings, and this information is insignificant until the exact position from where data have been collected is revealed. Localization of sensor nodes in WSNs plays a significant role in several applications such as detecting the enemy movement in military applications. The major aim of localization problem is to find the coordinates of all target nodes with the help of anchor nodes. In this paper, two variants of bat optimization algorithm (BOA) are proposed to localize the sensor nodes in a more efficient way and to overcome the drawbacks of original BOA, i.e. being trapped in local optimum solution. The exploration and exploitation features of original BOA are modified in the proposed BOA variants 1 and 2 using improved global and local search strategies. To validate the efficiency of the proposed BOA variants 1 and 2, several simulations have been performed for various numbers of target nodes and anchor nodes, and the results are compared with original BOA and other existing optimizationalgorithms applied to node localization problem. The proposed BOA variants 1 and 2 outperform the other algorithms in terms of mean localization error, number of localized nodes and computing time. Further, the proposed BOA variants 1 and 2 and original BOA are also compared in terms of various errors and localization efficiency for several values of target and anchor nodes. The simulations results signify that the proposed BOA variant 2 is superior to the proposed BOA variant 1 and existing BOA in terms of several errors. The node localization based on the proposed BOA variant 2 is more effective as it takes less time to perform computations and has less mean localization error than the proposed BOA variant 1, BOA and other existing optimizationalgorithms.

In this study, a damage identification method is proposed using both the finite element method and the bat optimization algorithm applied to the AS-350 helicopter main rotor blade. First, the structure is numerically modeled and evaluated with and without the presence of induced damages. In a second approach, an inverse problem of optimization is constructed in order to identify certain damages in terms of its position and severity level. Three different objective functions are evaluated according to the modal parameters of the rotor blade (vibrations in x, y and z directions). Numerical results, through analysis of variance, showed that local damage significantly modifies the modal response into a non-linear aspect. The modal response used was able to identify, with great efficiency, the actual (noise simulated) damages induced in terms of location and severity. Accordingly, a damage identification method is developed in order to better handle any measurement data (to find/regarding) structural changes (or damages) in complex aerospace structures. The obtained results from these numerical examples indicate that the proposed approach can detect true damage locations and estimate damage magnitudes with satisfactory accuracy, even under high measurement noise.

Explosion detection is one the important issues to protect people's lives from terrorist attacks. Technological advances have significantly reduced the possibility of terrorist attacks. One of the technologies that improved the explosion detection accuracy is Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), which has gained researches' attention. WSN is widely used in medical systems, industries and military systems to collect data from sensor nodes placed in particular locations. For precise and high speed communications, optical sensor nodes are widely used recently. In this paper, the main objective is to detect explosion in an optical pressure sensor network. To meet this goal, an evolutionary algorithm, bat optimization algorithm, is employed. The proposed method results in reducing energy consumption and improving the service quality. Simulation results indicates the superiority of the proposed algorithm for explosion detection in compare to previous methods proposed for the same problem.

Deployment of sensor nodes in three dimensional areas with sufficient coverage of sensor nodes is one of the major challenges in wireless sensor network. Coverage is main concern in node deployment because it influences the performance of wireless sensor network. For better performance of wireless sensor network it is essential to increase the coverage of nodes by locating the nodes at optimum positions with help of efficient optimizationalgorithm. In this paper the sensor nodes are located by using Hybrid fruit fly optimizationalgorithm and bat optimization algorithm in three dimensional environment. The exploration feature of fruit fly optimizationalgorithm is combined with exploitation characteristics of bat optimization algorithm in proposed algorithm. The grid points covered once by sensor node are removed from entire grid points for remaining nodes. With removal of grid points the overload on sensor nodes is reduced in proposed algorithm. The simulation results of Hybrid fruit fly optimizationalgorithm and bat optimization algorithm are compared in terms of variance, standard deviation, coverage rate and coefficient of dispersion with fruit fly optimizationalgorithm and bat optimization algorithm. Moreover, to verify the efficiency of proposed algorithm the results are also compared with other optimizationalgorithms such as artificial bee colony algorithm with dynamic search strategy, grey wolf optimizationalgorithm, enhanced grey wolf optimizationalgorithm, whale optimizationalgorithm, hybrid shuffled frog leaping algorithm and whale optimizationalgorithm, differential evolution algorithm, shuffled frog leaping algorithm, hybrid shuffled frog leaping algorithm and whale optimizationalgorithm based on differential evolution respectively. The simulation result signifies that proposed Hybrid fruit fly optimizationalgorithm and bat optimization algorithm is efficient than above stated existing optimizationalgorithm in terms of average coverage rate.

This paper proposes a new nature inspired optimization technique known as bat optimization algorithm ( batOA) for optimal design of Power System Stabilizer ( PSS) in order to damp power system oscillations usually tempt to grow in multi machine power system when a fault is occurred. The design problem of PSS is formulated as an optimization problem to minimize the value of objective function. batalgorithm is then employed to search for best parameters of PSS for which the value of objective function is global minimum under all boundary conditions. In the simulation, the linearized model of power system and conventional lead-lag controller as PSS structure are used. The results obtained from batOA are compared with the obtained results using Particle Swarm optimization ( PSO) algorithm. The comparison of both algorithm reveals the effectiveness of batOA over PSO in tuning of PSS parameters for multi machine power system.
