G-Protein-Coupled Receptors (GPCR) are the large family of protein membrane;and until now some of them still remain orphans. Predicting GPCR functions is a challenging task, it depends closely to their classification, which requires a digital representation of each protein chain as an attribute vector. A major problem of GPCR databases is their great number of features which can produce combinatorial explosion and increase the complexity of classification algorithms. Feature selection techniques are used to deal with this problem by minimizing features space dimension, and keeping the most relevant ones. In this paper, we propose to use the bat algorithm for extracting the pertinent features and to improve the classification results. We compared the results obtained by our system with two other bio-inspired algorithms, Evolutionary algorithm and PSO search. Metrics quality measures used for comparison are Error Rate, Accuracy, MCC and F-measure. Experimental results indicate that our system is more efficient.

This paper presents a new artificial intelligence-based method to address the following problem: given an initial digital image (source image), and a modification of the image (mod image) obtained from the source through a color map and visual attributes assumed to be unknown, determine suitable values for color map and contrast such that, when applied to the mod image, a similar image to the source is obtained. This problem has several applications in the fields of image restoration and cleaning. Our approach is based on the application of a powerful swarm intelligence method called bat algorithm. The method is tested on an illustrative example of the digital image of a famous oil painting. The experimental results show that the method performs very well, with a similarity error rate between the source and the reconstructed images of only 8.37%.

Due to the rapid incline in the number of documents along with social media usage, text categorization has become an important concept. There are tasks required to be fulfilled during the text categorization, such as extracting useful data from different perspectives, reducing the high feature space dimension, and improving effectiveness. In order to accomplish these tasks, feature selection, and feature extraction gain importance. This paper investigates how to solve feature selection and extraction problems. Also, this study aims to decide which topics are the focus of a document. Moreover, the Twitter data-set is utilized as a document and an Uncapacitated P-Median Problem (UPMP) is applied to make clustering. In this study, UPMP is used on Twitter data collection for the first time to collect clustered tweets. Therefore, a novel hybrid genetic bat algorithm (HGBA) is proposed to solve the UPMP for our case. The proposed novel approach is applied to analyze the Twitter data-set of the Nepal earthquake. The first part of the analysis includes the data pre-processing stage. The Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) method is applied to the pre-processed text. After that, a similarity (distance) matrix is generated by utilizing the Jensen Shannon Divergence (JSD) model. The study's main goal is to use Twitter to assess the needs of victims during and after a disaster. To evaluate the applicability of the proposed approach, experiments are conducted on the OR-Library data-set. The results demonstrate that the proposed approach successfully extracts topics and categorizes text.

The basic purpose of resource allocation is to make the most efficient allocation of available resources. It contains resources and the number of tasks. The proposed methodology has two types there are resource discovery and resource allocation. The Multiple Kernel Fuzzy C Means Clustering algorithm (MKFCM) is utilized for resource discovery process. Depends on the MKFCM algorithm the recommended method is group the available resources. Thereafter the resources are allocated with the help of a hybrid optimization technique. Here, resource provisioning algorithm is hybrid with bat algorithm for hybridization approach. The experimental analysis of the proposed mechanism is evaluated based on cost value, memory utilization and time. The prospective strategies have been experimented using the Cloud simulator with Java as the working platform.

In this work, minimum weight optimization of laminated composite is performed using a newly developed enhanced bat algorithm (EBA). bat algorithm (BA) is a recently developed swarm-based optimization technique which is inspired by the echolocation behavior of bats. The standard BA shows premature convergence and reduced convergence speeds under some conditions. So, the EBA is used to perform the design optimization of laminated composites. The laminate analysis based on classical laminate theory is utilized for the stress calculations. Tsai-Wu failure curve is considered as the constraint in this constrained optimization problem. Number of plies at each orientation angle are considered as the design variables. The design optimization has been carried out for both conventional and unconventional (dispersed plies) stacking sequences considering different loading configurations: uniaxial tension, biaxial tension with and without shear loadings. Ply angles dispersed in the range of 5 circle\-85 circle 25 circle-65 circle and 0 circle\-90 circle} at intervals of 5 circle are considered for the unconventional stacking sequence to increase damage tolerance. In addition, a new mathematical function is proposed to measure the dispersion of ply angles in the laminate called the dispersion function. Also, the performance of EBA is compared with standard BA in the optimum weight design of composite laminates.

Clustering as an unsupervised learning method is a process of dividing a data object or observation object into a subset, that is to classify the data through observation learning instead of example learning without the guidance of the prior class label information. bat algorithm (BA) is a swarm intelligence optimization algorithm inspired by bat's ultrasonic echo localization foraging behavior, but it has the disadvantages of being easily trapped into local minima and not being highly accurate. So an improved bat algorithm was proposed. In the global search, a Gaussian-like convergence factor is added, and five different convergence factors are proposed to improve the global optimization ability of the algorithm. In the local search, the hunting mechanism of the whale optimization algorithm (WOA) and the sine position updating strategy are adopted to improve the local optimization ability of the algorithm. This paper compares the clustering effect of the improved bat algorithm with bat algorithm, flower pollination algorithm (FPA), harmony search (HS) algorithm, whale optimization algorithm and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm on seven real data sets under six different convergence factors. The simulation results show that the clustering effect of the improved bat algorithm is superior to other intelligent optimization algorithms.

bat algorithm (BA) is used to track the global peak (GP) of photovoltaic (PV) energy systems due to its fast convergence. Meanwhile, BA has many limitations when it is used as maximum power point tracker (MPPT) of PV systems like the need for re-initialization, and the problem of premature convergence. These problems are solved in this paper by injecting one flying bat to search for greater power than the value of current global best to avoid reinitialization of bats. This proposed strategy sends the flying bat to positions of anticipated peaks when the generated power is changed with certain value to remove the need for reinitialization with highest confidence of capturing the GP. Moreover, the convergence time is reduced by at least 566% compared to the state of the art strategy. The results obtained from this novel strategy showed its superiority in tracking the GP under all operating conditions. (c) 2020 The Authors.

This paper presents an optimized robust digital image watermarking scheme based on Stationary Wavelet Transform (SWT) using bat optimization algorithm (BA) and Speed-Up Robust Feature (SURF). The proposed scheme applies high-frequency coefficients of the SWT of the host image in the BA framework to optimize watermark strength factors in the embedding process, considering relevant attacks. On the final step of this process, the SURF detector is employed on the watermarked image for getting point features used for geometric distortion correction. For watermark extracting, the primary step is to correct probable geometrical distortions, utilizing the SURF rotation and scaling invariance property, and the procedure goes on by executing the reverse of embedding phase steps. For evaluating the capabilities of the proposed algorithm, different types of image processing operations such as Gaussian filtering, scaling, rotation and salt and pepper, Poison, speckle, and Gaussian noise, have been used as attacks. According to the experimental results, the proposed combination of techniques exhibits an overall superior performance in both imperceptibility and robustness metrics in various situations compared to state-of-the-art and relevant methods.

MANET integrates a set of autonomous mobile nodes which move independently and send data through wireless links. Clustering and routing are the commonly employed energy efficient techniques, which can be treated as an NP hard problem and is resolved by computational intelligence algorithms. The mobility of the nodes leads to repeated link failures and low energy efficiency. In order to achieve high energy efficiency and network connectivity, this paper presents a new Fuzzy Extended Krill Herd Optimization with Quantum bat algorithm (FEKHO-QBA) for Cluster Based Routing in MANET. The presented model uses FEKHO algorithm by integrating the concepts of fuzzy logic and KHO algorithm for clustering process and effective selection of cluster heads (CHs). Besides, the QBA is applied as a routing technique to determine the optimal paths to the destination nodes. The QBA involves the features of faster convergence rate, easier to implement, and improved accurateness. The application of FEKHO-QBA algorithm offers maximum energy efficiency and network longevity. For determining the effectual performance of the FEKHO-QBA algorithm, a set of different experiments were carried out and highlighted the supremacy over the compared methods interms of different performance measures.

Multilevel thresholding is one of the most commonly used methods in image segmentation. However, the exhaustive search method is computationally expensive for selecting the optimal thresholds. Therefore, a hybrid bat algorithm with genetic crossover operation and smart inertia weight (SGA-BA) is proposed to choose the optimal thresholds. Furthermore, between-class variance (the Otsu method) and Kapur's entropy are used as objective functions. In the novel SGA-BA, the smart inertia weight balances the SGA-BA's exploration and exploitation based on the number of iterations and fitness values. Moreover, the local search capability of SGA-BA is strengthened by the crossover operation of the genetic algorithm. Meanwhile, the random vector is replaced by the beta distribution, which updates the frequency of bat in a smart way. The proposed SGA-BA was evaluated by a set of benchmark images with various levels of thresholds. Additionally, SGA-BA was compared with some well-known and recent heuristic algorithms, such as the genetic algorithm (GA), gravitational search algorithm (GSA), particle swarm optimization (PSO), whale optimization algorithm (WOA), improved salp swarm algorithm (LSSA) and basic bat algorithm (BA). The experimental results show that the proposed SGA-BA provides better outcomes than the other algorithms. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
