Moutan Cortex (MC), recognized as a traditional Chinese medicinal herb, possesses significant therapeutic properties. The existing quality assessment method only measures the content of one component in MC, which is obviously not comprehensive enough. Besides, the determination process is time-consuming and ***, this article presents a novel approach for the rapid, precise, and efficient quality assessment of MC based on near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) technology in combination with the bionic swarm intelligent optimization algorithms. First, MC samples were collected and acquired with the NIR spectra in diffuse reflectance mode. Second, the content of paeonol, paeoniflorin, and gallic acid in MC was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography, and the content of total flavonoids and phenols was determined by UV-visible spectrophotometry. Afterward, all the measured content was analyzed in correlation with the NIR spectra of MC, and the partial least squares regression method was utilized to build the models. Especially, to improve the models' performance, five famous bionic swarm intelligent optimization algorithms were investigated to perform the wavelength selection. As a result, the models' performance was significantly enhanced. The coefficient of determination (R-2) > 0.9 and residual prediction deviation (RPD) > 3 were observed on the calibration set and the prediction set. Thus, we believe that bionic swarm intelligent optimization algorithms have the potential to enhance the performance of quantitative models considerably, which offers substantial support for the quality assessment of MC and shows promising applications in the domain of NIR analysis.

As one of the most critical blocks of the CMOS image sensor (CIS), the accuracy and power consumption of the analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) play an important role in its performance. However, due to the mutually restrictive relationship between power consumption and accuracy in the single-slope ADC (SS ADC), it is difficult to improve these performance indexes meantime without an efficient optimal design method. Here, an optimal design methodology based on an improved artificial fish swarmoptimizationalgorithm (IAFSOA) is proposed for a 10-bit SS ADC in CIS. First, a voltage storage structure and offset calibration circuit are developed for promoting the performance of the comparator. Then, IAFSOA is developed for the circuit parameters optimization with faster convergence rate and higher computational accuracy. The proposed multi-objectives optimizationalgorithm can obtain the optimal parameters of the kernel circuit components and lead to an enhancement of both power consumption and accuracy. The optimized SS ADC is designed based on 0.18 mu m process to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. Compared to the earlier reported work, the IAFSOA-based optimal design method can promote the performance of the SS ADC by an improvement of effective number of bits and a reduction of power consumption.

Nonlinear piezoelectric energy harvesters (NPEHs) have garnered significant interest due to their wide harvesting bandwidth and high efficiency. Nevertheless, their inherent complexity introduces design challenges. The Harmonic Balance Method (HBM) and the Sweep Method (SM) are commonly employed analytical tools;however, both have limitations in generating accurate frequency response curves (FRCs). Combining these methods leverages their respective strengths. The swarm intelligent optimization algorithm (SIOA) effectively identifies all roots in the nonlinear algebraic equations derived from HBM. Further advancements have been achieved with the Enhanced Exploration-Exploitation SIOA (E3SIOA), which significantly improves performance. The proposed E3SIOA-based SM-HBM analysis framework has led to the discovery of previously unidentified nonlinear dynamical phenomena, such as isolated high-energy orbits (HEOs) and the "broken band" effect. These newly identified phenomena, previously overlooked, have substantial implications for enhancing energy harvesting efficiency.

In this paper, we propose a new strategy for simultaneously optimizing ship route and speed using a hierarchical mapping method that takes into account different carbon tax models. Compared with the traditional route planning methods, the main novelty of the proposed method is to separate the decision-making and weather information layers, which allows us to directly obtain the ship route and speed decision plan that conform to the ship's maneuverability and crew habits. The key algorithmic contribution is a bi-layer mapping intelligentoptimizationalgorithm, which establishes the mapping relationship between the upper and lower layers and a synchronous iterative update strategy. Case studies show that the designed method has significant advantages in both conventional and complex terrain ocean scenarios. Moreover, the sensitivity analysis showed that the proposed method can help shipping companies to better cope with rising fuel prices and various ship carbon tax models.

Wireless local area networks (WLANs) bring great convenience for people, however, they also consume a huge amount of energy, for most access points (APs) typically operate at the maximum transmit (TX) power all day. In this connection, this paper aims to minimize the overall TX power of all APs by jointly optimizing the location, state and TX power of each AP on the premise of full effective coverage. This paper considers not only three-dimensional scenarios with various obstacles, but also the fluctuation of user density in different time periods and different coverage intensity requirements. To solve the above problem, this paper proposes an improved elite golden jackal optimization (GJO) algorithm, named IEGJO, by introducing the global search strategy and elite evolution strategy into GJO. The performance of IEGJO was extensively evaluated and compared with eight state-of-the-art heuristic algorithms on 20 popular benchmark functions. The experimental results indicate that the IEGJO algorithm outperforms other algorithms in terms of comprehensive performance and ranks first. Then, this paper develops optimal AP configurations method based on IEGJO and applies it to optimize a WLAN in a campus building. The simulation results show that the total TX power of the system is reduced by 81.33%, while still guaranteeing the full effective coverage requirements. The source code is available on https://***/iNet-WZU/IEGJO.

Thermal error of a machine tool is one of the main reasons affecting the machining accuracy. Heat production and heat transfer of a machine tool are too complicated to predict the generated thermal error accurately. According to the nonlinear and time-varying characteristics of thermal error, the back propagation (BP) neural network is perfectly suitable for thermal error modeling, which has been extensively used to map the nonlinear relationship. However, traditional BP neural network usually has poor prediction performance under different operating conditions. Therefore, a new swarm intelligent optimization algorithm, bat algorithm (BA), is introduced to optimize BP neural network and improve its performance. The focus of this paper is the application of the combined algorithm (bat algorithm-based back propagation neural network) to solve the problem of thermal error modeling. Thermal positioning error experiments were conducted on a three-axis experiment bench. The experimental results show that thermal positioning error model built by BA-BP neural network is more stable and has high prediction accuracy and strong robustness, which can provide a candidate method for thermal error modeling.

A self-adaptive whale optimizationalgorithm integrating four improvement strategies is proposed to overcome the shortcomings of the basic whale optimizationalgorithm that are easy to fall into local optima, slow convergence speed and low calculation accuracy. Firstly, the chaotic logistics mapping method is used to initialize the population randomly to increase the diversity of the population and the uniformity of individual distribution. Secondly, the convergence factor is non-linearized and dynamically adjusted to balance the global search and local search performance of the algorithm. Thirdly, the dynamic adjustment of the search step length is realized by setting different adaptive inertia weights according to stages. Finally, crossover and mutation operations are performed on the random dimensions of the population individuals to avoid the algorithm from falling into the local optimum. The results of comparative experiments with three related algorithms on six benchmark functions show that the proposed algorithm is superior to the others in terms of global search capability, convergence speed and calculation accuracy.

In this paper, we present a new fruit fly optimizationalgorithm with the adaptive step for solving unconstrained optimization problems, which is able to avoid the slow convergence and the tendency to fall into local optimum of the standard fruit fly optimizationalgorithm. By using the information of the iteration number and the maximum iteration number, the proposed algorithm uses the floor function to ensure that the fruit fly swarms adopt the large step search during the olfactory search stage which improves the search speed;in the visual search stage, the small step is used to effectively avoid local optimum. Finally, using commonly used benchmark testing functions, the proposed algorithm is compared with the standard fruit fly optimizationalgorithm with some fixed steps. The simulation experiment results show that the proposed algorithm can quickly approach the optimal solution in the olfactory search stage and accurately search in the visual search stage, demonstrating more effective performance.

Parameter estimation is important in the study of control and synchronization of fractional-order nonlinear systems (FONSs). This paper proposes an improved Sparrow Search algorithm (ISSA) for the parameter estimation problem of FONSs. The algorithm improves the population initialization, position update method of discoverers and warning sparrows based on Sparrow Search algorithm (SSA), and the parameter estimation simulation experiment for fractional-order financial nonlinear system and fractional-order L nonlinear system is conducted to demonstrate this method. The experimental results show that the proposed ISSA is superior to the SSA, Particle swarmoptimization (PSO), Whale optimizationalgorithm (WOA) and Harris Hawks optimization (HHO) in terms of parameter optimization accuracy and convergence speed, which validates the advantages of the ISSA.
