This paper attempts to conceptualize a potent methodology by combining the African vultures optimization algorithm (AVOA) with a multi-orthogonal-oppositional strategy (M2OS), named AVO-M2OS, to address the nonconvexity and multidimensional nature of the combined heat and power economic dispatch (CHPED) problem under both crisp and uncertainty aspects. The AVO-M2OS uses the M2OS to simultaneously explore the search region, improving solutions’ diversity as well as solution quality. Therefore, AVO-M2OS can perform deeper exploration and exploitation features and thus mitigate the trapping at local optima, especially when tackling the more complicated nature of the CHPED problem. A three-stage analysis is conducted to assess the effectiveness of the proposed AVO-M2OS algorithm. During the first stage, the algorithm’s performance is evaluated on benchmark problems such as CEC 2005 and CEC 2019, employing statistical verifications and convergence characteristics. In the second stage, the significance of the results is evaluated using the nonparametric Friedman test to demonstrate that the results did not occur by chance. The results indicate that the AVO-M2OS algorithm outperforms the best existing algorithm (AVOA) by an average rank of the Friedman test exceeding 26% for the CEC 2005 suite while outperforming the gray wolf optimization (GWO) by 60% for the CEC 2019 suite. Moreover, the AVO-M2OS demonstrates exceptional performance compared to existing state-of-the-art algorithms, surpassing the best algorithm available by an average rank of the Friedman test that exceeds 41%. Finally, the AVO-M2OS’s applicability is achieved by minimizing the operational costs by finding the optimal power and heat generation scheduling for the CHPED problem. The recorded results realize that the AVO-M2OS algorithm offers accurate performance compared to competing optimizers, where it saves the operational cost of the 48-unit system by 24% on the original AVO variant. Furthermore, the u

Addressing the global challenge of ensuring a consistent and abundant supply of fresh fruit, particularly in the context of fruit crops, is hindered by the prevalence of plant diseases. These diseases directly impact the quality of fruits, leading to a decline in overall agricultural production. Mango leaf diseases pose significant threats to global mango production, necessitating accurate and efficient classification techniques for timely disease management. Our study focuses on introducing MangoLeafXNet, a customized Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture specifically tailored for the classification of mango leaf diseases, along with a healthy class. Our proposed model comprises six layers optimized to capture intricate disease patterns, demonstrating superior performance compared with prevalent pre-trained models. The model is trained and evaluated on three publicly available datasets: MangoLeafBD (4000 images across 8 classes), MangoPest (16 pest classes including healthy leaves), and MLDID (3000 high-resolution images across 5 classes). Our model demonstrated exceptional classification performance, attaining 99.8% accuracy, 99.62% recall, 99.5% precision, and an F1-score of 99.56%. Further validation on the MangoPest dataset and the Mango Leaf Disease Identification Dataset (MLDID) resulted in accuracies of 96.31% and 96.33%, respectively, confirming the robustness and adaptability of MangoLeafXNet across different datasets. Additionally, we incorporate Explainable AI techniques, including GRAD-CAM, Saliency Map, and LIME to enhance the interpretability of our model. We deployed Gradio web interface to create an interactive interface that allows users to upload images of mango leaves and get real-time classification and validation results along with confidence scores. This contribution not only advances the state-of-the-art in mango leaf disease classification but also offers promising prospects for real-time disease diagnosis and precision agriculture
