Recently the development of optimization algorithm is rapidly increased. Among several optimization algorithms, Harmony Search(HS) has been recently proposed for solving engineering optimization problems. The HS has some weaknesses such as parameters selection and falling in local optima. Many variants proposed to solve these problems. This paper presents successful hybrid algorithms with high performance to solve the pressure vessel design simulation. The hybrid algorithms consist of wellknown variants of HS and an opposition-based learning technique. The hybrid algorithm improved the HS exploration and avoiding falling in local optima, which lead the algorithm to provide significant results.

Cervical cancer is caused by the growth of abnormal cells in the cervix’s lining. Human papillomavirus (HPV), a sexually transmitted infection, plays a role in most cervical cancers. Therefore, cervical cancer can be avoided by having regular screenings and being vaccinated against HPV infection. The term pap-smear refers to human cell samples stained using the Papanicolaou method. The Papanicolaou method is used to detect precancerous cell changes before they become invasive cancer. The smear cell image is composed of a nucleus and cytoplasm. Cancer prevalence is determined by the shape and structure of the nucleus. Therefore, the segmentation of the nucleus is an essential step in detecting cancer. However, overlapping, poor contrast, uneven staining, and other factors make cervical nucleus segmentation difficult. This paper proposes a new segmentation method for the cervical nucleus using digital image processing. Our proposed method used a median filter to remove noise and a non-linear contrast stretching to enhance the Pap smear images. Then, we used Bradley thresholding for the segmented cervical nucleus. The main impact of this paper will assist doctors in diagnosing cervical cancer based on Pap smear images and increase the accuracy percentages compared to the conventional method.
The growing amount of data and advances in data science have created a need for a new kind of cloud platform that provides users with flexibility, strong security, and the ability to couple with supercomputers and edg...
