文摘Wind power is one of the sustainable ways to generate renewable energy.In recent years,some countries have set renewables to meet future energy needs,with the primary goal of reducing emissions and promoting sustainable growth,primarily the use of wind and solar power.To achieve the prediction of wind power generation,several deep and machine learning models are constructed in this article as base models.These regression models are Deep neural network(DNN),k-nearest neighbor(KNN)regressor,long short-term memory(LSTM),averaging model,random forest(RF)regressor,bagging regressor,and gradient boosting(GB)regressor.In addition,data cleaning and data preprocessing were performed to the data.The dataset used in this study includes 4 features and 50530 instances.To accurately predict the wind power values,we propose in this paper a new optimization technique based on stochastic fractal search and particle swarm optimization(SFSPSO)to optimize the parameters of LSTM network.Five evaluation criteria were utilized to estimate the efficiency of the regression models,namely,mean absolute error(MAE),Nash Sutcliffe Efficiency(NSE),mean square error(MSE),coefficient of determination(R2),root mean squared error(RMSE).The experimental results illustrated that the proposed optimization of LSTM using SFS-PSO model achieved the best results with R2 equals 99.99%in predicting the wind power values.

文摘The ability to detect and localize the human eye is critical for use in security applications and human identification and verification systems.This is because eye recognition algorithms have multiple challenges,such as multi-pose variations,ocular parts,and illumination.Moreover,the modern security applica-tions fail to detect facial expressions from eye images.In this paper,a Speeded-Up Roust Feature(SURF)Algorithm was utilized to localize the face images of the enrolled subjects.We highlighted on eye and pupil parts to be detected based on SURF,Hough Circle Transform(HCT),and Local Binary Pattern(LBP).Afterward,Deep Belief Neural Networks(DBNN)were used to classify the input features results from the SURF algorithm.We further determined the correctly and wrongly classified subjects using a confusion matrix with two class labels to classify people whose eye images are correctly detected.We apply Stochastic Gradient Descent(SGD)optimizer to address the overfitting problem,and the hyper-parameters arefine-tuned based on the applied DBNN.The accuracy of the proposed system is determined based on SURF,LBP,and DBNN classifier achieved 95.54%for the ORL dataset,94.07%for the BioID,and 96.20%for the CASIA-V5 dataset.The proposed approach is more reliable and more advanced when compared with state-of-the-art algorithms.

文摘The Internet of Things(IoT)is a modern approach that enables connection with a wide variety of devices remotely.Due to the resource constraints and open nature of IoT nodes,the routing protocol for low power and lossy(RPL)networks may be vulnerable to several routing attacks.That’s why a network intrusion detection system(NIDS)is needed to guard against routing assaults on RPL-based IoT networks.The imbalance between the false and valid attacks in the training set degrades the performance of machine learning employed to detect network attacks.Therefore,we propose in this paper a novel approach to balance the dataset classes based on metaheuristic optimization applied to locality-sensitive hashing and synthetic minority oversampling technique(LSH-SMOTE).The proposed optimization approach is based on a new hybrid between the grey wolf and dipper throated optimization algorithms.To prove the effectiveness of the proposed approach,a set of experiments were conducted to evaluate the performance of NIDS for three cases,namely,detection without dataset balancing,detection with SMOTE balancing,and detection with the proposed optimized LSHSOMTE balancing.Experimental results showed that the proposed approach outperforms the other approaches and could boost the detection accuracy.In addition,a statistical analysis is performed to study the significance and stability of the proposed approach.The conducted experiments include seven different types of attack cases in the RPL-NIDS17 dataset.Based on the 2696 CMC,2023,vol.74,no.2 proposed approach,the achieved accuracy is(98.1%),sensitivity is(97.8%),and specificity is(98.8%).
