In this paper, the optimal weighted combination model and fractional grey model are constructed. The coefficients of the optimal weighted combination model are determined by minimizing the sum of squares of resists of each model. On the other hand, the optimal conformable fractional order and dynamic background value coefficient are determined by the quantum inspired evolutionary algorithm (QIEA). Taking the resident population from 2008 to 2018 as the research object, the optimal weighted combination model and fractional grey model were used to study the estimated and predicted values. The results are compared and analyzed. The results show that the fractional grey model is better than the optimal weighted combination model in the estimation of the values. The optimal weighted combination model is better than the fractional grey model in predicting. Meanwhile, the fractional grey model is found to be very suitable for the data values that are large, and the changes between the data are relatively small. The research results expand the application of the fractional grey model and have important implications for the policy implementation activities of Huizhou government according to the population growth trend in Huizhou.

In this paper, an artificial neural network (ANN)-based dynamic weighted combination model trained by novel particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed for software reliability prediction. Different software reliability growth models (SRGMs) are merged based on the weights derived by the learning algorithm of the proposed ANN. To avoid trapping in local minima during training of the ANN, we propose a neighborhood-based adaptive PSO (NAPSO) algorithm for learning of the proposed ANN in order to find global optimal weights. We conduct the experiments on real software failure data sets for validation of the proposed dynamic weighted combination model (PDWCM). Fitting performance and predictability of the proposed PSO-based neural network are compared with the conventional PSO-based neural network (CPSO) and existing ANN-based software reliability models. We also compare the performance of the proposed PSO algorithm with the CPSO algorithm through learning of the proposed ANN. Empirical results indicate that the proposed PSO and CPSO-based neural network present fairly accurate fitting and prediction capability than the other existing ANN-based software reliability models. Moreover, the proposed PSO-based neural network is most promising for the purpose of software fault prediction since it shows comparatively better fitting and prediction performance results than the other models.
