The localization strategy is broadly utilized in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) to detect the present location of the sensor nodes. A WSN comprises of multiple sensor nodes, which makes the employment of GPS on each sensor node costly, and GPS does not give accurate localization outcomes in an indoor environment. The process of configuring location reference on each sensor node manually is also not feasible in the case of a large dense network. Hence, this proposal plans to develop an intelligent model for developing localization pattern in WSN with a group of anchor nodes, rest nodes, and target nodes. The initial step of the proposed node localization model is the selection of the optimal location of anchor nodes towards the target nodes using the hybrid optimization algorithm by concerning the constraints like the distance between the nodes. The second step is to optimally determine the location of the rest node by reference to the anchor nodes using the same hybrid optimization algorithm. Here, the weight has to be determined for each anchor sensor node based on its Received Signal Strength (RSS), and RSS threshold value with the assistance of Neural Network. The hybrid optimization algorithms check the direction to where the concerned node has to be moved by merging the beneficial concepts of two renowned optimization algorithms named as Rider Optimization Algorithm (ROA), and Chicken Swarm Optimization Algorithm (CSO) to solve the localization problem in WSN. The newly developed hybrid algorithm is termed as Rooster Updated Attacker-based ROA (RUA-ROA). Finally, the comparative evaluation indicates a significant improvement in the proposed localization model by evaluating the convergence and statistical analysis.

Consuming energy at the maximal level is a major concern in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Many researchers focus on reducing and preserving the energy. The duration of active network of WSNs is affected by energy consumption of sensor nodes. For typical applications such as structure monitoring, border surveillance, integrated into the external surface of a pipeline, and clambered along the sustaining structure of a bridge, sensor node energy efficiency is an important issue. The paper proposed an energy-efficient multi-hop routing protocol using hybrid optimization algorithm (E2MR-HOA) for WSNs. The proposed routing protocol consists of two algorithms, i.e., hybrid optimization algorithm. We present modified chemical reaction optimization (MCRO) algorithm to form clusters and select cluster head (CH) among the cluster members. Then the modified bacterial forging search (MBFS) algorithm is used to compute reliable route between source to destination. The proposed E2MR-HOA protocol is evaluated using NS2 simulations. The simulation result shows that the proposed routing protocol provides significant energy efficiency with network lifetime over the existing routing protocols.

Aiming at the problem of easy-to-fall-into local convergence for automatic train operation (ATO) velocity ideal trajectory profile optimization algorithms, an improved multi-objective hybrid optimization algorithm using a comprehensive learning strategy (ICLHOA) is proposed. Firstly, an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm which adopts multiple particle optimization models is proposed, to avoid the destruction of population diversity caused by single optimization model. Secondly, to avoid the problem of random and blind searching in iterative computation process, the chaotic mapping and the reverse learning mechanism are introduced into the improved whale optimization algorithm. Thirdly, the improved archive mechanism is used to store the non-dominated solutions in the optimization process, and fusion distance is used to maintain the diversity of elite set. Fourthly, a dual-population evolutionary mechanism using archive as an information communication medium is designed to enhance the global convergence improvement of hybrid optimization algorithms. Finally, the optimization results on the benchmark functions show that the ICLHOA can significantly outperform other algorithms for contrast. Furthermore, the ATO Matlab/simulation and hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS) results show that the ICLHOA has a better optimization effect than that of the traditional optimization algorithms and improved algorithms.
