The most dangerous landslide disasters always cause serious economic losses and human deaths. The contribution of this work is to present an integrated landslide modelling framework, in which an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is combined with the two optimization algorithms of whale optimization algorithm (WOA) and grey wolf optimizer (GWO) at Anyuan County, China. It means that WOA and GWO are used as two meta-heuristic algorithms to improve the prediction performance of the ANFIS-based methods. In addition, the step-wise weight assessment ratio analysis (SWARA) method is used to obtain the initial weight of each class of landslide influencing factors. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed framework, 315 landslide events in history were selected for our experiments and were randomly divided into the training and verification sets. To perform landslide susceptibility mapping, fifteen geological, hydrological, geomorphological, land cover, and other factors are considered for the modelling construction. The landslide susceptibility maps by SWARA, SWARA-ANFIS, SWARA-ANFIS-PSO, SWARA-ANFIS-WOA, and SWARA-ANFIS-GWO models are assessed using the measures of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and root-mean-square error (RMSE). The experiments demonstrated that the obtained results of modelling process from the SWARA to the SAWRA-ANFIS-GWO model were more accurate and that the proposed methods have satisfactory prediction ability. Specifically, prediction accuracy by area under the curve (AUC) of SWARA, SWARA-ANFIS, SWARA-ANFIS-PSO, SWARA-ANFIS-GWO, and SWARA-ANFIS-WOA models were 0.831, 0.831, 0.850, 0.856, and 0.869, respectively. Due to adaptability and usability, the proposed prediction methods can be applied to other areas for landslide management and mitigation as well as prevention throughout the world.

This article presents a novel hybrid algorithm based on the grey-wolf optimizer and whale optimization algorithm, referred here as grey-wolf optimizer–whale optimization algorithm, for the dynamic parametric modelling of a four degree-of-freedom master–slave robot manipulator system. The first part of this work consists of testing the feasibility of the grey-wolf optimizer–whale optimization algorithm by comparing its performance with a grey-wolf optimizer, whale optimization algorithm and particle swarm optimization using 10 benchmark functions. The grey-wolf optimizer–whale optimization algorithm is then used for the model identification of an experimental master–slave robot manipulator system using the autoregressive moving average with exogenous inputs model structure. Obtained results demonstrate that the hybrid algorithm is effective and can be a suitable substitute to solve the parameter identification problem of robot models.

This paper focuses on the optimization and operation of the renewable energy power sources for electrification of isolated rural city in Algeria desert. For this purpose, a system composed by photovoltaic (PV), wind turbine (WT), diesel generator (DG), and battery bank (BB) as well as for storing the energy in the electrical form to meet the load. In the present paper we are interested in evolutionary algorithms for solving optimization problem of hybrid renewable energy system. A new meta-heuristic algorithm namely whale optimization algorithm (WOA) is used to solve optimization problem of cost of energy (COE) and total net present cost (TNPC) including reliability evaluation by using basic probabilistic concept in order to find Loss of Power Supply Probability (LPSP). The WOA mimics the social behavior of humpback whales. This algorithm is inspired by the bubble-net hunting strategy. Three recent algorithms, particle swarm optimization (PSO), grey wolf optimizer (GWO), and modified grey wolf optimizer (M-GWO) are also implemented in this work. For examining the accuracy, stability, and robustness of proposed optimization technique two case studies have been tested. The results of simulations and comparison with other methods exhibit high accuracy and validity of the proposed whale optimization algorithm to solve optimization problem of hybrid renewable energy system.

Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) is a relatively novel algorithm in the field of meta-heuristic algorithms. WOA can reveal an efficient performance compared with other well-established optimization algorithms, but there is still a problem of premature convergence and easy to fall into local optimal in complex multimodal functions, so this paper presents an improved WOA, and proposes the random hopping update strategy and random control parameter strategy to improve the exploration and exploitation ability of WOA. In this paper, 24 well-known benchmark functions are used to test the algorithm, including 10 unimodal functions and 14 multimodal functions. The experimental results show that the convergence accuracy of the proposed algorithm is better than that of the original algorithm on 21 functions, and better than that of the other 5 algorithms on 23 functions.


This paper provides a new approach for solving the problem of network reconfiguration in the presence of Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA). It is aimed at reducing actual power loss and enlightening the voltage profile in the supply system. The voltage and branch current capacity constraints have been included in the objective function evaluation. The method has been evaluated at three separate heuristic algorithms on 33-bus radial distribution systems to demonstrate the performance and effectiveness of the proposed method. In this paper the comparison of performance of two latest optimization techniques such as Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) with classic optimization techniques such as Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The new optimization technique produces better result compare to other two optimization logarithm..

AbstractThis paper presents the solution to mitigate the total harmonic distortion (THD) in multilevel inverters (MLIs) using novel improved whale optimization algorithm (IWOA). The IWOA falls under the category of swarm-based nature inspired optimization algorithms. It uses a novel diffusion process using a random walk technique and utilizes an additional ranking system to estimate the optimum solution to minimize THD. Moreover, THD minimization is further accomplished through nine various meta-heuristic algorithms for investigation and comparative analysis. The selected algorithms along with the proposed IWOA are rigorously tested on single phase 5 and 7 level cascaded H-Bridge MLIs for various performance parameters such as consistency, computational efficiency and speed of convergence. It is found that the proposed algorithm outperforms the nine algorithms and is efficient for THD minimization for modulation index (MI) in the range of 0–1. The results are analyzed and reported after thorough verification using MATLAB simulation.

In this study, a fractional-order sliding mode backstepping control method was proposed, which involved the use of a fractional-order command filter, an interval type-2 fuzzy logic system approximation method, and a grey wolf and weighted whale optimization algorithm for multi-input multi-output nonlinear dynamic systems. For designing the stabilizing controls of the backstepping control, a novel fractional-order sliding mode surface was suggested. Further, the transformed errors that occurred during the recursive design steps were easily compensated by the controllers constructed using a new fractional-order command filter. Thus, the differentiation issue of the virtual control in the conventional backstepping control design could be bypassed with a simpler controller structure. Subsequently, the unknown plant dynamics were approximated by an interval type-2 fuzzy logic system. The uncertainties, such as the approximation error and the external disturbance, were compensated by the fractional-order sliding mode control that was added in the backstepping controller. Furthermore, the controller parameters and the fuzzy logic system were optimized via a grey wolf and weighted whale optimization algorithm to obtain a faster tuning process and an improved control performance. Simulation results demonstrated that the fractional-order sliding mode backstepping control scheme provides enhanced control performance over the conventional backstepping control system. Thus, in this paper, a fractional-order sliding mode surface and fractional-order backstepping control are studied, which provide more rapid convergence and enhanced robustness. Furthermore, a hybrid grey wolf and weighted whale optimization algorithm are proposed to provide an improved learning performance than those of conventional grey wolf optimization and weighted whale optimization methods.
