In this modern era a great deal of metamorphism is observed around us which eventuate due to some minute modifications and innovations in the area of Science and Technology. This paper deals with the application of a meta heuristic optimization algorithm namely the Cuckoo Search Algorithm in the design of an optimized planar antenna array which ensures high gain ,directivity, suppression of sid...

The Cuckoo search algorithm is a recent addition to metaheuristic techniques. It simulates the breeding behaviour of certain cuckoo species into a numerical optimization technique. Cuckoo birds lay their eggs in the nests of other host birds so that their chicks when hatched can be nurtured by the host birds. The optimum design algorithm presented for moment resisting steel frames is based on t...

This paper presents the application of a One Rank Cuckoo Search Algorithm (ORCSA) to bi-objective load dispatch (BOLD) problem where two objectives including fuel and emission are taken into consideration. ORCSA is an improvement of basic Cuckoo search algorithm (BCSA) where several modifications are carried out so as to improve the performance of the BCSA. The performance of the proposed ORCSA...

Predicting student academic performance with a high accuracy facilitates admission decisions and enhances educational services at educational institutions. This raises the need to propose a model that predicts student performance, based on the results of standardized exams, including university entrance exams, high school graduation exams, and other influential factors. In this study, an approa...
