Habitat suitability models are useful to understand species distribution and to guide management and conservation strategies. The grey wolf (Canis lupus) has been extirpated from most of its historic range in Pakistan primarily due to its impact on livestock and livelihoods. We used non-invasive survey data from camera traps and genetic sampling to develop a habitat suitability model for C. lup...

This study investigates a hybrid algorithm between Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) and Cuckoo Search (CS) algorithms to find the parameters of induction motors. The motor have been estimated by using data supplied manufacturer. problem for parameter estimation is formulated as an optimization problem. Then, solved GWO based on CS parameters. Numerical results show that both are capable solving fin...

The production planning is an important problem in most of manufacturing systems in practice. Unlike many researches existing in literature, this problem encounters with great uncertainties in parameters and input data. In this paper, a single machine capacitated production planning problem is considered and a linear programming formulation is presented. The production costs are assumed to be u...

A hybrid proportional double derivative and linear quadratic regulator (PD2-LQR) controller is designed for altitude (z) attitude (roll, pitch, yaw) control of a quadrotor vehicle. The derivation mathematical model the formulated based on Newton–Euler approach. An appropriate controller’s parameter must be obtained to obtain superior performance. Therefore, we exploit advantages nature-inspired...

This article proposes a novel hybrid metaheuristic technique based on nonsingular terminal sliding mode controller, time delay estimation method, an extended grey wolf optimization algorithm and adaptive super twisting control law. The fast convergence is assured by controller owing to its inherent nonlinear property no prior knowledge of the robot dynamics required due estimation. proposed det...
