Management of available water resources needs good planning and to do this, prognostication hydrological parameters (parameters the cycle such as rainfall, runoff, solar radiation, groundwater, evaporation/evapotranspiration) [...]

Recent advancements in computer science include some optimization models that have been developed and used real applications. Some metaheuristic search/optimization algorithms tested to obtain optimal solutions speed controller applications self-driving cars. are based on social behaviour, resulting several search models, functions, parameters, thus algorithm-specific strengths weaknesses. The ...

In real-world scenarios, identifying the optimal number of clusters in a dataset is difficult task due to insufficient knowledge. Therefore, indispensability sophisticated automatic clustering algorithms for this purpose has been contemplated by some researchers. Several assisted quantum-inspired metaheuristics have developed recent years. However, literature lacks definitive documentation stat...

We call this problem of designing the appropriate metaheuristic problem for a combinatorial (optimization) problem, the metaheuristic tuning problem [1, 3, 7]. Anecdotal evidence suggests that tuning takes a major effort, i.e. [1] states that 90% of the design and testing time can be spent fine-tuning the algorithm. Although it can be easy to come up with a variety of metaheuristics, tuning the...

Fuzzy clustering is a famous unsupervised learning method used to collecting similar data elements within cluster according to some similarity measurement. But, clustering algorithms suffer from some drawbacks. Among the main weakness including, selecting the initial cluster centres and the appropriate clusters number is normally unknown. These weaknesses are considered the most challenging tas...

Metaheuristics is basically a higher level procedure, which generates a simpler procedure to solve an optimization problem. Optimization is the process of adjusting the inputs to or characteristics of a device, mathematical process, or experiment to find the minimum or maximum output or result. The input consists of variables; the process or function is known as the cost function, objective fun...
