Artificial Hummingbird Optimizer as a Novel Adaptive Algorithm for Identifying Optimal Coefficients of Digital Iir Filtering Systems
(Taylor & Francis inc, 2023) Ekinci, Serdar; Izci, Davut; Kayri, Murat
This paper introduces the artificial hummingbird algorithm (AHA) as a novel and efficient algorithm for designing digital infinite impulse response (IIR) filtering systems. IIR filters are commonly used in various applications, and their design often involves complex error surfaces and coefficients. The AHA aims to address these challenges by optimizing the IIR model using mean squared error (MSE) cost function. Four benchmark examples are considered for evaluation by comparing both the same and reduced order cases of the IIR model. The results are compared against recent and efficient algorithms named prairie dog optimization, whale optimization algorithm, and artificial bee colony algorithm. The evaluation includes an analysis of the obtained coefficients, statistical measures, and convergence profiles. The findings show that the AHA outperforms the competing algorithms, achieving more accurate models and providing better statistical performance. Additionally, the AHA consistently converges to the lowest MSE values for each case. Further assessments are conducted using various examples from the literature, which validate the AHA's superior ability in digital IIR filtering design. The algorithm demonstrates more accurate identification and achieves lower MSE values compared to alternative methods which highlight the promising potential of the AHA for efficient and precise digital IIR filtering system design.
Comparison of Swarm-Based Metaheuristic and Gradient Descent-Based Algorithms in Artif Icial Neural Network Training
(Ediciones Univ Salamanca, 2023) Eker, Erdal; Kayri, Murat; Ekinci, Serdar; Izci, Davut
This paper aims to compare the gradient descent-based algorithms under classical training model and swarm-based metaheuristic algorithms in feed forward backpropagation artificial neural network training. Batch weight and bias rule, Bayesian regularization, cyclical weight and bias rule and Levenberg-Marquardt algorithms are used as the classical gradient descentbased algorithms. In terms of the swarm-based metaheuristic algorithms, hunger games search, gray wolf optimizer, Archimedes optimization, and the Aquila optimizer are adopted. The Iris data set is used in this paper for the training. Mean square error, mean absolute error and determination coefficient are used as statistical measurement techniques to determine the effect of the network architecture and the adopted training algorithm. The metaheuristic algorithms are shown to have superior capability over the gradient descent-based algorithms in terms of artificial neural network training. In addition to their success in error rates, the classification capabilities of the metaheuristic algorithms are also observed to be in the range of 94%-97%. The hunger games search algorithm is also observed for its specific advantages amongst the metaheuristic algorithms as it maintains good performance in terms of classification ability and other statistical measurements.
An Effective Controller Design Approach for Magnetic Levitation System Using Novel Improved Manta Ray Foraging Optimization
(Springer Heidelberg, 2022) Ekinci, Serdar; Izci, Davut; Kayri, Murat
This paper demonstrates the development of a novel metaheuristic algorithm which has an enhanced diversification and intensification features and aims to construct an efficient mechanism via the developed algorithm to control a magnetic object suspension. Manta ray foraging optimization (MRFO) algorithm together with generalized opposition-based learning (GOBL) technique and Nelder-Mead (NM) simplex search method is used to define the general frame of the developed algorithm. The developed novel algorithm (Ob-MRFONM) employs the NM method for better intensification whereas integrates the GOBL technique for better diversification. The constructed Ob-MRFONM algorithm is confirmed to have enhanced capabilities via evaluations against well-known unimodal and multimodal benchmark functions. The developed algorithm is also utilized to reach optimum values of a real PID plus second-order derivative (PIDD2) controller employed in a magnetic object suspension system to demonstrate the capability of the Ob-MRFONM algorithm for such a complex real-world engineering problem. It is worth noting that this paper is the first report in the literature that demonstrates the application of a real PIDD2 controller in a magnetic object suspension system. To reach better capability, a new objective function is used for minimization. Then, the proposed approach is comparatively evaluated in terms of statistical and nonparametric statistical analysis, convergence, transient response, disturbance rejection, controller effort and effects of the noise signal. The demonstrated results also confirm the highly competitive capability of the proposed algorithm for the complex magnetic object suspension system. The nonlinear model of the system is also used in this study in order to validate the linearized model.
Improved Manta Ray Foraging Optimization Using Opposition-Based Learning for Optimization Problems
(Ieee, 2020) Izci, Davut; Ekinci, Serdar; Eker, Erdal; Kayri, Murat
Manta ray foraging optimization (MRFO) algorithm is a bio-inspired meta-heuristic algorithm. It has been proposed as an alternative optimization approach for real-world engineering problems. However, MRFO is not good at fine-tuning of solutions around optima and suffers from slow convergence speed because of its stochastic nature. It needs to be improved due to latter issues. Therefore, in this study, opposition-based learning (OBL) technique was used together with MRFO in order to obtain an effective structure for optimization problems. The proposed structure has been named as opposition-based Manta ray foraging optimization (OBL-MRFO). In the proposed algorithm, the advantage of OBL in terms of considering the opposite solutions was used to have an algorithm with better performance. The proposed algorithm has been tested on four different benchmark functions such as Sphere, Rosenbrock, Schwefel and Ackley. Statistical analyses were performed through comparing the performance of OBL-MRFO with the other algorithms such as salp swarm algorithm, atom search optimization and original MRFO. The results showed that the proposed algorithm is more effective and has better performance than other algorithms.

(Springer Heidelberg, 2021) Eker, Erdal; Kayri, Murat; Ekinci, Serdar; Izci, Davut
An improved version of atom search optimization (ASO) algorithm is proposed in this paper. The search capability of ASO was improved by using simulated annealing (SA) algorithm as an embedded part of it. The proposed hybrid algorithm was named as hASO-SA and used for optimizing nonlinear and linearized problems such as training multilayer perceptron (MLP) and proportional-integral-derivative controller design for DC motor speed regulation as well as testing benchmark functions of unimodal, multimodal, hybrid and composition types. The obtained results on classical and CEC2014 benchmark functions were compared with other metaheuristic algorithms, including two other SA-based hybrid versions, which showed the greater capability of the proposed approach. In addition, nonparametric statistical test was performed for further verification of the superior performance of hASO-SA. In terms of MLP training, several datasets were used and the obtained results were compared with respective competitive algorithms. The results clearly indicated the performance of the proposed algorithm to be better. For the case of controller design, the performance evaluation was performed by comparing it with the recent studies adopting the same controller parameters and limits as well as objective function. The transient, frequency and robustness analysis demonstrated the superior ability of the proposed approach. In brief, the comparative analyses indicated the proposed algorithm to be successful for optimization problems with different nature.

(Aves, 2021) Izci, Davut; Ekinci, Serdar; Kayri, Murat; Eker, Erdal
The development of a novel enhanced metaheuristic algorithm is considered in this paper. Such a structure was achieved through enhancement of the arithmetic optimization algorithm by employing the opposition-based learning mechanism together with the Nelder-Mead simplex search method. The developed algorithm (ObAOANM) adopts the opposition-based learning scheme to enhance the algorithm in terms explorative behavior, and the Nelder-Mead method in terms of exploitative behavior. The developed ObAOANM was firstly tested against well-known unimodal and multimodal benchmark functions through comparisons with the original arithmetic optimization algorithm, as it was previously shown to be superior to other efficient algorithms. The benchmark functions and related statistical results demonstrated greater capability of the ObAOANM algorithm. Then, the ObAOANM algorithm was utilized to achieve an optimum design of a proportional-integral-derivative controller adopted in an automobile cruise control system. The performance of the ObAOANM algorithm was compared with the arithmetic optimization algorithm algorithm through statistical, transient response, frequency response, and disturbance rejection analyses, which have shown better capability of the enhanced ObAOANM algorithm. Furthermore, the capability of the ObAOANM based proportional-integral-derivative-controlled automobile cruise control system was compared with other available approaches in the literature by performing time domain analysis, which also confirmed the superior capability of the proposed approach for such a task.
A Novel Improved Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm for Optimal Design of Pid Controlled and Bode's Ideal Transfer Function Based Automobile Cruise Control System
(Springer Heidelberg, 2022) Izci, Davut; Ekinci, Serdar; Kayri, Murat; Eker, Erdal
This paper considers the development of a novel hybrid metaheuristic algorithm which is proposed to achieve an optimum design for automobile cruise control (ACC) system by using a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller based on Bode's ideal transfer function. The developed algorithm (AOA-NM) adopts one of the recently published metaheuristic algorithms named the arithmetic optimization algorithm (AOA) to perform explorative task whereas another well-known local search method known as Nelder-Mead (NM) simplex search to perform exploitative task. The developed hybrid algorithm was initially tested on well-known benchmark functions by comparing the results with only its original version since AOA has already been shown to be better than other state-of-the-art algorithms. The statistical results obtained from benchmark functions have demonstrated better capability of AOA-NM. Furthermore, a PID controller based on Bode's ideal transfer function was adopted to regulate an ACC system optimally. Statistical, convergence rate, time domain and frequency domain analyses were performed by comparing the performance of AOA-NM with AOA. The respective analyses have shown better capability of the proposed hybrid algorithm. Moreover, the capability of the proposed AOA-NM based PID control scheme was compared with other available approaches in the literature by using time domain analysis. The latter case has also confirmed enhanced capability of the proposed approach for regulating an ACC system which further verified the ability of the proposed AOA-NM algorithm. Lastly, other recently reported and effective metaheuristic algorithms were also used to assess the performance of the proposed approach. The obtained comparative results further confirmed the AOA-NM to be a greater tool to achieve more successful results for ACC system.

(Aves, 2022) Kayri, Murat; Ipek, Cengiz; Izci, Davut; Eker, Erdal
This paper proposes a novel sine-cosine and Nelder-Mead (SCANM) algorithm which hybridizes the sine-cosine algorithm (SCA) and Nelder-Mead (NM) local search method. The original version of SCA is prone to early convergence at the local minimum. The purpose of the SCANM algorithm is to overcome this issue. Thus, it aims to overcome this issue with the employment of the NM method. The SCANM algorithm was firstly compared with the SCA algorithm through 23 well-known test functions. The statistical assessment confirmed the better performance of the proposed algorithm. The comparative convergence profiles further demonstrated the significant performance improvement of the proposed SCANM algorithm. Besides, a non-parametric test was performed, and the results that showed the ability of the proposed approach were not by coincidence. A popular and well-performed metaheuristic algorithm known as grey wolf optimization was also used along with the recent and promising two other algorithms (Archimedes optimization and Harris hawks optimization) to comparatively demonstrate the performance of the SCANM algorithm against well-known classical benchmark functions and CEC 2017 test suite. The comparative assessment showed that the SCANM algorithm has promising performance for optimization problems. The non-parametric test further verified the better capability of the proposed SCANM algorithm for optimization problems.
