Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Systematic Review of Metaheuristic-Metaheuristic (MH-MH) Hybridizations for OptimizationAugustina Dede Agor, Frank Kataka Banaseka, Prince Silas Kwesi Oberko et al.This systematic review following the PRISMA framework analyzes metaheuristic-metaheuristic (MH-MH) hybridizations published between January and October 2024 to uncover patterns of algorithmic dominance, functional roles and integration strategies, metaphor-based partnerships, domain mappings and evaluation orientations. Frequency mapping of 105 canonical algorithms identified Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO), and Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) as the three most recurrent … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 4 Mar 2026 · 2,183 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficiency and Sustainability of Alternative Protein Sources for Livestock Production in Sub-Saharan Africa: A Systematic Review and Meta-AnalysisOlusegun Oyebade Ikusika, Bulo Luvuyo, Jaja Ishmeal FestusSub-Saharan Africa (SSA) faces growing challenges in sustainable livestock production due to high costs and limited availability of conventional protein sources such as soybean meal and fishmeal. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the nutritional efficiency and sustainability of locally available alternative protein sources for livestock feed in SSA. Following PRISMA guidelines, systematic searches were conducted across five databases (PubMed, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 19 Feb 2026 · 1,844 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSystematic Literature Review of Graph Neural Networks in Disaster Management: Methods, Applications, and Future DirectionsSularno, Wendi Boy, Putri Anggraini et al.The increasing frequency and complexity of natural disasters underscore the urgent need for intelligent systems that support timely and effective decision-making. Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have emerged as a powerful deep-learning paradigm for modeling spatial and relational data, offering distinct advantages for disaster management. This study presents a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of GNN-based approaches for disaster mitigation, emergency response, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 17 Feb 2026 · 2,036 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMulti-Agent Energy Allocation Optimization in Local Energy Communities: A Comparative StudyAmira Dhorbani, Dhaker Abbes, Benoît Robyns, Kahina Hassam OuariThe growing diversity of energy demands, combined with the integration of renewable and distributed energy systems, calls for more adaptive energy management strategies. This study presents a comparative simulation-based analysis of three energy management approaches applied to a local energy community: A Multi-Agent System (MAS), a centralized rule-based method, and a game-theory-based optimization using the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 30 Dec 2025 · 3,381 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Analysis of Binary Patterns Pyramid and Gabor Filters for Machine Learning-Based Nail Disease DetectionJagadeeswari Boopalan, Maruthu Perumal SabtharishiNail diseases, including Onychomycosis and Psoriasis, are common conditions that pose diagnostic challenges due to subtle clinical presentations and reliance on invasive methods. This study investigates the effectiveness of Binary Patterns Pyramid Filter (BPPF) and Gabor Filter (GF) as feature extraction techniques for machine learning-based nail disease detection, addressing three categories: Healthy, Onychomycosis, and Psoriasis. Using a dataset of 1,466 … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 8 · 2 Oct 2025 · 2,178 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractA Discussion of the Synergy and Divergence between Lean Six Sigma and Person-Centred Improvement SciencesSeán Paul Teeling, Jan Dewing, Deborah BaldieBackground: This paper discusses if and how the improvement sciences of Lean Six Sigma and person-centred approaches can be melded or blended in the health care context. The discussion highlights the relationship between each approach to improvement science in terms of their respective purposes, intentions and probable outcomes; positioning these as either synergies or divergences. Comparison of the key theoretical … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Apr 2020 · 33,445 accessesView PDFCite
