Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Machine Learning Models to Predict Student Academic Performance Using Structured Educational DataHardik Ishwarbhai Patel, Dharmendra PatelThis study analyses the use of machine learning for predicting the academic performance of students using their academic information from the institution, combined with socio-economic information that comes from outside sources. The collection of information is done using structured questionnaires as well as through data extraction from the Student Information System (SIS). To increase the reliability of models built, a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 5 · 26 May 2026 · 1,419 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNatural Reforestation Optimization (NRO): A Novel Optimization Algorithm Inspired by the Reforestation ProcessFernando L. Rodríguez-Gallegos, César A. Rodríguez-Gallegos, Andrés A. Rodríguez-Gallegos, Carlos D. Rodríguez-GallegosThis paper proposes a new meta-heuristic-based optimization algorithm for single-objective problems. The algorithm is called Natural Reforestation Optimization (NRO) and is inspired by the process in which natural reforestation takes place. The features of this algorithm (such as the distribution of the initial population, the exploration and exploitation mechanisms, the interactions between the particles, the stopping criteria, among others) are … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 8 · 2 Sep 2020 · 6,655 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Ant Colony Optimization and Genetic Algorithm for Rule InductionHayder Naser Khraibet AL-Behadili, Ku Ruhana Ku-Mahamud, Rafid SagbanIn this study, a hybrid rule-based classifier namely, ant colony optimization/genetic algorithm ACO/GA is introduced to improve the classification accuracy of Ant-Miner classifier by using GA. The Ant-Miner classifier is efficient, useful and commonly used for solving rule-based classification problems in data mining. Ant-Miner, which is an ACO variant, suffers from local optimization problem which affects its performance. In our … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 7 · 24 Jul 2020 · 7,899 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Reinforced Concrete Beams and Steel Beams: A Comparative StudyJoel M. Ozimboski, Zacarias M.C. Pravia, Moacir KripkaIn order to support the structural designer with regard to the selection of structural materials, this work presents results obtained from the optimization of reinforced concrete beams and welded “I” steel beams. To achieve this objective, both problems were formulated according to Brazilian standards, considering the cost as objective function and section dimensions as design variables. For the optimization of … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 18 Jun 2020 · 6,596 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Robust Modification of Hestenes–Stiefel Conjugate Gradient Method with Strong Wolfe Line SearchAwad Abdelrahman, Osman O.O. Yousif, Khalid I. OsmanNonlinear Conjugate Gradient (CG) methods are extensively used for solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems. Numerous of studies constructed scales and modifications have been conducted recently to improve (CG) methods. In this paper, a simple modified by its conjugate gradient method was proposed. In addition to, established global convergence property and sufficient descent condition, under Strong Wolfe line search. Numerical result … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 14 May 2020 · 6,743 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing the Cuckoo Search for Generating New Particles in Particle Swarm Optimization AlgorithmFariaa Abdalmajeed Hameed, Harith Raad Hasan, Ahmed Abdullah Ahmed, Gulala Ali Hama AminThis study is focused on as Cuckoo Search (CS), one of the current meta-heuristic optimization algorithm. The CS algorithm is useful in generating and searching for the most optimum particles of important meta-heuristic optimization algorithm, known as the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), to enhance its performance. This optimization is confirmed through a benchmark online optimization and actual problems. The PSO … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2020 · 7,441 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstablishing an Evacuation Network: A Path Ranking ApproachHoussein Alaeddine, Kamal Serrhini, Mindjid Maizia, Emmanuel NéronThe evacuation of population exposed to flood hazard requires the establishment of a specific transportation network. This is to compute escape routes to be taken by affected population. At evacuation time, inhabitants of affected area must be evacuated through transportation network to safety area. The main objective of this work is to provide assistance to rescue forces in terms of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 12 · 3 Dec 2019 · 7,899 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of Telemedicine Robot using Behavior-based Control Architecture with Two-Step Fuzzy Logic OptimizationAndi Adriansyah, Nanda Ferdana, Setiyo Budiyanto, Julpri AndikaDesigning a telemedicine robot is a challenging task. Complexity, incomplete prior knowledge of the environment and unexpected situations set strict requirements for both the hardware and software components of the robot. Several robotics architectures have been proposed that try to cope with the above problems. The behavior-based approach has been established as the main alternative to new robot control. The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 11 · 13 Nov 2019 · 7,579 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModified ACS Centroid Memory for Data ClusteringAyad Mohammed Jabbar, Ku Ruhana Ku-Mahamud, Rafid SagbanAnt Colony Optimization (ACO) is a generic algorithm, which has been widely used in different application domains due to its simplicity and adaptiveness to different optimization problems. The key component that governs the search process in this algorithm is the management of its memory model. In contrast to other algorithms, ACO explicitly utilizes an adaptive memory, which is important to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 10 · 11 Oct 2019 · 7,641 accessesView PDFCite
