This paper presents the application of a One Rank Cuckoo Search Algorithm (ORCSA) to bi-objective load dispatch (BOLD) problem where two objectives including fuel and emission are taken into consideration. ORCSA is an improvement of basic Cuckoo search algorithm (BCSA) where several modifications are carried out so as to improve the performance of the BCSA. The performance of the proposed ORCSA...

Predicting student academic performance with a high accuracy facilitates admission decisions and enhances educational services at educational institutions. This raises the need to propose a model that predicts student performance, based on the results of standardized exams, including university entrance exams, high school graduation exams, and other influential factors. In this study, an approa...

The drawback of the conventional multilevel thresholding methods is high computational cost since they do exhaustive search among exponentialy growing number of possible thresholds to optimize the objective functions. In this paper a new multilevel thresholding method based on cuckoo search (CS) algorithm is proposed in order to overcome this obstacle. The optimal thresholds are found by maximi...

Proposed system has been developed to extract the optimal features from the breast tumors using Enhanced Cuckoo Search (ECS) and presented in this paper. The texture feature, intensity histogram feature, radial distance feature and shape features have been extracted and the optimal feature set has been obtained using ECS. The overall accuracy of a minimum distance classifier and k-Nearest Neigh...

This paper proposes an improved cuckoo search (ICS) algorithm to establish the parameters of chaotic systems. In order to improve the optimization capability of the basic cuckoo search (CS) algorithm, the orthogonal design and simulated annealing operation are incorporated in the CS algorithm to enhance the exploitation search ability. Then the proposed algorithm is used to establish parameters...
