Abstract

Classification prediction technology, which utilizes labeled data for training to enable autonomous decision, has emerged as a pivotal tool across numerous fields. The Elman neural network (ENN) exhibits potential in tackling nonlinear problems. However, its computational process faces inherent limitations in escaping local optimum and experiencing a slow convergence rate. To improve these shortcomings, an ENN classifier based on Hyperactivity Rat Swarm Optimizer (HRSO), named HRSO-ENNC, is proposed in this paper. Initially, HRSO is divided into two phases, search and mutation, by means of a nonlinear adaptive parameter. Subsequently, five search actions are introduced to enhance the global exploratory and local exploitative capabilities of HRSO. Furthermore, a stochastic roaming strategy is employed, which significantly improves the ability to jump out of local positions. Ultimately, the integration of HRSO and ENN enables the substitution of the original gradient descent method, thereby optimizing the neural connection weights and thresholds. The experiment results demonstrate that the accuracy and stability of HRSO-ENNC have been effectively verified through comparisons with other algorithm classifiers on benchmark functions, classification datasets and an AlSi10Mg process classification problem.
