Computational linguistics explores how human language is interpreted automatically and then processed. Research in this area takes the logical and mathematical features of natural language and advances methods and statistical procedures for automated language processing. Slot filling and intent detection are significant modules in task-based dialogue systems. Intent detection is a critical task in any natural language understanding (NLU) system and constitutes the base of a task-based dialogue system. In order to build high-quality, real-time conversational solutions for edge gadgets, there is a demand for deploying intent-detection methods on devices. This mandates an accurate, lightweight, and fast method that effectively operates in a resource-limited environment. Earlier works have explored the usage of several machine-learning (ML) techniques for detecting intent in user queries. In this article, we propose Computational Linguistics with Deep-Learning-Based Intent Detection and Classification (CL-DLBIDC) for natural language understanding. The presented CL-DLBIDC technique receives word embedding as input and learned meaningful features to determine the probable intention of the user query. In addition, the presented CL-DLBIDC technique uses the GloVe approach. In addition, the CL-DLBIDC technique makes use of the deep learning modified neural network (DLMNN) model for intent detection and classification. For the hyperparameter tuning process, the mayfly optimization (MFO) algorithm was used in this study. The experimental analysis of the CL-DLBIDC method took place under a set of simulations, and the results were scrutinized for distinct aspects. The simulation outcomes demonstrate the significant performance of the CL-DLBIDC algorithm over other DL models. Full article

This scientific paper aims to increase the voltage source converter (VSC) control efficiency in a multi-terminal high voltage direct current (MTDC) network during dynamic operations. In the proposed study, the Mayfly algorithm (MA) is used to modify the control parameters of VSC stations. Traditional strategies that modify VSC control settings using approximate linear models fail to produce optimal results because VSCs are nonlinear characteristics of the MTDC system. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) may produce optimal outcomes, but it is prone to becoming stuck in a local optimum. To modify the proportional-integral (P.I.) control parameters of the VSC station, the Mayfly algorithm, a modified form of PSO, is used. The suggested algorithm’s objective function simultaneously optimizes both the outer and inner control layers. A four-terminal MTDC test system is developed in PSCAD/EMTDC to assess the benefits of the proposed algorithm. For VSCs, a comparison of classical, PSO, and proposed MA-based tuned parameters is carried out. The integral of time multiplied by absolute error (ITAE) criterion is used to compare the performance of classical, PSO, and a proposed algorithm for VSC controller parameters/gains. With an ITAE value of 6.8521 × 10⁻⁶, the MA-based proposed algorithm computes the optimal values and outperforms its predecessor to adjust the VSCs controller gains. For (i) wind farm power variation, (ii) AC grid load demand variation, and (iii) ultimate permanent VSC disconnection, steady-state and dynamic performances are evaluated. According to the results, the proposed algorithm based MTDC system performs well during transients. Full article

The unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) path planning problem is primarily concerned with avoiding collision with obstacles while determining the best flight path to the target position. This paper first establishes a cost function to transform the UAV route planning issue into an optimization issue that meets the UAV’s feasible path requirements and path safety constraints. Then, this paper introduces a modified Mayfly Algorithm (modMA), which employs an exponent decreasing inertia weight (EDIW) strategy, adaptive Cauchy mutation, and an enhanced crossover operator to effectively search the UAV configuration space and discover the path with the lowest overall cost. Finally, the proposed modMA is evaluated on 26 benchmark functions as well as the UAV route planning problem, and the results demonstrate that it outperforms the other compared algorithms.

This study proposes a novel resonance demodulation frequency band selection method named the initial center frequency-guided filter (ICFGF) to diagnose the bearing fault. The proposed technology has a better performance on resisting the interference from the random impulses. More explicitly, the ICFGF can be summarized as two steps. In the first step, a variance statistic index is applied to evaluate the energy spectrum distribution, which can adaptively determine the center frequency of the fault impulse and suppress the interference from random impulse effectively. In the second step, a modified mayfly optimization algorithm (MMA) is applied to search the optimal resonance demodulation frequency band based on the center frequency from the first step, which has faster convergence. Finally, the filtered signal is processed by the squared envelope spectrum technology. Results of the proposed method for signals from an outer fault bearing and a ball fault bearing indicate that the ICFGF works well to extract bearing fault feature. Furthermore, compared with some other methods, including fast kurtogram, ensemble empirical mode decomposition, and conditional variance-based selector technology, the ICFGF can extract the fault characteristic more accurately.
