Weather forecasting plays a vital role in numerous sectors, but accurately capturing the complex dynamics of weather systems remains a challenge for traditional statistical models. Apart from Auto Regressive time forecasting models like ARIMA, deep learning techniques (Vanilla ANNs, LSTM and GRU networks), have shown promise in improving forecasting accuracy by capturing temporal dependencies. This paper explores the application of metaheuristic algorithms, namely Genetic Algorithm (GA), Differential Evolution (DE), and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), to automate the search for optimal hyperparameters in these model architectures. Metaheuristic algorithms excel in global optimization, offering robustness, versatility, and scalability in handling non-linear problems. We present a comparative analysis of different model architectures integrated with metaheuristic optimization, evaluating their performance in weather forecasting based on metrics such as Mean Squared Error (MSE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). The results demonstrate the potential of metaheuristic algorithms in enhancing weather forecasting accuracy \& helps in determining the optimal set of hyper-parameters for each model. The paper underscores the importance of harnessing advanced optimization techniques to select the most suitable metaheuristic algorithm for the given weather forecasting task.

Accurate load forecasting plays a vital role in numerous sectors, but accurately capturing the complex dynamics of dynamic power systems remains a challenge for traditional statistical models. For these reasons, time-series models (ARIMA) and deep-learning models (ANN, LSTM, GRU, etc.) are commonly deployed and often experience higher success. In this paper, we analyze the efficacy of the recently developed Transformer-based Neural Network model in Load forecasting. Transformer models have the potential to improve Load forecasting because of their ability to learn long-range dependencies derived from their Attention Mechanism. We apply several metaheuristics namely Differential Evolution to find the optimal hyperparameters of the Transformer-based Neural Network to produce accurate forecasts. Differential Evolution provides scalable, robust, global solutions to non-differentiable, multi-objective, or constrained optimization problems. Our work compares the proposed Transformer based Neural Network model integrated with different metaheuristic algorithms by their performance in Load forecasting based on numerical metrics such as Mean Squared Error (MSE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). Our findings demonstrate the potential of metaheuristic-enhanced Transformer-based Neural Network models in Load forecasting accuracy and provide optimal hyperparameters for each model.

Accurate weather forecasting holds significant importance, serving as a crucial tool for decision-making in various industrial sectors. The limitations of statistical models, assuming independence among data points, highlight the need for advanced methodologies. The correlation between meteorological variables necessitate models capable of capturing complex dependencies. This research highlights the practical efficacy of employing advanced machine learning techniques proposing GenHybQLSTM and BO-QEnsemble architecture based on adaptive weight adjustment strategy. Through comprehensive hyper-parameter optimization using hybrid quantum genetic particle swarm optimisation algorithm and Bayesian Optimization, our model demonstrates a substantial improvement in the accuracy and reliability of meteorological predictions through the assessment of performance metrics such as MSE (Mean Squared Error) and MAPE (Mean Absolute Percentage Prediction Error). The paper highlights the importance of optimized ensemble techniques to improve the performance the given weather forecasting task.

This paper presents RAVEN, a computationally efficient deep learning architecture for FMCW radar perception. The method processes raw ADC data in a chirp-wise streaming manner, preserves MIMO structure through independent receiver state-space encoders, and uses a learnable cross-antenna mixing module to recover compact virtual-array features. It also introduces an early-exit mechanism so the model can make decisions using only a subset of chirps when the latent state has stabilized. Across automotive radar benchmarks, the approach reports strong object detection and BEV free-space segmentation performance while substantially reducing computation and end-to-end latency compared with conventional frame-based radar pipelines.

Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, emphasizing the critical need for early detection and intervention. In this paper, we present DeepEyeNet, a novel and comprehensive framework for automated glaucoma detection using retinal fundus images. Our approach integrates advanced image standardization through dynamic thresholding, precise optic disc and cup segmentation via a U-Net model, and comprehensive feature extraction encompassing anatomical and texture-based features. We employ a customized ConvNeXtTiny based Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) classifier, optimized using our Adaptive Genetic Bayesian Optimization (AGBO) algorithm. This proposed AGBO algorithm balances exploration and exploitation in hyperparameter tuning, leading to significant performance improvements. Experimental results on the EyePACS-AIROGS-light-V2 dataset demonstrate that DeepEyeNet achieves a high classification accuracy of 95.84%, which was possible due to the effective optimization provided by the novel AGBO algorithm, outperforming existing methods. The integration of sophisticated image processing techniques, deep learning, and optimized hyperparameter tuning through our proposed AGBO algorithm positions DeepEyeNet as a promising tool for early glaucoma detection in clinical settings.

A number of life threatening neuro-degenerative disorders had degraded the quality of life for the older generation in particular. Dementia is one such symptom which may lead to a severe condition called Alzheimer's disease if not detected at an early stage. It has been reported that the progression of such disease from a normal stage is due to the change in several parameters inside the human brain. In this paper, an innovative metaheuristic algorithms based ViT model has been proposed for the identification of dementia at different stage. A sizeable number of test data have been utilized for the validation of the proposed scheme. It has also been demonstrated that our model exhibits superior performance in terms of accuracy, precision, recall as well as F1-score.
