Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Computational intelligence (CI) is an intellectual mode of low-level cognition. If a system only involves numerical (low-level) data and does not use knowledge in the sense of artificial intelligence, then it can be regarded as a CI system. The areas covered by computational intelligence include fuzzy logic, neural networks, evolutionary computation and probabilistic reasoning. The theories and techniques of CI allow us to find solutions to problems in pattern recognition, control, automated decision-making, optimization, statistical modeling, and many other areas. The research and development of CI reflect the important interdisciplinary and integrative development trend of present science and technology. This Special Issue will focus on new developments and advances in the various areas of computational intelligence, including the theory and applications to the fields of engineering, scientific computing, computer science, physics and life sciences.

The power supply is crucial in the present day due to the negative impacts of poor power quality on the electric grid. In this research, we employed deep learning methods to investigate the power factor, which is a significant indicator of power quality. A multi-step forecast was developed for the power factor in the power supply installation of a hot rolling mill, extending beyond the horizontal line. This was conducted using data obtained from the respective electrical supply system. The forecast was developed via hybrid RNN (recurrent neural networks) incorporating LSTM (long short-term memory) and GRU (gated recurrent unit) layers. This research utilized hybrid recurrent neural network designs with deep learning methods to build several power factor models. These layers have advantages for time series forecasting. After conducting time series forecasting, qualitative indicators of the prediction were identified, including the sMAPE (Symmetric Mean Absolute Percentage Error) and regression coefficient. In this paper, the authors examined the quality of applied models and forecasts utilizing these indicators, both in the short term and long term. Full article

The labor dispute is one of the most common civil disputes. It can be resolved in the order of the following steps, which include mediation in arbitration, arbitration award, first-instance mediation, first-instance judgment, and second-instance judgment. The process can cease at any step when it is successfully resolved. In recent years, due to the increasing rights awareness of employees, the number of labor disputes has been rising annually. However, resolving labor disputes is time-consuming and labor-intensive, which brings a heavy burden to employees and dispute resolution institutions. Using artificial intelligence algorithms to identify and predict the critical path of labor dispute resolution is helpful for saving resources and improving the efficiency of, and reducing the cost of dispute resolution. In this study, a machine learning approach based on Shapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) and a soft voting strategy is applied to predict the critical path of labor dispute resolution. We name our approach LDMLSV (stands for Labor Dispute Machine Learning based on SHapley additive exPlanations and Voting). This approach employs three machine learning models (Random Forest, Extra Trees, and CatBoost) and then integrates them using a soft voting strategy. Additionally, SHAP is used to explain the model and analyze the feature contribution. Based on the ranking of feature importance obtained from SHAP and an incremental feature selection method, we obtained an optimal feature subset comprising 33 features. The LDMLSV achieves an accuracy of 0.90 on this optimal feature subset. Therefore, the proposed approach is a highly effective method for predicting the critical path of labor dispute resolution.
