Because practical situations always produce massive MSML data, but they usually contain more missing feature values in the high-dimensional feature space and present severely skewed label distributions in the multi-label space, which aggravate the difficulties in the tackling of high-dimensional feature selection on MSML data. However, much attention in feature selection has been directed either toward multi-label data or multi-source data, while little attention is focused on MSML data, not to mention those containing missing features. Motivated by this, we present a new feature selection method for MSML data with missing features, called MMFSMF. Specifically, to overcome the issue of feature missing, we first supplement the feature matrix by constructing a feature correlation matrix during the modeling process of multi-label learning. At the meanwhile, we utilize a multi-label oversampling mechanism to address the persistent problem of label skewness in multi-label data. Secondly, in terms of the above processing, we introduce a refined infinite feature selection algorithm to perform feature dimensionality reduction in each multi-label data source, considering both label correlations and label-specific features. Thirdly, to address feature redundancy among multiple data sources, we apply a new inter-source feature fusion method. Finally, experiments conducted on nine synthetic MSML datasets with missing features demonstrate that MMFSMF achieves superior performances compared to all competing ones.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50461,"journal":{"name":"Expert Systems with Applications","volume":"298 ","pages":"Article 129879"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2025-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145222010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To tackle these issues, this paper proposes a structured LCC reliability assessment model designed for real estate decision-makers. The model systematically identifies and analyzes key cost factors across all project phases, including construction, operation, renewal, maintenance, and end-of-life, while integrating technical, economic, environmental, and social dimensions. A structured survey was employed to quantify and prioritize these cost factors, facilitating the development of category-specific LCC models and a standardized evaluation framework.

Although this study emphasizes the reliability dimension, it establishes a foundation for the future integration of an optimization module to enhance decision-making and maximize life cycle cost efficiency.

In recent years, multi-objective evolutionary algorithms have been widely applied to FS problems due to their ability to simultaneously optimize multiple objectives (i.e., classification accuracy and subset size for an FS problem). However, when dealing with large-scale multi-objective FS problems, existing algorithms often suffer from the vast search space and limited search capability, which makes them prone to local optima. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a two-stage evolutionary algorithm guided by dual feature weightings, named TSEA/DFW. In the first stage, an evolutionary search is performed under the guidance of the filter-based feature weighting strategy. The key features are then identified based on the population distribution and optimal solutions, thereby shrinking the search space. In the second stage, a refined search is conducted in the shrunken feature space to boost search efficiency and solution quality. To this end, a novel weighting strategy named Pareto-based hierarchical feature weighting is proposed, which captures the variation in feature performance across different non-dominated levels, reinforces the contribution of high-quality solutions, and preserves useful information from suboptimal solutions. Additionally, a novel offspring reproduction procedure guided by stage-specific feature weights is designed to further enhance search capability. Experimental results on 13 real-world datasets show that the proposed TSEA/DFW performs best on 10 datasets in terms of HV metric and on 11 datasets in terms of IGD, demonstrating the significant superiority of TSEA/DFW over seven state-of-the-art feature selection methods. The performance improvements stem from the two-stage evolutionary framework guided by dual feature weighting, which enables the early identification of important features, thereby effectively reducing the search space and enhancing search efficiency. In addition, further analysis demonstrates that the proposed TSEA/DFW has strong generality across diverse classifiers, and the developed two-stage evolutionary framework in TSEA/DFW is a general powerful framework that can integrate any mainstream FS algorithm into its second stage, exhibiting robust applicability and scalability.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50461,"journal":{"name":"Expert Systems with Applications","volume":"298 ","pages":"Article 129823"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2025-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145220940","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Each electric vehicle must complete service for all customers within the current cluster before proceeding to the next cluster or returning to the depot. Electric vehicles can charge at any available charging station while serving a cluster, but incur a penalty cost upon entering each cluster. The objective is to minimize the total logistics cost, comprising vehicle startup costs, cluster entry penalty costs, and energy consumption costs. To solve CluEVRP, a two-stage hybrid heuristic combining a Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Variable Neighborhood Descent (VND) is proposed (HGA-VND), where GA ensures population diversity and VND enhances local search capability. To evaluate the algorithm’s performance, 75 test instances are adapted from classic Clustered Vehicle Routing Problem (CluVRP) dataset, incorporating electric vehicle characteristics. Computational results demonstrate that HGA-VND consistently obtains high-quality solutions within reasonable time for both CluVRP and CluEVRP instances, exhibiting good performance. Furthermore, sensitivity analysis indicates that moderately increasing vehicle capacity, optimizing battery configuration, and adopting lightweight designs can significantly reduce total operating costs.

Combining freight transportation with passenger services can enhance the efficiency and profitability of buses in both urban and rural areas, while also reducing environmental impacts. A case in point is the integration of freight deliveries into rural bus networks in China. Concurrently, with the advancement of autonomous delivery robot (ADR) technology, there is a growing deployment of ADRs for last-mile delivery purposes. In this paper, we have studied a new collaborative passenger and freight transportation problem involving buses and ADRs, namely, the bus and ADR collaborative delivery problem (BACDP). In this scenario, a bus route transports several ADRs, which carry multiple parcels, to distribution regions for door-to-door delivery, each ADR boards a bus to reach the sub-region and then boards another bus to return to the distribution center. We have proposed a mathematical model for BACDP, which can be decomposed into a master problem and a sub-problem. and the condition that the optimal solution to the master problem is also the optimal solution to the original problem has been proved. To tackle the BACDP effectively, we designed a novel three-stage iterative method, guided by adaptive late acceptance hill-climbing heuristics (ALAHH). Specifically, at the first stage, the k-means++ and Hamiltonian graph-guided algorithms are used to cluster customers; at the second stage, the variable neighborhood search plans the ADRs’ routes; at the third stage, we utilize the solver to address subproblems, and the evaluation and invocation mechanism is proposed to achieve the efficient utilization of solvers. Extensive experiments have been conducted on synthetic instances of varying scales to investigate the efficiency of ALAHH. The experimental results demonstrate that the objective values and the computation time are significantly lower than those of SA and LAHC, and our algorithm has achieved the best solutions for 16 problems to date.
