This paper proposes a new and efficient layered-coevolution-based attribute-boosted reduction algorithm (LCQ-ABR*) using adaptive quantum behavior particle swarm optimization (PSO). First, the quantum rotation angle of an evolutionary particle is updated by a dynamic change of self-adapting step size. Second, a self-adaptive partitioning strategy is employed to group particles into different memeplexes, and the quantum-behavior mechanism with the particles' states depicted by the wave function cooperates to achieve superior performance in their respective memeplexes. Third, a new layered co-evolutionary model with multi-agent interaction is constructed to decompose a complex attribute set, and it can self-adapt the attribute sizes among different layers and produce the reasonable decompositions by exploiting any interdependency among multiple relevant attribute subsets. Fourth, the decomposed attribute subsets are evolved to compute the positive region and discernibility matrix by using their best quantum particles, and the global optimal reduction set is induced successfully. Finally, extensive comparative experiments are provided to illustrate that LCQ-ABR* has better feasibility and effectiveness of attribute reduction on large-scale and uncertain dataset problems with complex noise, compared with Index Terms-Attribute-boosted reduction, adaptive quantum behavior PSO, layered-coevolution with multi-agent interaction, consistent segmentation for neonates brain tissue, sulci and gyrus estimate.

A New Divergence Measure of Pythagorean Fuzzy Sets Based on Belief Function and Its Application in Medical Diagnosis

“…In the diagnostic process of medical profession, improving the processing capacity of various uncertain and inconsistent information and achieving more accurate decision-making have become the major challenges in the development of medical diagnosis [1][2][3]. Up to now, the process of medical diagnosis is driven by various theoretical studies, such as fuzzy sets theory [4][5][6], intuitionistic fuzzy sets [7][8][9][10], interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets [11][12][13], and quantum decision [14][15][16].…”

An Efficient Approximation for Nakagami‐m Quantile Function Based on Generalized Opposition‐Based Quantum Salp Swarm Algorithm

“…According to the theory of SSA and quantum computing [21][22][23][24][25], the GO-QSSA is proposed in this paper. e GO-QSSA not only takes advantage of salps' swarm intelligence but also designs brand new mathematical equations to overcome the drawbacks of SSA.…”
