Design of neuro-swarming computational solver for the fractional Bagley–Torvik mathematical model

Abstract

This study is to introduce a novel design and implementation of a neuro-swarming computational numerical procedure for numerical treatment of the fractional Bagley-Torvik mathematical model (FBTMM). The optimization procedures based on the global search with particle swarm optimization (PSO) and local search via active-set approach (ASA), while Mayer wavelet kernel-based activation function used in neural network (MWNNs) modeling, i.e., MWNN-PSOASA, to solve the FBTMM. The efficiency of the proposed stochastic solver MWNN-GAASA is utilized to solve three different variants based on the fractional order of the FBTMM. For the meticulousness of the stochastic solver MWNN-PSOASA, the obtained and exact solutions are compared for each variant of the FBTMM with reasonable accuracy. For the reliability of the stochastic solver MWNN-PSOASA, the statistical investigations are provided based on the stability, robustness, accuracy and convergence metrics.
