Metaheuristic-driven optimization of machine learning models for predicting principal dimensions of container ships
This study integrates metaheuristic optimization algorithms with machine learning models to enhance the predictive performance for four key target variables: length (L), beam (B), draft (T), and block coefficient (CB). Three baseline models (XGBoost, LightGBM, SVR) were individually optimized using GWO, WOA, and PSO to form hybrid prediction frameworks. The results demonstrate that the hybrid models consistently outperform their non-optimized counterparts, achieving higher accuracy and better generalization, particularly with GWO yielding stable improvements. This highlights the critical role of algorithm selection in model optimization and confirms the potential of metaheuristic-augmented machine learning models in ship design automation.
