A Hybrid Framework for Stock Price Forecasting Using Metaheuristic Feature Selection Approaches and Transformer Models Enhanced by Temporal Embedding and Attention Pruning

open access: yesApplied AI Letters, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
Workflow of the proposed hybrid BWO‐Transformer framework for stock price prediction. ABSTRACT Accurately predicting stock prices remains a major challenge in financial analytics due to the complexity and noise inherent in market data. Feature selection plays a critical role in improving both computational efficiency and predictive performance. In this

A Computationally Efficient Stochastic Method for Quantifying the Effects of Multi‐Surrogate Model Uncertainty on Saltwater Remediation Optimization

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Machine learning models are highly potential to substitute computationally intensive numerical simulation models in saltwater intrusion (SWI) remediation optimization. However, uncertainty inherent in machine learning models can propagate through predictions into optimization, resulting in inaccurate solutions.
