Abstract

The rising popularity of electric vehicles (EVs) can be attributed to their positive impact on the environment and their ability to lower operational expenses. Nevertheless, the task of determining the most suitable EV types for a specific site continues to pose difficulties, mostly due to the wide range of consumer preferences and the inherent limits of EVs. This study introduces a new voting classifier model that incorporates the Al-Biruni earth radius optimization algorithm, which is derived from the stochastic fractal search. The model aims to predict the optimal EV type for a given location by considering factors such as user preferences, availability of charging infrastructure, and distance to the destination. The proposed classification methodology entails the utilization of ensemble learning, which can be subdivided into two distinct stages: pre-classification and classification. During the initial stage of classification, the process of data preprocessing involves converting unprocessed data into a refined, systematic, and well-arranged format that is appropriate for subsequent analysis or modeling. During the classification phase, a majority vote ensemble learning method is utilized to categorize unlabeled data properly and efficiently. This method consists of three independent classifiers. The efficacy and efficiency of the suggested method are showcased through simulation experiments. The results indicate that the collaborative classification method performs very well and consistently in classifying EV populations. In comparison to similar classification approaches, the suggested method demonstrates improved performance in terms of assessment metrics such as accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and F-score. The improvements observed in these metrics are 91.22%, 94.34%, 89.5%, and 88.5%, respectively. These results highlight the overall effectiveness of the proposed method. Hence, the suggested approach is seen more favorable for implementing the voting classifier in the context of the EV population across different geographical areas.
