Chaos optimization and adaptive genetic algorithm were used to deal with the problem of multi-targets data association separately. Based on the analysis of the limitation of chaos optimization and genetic algorithm, a new chaos genetic optimization combination algorithm was presented. This new algorithm first applied the "rough" search of chaos optimization to initialize the population of GA, then optimized the population by real-coded adaptive GA. In this way, GA can not only jump out of the "trap" of local optimal results easily but also increase the rate of convergence. And the new method can also avoid the complexity and time-consumed limitation of conventional way. The simulation results show that the combination algorithm can obtain higher correct association percent and the effect of association is obviously superior to chaos optimization or genetic algorithm separately. This method has better convergence property as well as time property than the conventional ones.展开更多

DCES, a demand-side management method, realizes automatic matching of power consumption and power generation by adjusting non-critical load (NCL) and internal storage. It can offer higher power quality to critical load (CL), reduce power imbalance and relieve pressure on energy storage systems (RESs). In this paper, a planning method for parallel DCESs is proposed to maximize stability gain, economic benefits, and penetration of RESs. The planning model is a master optimization with sub-optimization to highlight the priority of objectives. Master optimization is used to improve stability of the network, and sub-optimization aims to improve economic benefit and allowable penetration of RESs. This issue is a multivariable nonlinear mixed integer problem, requiring huge calculations by using common solvers. Therefore, particle Swarm optimization (PSO) and Elitist non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) were used to solve this model. Considering uncertainty of RESs, this paper verifies effectiveness of the proposed planning method on IEEE 33-bus system based on deterministic scenarios obtained by scenario analysis.展开更多

Same as the sub-gradient type method, intelligent optimization algorithms, which are widely used in engineering optimization, can also be adopted in VDA in virtue of their no requirement of cost function＇s gradient （or sub-gradient） and their capability of global convergence. Two typical intelligent optimization algorithms, genetic algorithm （GA） and particle swarm optimization （PSO）, are introduced to VDA of modified Lorenz equations with on-off parameterizations, then two VDA schemes are proposed, that is, GA based VDA （GA-VDA） and PSO based VDA （PSO-VDA）. After revealing the advantage of GA and PSO over conventional adjoint methods in the ability of global searching at the existence of cost function＇s discontinuity induced by on-off switches, sensitivities of GA-VDA and PSO-VDA to population size, observational noise, model error and observational density are detailedly analyzed. It＇s shown that, in the context of modified Lorenz equations, with proper population size, GA-VDA and PSO-VDA can effectively estimate the global optimal solution, while PSO-VDA consumes much less computational time than GA-VDA with the same population size, and requires a much lower population size with nearly the same results, both methods are not very sensitive to observation noise and model error, while PSO-VDA shows a better performance with observational noise than GA-VDA. It is encouraging that both methods are not sensitive to observational density, especially PSO-VDA, using which almost the same perfect assimilation results can be obtained with comparatively sparse observations.展开更多

文摘A new hybrid optimization method based on genetic algorithm(GA)and seeker optimization algorithm(SOA)is presented in this paper.The hybrid algorithm optimizes SOA by using crossover and mutation operations in GA in order to improve the global search ability of SOA.Four algorithms,i.e.particle swarm optimization(PSO),SOA,GA and quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization(GA-QPSO)and GA-SOA are used to process the simulation and experimental data of Brillouin scattering spectrum(BSS)at different temperatures.The results show that GA-SOA improves the accuracy of extracting the center frequency shift and the minimum center frequency of Brillouin scattering spectrum compared with other three algorithms.The shift error is 0.203 MHz.Therefore,GA-SOA can be applied to the accurate extraction of BSS characteristics.

文摘This paper addresses the planning problem of parallel DC electric springs (DCESs). DCES, a demand-side management method, realizes automatic matching of power consumption and power generation by adjusting non-critical load (NCL) and internal storage. It can offer higher power quality to critical load (CL), reduce power imbalance and relieve pressure on energy storage systems (RESs). In this paper, a planning method for parallel DCESs is proposed to maximize stability gain, economic benefits, and penetration of RESs. The planning model is a master optimization with sub-optimization to highlight the priority of objectives. Master optimization is used to improve stability of the network, and sub-optimization aims to improve economic benefit and allowable penetration of RESs. This issue is a multivariable nonlinear mixed integer problem, requiring huge calculations by using common solvers. Therefore, particle Swarm optimization (PSO) and Elitist non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) were used to solve this model. Considering uncertainty of RESs, this paper verifies effectiveness of the proposed planning method on IEEE 33-bus system based on deterministic scenarios obtained by scenario analysis.

文摘Cutting parameters have a significant impact on the machining effect.In order to reduce the machining time and improve the machining quality,this paper proposes an optimization algorithm based on Bp neural networkImproved Multi-Objective Particle Swarm(Bp-DWMOPSO).Firstly,this paper analyzes the existing problems in the traditional multi-objective particle swarm algorithm.Secondly,the Bp neural network model and the dynamic weight multi-objective particle swarm algorithm model are established.Finally,the Bp-DWMOPSO algorithm is designed based on the established models.In order to verify the effectiveness of the algorithm,this paper obtains the required data through equal probability orthogonal experiments on a typical Computer Numerical Control(CNC)turning machining case and uses the Bp-DWMOPSO algorithm for optimization.The experimental results show that the Cutting speed is 69.4 mm/min,the Feed speed is 0.05 mm/r,and the Depth of cut is 0.5 mm.The results show that the Bp-DWMOPSO algorithm can find the cutting parameters with a higher material removal rate and lower spindle load while ensuring the machining quality.This method provides a new idea for the optimization of turning machining parameters.
文摘Wireless Sensor Networks are a group of sensors with inadequate power sources that are installed in a particular region to gather information from the surroundings.Designing energy-efficient data gathering methods in large-scale Wireless Sensor Networks(WSN)is one of the most difficult areas of study.As every sensor node has afinite amount of energy.Battery power is the most significant source in the WSN.Clustering is a well-known technique for enhan-cing the power feature in WSN.In the proposed method multi-Swarm optimiza-tion based on a Genetic Algorithm and Adaptive Hierarchical clustering-based routing protocol are used for enhancing the network’s lifespan and routing opti-mization.By using distributed data transmission modification,an adaptive hier-archical clustering-based routing algorithm for power consumption is presented to ensure continuous coverage of the entire area.To begin,a hierarchical cluster-ing-based routing protocol is presented in terms of balancing node energy con-sumption.The Multi-Swarm optimization(MSO)based Genetic Algorithms are proposed to select an efficient Cluster Head(CH).It also improves the network’s longevity and optimizes the routing.As a result of the study’sfindings,the pro-posed MSO-Genetic Algorithm with Hill climbing(GAHC)is effective,as it increases the number of clusters created,average energy expended,lifespan com-putation reduces average packet loss,and end-to-end delay.
文摘Nowadays,succeeding safe communication and protection-sensitive data from unauthorized access above public networks are the main worries in cloud servers.Hence,to secure both data and keys ensuring secured data storage and access,our proposed work designs a Novel Quantum Key Distribution(QKD)relying upon a non-commutative encryption framework.It makes use of a Novel Quantum Key Distribution approach,which guarantees high level secured data transmission.Along with this,a shared secret is generated using Diffie Hellman(DH)to certify secured key generation at reduced time complexity.Moreover,a non-commutative approach is used,which effectively allows the users to store and access the encrypted data into the cloud server.Also,to prevent data loss or corruption caused by the insiders in the cloud,Optimized Genetic Algorithm(OGA)is utilized,which effectively recovers the data and retrieve it if the missed data without loss.It is then followed with the decryption process as if requested by the user.Thus our proposed framework ensures authentication and paves way for secure data access,with enhanced performance and reduced complexities experienced with the prior works.

文摘Some variational data assimilation （VDA） problems of time- and space-discrete models with on/off parameterizations can be regarded as non-smooth optimization problems. Same as the sub-gradient type method, intelligent optimization algorithms, which are widely used in engineering optimization, can also be adopted in VDA in virtue of their no requirement of cost function＇s gradient （or sub-gradient） and their capability of global convergence. Two typical intelligent optimization algorithms, genetic algorithm （GA） and particle swarm optimization （PSO）, are introduced to VDA of modified Lorenz equations with on-off parameterizations, then two VDA schemes are proposed, that is, GA based VDA （GA-VDA） and PSO based VDA （PSO-VDA）. After revealing the advantage of GA and PSO over conventional adjoint methods in the ability of global searching at the existence of cost function＇s discontinuity induced by on-off switches, sensitivities of GA-VDA and PSO-VDA to population size, observational noise, model error and observational density are detailedly analyzed. It＇s shown that, in the context of modified Lorenz equations, with proper population size, GA-VDA and PSO-VDA can effectively estimate the global optimal solution, while PSO-VDA consumes much less computational time than GA-VDA with the same population size, and requires a much lower population size with nearly the same results, both methods are not very sensitive to observation noise and model error, while PSO-VDA shows a better performance with observational noise than GA-VDA. It is encouraging that both methods are not sensitive to observational density, especially PSO-VDA, using which almost the same perfect assimilation results can be obtained with comparatively sparse observations.

文摘Based on conventional particle swarm optimization(PSO),this paper presents an efficient and reliable heuristic approach using PSO with an adaptive random inertia weight(ARIW)strategy,referred to as the ARIW-PSO algorithm,to build a multi-objective optimization model for reservoir operation.Using the triangular probability density function,the inertia weight is randomly generated,and the probability density function is automatically adjusted to make the inertia weight generally greater in the initial stage of evolution,which is suitable for global searches.In the evolution process,the inertia weight gradually decreases,which is beneficial to local searches.The performance of the ARIWPSO algorithm was investigated with some classical test functions,and the results were compared with those of the genetic algorithm(GA),the conventional PSO,and other improved PSO methods.Then,the ARIW-PSO algorithm was applied to multi-objective optimal dispatch of the Panjiakou Reservoir and multi-objective flood control operation of a reservoir group on the Luanhe River in China,including the Panjiakou Reservoir,Daheiting Reservoir,and Taolinkou Reservoir.The validity of the multi-objective optimization model for multi-reservoir systems based on the ARIW-PSO algorithm was verified.
