چکیده

We present a simple modification to the idea of impact-based search which has proven highly effective for several applications. Impacts measure the average reduction in search space due to propagation after a variable assignment has been committed. Rather than considering the mean reduction only, we consider the idea of incorporating the variance in reduction. Experimental results show that using variance can result in improved search performance.

Dynamic Modeling and Controller Design of Distribution Static Compensator in a Microgrid Based on Combination of Fuzzy Set and Galaxy-based Search Algorithm

This paper  presents a nonlinear controller for a Distribution Static Compensator (DSTATCOM) of a microgrid incorporating the Distributed Generation (DG) units. The nonlinear control has been designed based on partial feedback linearization theory and Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers try to adjust the voltage and trace the output. This paper has proposed a combination of a fuz...

مدل حل مبتنی بر جستجوگر محلی ژنتیک برای مساله زمان بندی استقرار کارگاهی تعمیم یافته با زمانهای عملیات قابل کنترل

Although incorporating complexities and flexibilities of real world manufacturing systems into classic scheduling problems results in problems with greater complexity, it has immense theoretical and practical importance due to its impressive effect on system performance. In this research, three basic assumptions of a job shop scheduling problem have been revised to develop a model with three ty...

IIR System Identification Using Improved Harmony Search Algorithm with Chaos

Due to the fact that the error surface of adaptive infinite impulse response (IIR) systems is generally nonlinear and multimodal, the conventional derivative based techniques fail when used in adaptive identification of such systems. In this case, global optimization techniques are required in order to avoid the local minima. Harmony search (HS), a musical inspired metaheuristic, is a recently ...
