15 - 359 : Probability and Computing The Probabilistic Method
نویسنده
چکیده
The probabilistic method was developed by Paul Erdös and his collaborators as a technique for proving the existence of combinatorial objects by introducing an artificial probability distribution over them, and reasoning using the calculus of probability. The name is perhaps a bit of a misnomer in a probability course, but it was devised in a context where previously probability had little use. This basic idea is deceptively simple, and uses an obvious fact:

Applying Point Estimation and Monte Carlo Simulation Methods in Solving Probabilistic Optimal Power Flow Considering Renewable Energy Uncertainties
The increasing penetration of renewable energy results in changing the traditional power system planning and operation tools. As the generated power by the renewable energy resources are probabilistically changed, the certain power system analysis tolls cannot be applied in this case. Probabilistic optimal power flow is one of the most useful tools regarding the power system analysis in presen...
متن کاملEnergy-Aware Probabilistic Epidemic Forwarding Method in Heterogeneous Delay Tolerant Networks
Due to the increasing use of wireless communications, infrastructure-less networks such as Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) should be highly considered. DTN is most suitable where there is an intermittent connection between communicating nodes such as wireless mobile ad hoc network nodes. In general, a message sending node in DTN copies the message and transmits it to nodes which it encounters. A...
متن کاملSupport vector regression with random output variable and probabilistic constraints
Support Vector Regression (SVR) solves regression problems based on the concept of Support Vector Machine (SVM). In this paper, a new model of SVR with probabilistic constraints is proposed that any of output data and bias are considered the random variables with uniform probability functions. Using the new proposed method, the optimal hyperplane regression can be obtained by solving a quadrati...
متن کاملSafety Analysis of the Patch Load Resistance of Plate Girders: Influence of Model Error and Variability
This study aims to undertake a statistical study to evaluate the accuracy of nine models that have been previously proposed for estimating the ultimate resistance of plate girders subjected to patch loading. For each model, mean errors and standard errors, as well as the probability of underestimating or overestimating patch load resistance, are estimated and the resultant values are compared o...
متن کاملProbabilistic Optimal Operation of a Smart Grid Including Wind Power Generator Units
This paper presents a probabilistic optimal power flow (POPF) algorithm considering different uncertainties in a smart grid. Different uncertainties such as variation of nodal load, change in system configuration, measuring errors, forecasting errors, and etc. can be considered in the proposed algorithm. By increasing the penetration of the renewable energies in power systems, it is more essent...
