This paper presents a novel approach for tuning unified power flow controller (UPFC) based damping controller in order to enhance the damping of power system low frequency oscillations. The design problem of damping controller is formulated as an optimization problem according to the eigenvalue-based objective function which is solved using iteration particle swarm optimization (IPSO).

A neural network model based on a chaotic particle swarm optimization (CPSO) radial basis function-back propagation (RBF-BP) was suggested to improve the accuracy of reactor temperature prediction. The training efficiency RBF-BP is influenced some degree by large randomness initial weight and threshold. To address impact threshold uncertainty combined network, this paper proposes using algorith...

In this paper, a chaotic particle swarm optimization with mutation-based classifier particle swarm optimization is proposed to classify patterns of different classes in the feature space. The introduced mutation operators and chaotic sequences allows us to overcome the problem of early convergence into a local minima associated with particle swarm optimization algorithms. That is, the mutation ...

Although many mathematicians have searched on the fractional calculus since many years ago, but its application in engineering, especially in modeling and control, does not have many antecedents. Since there are much freedom in choosing the order of differentiator and integrator in fractional calculus, it is possible to model the physical systems accurately. This paper deals with time-domain id...

This paper presents Chemo-tactic PSO-DE (CPSO-DE) optimization algorithm combined with Lagrange Relaxation method (LR) for solving Unit Commitment (UC) problem. The proposed approach employs Chemo-tactic PSO-DE algorithm for optimal settings of Lagrange multipliers. It provides high-quality performance and reaches global solution and is a hybrid heuristic algorithm based on Bacterial Foraging O...

The Cooperative Particle Swarm Optimiser (CPSO) is a variant of the Particle Swarm Optimiser (PSO) that splits the problem vector, for example a neural network weight vector, across several swarms. This paper investigates the influence that the number of swarms used (also called the split factor) has on the training performance of a Product Unit Neural Network. Results are presented, comparing ...

Chaotic catfish particle swarm optimization (C-CatfishPSO) is a novel optimization algorithm proposed in this paper. C-CatfishPSO introduces chaotic maps into catfish particle swarm optimization (CatfishPSO), which increase the search capability of CatfishPSO via the chaos approach. Simple CatfishPSO relies on the incorporation of catfish particles into particle swarm optimization (PSO). The in...

Artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, one of the swarm intelligence algorithms, has been proposed for continuous optimization, inspired intelligent behaviors of real honey bee colony. For the optimization problems having binary structured solution space, the basic ABC algorithm should be modified because its basic version is proposed for solving continuous optimization problems. In this study,...

The control of nonlinear chaotic system and the estimation of parameters is a vital issue in nonlinear science. Studies on parameter estimation for chaotic systems have been investigated recently. A variant of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) known as Chaotic Multi Swarm Particle Swarm Optimization (CMS-PSO) is proposed which is inspired from the metaphor of ecological co-habitation of species...
