The proposed hybrid method is tested on IEEE 5-bus, 14-bus, 30-bus, 57-bus and 118-bus standard test systems along with 11-bus and 13-bus ill-conditioned test systems under different simulated conditions and the results are compared with the same, obtained using standard weighted least square state estimation (WLS-SE) technique and general particle swarm optimization (GPSO) based technique. The performance of the proposed optimization technique for SE, in terms of minimum value of the objective function and standard deviations of minimum values obtained in 100 runs, is found better as compared to the GPSO based technique. The statistical error analysis also shows the superiority of the proposed PSO-DE based technique over the other two techniques.展开更多

In the PSODE, control parameters are encoded to be a symbiotic individual of original individual,and each original individual has its own symbiotic individual. Differential evolution( DE) operators are used to evolve the original population. And,particle swarm optimization( PSO) is applied to co-evolving the symbiotic population. Thus,with the evolution of the original population in PSODE, the symbiotic population is dynamically and self-adaptively adjusted and the realtime optimum control parameters are obtained. The proposed algorithm is compared with some DE variants on nine functions. The results show that the average performance of PSODE is the best.展开更多

A chaotic map with greater Lyapunov exponent is introduced into PSO for balancing the exploration and exploitation abilities of the proposed algorithm. A DE operator is used to help PSO jump out of stagnation. Twelve benchmark function tests from CEC2005 and eight real world opti- mization problems from CEC2011 are used to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm. The results show that statistically, the proposed hybrid algorithm has performed consistently well compared to other hybrid variants. Moreover, the simulation results on ADRC parameter optimization show that the optimized ADRC has better robustness and adaptability for nonlinear discrete-time systems with time delays.展开更多

In the hybrid denoted by DEPSO, each individual in one generation chooses its evolution method, DE or PSO, in a statistical learning way. The choice depends on the relative success ratio of the two methods in a previous learning period. The proposed DEPSO is compared with its PSO and DE parents, two advanced DE variants one of which is suggested by the originators of DE, two advanced PSO variants one of which is acknowledged as a recent standard by PSO community, and also a previous DEPSO. Benchmark tests demonstrate that the DEPSO is more competent for the global optimization of multimodal functions due to its high optimization quality.展开更多
