Abstract Energy management carried in a power system by configuration process is a difficult activity. So, reconfiguration has been introduced to solve this problem. Numerous optimization topologies have been utilized to solve this problem so far. However, they exhibit some drawbacks such as convergence, etc. Hence to overcome this issue, this work formulated a new hybrid optimization topology Genetic Algorithm Enabled Particle Swarm Optimization (PSOGA) to solve the energy configuration problem with low power loss in the Distribution System (DS). The proposed topology’s effectiveness was evaluated on the IEEE 33 bus Distribution System, and the results were compared to methods reported… More >

Abstract This paper presents a novel method of a secured card-less Automated Teller Machine (ATM) authentication based on the three bio-metrics measures. It would help in the identification and authorization of individuals and would provide robust security enhancement. Moreover, it would assist in providing identification in ways that cannot be impersonated. To the best of our knowledge, this method of Biometric_ fusion way is the first ATM security algorithm that utilizes a fusion of three biometric features of an individual such as Fingerprint, Face, and Retina simultaneously for recognition and authentication. These biometric images have been collected as input data for… More >

Abstract At present, the restructured electricity market has been a prominent research area and attracted attention. The motivation of the restructuring in the power system is to introduce the competition at various levels and to generate a correct economic signal to reduce the generation cost. As a result, it is required to have an effective price scheme to deliver useful information about the power. The pricing mechanism is dependent on the demand at the load level, the generator bids, and the limits of the transmission network. To address the congestion charges, Locational Marginal Pricing (LMP) is utilized in restructured electricity markets.… More >

Abstract In this paper, a hybrid model based on sooty tern optimization algorithm (STOA) is proposed to optimize the parameters of the support vector machine (SVM) and identify the best feature sets simultaneously. Feature selection is an essential process of data preprocessing, and it aims to find the most relevant subset of features. In recent years, it has been applied in many practical domains of intelligent systems. The application of SVM in many fields has proved its effectiveness in classification tasks of various types. Its performance is mainly determined by the kernel type and its parameters. One of the most challenging… More >

Abstract This article presents a systematic research methodology of modular design for conceptual auto body frame by hybrid optimization method. A modified graph-based decomposition optimization algorithm is utilized to generate an optimal BIW assembly topo model composed of “potential modules”. The consistency constraint function in collaborative optimization is extended to maximize the commonality of modules and minimize the performance loss of all car types in the same product family simultaneously. A novel screening method is employed to select both “basic structures” and “reinforcement” modules based on the dimension optimization of the manufacturing elements and the optimal assembly mode; this allows for… More >
