Coronary artery disease (CAD) is currently a prevalent disease from which many people suffer. Early detection and treatment could reduce the risk of heart attack. Currently, the golden standard for the diagnosis of CAD is angiography, which is an invasive procedure. In this article, we propose an algorithm that uses data mining techniques, a fuzzy expert system, and the imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA), to make CAD diagnosis by a non-invasive procedure. The ICA is used to adjust the fuzzy membership functions. The proposed method has been evaluated with the Cleveland and Hungarian datasets. The advantage of this method, compared with others, is the interpretability. The accuracy of the proposed method is 94.92% by 11 rules, and the average length of 4. To compare the colonial competitive algorithm with other metaheuristic algorithms, the proposed method has been implemented with the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The results indicate that the colonial competition algorithm is more efficient than the PSO algorithm.

A new hybrid meta-heuristic optimization algorithm is presented for design of structures. The algorithm is based on the concepts of the charged system search (CSS) and the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms. The CSS is inspired by the Coulomb and Gauss's laws of electrostatics in physics, the governing laws of motion from the Newtonian mechanics, and the PSO is based on the swarm intelligence and utilizes the information of the best fitness historically achieved by the particles (local best) and by the best among all the particles (global best). In the new hybrid algorithm, each agent is affected by local and global best positions stored in the charged memory considering the governing laws of electrical physics. Three different types of structures are optimized as the numerical examples with the new algorithm. Comparison of the results of the hybrid algorithm with those of other meta-heuristic algorithms proves the robustness of the new algorithm.

Voltage sourced converter (VSC) based direct-current (DC) grid has the ability to control power flow flexibly and securely, thus it has become one of the most valid approaches in aspect of large-scale renewable power generation, oceanic island power supply and new urban grid construction. To solve the optimal power flow (OPF) problem in DC grid, an adaptive particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm based on fuzzy control theory is proposed in this paper, and the optimal operation considering both power loss and voltage quality is realized. Firstly, the fuzzy membership curve is used to transform two objectives into one, the fitness value of latest step is introduced as input of fuzzy controller to adjust the controlling parameters of PSO dynamically. The proposed strategy was applied in solving the power flow issue in six terminals DC grid model, and corresponding results are presented to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of proposed algorithm.

This paper includes a method for estimating the parameter of a synchronous generator and exciter using the modified particle swarm optimization. A solid round rotor synchronous generator and exciter have been modeled with the saturation function. They are regarded as state of being cooperative to a infinite bus. The behavior characteristic of all particles assigned to a parameter needs to be reflected in the PSO algorithm to fine out more close result to the optimal solution. The results of the simulation to estimate the parameters of the synchronous generator and exciter in the modified PSO algorithm are described.

This paper introduces an effectively optimized Fuzzy model identification by means of complex and nonlinear system applying PSO algorithm. In other words, we use PSO(Particle Swarm Optimization) for identification of Fuzzy model structure and parameter. PSO is an algorithm that follows a collaborative population-based search model. Each particle of swarm flies around in a multidimensional search space looking for the optimal solution. Then, Particles adjust their position according to their own and their neighboring-particles experience. This paper identifies the premise part parameters and the consequence structures that have many effects on Fuzzy system based on PSO. In the premise parts of the rules, we use triangular. Finally we evaluate the Fuzzy model that is widely used in the standard model of gas data and sew data.

This paper proposes an approach of Mult_HPSO based on the PC cluster system to reduce or remove the stagnation on an early convergence effect of PSO, reduce an execution time and improve a search ability on an optimal solution. Hybrid PSO(HPSO) is combines the PSO(Particle Swarm Optimization) with the mutation of conventional GA(Genetic Algorithm). The conventional PSO has operated a search process in a single swarm. However, Multi_PSO operates a search process through multiple swarms, which increments diversity of expected solutions and reduces the execution time. Multiple Swarms are composed of unsynchronized PC clusters. We apply to SCED(security constrained economic dispatch) problem, a nonlinear optimization problem, which considers line flow constraints and N-1 line contingency constraints. To consider N-1 line contingency in power system, we have chosen critical line contingency through a process of Screening and Selection based on PI(performace Index). We have applied to IEEE 118 bus system for verifying a usefulness of the proposed approaches.

본 연구는 다목적 입자군집최적화(Particle Swarm Optimization, PSO) 알고리즘을 SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool) 모형에 적용하여 자동보정 알고리즘의 적용 가능성을 평가하고자 한다. PSO 알고리즘은 Python을 활용해 다목적 함수를 고려할 수 있도록 새롭게 개발되었다. SWAT 모형의 유출 해석은 안성천의 공도 수위 관측소 상류유역($366.5km^2$)을 대상으로 하였으며, 공도 지점의 2000년부터 2017년까지의 일 유량 자료를 이용하여 검보정하였다. 모형을 위한 기상자료는 공도유역 주변 3개 기상관측소(수원, 천안, 이천)의 일별 강수량, 최고 및 최저기온, 평균 풍속, 상대습도 및 일사량을 구축하였다. SWAT 모형의 유출 해석은 결정계수(Coefficient of determination, $R^2$), RMSE(Root mean square error), Nash-Sutcliffe 모형효율계수(NSE) 및 IOA(index of agreement) 등을 활용하여, 기존 연구 결과와 PSO 알고리즘을 활용한 결과를 비교 분석하고자 한다. 본 연구에서 개발한 다목적 PSO 알고리즘을 활용한 SWAT모형의 유출 해석은 보다 높은 정확도를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 예상되며, Python으로 개발되어 SWAT모형 이외에도 널리 적용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The present paper presents an optimal capacitor placement (OCP) algorithm for voltagestability enhancement. The OCP issue is represented using a mixed-integer problem and a highly nonlinear problem. The hybrid particle swarm optimization (HPSO) algorithm is proposed to solve the OCP problem. The HPSO algorithm combines the optimal power flow (OPF) with the primal-dual interior-point method (PDIPM) and ordinary PSO. It takes advantage of the global search ability of PSO and the very fast simulation running time of the OPF algorithm with PDIPM. In addition, OPF gives intelligence to PSO through the information provided by the dual variable of the OPF. Numerical results illustrate that the HPSO algorithm can improve the accuracy and reduce the simulation running time. Test results evaluated with the three-bus, New England 39-bus, and Korea Electric Power Corporation systems show the applicability of the proposed algorithm.
