슬라이딩 모드를 가진 가변 구조 제어(VSC)는 비선형 시스템의 현대제어에서 중요하고 흥미로운 주제이다. 그러나, VSC에서의 불연속적인 제어 법칙은 실제로 바람직하지 못한 떨림 현상을 발생시킨다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 신경망 슬라이딩 곡면을 갖는 VSC 구조를 제안한다. 불연속 제어 법칙을 해결하기 위해 경계층을 가진 신경망 슬라이딩 곡면이 도입된다. 제안된 제어기는 보편적인 VSC의 떨림 현상 문제를 해결할 수 있다. 제안된 제어 구조의 효과는 시뮬레이션을 통해 증명하였다.

It is an interesting area in the field of artifical intelligence to find an analytic model of cooperative structure for multiagent system accomplishing a given task. Usually it is difficult to design controllers for multi-agent systems without a comprehensive knowledge about the system. One of the way to overcome this limitation is to implement an evolutionary approach to design the controllers. This paper introduces the use of a genetic algorithm to discover a fuzzy logic controller with rules that govern emergent agents solving a pursuit problem in a continuous world. Simulation results indicate that, given the complexity of the problem, an evolutionary approach to find the fuzzy logic controller seems to be promising.

Determining the layout of temporary facilities that support construction activities at a site is an important planning activity, as layout can significantly affect cost, quality of work, safety, and other aspects of the project. The construction site layout problem involves difficult combinatorial optimization. Recently, various artificial intelligence(AI)-based algorithms have been applied to solving many complex optimization problems, including neural networks(NN), genetic algorithms(GA), and swarm intelligence(SI) which relates to the collective behavior of social systems such as honey bees and birds. This study proposes a site facility layout optimization algorithm based on self-organizing maps(SOM). Computational experiments are carried out to justify the efficiency of the proposed method and compare it with particle swarm optimization(PSO). The results show that the proposed algorithm can be efficiently employed to solve the problem of site layout.

This paper presents a fuzzy-GA method for the allocation and operation of dispersed generator systems(DGs) based on load model in composite distribution systems. Groups of each individual load model consist of residential, industrial, commercial, official and agricultural load. The problem formulation considers an objective to reduce power loss of distribution systems and the constraints such as the number or total capacity of DGs and the deviation of the bus voltage. The main idea of solving fuzzy goal programming is to transform the original objective function and constraints into the equivalent multi-objectives functions with fuzzy sets to evaluate their imprecise nature for the criterion of power loss minimization, the number or total capacity of DGs and the bus voltage deviation, and then solve the problem using genetic algorithm. The method proposed is applied to IEEE 12 bus and 33 bus test systems to demonstrate its effectiveness. .

This paper describes the secant method for solving the economic dispatch (ED) problem with generator constraints and transmission losses. The ED problem is an important optimization problem in the economic operation of a power system. The proposed algorithm involves selection of minimum and maximum incremental costs (lambda values) and then the evaluation of optimal lambda at required power demand is done by secant method. The proposed algorithm has been tested on a power system having 6, 15, and 40 generating units. Studies have been made on the proposed method to solve the ED problem by taking 120 and 200 units with generator constraints. Simulation results of the proposed approach were compared in terms of solution quality, convergence characteristics, and computation efficiency with conventional methods such as lambda iterative method, heuristic methods such as genetic algorithm, and meta-heuristic methods like particle swarm optimization. It is observed from different case studies that the proposed method provides qualitative solutions with less computational time compared to various methods available in the literature.

The optimal power flow(OPF) problem was introduced by Carpentier in 1962 as a network constrained economic dispatch problem. Since then, the OPF problem has been intensively studied and widely used in power system operation and planning. In these days, OPF is becoming more and more important in the deregulation environment of power pool and there is an urgent need of faster solution technique for on-line application. To solve OPF problem, many heuristic optimization methods have been developed, such as Genetic Algorithm(GA), Evolutionary Programming(EP), Evolution Strategies(ES), and Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO). Especially, PSO algorithm is a newly proposed population based heuristic optimization algorithm which was inspired by the social behaviors of animals. However, population based heuristic optimization methods require higher computing time to find optimal point. This shortcoming is overcome by a straightforward parallel processing of PSO algorithm. The developed parallel PSO algorithm is implemented on a PC cluster system with 6 Intel Pentium IV 2GHz processors. The proposed approach has been tested on the IEEE 30-bus system. The results showed that computing time of parallelized PSO algorithm can be reduced by parallel processing without losing the quality of solution.

본 논문에서는 유전 알고리즘을 사용하는 퍼지 교통 제어기를 제안한다. 일반적인 퍼지 교통 제어기들은 사람에 의해 생성된 소속함수들을 사용한다. 그러나 이 방식은 퍼지 제어기를 설계하는데 최적의 해를 보장하지 못한다. 유전 알고리즘은 휴리스틱적인 특정 영역의 지식을 필요로 하는 최적화 문제의 좋은 해결 방법이다. 좋은 성능을 보이는 퍼지 소속함수를 찾기 위해서 적합도 함수가 정의되어야 한다. 그러나 교통 제어에서 적합도 함수를 수치 표현으로 정의하는 것은 쉽지 않다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 교통 시뮬레이터에 의해 얻어지는 성능척도로써 해의 적합도를 결정하는 시뮬레이션 접근법을 사용한다. 제안된 방법은 기존의 퍼지 제어기들에 비하여 우수한 성능을 보여준다.

The term "constructability" in regard to cast-in-place concrete construction refers mainly to the ease of reinforcing steel placement. Bar congestion complicates steel placement, hinders concrete placement and as a result leads to improper consolidation of concrete around bars affecting the integrity of the structure. In this paper, a multi-objective approach, based on the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) is developed for optimal design of reinforced concrete cantilever retaining walls, considering minimization of the economic cost and reinforcing bar congestion as the objective functions. The structural model to be optimized involves 35 design variables, which define the geometry, the type of concrete grades, and the reinforcement used. The seismic response of the retaining walls is investigated using the well-known Mononobe-Okabe analysis method to define the dynamic lateral earth pressure. The results obtained from numerical application of the proposed framework demonstrate its capabilities in solving the present multi-objective optimization problem.

Due to threats caused by social disasters, operating surveillance devices are essential for social safety. CCTV, infrared cameras and other surveillance equipment are used to observe threats. This research proposes a method for searching for the optimum location of surveillance sensors. A GA (Genetic Algorithm) was used, since this algorithm is one of the most reasonable and efficient methods for solving complex non-linear problems. The sensor specifications, a DEM (Digital Elevation Model) and VITD (Vector Product Interim Terrain Data) maps were used for input data. We designed a chromosome using the sensor pixel location, and used elitism selection and uniform crossover for searching final solution. A fitness function was derived by the number of detected pixels on the borderline and the sum of the detection probability in the surveillance zone. The results of a 5-sensor and a 10-sensor were compared and analyzed.

본 논문은 새로운 무어 머신을 복제하는 진화 하드웨어를 제안하였다. 제안된 진화 하드웨어는 FPGA 상에서 효과적인 파이프라인, 병렬처리와 Handshaking을 구현했다. 유전자 알고리즘은 다양한 응용 분야의 NP 문제를 해결하는 방법으로 알려져 있으나 긴 계산 시간이 요구되기 때문에 하드웨어 유전자 알고리즘이 최근 관심사가 되고 있다. 기존의 하드웨어 유전자 알고리즘은 고정 길이의 염색체를 사용하지만 제안된 진화 하드웨어는 가변 길이의 염색체를 사용한다. 실험 결과는 제안된 진화 하드웨어가 무어 머신을 복제하는데 있어 적합함을 알 수 있다.
