An efficient line-search modified bat algorithm (EMBA) is proposed to solve large-scale global optimisation problems. A balance between exploration and exploitation abilities is achieved. Firstly, a line search to an accurate step size of a particle towards the global optimum is presented. The generated step size depends on the proximity of the particle to the global optimum and it is directly proportional to the dimension of a problem. This proportion makes EMBA capable to handle the high probability of an explosion in the initial values of objective functions in large-scale optimisation problems. Secondly, the velocity of a particle is clamped within pre-defined boundaries and penalised, if necessary, to ensure that both the velocity and position of a particle are within their boundaries. These modifications combined make EMBA able to converge to the global optimum in a few iterations. The experimental results show the efficiency of EMBA when comparing with well-established algorithms.

Unmanned aerial vehicles have a wide range of applications. An intelligent optimization algorithm based on the traditional bat algorithm (BA) is investigated in this paper for UAV flight path planning in a static complex environment. The primary goal of this work is to develop a safer flight path while considering the feasibility of the UAV and the requirements for safe operation. This research proposes an improved spherical coordinate and truncated average stable strategy-based bat optimization algorithm (TMS-SBA). The algorithm uses the UAV's motion space to encode the operator, and by substituting a new bat for the worst of the old one after each iteration to increase population diversity, the algorithm can converge quickly in a complex environment while maintaining stable operation. In addition, the flight path is smoothly generated by using B-spline curves to make the planned path suitable for UAV. MATLAB simulation experiments show that, compared with other traditional swarm intelligent algorithms, TMS-SBA can successfully generate feasible and effective optimal solutions in complex environments and plan shorter, safer, and more accessible flight paths for UAV.

bat algorithm, is an evolutionary computation technique based on the echolocation behaviour of microbats while looking for their prey. It is used to perform global optimization. It was developed by Xin-She Yang in 2010. Since then, it has extensively been applied in various optimization problems because of its simple structure and robust performance. Continuous, discrete, or binary, many variants were proposed over the last few years, with applications to solve real-world cases in different fields. Yet, it has one major drawback: its premature convergence due to a lack in its exploration ability. In this paper, we introduce a selection-based improvement and three other modifications to the standard version of this metaheuristic in order to enhance the diversification and intensification capabilities of the algorithm. The newly proposed method has been then tested on 20 standard benchmark functions and the CEC2005 benchmark suit. Some non-parametric statistical tests were also used to compare the New bat algorithm with other algorithms, and results indicate that the new method is very competitive and outperforms some of the state-of-the-art algorithms.

As the development of photovoltaic (PV) power generation continuously accelerated the total installed capacity of PV, the traditional static load model is difficult to meet the needs of the power grid with the increasing penetration of PV. And the dynamic model of grid-connected PV power generation is complicated and there are plenty parameters need to be identified, so the dynamic model of grid-connected PV power generation are extremely challenging to apply in wide-area power system. In this paper, a discrete-time equivalent model of PV (PDEM) is established based on the third-order dynamic differential equation of the PV power generation system and the parameters of the PDEM are identified using the least squares (LS) and the bat algorithm (BA). Besides, the dynamic characteristics of the PV power generation grid connected system with different permeability and the fitting residuals of the two methods is analyzed in the IEEE14-bus system incorporated into the PV system. The applicability of the PDEM is verified by setting short circuit grounding fault and changing the PV permeability and voltage dip. The simulation results demonstrate that the PDEM has a strong adaptability and good applicability in the case of high PV permeability with a wide application. And the applicability of the BA in identification of PDEM are given in this paper. (c) 2023 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Path generation means generating a path or a set of paths so that the generated path meets specified properties or constraints. To our knowledge, generating a path with the performance evaluation value of the path within a given value interval has received scant attention. This paper subtly formulates the path generation problem as an optimization problem by designing a reasonable fitness function, adapts the Markov decision process with reward model into a weighted digraph by eliminating multiple edges and non-goal dead nodes, constructs the path by using a priority-based indirect coding scheme, and finally modifies the bat algorithm with heuristic to solve the optimization problem. Simulation experiments were carried out for different objective functions, population size, number of nodes, and interval ranges. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed algorithm.

Recently gravity data modeling plays an important role in the study of volcanic activity and geothermal investigation. Generally, gravity data modeling assumes the subsurface either homogenous or spatially variable densities within modeled source rocks and surrounding sediments. As a result, the subsurface geothermal and volcanic goals and targets are included and validated using simple-geometric sources in gravity data modeling. The bat algorithm, which is considered one of the most recently, developed metaheuristic algorithms in geophysics applications, permits to discovery and delineation of the source's parameters. Here, we presented the contribution of the bat algorithm technique in elucidating 2D gravity profiles for geothermal exploration and volcanic activity cases. The bat algorithm is based on the echo-location behavior of bats to perform global optimization. The bat optimization algorithm is applied to 2D gravity data to estimate the source's parameters such as depth, origin location, amplitude factor, and geometric shape of the causative buried body. The stability and efficiency of the introduced optimizing algorithm were checked to different synthetic cases, i.e., for model 1, which represents a horizontal cylinder model, and model 2 represents a multi-sources effect. Furthermore, the successful applications of the proposed algorithm for discovering the geothermal and volcanic activities in Japan and India were have presented. The obtained results are in good agreement with the available geological, geophysical, and borehole information.

Six-phase transmission lines have the capability to address the continually evolving power demand. It allows upgrading the power transfer capability of the prevailing three-phase double circuit line without major changes in the transmission corridors. However, the operational performance of any six-phase system is highly dependent on its protection scheme. The possibility of larger number of faults in six-phase system complicates the protection task. Furthermore, the harmonics intrusion arising because of nonlinear loading compromises the reliability of the conventional threshold-based protection schemes. In this regard, this article addresses the above-mentioned challenges by developing a protection scheme based on the hybrid frameworks of bat algorithm and stacked sparse autoencoder-deep neural network (SAE-DNN). To overcome the limitation of SAE-DNN regarding optimal selection of architecture and tuning parameters, the selection task has been formulated as an optimization problem and solved using bat algorithm. The use of raw voltage and current signals as input to the SAE-DNN reduces the overall complexity of the protection scheme. The efficacy of the proposed scheme has been validated for all 120 types of faults under varying operating, loading and fault scenarios. Furthermore, the proposed scheme has been validated for practical settings by performing real-time simulations on OPAL-RT digital simulator.

To deal with multiple constraints of vehicle active suspension system (ASS) including road handling and passenger safety, this paper presents an optimal linear quadratic regulator (LQR) approach which employs bat algorithm (BA) for selection of optimal state and input penalty matrices of LQR. We formulate the conflicting control objectives of ASS, namely, ride comfort and passenger safety as a multi-constraint optimization problem and employ the BA for weight selection of LQR. The key advantage of the proposed approach is that the local optima problem is avoided by utilizing the frequency tuning and random walk technique in BA. The performance of the proposed approach is experimentally tested using hardware in loop (HIL) testing on a quarter car ASS for realistic road profiles. Moreover, the performance is benchmarked against grey wolf optimization tuned LQR. Experimental results assessed based on ISO 2631 standards highlight the significant improvement in the ride comfort and passenger safety.
