This paper proposes an efficient hybrid approach for the fast and efficient MPPT in WECS. The system consists of an MPPT based control of IPMSG consisting of a hybrid Meta-heuristic algorithm. The hybrid Meta-heuristic algorithm presented in the proposed approach is the joined execution of both WOA and the ALO algorithm named as MWOAL. In the proposed approach, the WOA is considered to resolve the optimal gain parameters of the PI controller with a minimum error objective function based on the variation of direct and quadrature current parameters. Here, the searching behavior of the whales is modified by using the efficient ALO algorithm is known as modified WOAL MWOAL. The setpoint direct axis and the quadrature axis current parameters of the WECS are determined using the MPPT technique and the loss minimization approach based on the generator speed variation. Hence, the proposed scheme has improved the efficiency of the WECS. At that point, the performance of the proposed adaptive MPPT control of WECS is executed in the MATLAB/Simulink working platform and the execution is assessed using the existing techniques.

The hybrid power system is a combination of renewable energy power plants and conventional energy power plants. This integration causes power quality issues including poor settling times and higher transient contents. The main issue of such interconnection is the frequency variations caused in the hybrid power system. Load Frequency Controller (LFC) design ensures the reliable and efficient operation of the power system. The main function of LFC is to maintain the system frequency within safe limits, hence keeping power at a specific range. An LFC should be supported with modern and intelligent control structures for providing the adequate power to the system. This paper presents a comprehensive review of several LFC structures in a diverse configuration of a power system. First of all, an overview of a renewable energy-based power system is provided with a need for the development of LFC. The basic operation was studied in single-area, multi-area and multi-stage power system configurations. Types of controllers developed on different techniques studied with an overview of different control techniques were utilized. The comparative analysis of various controllers and strategies was performed graphically. The future scope of work provided lists the potential areas for conducting further research. Finally, the paper concludes by emphasizing the need for better LFC design in complex power system environments.

We consider the steady-state simulation output analysis problem for a process that satisfies a functional central limit theorem. We construct an estimator for the time-average variance constant that is based on excursions of a process above the minimum. The resulting estimator does not require a fixed run length, and the memory requirement can be dynamically bounded. Standardized time series methods based on excursions are also described.

To utilize images for metrology tasks distortion free images are required. If the optical setup doesn't allow to use low distortion optical elements, distorted images can subsequently be corrected by the means of software algorithms. In this publication such a procedure to correct radial distortion effects for a 3D light section sensor is presented. The calibration procedure was developed for a 3D metrology system but is based on processing of 2D image data. The selection of suitable calibration objects as well as the representation of the distortion effects by an appropriate correction function based on a Taylor series is explained in this publication. The correction procedure is executed by the means of an optimization algorithm and minimizes a merit function representing residual distortion errors. The presented procedure includes a distortion correction with an accuracy in the double-digit micrometer range for a wide angle lens.

The power voltage characteristics of a photovoltaic array under partially shaded conditions is highly non linear and it exhibits multiple local peaks and a global peak. The maximum power is harvested from the photovoltaic panel only when the global peak is tracked. Many control algorithms were proposed in the past decades to track maximum power especially during partially shaded conditions. However, the control algorithms are still facing problems like slow convergence, more oscillations during tracking, and complexity in implementation. etc. In this work, a single sensor hybrid MPPT algorithm for battery charging application is proposed. The hybrid algorithm is a combination of salp swarm algorithm and conventional perturb and observe technique and it uses only battery charging current for tracking the maximum power. The performance of the algorithm has been tested under uniform and partially shaded conditions using MATLAB simulation and hardware prototype. The obtained results are compared against single sensor based grey wolf algorithm and sine cosine algorithm. The results show fast and accurate tracking of maximum power under uniform and dynamic shaded conditions.

We study the problem of estimating the parameters (i.e., infection rate and recovery rate) governing the spread of epidemics in networks. Such parameters are typically estimated by measuring various characteristics (such as the number of infected and recovered individuals) of the infected populations over time. However, these measurements also incur certain costs, depending on the population being tested and the times at which the tests are administered. We thus formulate the epidemic parameter estimation problem as an optimization problem, where the goal is to either minimize the total cost spent on collecting measurements or to optimize the parameter estimates while remaining within a measurement budget. We show that these problems are NP-hard to solve in general and then propose approximation algorithms with performance guarantees. We validate our algorithms using numerical examples.

Incidents where water networks are contaminated with microorganisms or pollutants can result in a large number of infected or ill persons, and it is therefore important to quickly detect, localize and estimate the spread and source of the contamination. In many of today's water networks only limited measurements are available, but with the current internet of things trend the number of sensors is increasing and there is a need for methods that can utilize this information. Motivated by this fact, we address the problem of estimating the spread of pollution in a water network given measurements from a set of sensors. We model the water flow as a Markov chain, representing the system as a set of states where each state represents the amount of water in a specific part of the network, e.g., a pipe or a part of a pipe. Then we seek the most likely flow of the pollution given the expected water flow and the sensors observations. This is a large-scale optimization problem that can be formulated as a Schrodinger bridge problem with partial information, and we address this by exploiting the connection with the entropy regularized multimarginal optimal transport problem. The software EPANET is used to simulate the spread of pollution in the water network and will be used for testing the performance of the methodology.(c) 2023 The Author(s).

Transient chaotic neural networks (TCNNs) have shown promise in solving optimization problems but still suffer from slow convergence and being difficult to implement in hardware. In this paper, the HP memristor is introduced to a TCNN to develop a memristor-based transient chaotic neural network (MTCNN) model that is highly efficient, converges quickly, and has significant prospects for physical implementation. The proposed MTCNN makes full use of the nonlinearity and memory-related characteristics of memristors, and their conductance values are used as self-feedback connection weights that can be adjusted dynamically according to the annealing algorithm. The MTCNN model was applied to solve combinatorial optimization problems, including the channel assignment problem (CAP) of four cells and the traveling salesman problem (TSP) of 10 cities. In 500 runs, the MTCNN algorithm delivered a 5% higher optimal solution rate than the TCNN algorithm while using only 70% of its number of iterations in the CAP, and achieved a shorter average distance and a 40% higher convergence speed than the TCNN algorithm in the TSP.

While spin qubits based on gate-defined quantum dots have demonstrated very favorable properties for quantum computing, one remaining hurdle is the need to tune each of them into a good operating regime by adjusting the voltages applied to electrostatic gates. The automation of these tuning procedures is a necessary requirement for the operation of a quantum processor based on gate-defined quantum dots, which is yet to be fully addressed. We present an algorithm for the automated fine-tuning of quantum dots and demonstrate its performance on a semiconductor singlet-triplet qubit in GaAs. The algorithm employs a Kalman filter based on Bayesian statistics to estimate the gradients of the target parameters as a function of gate voltages, thus learning the system response. The algorithm's design is focused on the reduction of the number of required measurements. We experimentally demonstrate the ability to change the operation regime of the qubit within 3-5 iterations, corresponding to 10-15 min of lab-time. Published under license by AIP Publishing.

Human beings share the same community in which the usage of energy by fossil fuels leads to deterioration in the environment, typically global warming. When the temperature rises to the critical point and triggers the continual melting of permafrost, it can wreak havoc on the life of animals and humans. Solutions could include optimizing existing devices, systems, and platforms, as well as utilizing green energy as a replacement of non-renewable energy. In this special issue Artificial Intelligence for Smart and Sustainable Energy Systems and Applications, eleven (11) papers, including one review article, have been published as examples of recent developments. Guest editors also highlight other hot topics beyond the coverage of the published articles.
