This study proposed fuzzy-based adaptive method for crossover rate (CR) values to improve the convergence rate of differentialevolution (DE) algorithms. The proposed method decides the CR values according to two factors of the evolutionary environment, the change rate of solution of center of solutions and the density of each dimension. The proposed DE algorithm is tested by the CEC2015 benchmark suits and compared with fuzzy adaptive differentialevolution (FADE). The experimental results showed that the proposed method really improved performance for 11 of 15 evaluated functions in 10, 30, and 50 dimensions and enhanced the convergence.

Due to the absorption and scattering of light in underwater environment, underwater images have poor contrast and resolution. This situation generally causes to a color, which became more dominant than the other ones. Because of that, analyzing underwater images effectively and identifying any object under the water has become a difficult task. In this paper, an underwater enhancement approach by using differential evolution algorithm was proposed. In the approach, a contrast enhancement in the RGB space is done. By using the approach, both scattering and absorption effects are reduced.

Load Frequency Control (LFC) for any power generating station is a subject of great concern for power system researchers. With the changes of load demand, frequency starts fluctuating which results in deviation in tie line power flow and frequency deviation at consumer end. To overcome this problem, many control techniques have been adopted. In early days fixed value integral/proportional-integral control, Optimal Control, Quantitative feedback theory, pole placement etc. methods were applied. In recent times, neural network, fuzzy logic, genetic algorithm controllers are replacing the conventional techniques. All the control techniques are used to find the optimal values of the PID/PI controller gain parameters (K_p, K_i, K_d) for which system stability is confirmed with minimum of Area Control Error (ACE). differentialevolution (DE) which is a newer branch of genetic algorithms has been successfully applied in this problem. In this paper DE based PI controller has been implemented for Hydro-Thermal power plants to find out the optimal value of gain parameters for system stability. Nonlinearity has been considered in governor part of the thermal area for practical scenario. 1% step load changes have been applied to both areas simultaneously and individually to confirm its performance. Desired set of controller gain parameters (K_p, K_i) are selected based on eigenvalue and minimum value of Objective Function. All simulations are done in the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment.

Absolute value equations Ax - vertical bar x vertical bar = b are non-differentiable hard problems. Many linear and quadratic programming problems can ultimately be converted into absolute value equation problems so research on solving an absolute value problem has important practical and theoretical significance. An improved adaptive differential evolution algorithm was proposed to solve the absolute value equations in this paper. The algorithm combined global search ability and local search ability, using an adaptive quadratic mutation operation and crossover operation. Numerical results show that the improved algorithm can quickly find the solutions of these equations.

In this article, different combinations of geometrical dimensions of a rectangular space radiator have been estimated using an inverse method. The solution procedure is based on the real-coded differentialevolution (DE) optimization algorithm. Electronic equipments and aircraft power plants such as gas turbines need to be consistently cooled for safe operation and due to absence of air medium in space, the heat transfer occurs mainly by surface radiation. The required rate of heat to be dissipated is directly dependent upon the prevailing temperature distribution. Therefore, in this work, the estimation of parameters has been done for satisfying a predefined and simulated surface temperature profile on a space radiator. The temperature distribution used in the present inverse simulation study has been calculated and updated using the fourth order Runge-Kutta method and DE algorithm, respectively. Results have been validated against the existing literature. The present work reveals many possible combinations of the space radiator to attain a given temperature distribution. This offers the opportunity and flexibility to select a space radiator to achieve the required heat transfer rate for cooling various electronic equipments and power generating units typically for space applications.

Range image registration is used to align two or more three dimensional (3D) point sets into a common coordinate system. In the matching process, however, the influence of the resolution of 3D scans is ignored generally. In this paper, an enhanced differentialevolution (DE) algorithm is proposed to align two different scaling 3D point sets. Specifically, Generalized Procrustes Analysis (GPA) method is employed to accelerate the DE in population initialization. In addition, a novel mutation technique is introduced to improve the accuracy for registration. The proposed method can evaluate all of the transformation parameters synchronously and it is effective for both isotropic and anisotropic scaling registration problem. Experiment results reveal that the proposed algorithm is much superior to other methods in terms of accuracy and robustness for scaling registration problem.

The performance of the kernel based techniques depends on the selection of kernel parameters. That's why;suitable parameter selection is an important problem for many kernel based techniques. This article presents a novel technique to learn the kernel parameters in kernel Fukunaga-Koontz Transform based (KFKT) classifier. The proposed approach determines the appropriate values of kernel parameters through optimizing an objective function constructed based on discrimination ability of KFKT. For this purpose we have utilized differential evolution algorithm (DEA). The new technique overcomes some disadvantages such as high time consumption existing in the traditional cross-validation method, and it can be utilized in any type of data. The experiments for target detection applications on the hyperspectral images verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper proposes the application of differentialevolution (DE) algorithm for the optimal tuning of proportional-integral (PI) controller designed to improve the small signal dynamic response of a stand-alone solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) system. The small signal model of the study system is derived and considered for the controller design as the target here is to track small variations in SOFC load current. Two PI controllers are incorporated in the feedback loops of hydrogen and oxygen partial pressures with an aim to improve the small signal dynamic responses. The controller design problem is formulated as the minimization of an eigenvalue based objective function where the target is to find out the optimal gains of the PI controllers in such a way that the discrepancy of the obtained and desired eigenvalues are minimized. Eigenvalue and time domain simulations are presented for both open-loop and closed loop systems. To test the efficacy of DE over other optimization tools, the results obtained with DE are compared with those obtained by particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm and invasive weed optimization (IWO) algorithm. Three different types of load disturbances are considered for the time domain based results to investigate the performances of different optimizers under different sorts of load variations. Moreover, non-parametric statistical analyses, namely, one sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test and paired sample t test are used to identify the statistical advantage of one optimizer over the other for the problem under study. The presented results suggest the supremacy of DE over PSO and IWO in finding the optimal solution.

Dimensional synthesis is one of the most difficult issues in the field of parallel robots with actuation redundancy. To deal with the optimal design of a redundantly actuated parallel robot used for ankle rehabilitation, a methodology of dimensional synthesis based on multi-objective optimization is presented. First, the dimensional synthesis of the redundant parallel robot is formulated as a nonlinear constrained multi-objective optimization problem. Then four objective functions, separately reflecting occupied space, input/output transmission and torque performances, and multi-criteria constraints, such as dimension, interference and kinematics, are defined. In consideration of the passive exercise of plantar/dorsiflexion requiring large output moment, a torque index is proposed. To cope with the actuation redundancy of the parallel robot, a new output transmission index is defined as well. The multi-objective optimization problem is solved by using a modified differentialevolution(DE) algorithm, which is characterized by new selection and mutation strategies. Meanwhile, a special penalty method is presented to tackle the multi-criteria constraints. Finally, numerical experiments for different optimization algorithms are implemented. The computation results show that the proposed indices of output transmission and torque, and constraint handling are effective for the redundant parallel robot; the modified DE algorithm is superior to the other tested algorithms, in terms of the ability of global search and the number of non-dominated solutions. The proposed methodology of multi-objective optimization can be also applied to the dimensional synthesis of other redundantly actuated parallel robots only with rotational movements.

Moreover, the correlation between bands is used as a constraint condition. The differential evolution algorithm is adopted during the search of optimal band combination. In addition, the game theory is introduced into the band selection to coordinate the potential conflict of searching the optimal band combination using information and class separability these two evaluation criteria.
