Interacting with a random environment, Learning Automata (LAs) are automata that, generally, have the task of learning the optimal action based on responses from the environment. Distinct from the traditional goal of Learning Automata to select only the optimal action out of a set of actions, this paper considers a multiple-action selection problem and proposes a novel class of Learning Automata for selecting an optimal subset of actions. Their objective is to identify the optimal subset: the top k out of r actions. Based on conventional continuous pursuit and discretized pursuit learning schemes, this paper introduces four pursuit learning schemes for selecting the optimal subset, called continuous equal pursuit, discretized equal pursuit, continuous unequal pursuit and discretized unequal pursuit learning schemes, respectively. In conjunction with a reward-inaction learning paradigm, the above four schemes lead to four versions of pursuit Learning Automata for selecting the optimal subset. The simulation results present a quantitative comparison between them.

This paper studies the semi-global leader-following consensus problem for a group of linear systems in the presence of both actuator position and rate saturation. Each follower agent in the group is described by a general linear system subject to simultaneous actuator position and rate saturation. We construct a low gain based linear state feedback control law for each follower agent and show that semi-global leader-following consensus can be achieved by using these control laws when the communication topology among follower agents is a connected undirected graph and the leader is a neighbor of at least one follower. Simulation results illustrate the theoretical results.

Modern power system is a hybrid power system, which contains renewable power plants. In those power plants, wind farm has shown the world's fastest rate of growth. The reported researches about decentralized coordinated control of power system are all based on synchronous generator(SG). It is not suitable that applying this decentralized-coordinated method to a hybrid power system for that the wind-generated energy capacity has been reached a considerable level. Combining correlative measurement modeling and multiple model predictive control, this paper proposes a decentralized coordinated multiple model predictive control(DCM-MPC) for a hybrid wind-thermal power(HWP) system. The transient problems of wind power integration are discussed subsequently. A simple, generic HWP system is used to illustrate the contributions. The results show that the proposed DCM-MPC not only provides an accurate tracking performance, but also improves transient stability of the HWP.

A Bayesian optimization algorithm (BOA) belongs to estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs). It is characterized by combining a Bayesian network and evolutionary algorithms to solve nearly decomposable optimization problems. BOA is less popularly applied to solve high dimensionality complex optimization problems. A key reason is that the cost of training all dimensions by BOA becomes expensive with the increase of problem dimensionality. Since data are relatively sparse in a high dimensional space, even though BOA can train all dimensions simultaneously, the interdependent relations between different dimensions are difficult to learn. Its search ability is thus significantly reduced. In this paper, we propose a team of Bayesian optimization algorithms (TBOA) to search and learn dimensionality. TBOA consists of multiple BOAs, in which each BOA corresponds to a dimension of the solution domain and it is responsible for the search of this dimension's value region. The proposed TBOA is used to solve the real problem of task assignment in heterogeneous computing systems. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the computational cost of the overall training in TBOA is decreased very significantly while keeping high solution accuracy.

This paper revisits the problem of estimating the domain of attraction for systems with saturation *** divide the input space into several regions. In one of these regions, none of the inputs saturate. In each of the remaining regions, there is a unique input that saturates everywhere with the time-derivative of its saturated signal being zero. These special properties of the inputs in different regions of the input space are combined with an existing piecewise quadratic Lyapunov functions that contains the information of input saturation to arrive at a set of less conservative stability conditions, from which a larger level set of the piecewise quadratic Lyapunov function can be obtained as an estimate of the domain of *** results indicate that the proposed approach has the ability to obtain a significantly larger estimate of the domain of attraction than the existing methods.

In this paper, a novel real-coded genetic algorithm is presented to generate offspring towards a promising polygon field with k+1 vertex, which represents a set of promising points in the entire population at a particular generation. A set of 19 test problems available in the global parameter optimization literature is used to test the performance of the proposed real-coded genetic algorithms. Several performance comparisons with five significant real-coded genetic algorithms, three state-of-the-art differential evolution algorithms and three others significant evolutionary computing techniques are performed. The comparative study shows the proposed approach is statistically significantly better than or at least comparable to twelve significant evolutionary computing techniques over a test suite of 19 benchmark functions.

In this paper, we consider the control of large-scale processes with both input and state couplings. A distributed model predictive control(MPC) strategy for tracking based on the reference trajectories is presented. The proposed distributed MPC strategy requires decomposing a large-scale system into several smaller ones and solving convex optimization problems independently. Distributed MPC tracking strategies for unconstrained and constrained processes are presented, respectively. An iterative algorithm is presented to coordinate the distributed MPC controllers. The proposed algorithm is applied to a four-tank process to demonstrate the effectiveness.
