Therefore, the stochastic multi-objective hydrothermal generation scheduling problem is formulated with explicit recognition of uncertainties in the system production cost coefficients and system load, which are treated as random variable. Fuzzy methodology has been exploited for solving a decision making problem involving multiplicity of objectives and selection criterion for best compromised solution. A real-coded genetic algorithm with arithmetic-average-bound-blend crossover and wavelet mutation operator is applied to solve short-term variable-head hydrothermal scheduling problem. Initial feasible solution has been obtained by implementing the random heuristic search. The search is performed within the operating generation limits. Equality constraints that satisfy the demand during each time interval are considered by introducing a slack thermal generating unit for each time interval. Whereas the equality constraint which satisfies the consumption of available water to its full extent for the whole scheduling period is considered by introducing slack hydro generating unit for a particular time interval. Operating limit violation by slack hydro and slack thermal generating unit is taken care using exterior penalty method. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated on two sample systems.展开更多

The efficient numerical optimization algorithm to estimate more than 100 real-coded parameters should be developed for this purpose. New real-coded genetic algorithm (RCGA), the combination of AREX (adaptive real-coded ensemble crossover) with JGG (just generation gap), have applied to the inference of genetic interactions involving more than 100 parameters related to the interactions with using experimentally observed time-course data. Compared with conventional RCGA, the combination of UNDX (unimodal normal distribution crossover) with MGG (minimal generation gap), new algorithm has shown the superiority with improving early convergence in the first stage of search and suppressing evolutionary stagnation in the last stage of search.展开更多
