Symbolic Interpretation Of Artificial Neural Networks Using Genetic Algorithms, Dounia Yedjour, Abdelkader Benyettou, Hayat Yedjour Jan 2018

Symbolic Interpretation Of Artificial Neural Networks Using Genetic Algorithms, Dounia Yedjour, Abdelkader Benyettou, Hayat Yedjour

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The knowledge acquired during the learning of artificial neural networks (ANNs) is coded as values in synaptic weights, which makes their interpretations difficult, hence the name of the black box. The aim of this work is to provide a comprehensible interpretation of the ANN's decisions by extracting symbolic rules. We improve the performance of our extraction algorithm by combining the ANN with a genetic algorithm. Misleading rules whose support and confidence values are less than fixed thresholds are removed and, as a result, the comprehensibility is improved. The extracted rules are evaluated and compared with other works. The results show …


Multiobjective Aerodynamic Optimization Of A Microscale Ducted Wind Turbineusing A Genetic Algorithm, Emre Alpman Jan 2018

Multiobjective Aerodynamic Optimization Of A Microscale Ducted Wind Turbineusing A Genetic Algorithm, Emre Alpman

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A two-objective aerodynamic optimization of a microscale ducted wind turbine was performed using a genetic algorithm. Two different fitness function pairs were considered for this purpose. In the first alternative the algorithm maximized the power produced while minimizing the drag force at a given wind speed and tip speed ratio. In the second alternative, however, the annual energy production was maximized while minimizing the maximum drag force developed between the cut-in and cut-off wind speeds. Computational uid dynamics solutions performed for selected best designs showed that optimizations performed using the second alternative yielded better turbines, which could produce more power …


Two-Area Load Frequency Control With Redox Ow Battery Using Intelligentalgorithms In A Restructured Scenario, Lakshmi Dhandapani, Fathima Peer, Ranganath Muthu Jan 2018

Two-Area Load Frequency Control With Redox Ow Battery Using Intelligentalgorithms In A Restructured Scenario, Lakshmi Dhandapani, Fathima Peer, Ranganath Muthu

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Load frequency control (LFC) is an essential aspect of power system dynamics. This paper focuses on the optimization of LFC for a two-area deregulated power system under different scenarios. A recent nature-inspired ower pollination algorithm (FPA), based on the pollination process of plants, is used to tune the proportional integral (PI) controller parameters of LFC for the global minima solution. FPA is compared with a genetic algorithm, particle swarm optimization, and a conventional PI controller. During large load disturbance in the areas, controllers are incapable of reducing frequency deviations and tie-line power oscillations due to the slow response of the …
