Square Root Central Difference-Based Fastslam Approach Improved By Differential Evolution, Haydar Ankişhan, Fi̇kret Ari, Emre Öner Tartan, Ahmet Güngör Pakfi̇li̇z

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This study presents a new approach to improve the performance of FastSLAM. The aim of the study is to obtain a more robust algorithm for FastSLAM applications by using a Kalman filter that uses Stirling's polynomial interpolation formula. In this paper, some new improvements have been proposed; the first approach is the square root central difference Kalman filter-based FastSLAM, called SRCD-FastSLAM. In this method, autonomous vehicle (or robot) position, landmarks' position estimations, and importance weight calculations of the particle filter are provided by the SRCD-Kalman filter. The second approach is an improved version of the SRCD-FastSLAM in which particles are …

Power systems play a significant role in every aspect of our daily lives. Hence, their continuation without any interruption (or with the least duration of interruption due to faults or scheduled maintenances) is one of the key aims of electrical energy providers. As a result, electrical energy providers need to check in great detail the integrity of their power systems by performing regular contingency studies of the equipment involved. Among others, line and transformer outage simulations constitute an integral part of an electrical management system. Both accuracy and calculation speed depend on the branch outage model and/or the solution algorithms …


Short-Term Economic Emission Power Scheduling Of Hydrothermal Systems Using Improved Chaotic Hybrid Differential Evolution, Tahir Nadeem Malik, Salman Zafar, Saaqib Haroon Jan 2016

Short-Term Economic Emission Power Scheduling Of Hydrothermal Systems Using Improved Chaotic Hybrid Differential Evolution, Tahir Nadeem Malik, Salman Zafar, Saaqib Haroon

utilities to retain their generations within maximum allowable emission levels. Therefore, in present-day power system operations, the minimization of emission pollutants along with the total fuel cost has become an important aspect in short-term generation scheduling of hydrothermal power systems. This paper presents an improved hybrid approach based on the application of chaos theory in a differential evolution (DE) algorithm for the solution of this biobjective constrained optimization problem. In this proposed methodology, self-adjusted parameter setting in DE is obtained by using chaotic sequences. Secondly, a chaotic hybridized local search mechanism is embedded in DE to avoid it from trapping …
