The aim of this work is to simulate the 3-houly mean zero-up-crossing wave periods (Tzs) of the sea-states of a future period for a location in the North East Pacific. Seven multi-layer artificial neural networks (ANNs) were trained with simulated annealing algorithm. The output of each ANN was used for estimating each of the 7 parameters of a new distribution, described in Appendix A, called hepta-parameter spline proposed for the conditional distribution of the Tz given some significant wave heights and mean zero-up-crossing wave periods. After estimating the parameters of the conditional distributions, the Tzs have been forecasted from the hepta-parameter spline distributions corresponding to the Tzs of the period.

The problem of forecasting state variables of electric power system is studied. The paper suggests data-driven adaptive approach based on hybrid-genetic algorithm which combines the advantages of genetic algorithm and simulated annealing algorithm. The proposed method has two stages. At the first stage the input signal is decomposed into orthogonal basis functions based on the Hilbert-Huang transform. The genetic algorithm and simulated annealing algorithm are applied to optimal training of the artificial neural network and support vector machine at the second stage. The results of applying the developed approach for the short-term forecasts of active power flows in the electric networks are presented. The best efficiency of proposed approach is demonstrated on real retrospective data of active power flow forecast using the hybrid-genetic support vector machine algorithm.
