This paper presents the performance evaluation of hybrid Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model with selected meta-heuristics for predicting the AC output power fof a Grid-Connected Photovoltaic (GCPV). The ANN has been hybridized with three meta-heuristics, i.e. Cuckoo Search Algorithm (CSA), Evolutionary Programming (EP) and Firefly Algorithm (FA) separately. These meta-heuristics were used to optimize the number of neurons, learning rate and momentum rate such that the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of the prediction was minimized during the ANN training process. The results showed that CSA had outperformed EP and FA in producing the lowest RMSE. Later, Mutated Cuckoo Search Algorithm (MCSA) was introduced by incorporating Gaussian mutation operator in the conventional CSA. Further investigation showed that MSCA performed better prediction when compared with the conventional CSA in terms of RMSE and computation time.

This thesis aims to predict the stock prices, using artificial neural network with extreme learning machine (ELM) method and cuckoo search algorithm (CSA). Stock is one type of investment that is in great demand in Indonesia. The portion ownership of stock is determined by how much investment is invested in the company. In this case, stock is an aggressive type of investment instrument, because stock prices can change over time. In this case, ELM is used to determine forecasting values, while CSA is applied to compile and optimize the values of weights and biases to be used in the forecasting process. After obtaining the best weights and biases, the validation test process is then carried out to determine the level of success of the training process. The data used is the daily data of the stock price of PT. Bank Mandiri (Persero) Tbk. the total is 291 data. Furthermore, the data is divided into 70% for the training process is as many as 199 data and 30% for the validation test as many as 87 data. Then compiled pattern of training and validation test patterns is 198 patterns and 82 patterns. Based on the implementation of the program, with several parameter obtained the result of  MSE training is 0.001304353, with an MSE of validation test is 0.0031517704. Because the MSE value obtained is relatively small, this indicates that the ELM-CSA network is able to recognize data patterns and is able to predict well.

Station-keeping using mooring lines is an important part of the design of floating offshore platforms, and has been used on most types of floating platforms, such as Spar, Semi-submersible, and FPSO. It is of great interest to monitor the integrity of the mooring lines to detect any damaged and/or failures. This paper presents a method to train an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model for damage detection of mooring lines based on a patented methodology that uses detection of subtle shifts in the long drift period of a moored floating vessel as an indicator of mooring line failure, using only GPS monitoring. In case of an FPSO, the total mass or weight of the vessel is also used as a variable. The training of the ANN model employs a back-propagation learning algorithm and an automatic method for determination of ANN architecture. The input variables of the ANN model can be derived from the monitored motion of the platform by GPS (plus vessel’s total mass in case of an FPSO), and the output of the model is the identification of a specific damaged mooring line. The training and testing of the ANN model use the results of numerical analyses for a semi-submersible offshore platform with twenty mooring lines for a range of metocean conditions. The training data cover the cases of intact mooring lines and a damaged line for two selected adjacent lines. As an illustration, the evolution of the model at various training stages is presented in terms of its accuracy to detect and identify a damaged mooring line. After successful training, the trained model can detect with great fidelity and speed the damaged mooring line. In addition, it can detect accurately the damaged mooring line for sea states that are not included in the training. This demonstrates that the model can recognize and classify patterns associated with a damaged mooring line and separate them from patterns of intact mooring lines for sea states that are and are not included in the training. This study demonstrates a great potential for the use of a more general and comprehensive ANN model to help monitor the station keeping integrity of a floating offshore platform and the dynamic behavior of floating systems in order to forecast problems before they occur by detecting deviations in historical patterns.
