This paper presents Bat Algorithm and K-Means techniques for classification performance improvement. The objective of this study is to investigate efficiency of Bat Algorithm in discrete dataset and to find the optimum feature in discrete dataset. In this study, one technique that comprise the discretization technique and feature selection technique have been proposed. Our contribution is in two process of classification: pre-processing and feature selection process. First, to proposed discretization techniques called as BkMD, where we hybrid Bat Algorithm technique and K-Means classifier. Second, to proposed BkMDFS as feature selection technique where Bat Algorithm is embed into BkMD. In order to evaluate our proposed techniques, 14 continuous dataset from various applications are used in experiment. From the experiment, results show that BkMDFS outperforms in most performance measures. Hence it shows that, Bat Algorithm have potential to be one of the discretization technique and feature selection technique.

Short Term Load Forecasting

Abstract Very short term load forecasting (VSTLF) plays a pivotal role in helping the utility workers make proper decisions regarding generation scheduling, size of spinning reserve, and maintaining equilibrium between the power generated by the utility to fulfil the load demand. However, the development of an effective VSTLF model is challenging in gathering noisy real-time data and complicates features found in load demand variations from time to time. A hybrid approach for VSTLF using an incomplete fuzzy decision system (IFDS) combined with a genetic algorithm (GA) based feature selection technique for load forecasting in an hour ahead format is proposed in this research work. This proposed work aims to determine the load features and eliminate redundant features to form a less complex forecasting model. The proposed method considers the time of the day, temperature, humidity, and dew point as inputs and generates output as forecasted load. The input data and historical load data are collected from the Northern Regional Load Dispatch Centre (NRLDC) New Delhi for December 2009, January 2010 and February 2010. For validation of proposed method efficacy, it’s performance is further compared with other conventional AI techniques like ANN and ANFIS, which are integrated with genetic algorithm-based feature selection technique to boost their performance. These techniques’ accuracy is tested through their mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and normalized root mean square error (nRMSE) value. Compared to other conventional AI techniques and other methods provided through previous studies, the proposed method is found to have acceptable accuracy for 1 h ahead of electrical load forecasting.
