In this paper, we present a new hybrid algorithm which is a combination of a hybrid genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization. We focus in this research on a hybrid method combining two heuristic optimization techniques, genetic algorithms (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) for the global optimization. Denoted asGA-PSO, this hybrid technique incorporates concepts fromGAandPSOand creates individuals in a new generation not only by crossover and mutation operations as found inGAbut also by mechanisms ofPSO. The performance of the two algorithms has been evaluated using several experiments.

AbstractThis paper presents a comparative study for five artificial intelligent (AI) techniques to the dynamic economic dispatch problem: differential evolution, particle swarm optimization, evolutionary programming, genetic algorithm, and simulated annealing. Here, the optimal hourly generation schedule is determined. Dynamic economic dispatch determines the optimal scheduling of online generator outputs with predicted load demands over a certain period of time taking into consideration the ramp rate limits of the generators. The AI techniques for dynamic economic dispatch are evaluated against a ten-unit system with nonsmooth fuel cost function as a common testbed and the results are compared against each other.


Inverted Pendulum is a popular non-linear, unstable control problem where implementation of stabilizing the pole angle deviation, along with cart positioning is done by using novel control strategies. Soft computing techniques are applied for getting optimal results. The evolutionary computation forms the key research area for adaptation and optimization. The approach of finding optimal or near optimal solutions to the problem is based on natural evolution in evolutionary computation. The genetic algorithm is a method based on biological evolution and natural selection for solving both constrained and unconstrained problems. Particle swarm optimization is a stochastic search method inspired by collective behavior of animals like flocking of birds, schooling of fishes, swarming of bees etc. that is suited to continuous variable problems. These methods are applied to the inverted pendulum problem and their performance studied.
