The probability of the basic HHO algorithm in choosing different search methods is symmetric: about 0.5 in the interval from 0 to 1. The optimal solution from the previous iteration of the algorithm affects the current solution, the search for prey in a linear way led to a single search result, and the overall number of updates of the optimal position was low. These factors limit Harris Hawks optimization algorithm. For example, an ease of falling into a local optimum and the efficiency of convergence is low. Inspired by the prey hunting behavior of Harris’s hawk, a multi-strategy search Harris Hawks optimization algorithm is proposed, and the least squares support vector machine (LSSVM) optimized by the proposed algorithm was used to model the reactive power output of the synchronous condenser. Firstly, we select the best Gauss chaotic mapping method from seven commonly used chaotic mapping population initialization methods to improve the accuracy. Secondly, the optimal neighborhood perturbation mechanism is introduced to avoid premature maturity of the algorithm. Simultaneously, the adaptive weight and variable spiral search strategy are designed to simulate the prey hunting behavior of Harris hawk to improve the convergence speed of the improved algorithm and enhance the global search ability of the improved algorithm. A numerical experiment is tested with the classical 23 test functions and the CEC2017 test function set. The results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the Harris Hawks optimization algorithm and other intelligent optimization algorithms in terms of convergence speed, solution accuracy and robustness, and the model of synchronous condenser reactive power output established by the improved algorithm optimized LSSVM has good accuracy and generalization ability.

Identifying stress and its level has always been a challenging area for researchers. A lot of work is going on around the world on the same. An attempt has been made by the authors in this paper as they present a methodology for detecting stress in EEG signals. Electroencephalogram (EEG) is commonly used to acquire brain signal activity. Though there exist other techniques to extract the same like Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), positron emission tomography (PET) we have used EEG as it is economical. We have used an open-source dataset for EEG data. Various images are used as the target stressor for collecting EEG signals. After feature selection and extraction, a support vector machine (SVM) with a whale optimization algorithm (WOA) in its kernel function for classification is used. WOA is a bio-inspired meta-heuristic algorithm, based on the hunting behavior of humpback whales. Using this method, we had obtained 91% accuracy for detecting the stress. The paper also compared the previous work done in detecting stress with the work proposed in this paper.

 In this paper, a whale optimization algorithm based on adaptive inertia weight and variable spiral position updating strategy is proposed. The improved algorithm is used to solve the problem that the whale optimization algorithm is more dependent on the randomness of the parameters, so that the algorithm’s convergence accuracy and convergence speed are insufficient. The adaptive inertia weight, which varies with the fitness of individual whales, is used to balance the algorithm’s global search ability and local exploitation ability. The variable spiral position update strategy based on the collaborative convergence mechanism is used to dynamically adjust the search range and search accuracy of the algorithm. The effective combination of the two can make the improved whale optimization algorithm converge to the optimal solution faster. It had been used 18 international standard test functions, including unimodal function, multimodal function, and fixed-dimensional function to test the improved whale optimization algorithm in this paper. The test results show that the improved algorithm has faster convergence speed and higher algorithm accuracy than the original algorithm and several classic algorithms. The algorithm can quickly converge to near the optimal value in the early stage, and then effectively jump out of the local optimal through adaptive adjustment, and has a certain ability to solve large-scale optimization problems.

In order to reduce the active network loss, increase the power quality and voltage static stability of power system, an index function of multi-objective reactive power optimization is established. Then, an improved adaptive chaotic particle swarm optimization algorithm is proposed to solve the problem. Through the using of cubic chaotic mapping, the particle population is initialized to enhance the diversity of its value; In the optimization process, poor fitness particles are updated with chaos disturbance, and their inertia weight are adjusted dynamically with particles fitness value so as to avoid local convergence. Simulation of IEEE 30 bus system shows that the proposed algorithm for reactive power optimization can avoid premature convergence effectively, and converge to optimal solution rapidly.

Incremental industrialization and urbanization is the cause of enhanced energy use as it increases the building of new lines and more inductive loads. As a result, the transmission system losses increased, and the magnitudes of voltage profile values deviated from the stated value, resulting in increased cost of active power generation. To mitigate these issues, adequate reactive power compensation in the transmission line and bus systems should be done. Reactive power is regulated by the proper position of the Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS). Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is a voltage converter system that increases the voltage profile and reduces loss. In this paper, the optimal power flow solution is considered using a FACTS device based on Multi Population Modified Jaya (MPMJ) optimization algorithm. Using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) system, the optimal position of the UPFC device is determined by considering the most useful objective function provided by priorities and weighting factors. Therefore, on the standard IEEE-57 bus test system, the proposed MPMJ optimization algorithm is implemented with UPFC for optimal fuel cost values of generation, real power loss, voltage deviation and sum of squared voltage stability index. The result obtained by the proposed algorithm is contrasted with the recent literature algorithm

In many fields, such as oil logging, it is expensive to obtain labeled data, and a large amount of inexpensive unlabeled data are not used. Therefore, it is necessary to use semisupervised learning to obtain accurate classification with limited labeled data and many unlabeled data. The semisupervised support vector machine (S3VM) is the most useful method in semisupervised learning. Nevertheless, S3VM model performance will degrade when the sample number of categories is not even or have lots of unlabeled samples. Thus, a new semisupervised SVM by hybrid whale optimization algorithm (HWOA-S3VM) is proposed in this paper. Firstly, a tradeoff control parameter is added in S3VM to deal with an uneven sample of category which can cause S3VM to degrade. Then, a hybrid whale optimization algorithm (HWOA) is used to optimize the model parameters of S3VM to increase the classification accuracy. For HWOA improvement, an opposition-based cubic mapping is used to initialize the WOA population to improve the convergence speed, and the catfish effect is used to help WOA jump out of the local optimum and obtain the global optimization ability. In the experiments, firstly, the HWOA is tested by 12 classic benchmark functions of CEC2005 and four functions of CEC2014 compared with the other five algorithms. Then, six UCI datasets are used to test the performance of HWOA-S3VM and compared with the other four algorithms. Finally, we applied HWOA-S3VM to perform oil layer recognition of three oil well datasets. These experimental results show that (1) HWOA has a higher convergence speed and better global searchability than other algorithms. (2) HWOA-S3VM model has higher classification accuracy on UCI datasets than other algorithms when combined, labeled, and unlabeled data are used as the training dataset. (3) The recognition accuracy and speed of the HWOA-S3VM model are superior to the other four algorithms when applied in oil layer recognition.
