In this paper, an effective hybrid algorithm is proposed to address the TALB problem with multiple constraints (TALB-MC). Considering the discrete attribute of TALB-MC and the continuous attribute of the standard teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO) algorithm, the random-keys method is hired in task permutation representation, for the purpose of bridging the gap between them. Subsequently, a special mechanism for handling multiple constraints is developed. In the mechanism, the directions constraint of each task is ensured by the direction check and adjustment. The zoning constraints and the synchronism constraints are satisfied by teasing out the hidden correlations among constraints. The positional constraint is allowed to be violated to some extent in decoding and punished in cost fimction. Finally, with the TLBO seeking for the global optimum, the variable neighborhood search (VNS) is further hybridized to extend the local search space. The experimental results show that the proposed hybrid algorithm outperforms the late acceptance hill-climbing algorithm (LAHC) for TALB-MC in most cases, especially for large-size problems with multiple constraints, and demonstrates well balance between the exploration and the exploitation. This research proposes an effective and efficient algorithm for solving TALB-MC problem by hybridizing the TLBO and VNS.展开更多

文摘针对现有变电站碳排放量预测模型存在考虑指标较少、数据更新慢等问题,本文提出一种基于改进萤火虫算法(improved firefly algorithm,IFA)优化反向传播(back propagation,BP)神经网络的变电站碳排放预测模型。首先,针对萤火虫算法(firefly algorithm,FA)收敛速度过慢以及易陷入局部最优等问题,引入教与学因子,修改萤火虫位置更新过程,以提高群体适应度。其次,引入IFA算法对BP神经网络模型进行超参数寻优,并构建IFA-BP神经网络预测模型。然后,基于CRITIC法筛选预测模型输入层的关键碳排放指标。最后,利用训练集数据训练预测模型,基于训练好的模型对变电站的碳排放量进行预测。仿真结果表明,相较于3种对比方案,本文IFA-BP神经网络预测模型分别在均方根误差(root mean square error,RMSE)上降低59.61%、15.77%和26.65%,在决定系数(coefficient of determination,R^(2))上提高5.66%、1.46%和1.15%,充分验证了本文所提变电站碳排放预测模型的可行性与优越性。
