This paper presents an improved parallel particle swarm optimization approach (IPPSO) based decomposed network for economic power dispatch with discontinuous fuel cost functions. The range of partial power demand corresponding to the partial output powers near the global optimal solution is determined by a flexible decomposed network strategy and then the final optimal solution is obtained by parallel Particle Swarm Optimization. The proposed approach tested on 6 generating units with smooth cost function, and to 26-bus (6 generating units) with consideration of prohibited zone effect, the simulation results compared with recent global optimization methods (Bee-OPF, GA, MTS, SA, PSO). From the different case studies, it is observed that the proposed approach provides qualitative solution with less computational time compared to various methods available in the literature survey.

This paper addresses the problem of merging two feedforward neural networks into one network. Merging is accomplished at the level of hidden layer. A new network selects its hidden layer's units from the two networks to be merged We uses information theoretic criterion (quadratic mutual information) in the selection process. The hidden unit's output and the target patterns are considers as random variables and the mutual information between them is calculated. The mutual information between hidden units are also considered to prevent the statistically dependent units from being selected. Because mutual information is invariant under linear transformation of the variables, it shows the property of the robust estimation.

In this paper, A telemetering control system for the HDTV SMPS Aging System is developed. Manual Aging System is usually used to measurement of a produced SMPS. But in this system, the respective operator is arranged and monitoring the test cycle visually- According to an excess of the test time and mistakes of an operator, the reliability makes come to be low. Therefore as using the telemetering control system, it improves a productivity and a reliability of the HDTV SMPS. In the developed system, elec1rical signal is measured from aging system, and converted into the digital signal. Also the telemetering control system is composed of many units - telemetering control units for collecting the data, data relay units for the digital transmission service, data division for the multichannel realization.

This paper presents an efficient algorithm for evaluating the Profit and revenue of generating units in a competitive electricity market based on the probabilistic production costing technique. The accurate evaluation of the profit and revenue of generating units for long-term perspectives is one of the most important issues in a competitive electricity market environment. For efficient calculation of the profit and revenue of generating units under the equivalent load duration curve(ELDC), a new approach to figure out the marginal plants and the corresponding market clearing prices during a time period in a probabilistic manner is developed. The mathematical formulation and illustrative application of the suggested method is presented.

This study presents the unit control of a PC (Personal Computer) program using multiple smartphones based on ad hoc communication. A design of the data packet that multiple smartphones send to a computer, and a framework that manages and controls the unit in a computer after analyzing the data packet, are proposed. As a result, multiple users are able to control their own units using their smartphones while seeing the monitor connected to a computer. In other words, multiple users can share the same game in a computer or control their units embedded in a system using their smartphones. An experimental result shows that a racing game in a PC can be realized by the proposed communication interface, where four iPhones are used to control their units in a computer. Thus, the proposed framework can be effectively used for unit control in a PC using multiple smartphones.

We investigated the operating characteristics of the flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) with the parallel connection between the primary and secondary windings which are connected with two superconducting units in series. The parallel connection for current level increase of the flux-lock type SFCL is necessary to apply the SFCL into the power system. The resistance generated in superconducting units was dependent upon the winding direction of the primary and the secondary coils, which can reduce the power burden. The resistance of the superconducting elements in the subtractive polarity winding is higher than that of the additive polarity winding. The fault current limiting effect of the subtractive polarity winding is better than that of the additive polarity winding. From this results, we confirmed that the power capacity of the flux-lock type SFCL could be increased by the parallel connection of the superconducting units.

We propose an algorithm for obtaining the optimal node number of hidden units in dynamic neural networks. The dynamic nerual networks comprise of dynamic neural units and neural processor consisting of two dynamic neural units; one functioning as an excitatory neuron and the other as an inhibitory neuron. Starting out with basic network structure to solve the problem of control, we find optimal neural structure by multiplication and combining dynamic neural unit. Numerical examples are presented for nonlinear systems. Those case studies showed that the proposed is useful is practical sense.

This paper presents a load sharing method based on the low bandwidth communication (LBC) applied to a DC microgrid in order to balance the state of charge (SOC) of the battery units connected in parallel to the common bus. In this method, SOC of each battery unit is transferred to each other through LBC to calculate average SOC value. After that, droop coefficients of battery units are adjusted according to the difference between SOC of each unit and average SOC value of all batteries in the system. The proposed method can effectively balance the SOC of battery units in charging and discharging duration with a simple low bandwidth communication system.

This paper suggests a facial expression recognition system using face detection, face alignment, facial unit extraction, and training and testing algorithms based on AdaBoost classifiers. First, we find face region by a face detector. From the results, face alignment algorithm extracts feature points. The facial units are from a subset of action units generated by combining the obtained feature points. The facial units are generally more effective for smaller-sized databases, and are able to represent the facial expressions more efficiently and reduce the computation time, and hence can be applied to real-time scenarios. Experimental results in real scenarios showed that the proposed system has an excellent performance over 90% recognition rates.
