Short-term wind power forecasting using adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system combined with evolutionary particle swarm optimization, wavelet transform and mutual information

In the co-design process of hardware/software (HW/SW) system, especially for large and complicated embedded systems, HW/SW partitioning is a challenging step. Among different heuristic approaches, particle swarm optimization (PSO) has the advantages of simple implementation and computational efficiency, which is suitable for solving large-scale problems. This paper presents a conformity particle swarm optimization with fireworks explosion operation (CPSO-FEO) to solve large-scale HW/SW partitioning. First, the proposed CPSO algorithm simulates the conformist mentality from biology research. The CPSO particles with psychological conformist always try to move toward a secure point and avoid being attacked by natural enemy. In this way, there is a greater possibility to increase population diversity and avoid local optimum in CPSO. Next, to enhance the search accuracy and solution quality, an improved FEO with new initialization strategy is presented and is combined with CPSO algorithm to search a better pos...

Erratum: "An Efficient Particle Swarm Optimization for Large-Scale Hardware/Software Co-Design System"

With the development of the design complexity in embedded systems, hardware/software (HW/SW) partitioning becomes a challenging optimization problem in HW/SW co-design. A novel HW/SW partitioning method based on position disturbed particle swarm optimization with invasive weed optimization (PDPSO-IWO) is presented in this paper. It is found by biologists that the ground squirrels produce alarm calls which warn their peers to move away when there is potential predatory threat. Here, we present PDPSO algorithm, in each iteration of which the squirrel behavior of escaping from the global worst particle can be simulated to increase population diversity and avoid local optimum. We also present new initialization and reproduction strategies to improve IWO algorithm for searching a better position, with which the global best position can be updated. Then the search accuracy and the solution quality can be enhanced. PDPSO and improved IWO are synthesized into one single PDPSO-IWO algorithm, which can keep both searching diversification and searching intensification. Furthermore, a hybrid NodeRank (HNodeRank) algorithm is proposed to initialize the population of PDPSO-IWO, and the solution quality can be enhanced further. Since the HW/SW communication cost computing is the most time-consuming process for HW/SW partitioning algorithm, we adopt the GPU parallel technique to accelerate the computing. In this way, the runtime of PDPSO-IWO for large-scale HW/SW partitioning problem can be reduced efficiently. Finally, multiple experiments on benchmarks from state-of-the-art publications and large-scale HW/SW partitioning demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can achieve higher performance than other algorithms.

A Novel Hardware/Software Partitioning Method Based on Position Disturbed Particle Swarm Optimization with Invasive Weed Optimization

Electricity prices forecasting by a hybrid evolutionary-adaptive methodology

Dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is one of the custom power devices for compensating power quality indices which is used. The main function of DVR that is discussed in many studies is to compensate voltage sag at times when faults occur. For the first time, a new control structure is presented for considering the voltage sag as the main objective and voltage total harmonic distortion (THD) as the second objective of DVR controller. In this strategy, a new and powerful optimisation algorithm (known as chaotic accelerated particle swarm optimisation (CAPSO)) which is an improved version of particle swarm optimisation algorithm is used for determining the coefficients of the proportional-integral controller of DVR. These coefficients are determined in a way that voltage sag is considered as the main objective of optimisation algorithm and voltage THD is considered as its second objective. By fuzzifying the objectives, an appropriate objective function is proposed for the optimisation process. Results obtained from simulation and a comparison made between these results and those of other controllers show that the proposed strategy outperforms other strategies.

In this paper the authors investigate the application of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique for solving the hardware/software partitioning problem. The PSO is attractive for the hardware/software partitioning problem as it offers reasonable coverage of the design space together with O(n) main loop's execution time, where n is the number of proposed solutions that will evolve to provide the final solution. The authors carried out several tests on a hypothetical, relatively-large hardware/software partitioning problem using the PSO algorithm as well as the genetic algorithm (GA), which is another evolutionary technique. The authors found that PSO outperforms GA in the cost function and the execution time. For the case of unconstrained design problem, the authors tested several hybrid combinations of PSO and GA algorithm; including PSO then GA, GA then PSO, GA followed by GA, and finally PSO followed by PSO. We found that a PSO followed by GA algorithm gives small or no improvement at all, while a GA then PSO algorithm gives the same results as the PSO alone. The PSO algorithm followed by another PSO round gave the best result as it allows another round of domain exploration. The second PSO round assign new randomized velocities to the particles, while keeping best particle positions obtained in the first round. The paper proposes to name this successive PSO algorithm as the re-excited PSO algorithm

Hardware Software Partitioning using Particle Swarm Optimization Technique

3D-DCT technique is used in video system to eliminate the need for motion vectors computations in the encoder or motion compensation computations in the decoder. This paper focuses on the hardware implementation of the video encoder/decoder system design. A complete design of the quantizer and VLC in the encoder side, as well as design of dequantizer and VLD in the decoder side is implemented to complete the system. Finally the system is targeted on one of the well-known Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) provided by ALTERA Corp. and simulated using sample inputs.

Constrained and Unconstrained Hardware-Software Partitioning using Particle Swarm Optimization Technique.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a full custom, FPGA-based MPEG2 decoder. This FPGA design is attractive for its inherent In Circuit Configurability (ICR) and In Circuit programmability (ISP) capabilities. As such, this design is suitable for low cost, multi-standard, standard video decoders.
