AN IMPROVED METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING WELL-TEST INTERPRETATION MODEL BASED ON AG...IAEME Publication
This paper presents an approach based on applying an aggregated predictor formed by multiple versions of a multilayer neural network with a back-propagation optimization algorithm for helping the engineer to get a list of the most appropriate well-test interpretation models for a given set of pressure/ production data. The proposed method consists of three stages: (1) data decorrelation through principal component analysis to reduce the covariance between the variables and the dimension of the input layer in the artificial neural network, (2) bootstrap replicates of the learning set where the data is repeatedly sampled with a random split of the data into train sets and using these as new learning sets, and (3) automatic reservoir model identification through aggregated predictor formed by a plurality vote when predicting a new class. This method is described in detail to ensure successful replication of results. The required training and test dataset were generated by using analytical solution models. In our case, there were used 600 samples: 300 for training, 100 for cross-validation, and 200 for testing. Different network structures were tested during this study to arrive at optimum network design. We notice that the single net methodology always brings about confusion in selecting the correct model even though the training results for the constructed networks are close to 1. We notice also that the principal component analysis is an effective strategy in reducing the number of input features, simplifying the network structure, and lowering the training time of the ANN. The results obtained show that the proposed model provides better performance when predicting new data with a coefficient of correlation approximately equal to 95% Compared to a previous approach 80%, the combination of the PCA and ANN is more stable and determine the more accurate results with lesser computational complexity than was feasible previously. Clearly, the aggregated predictor is more stable and shows less bad classes compared to the previous approach.

Nowadays, the location and sizing of distributed generation (DG) units in power system network are crucial to be at optimal as it will affect the power system operation in terms of stability and security. In this paper, a new technique termed as Immune Log-Normal Evolutionary Programming (ILNEP) is applied to find the optimal location and size of distributed generation units in power system network. Voltage stability is considered in solving this problem. The proposed technique has been tested on the IEEE 26 bus Reliability Test System to find the optimal location and size of distributed generation in transmission network. In order to study the performance of ILNEP technique in solving DG Installation problem, the results produced by ILNEP were compared with other meta-heuristic techniques like evolutionary programming (EP) and artificial immune system (AIS). It is found that the proposed technique gives better solution in term of lower total system loss compared to the other two techniques.

Short Term Load Forecasting Using Bootstrap Aggregating Based Ensemble Artifi...Kashif Mehmood
Short Term Load Forecasting (STLF) can predict load from several minutes to week plays
the vital role to address challenges such as optimal generation, economic scheduling, dispatching and
contingency analysis. This paper uses Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) Artificial Neural Network
(ANN) technique to perform STFL but long training time and convergence issues caused by bias,
variance and less generalization ability, unable this algorithm to accurately predict future loads. This
issue can be resolved by various methods of Bootstraps Aggregating (Bagging) (like disjoint
partitions, small bags, replica small bags and disjoint bags) which helps in reducing variance and
increasing generalization ability of ANN. Moreover, it results in reducing error in the learning process
of ANN. Disjoint partition proves to be the most accurate Bagging method and combining outputs of
this method by taking mean improves the overall performance. This method of combining several
predictors known as Ensemble Artificial Neural Network (EANN) outperform the ANN and Bagging
method by further increasing the generalization ability and STLF accuracy.

PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT OF ANFIS APPLIED TO FAULT DIAGNOSIS OF POWER TRANSFORMER ecij
Continuous monitoring of Power transformer is very much essential during its operation. Incipient faults inside the tank and winding insulation needs careful attention. Traditional ratio methods and Duval triangle can be employed to diagnose the incipient faults. Many times correct diagnosis due to the
borderline problems and the existence of multiple faults may not be possible. Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques could be the best solution to handle the non linearity and complexity in the input data. In the proposed work, adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), is utilized to deal with 9 incipient fault conditions including healthy condition of power transformer with sufficient DGA transformer oil samples. Comparison of the diagnosis performance of both the methods of ANFIS and the feasibility pertaining to the problem is presented. Diagnosis error in classifying the oil samples and the network structure are the main considerations of the present study.

An Application of Genetic Programming for Power System Planning and OperationIDES Editor
This work incorporates the identification of model
in functional form using curve fitting and genetic programming
technique which can forecast present and future load
requirement. Approximating an unknown function with
sample data is an important practical problem. In order to
forecast an unknown function using a finite set of sample
data, a function is constructed to fit sample data points. This
process is called curve fitting. There are several methods of
curve fitting. Interpolation is a special case of curve fitting
where an exact fit of the existing data points is expected.
Once a model is generated, acceptability of the model must be
tested. There are several measures to test the goodness of a
model. Sum of absolute difference, mean absolute error, mean
absolute percentage error, sum of squares due to error (SSE),
mean squared error and root mean squared errors can be used
to evaluate models. Minimizing the squares of vertical distance
of the points in a curve (SSE) is one of the most widely used
method .Two of the methods has been presented namely Curve
fitting technique & Genetic Programming and they have been
compared based on (SSE)sum of squares due to error.

This document compares different data-driven modeling techniques for reservoir inflow analysis, specifically artificial neural networks (ANN) and M5 model trees. Traditional hydrological methods for inflow analysis were complex, time-consuming, and required extensive data collection. Data-driven techniques provide simpler alternatives by using attributes like direct rainfall-runoff data from surrounding rain gauge stations. The document outlines how ANNs and M5 model trees work, and finds that M5 model trees performed more accurately than ANNs for this reservoir inflow prediction task, as the model setting is easier, training is faster, and results are in a linear equation format.
This document discusses numerical investigations of the electric field distribution induced in the brain by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).

This explains the general algorithmic flow which goes into developing a Neural Network ensemble hybridized with evolutionary optimization schemes which are targeted in optimizing more than one cost function.

Fast and accurate primary user detection with machine learning techniques for...nooriasukmaningtyas
Spectrum decision is an important and crucial task for the secondary user to avail the unlicensed spectrum for transmission. Managing the spectrum is an efficient one for spectrum sensing. Determining the primary user presence in the spectrum is an essential work for using the licensed spectrum of primary user. The information which lacks in managing the spectrum are the information about the primary user presence, accuracy in determining the existence of user in the spectrum, the cost for computation and difficult in finding the user in low signal-to noise ratio (SNR) values. The proposed system overcomes the above limitations. In the proposed system, the various techniques of machine learning like decision tree, support vector machines, naive bayes, ensemble based trees, nearest neighbour’s and logistic regression are used for testing the algorithm. As a first step, the spectrum sensing is done in two stages with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing and energy detection algorithm at the various values of SNR. The results generated from the above algorithm is used for database generation. Next, the different machine learning techniques are trained and compared for the results produced by different algorithms with the characteristics like speed, time taken for training and accuracy in prediction. The accuracy and finding the presence of the user in the spectrum at low SNR values are achieved by all the algorithms. The computation cost of the algorithm differs from each other. Among the tested techniques, k-nearest neighbour (KNN) algorithm produces the better performance in a minimized time.

Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

A review on techniques and modelling methodologies used for checking electrom...nooriasukmaningtyas
The proper function of the integrated circuit (IC) in an inhibiting electromagnetic environment has always been a serious concern throughout the decades of revolution in the world of electronics, from disjunct devices to today’s integrated circuit technology, where billions of transistors are combined on a single chip. The automotive industry and smart vehicles in particular, are confronting design issues such as being prone to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Electronic control devices calculate incorrect outputs because of EMI and sensors give misleading values which can prove fatal in case of automotives. In this paper, the authors have non exhaustively tried to review research work concerned with the investigation of EMI in ICs and prediction of this EMI using various modelling methodologies and measurement setups.
TIME DIVISION MULTIPLEXING TECHNIQUE FOR COMMUNICATION SYSTEMHODECEDSIET
Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) is a method of transmitting multiple signals over a single communication channel by dividing the signal into many segments, each having a very short duration of time. These time slots are then allocated to different data streams, allowing multiple signals to share the same transmission medium efficiently. TDM is widely used in telecommunications and data communication systems.
### How TDM Works
1. **Time Slots Allocation**: The core principle of TDM is to assign distinct time slots to each signal. During each time slot, the respective signal is transmitted, and then the process repeats cyclically. For example, if there are four signals to be transmitted, the TDM cycle will divide time into four slots, each assigned to one signal.
2. **Synchronization**: Synchronization is crucial in TDM systems to ensure that the signals are correctly aligned with their respective time slots. Both the transmitter and receiver must be synchronized to avoid any overlap or loss of data. This synchronization is typically maintained by a clock signal that ensures time slots are accurately aligned.
3. **Frame Structure**: TDM data is organized into frames, where each frame consists of a set of time slots. Each frame is repeated at regular intervals, ensuring continuous transmission of data streams. The frame structure helps in managing the data streams and maintaining the synchronization between the transmitter and receiver.
4. **Multiplexer and Demultiplexer**: At the transmitting end, a multiplexer combines multiple input signals into a single composite signal by assigning each signal to a specific time slot. At the receiving end, a demultiplexer separates the composite signal back into individual signals based on their respective time slots.
### Types of TDM
1. **Synchronous TDM**: In synchronous TDM, time slots are pre-assigned to each signal, regardless of whether the signal has data to transmit or not. This can lead to inefficiencies if some time slots remain empty due to the absence of data.
2. **Asynchronous TDM (or Statistical TDM)**: Asynchronous TDM addresses the inefficiencies of synchronous TDM by allocating time slots dynamically based on the presence of data. Time slots are assigned only when there is data to transmit, which optimizes the use of the communication channel.
### Applications of TDM
- **Telecommunications**: TDM is extensively used in telecommunication systems, such as in T1 and E1 lines, where multiple telephone calls are transmitted over a single line by assigning each call to a specific time slot.
- **Digital Audio and Video Broadcasting**: TDM is used in broadcasting systems to transmit multiple audio or video streams over a single channel, ensuring efficient use of bandwidth.
- **Computer Networks**: TDM is used in network protocols and systems to manage the transmission of data from multiple sources over a single network medium.
### Advantages of TDM
- **Efficient Use of Bandwidth**: TDM all

2. In the present day power scenario Unit Commitment (UC) is one of the complex challenging tasks for
power system operators. UC is a nonlinear, non-convex, large scale, mixed integer problem. To mitigate
this complex problem in this paper a hybrid Differential Evolution with local search technique and an
adaptive Crossover using triangular distribution factor (DE-TCR) is presented. The salient features of the
proposed DE-TCR are: An intelligent chromosome representation is used which is independent of
number of units present in UC problem thereby reducing the length of chromosome. It is able to
interlink the cross over probability in conjunction with the non-separable and decision variable
dependency of UC problems. Local search using Sequential Quadratic Programming, which has proved
in improving the performance of the classical DE algorithm. Initially, the proposed DE-TCR is used to
determine an optimal generation schedule for each hourly demand. Later, SQP is utilized to find the
optimal dispatch strategy to minimize the fuel cost. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is
tested on standard 4 units, 8 hour and 10 units, 24 hour UC systems. Results demonstrate that the
proposed algorithm can perform better and produce global optimal solutions compared to that of other
