This paper deals with the design of an optimally performed proportional–integral–derivative (PID) controller utilized for speed control of a direct current (DC) motor. To do so, a novel hybrid algorithm was proposed which employs a recent metaheuristic approach, named Lévy flight distribution (LFD) algorithm, and a simplex search method known as Nelder–Mead (NM) algorithm. The proposed algorithm (LFDNM) combines both LFD and NM algorithms in such a way that the good explorative behaviour of LFD and excellent local search capability of NM help to form a novel hybridized version that is well balanced in terms of exploration and exploitation. The promise of the proposed structure was observed through employment of a DC motor with PID controller. Optimum values for PID gains were obtained with the aid of an integral of time multiplied absolute error objective function. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, comparative simulations were carried out using cuckoo search algorithm, genetic algorithm and original LFD algorithm. The system behaviour was assessed through analysing the results for statistical and non-parametric tests, transient and frequency responses, robustness, load disturbance, energy and maximum control signals. The respective evaluations showed better performance of the proposed approach. In addition, the better performance of the proposed approach was also demonstrated through experimental verification. Further evaluation to demonstrate better capability was performed by comparing the LFDNM-based PID controller with other state-of-the-art algorithms-based PID controllers with the same system parameters, which have also confirmed the superiority of the proposed approach.

Abstract The Cuckoo search (CS) algorithm is an efficient evolutionary algorithm inspired by the nesting and parasitic reproduction behaviors of some cuckoo species. Mutation is an operator used in evolutionary algorithms to maintain the diversity of the population from one generation to the next. The original CS algorithm uses the Lévy flight method, which is a special mutation operator, for efficient exploration of the search space. The major goal of the current paper is to experimentally evaluate the performance of the CS algorithm after replacing the Lévy flight method in the original CS algorithm with seven different mutation methods. The proposed variations of CS were evaluated using 14 standard benchmark functions in terms of the accuracy and reliability of the obtained results over multiple simulations. The experimental results suggest that the CS with polynomial mutation provides more accurate results and is more reliable than the other CS variations.

This article presents a cuckoo search algorithm, via Lévy flight, considering the effects of coevolution on the displacement dynamics of animal communities, and applies this algorithm to the development of maximally distributed physical arrangements. Some variables are introduced such as egg weight and the acquired learning of host birds. The results show that the proposed algorithm prevails, in the majority of the interviewed instances, in the degree of distribution in comparison with the classic TARGET and ALVO methods, and with the Genetic Algorithm. The proposed algorithm was shown to be able to obtain a low degree of distribution in a satisfactory computational time, especially in large problems.

Feature selection is an essential step in the preprocessing of data in pattern recognition and data mining. Nowadays, the feature selection problem as an optimization problem can be solved with nature-inspired algorithm. In this paper, we propose an efficient feature selection method based on the cuckoo search algorithm called CBCSEM. The proposed method avoids the premature convergence of traditional methods and the tendency to fall into local optima, and this efficient method is attributed to three aspects. Firstly, the chaotic map increases the diversity of the initialization of the algorithm and lays the foundation for its convergence. Then, the proposed two-population elite preservation strategy can find the attractive one of each generation and preserve it. Finally, Lévy flight is developed to update the position of a cuckoo, and the proposed uniform mutation strategy avoids the trouble that the search space is too large for the convergence of the algorithm due to Lévy flight and improves the algorithm exploitation ability. The experimental results on several real UCI datasets show that the proposed method is competitive in comparison with other feature selection algorithms.

In radar signal processing pulse compression has been extensively used which solves the problem of maintaining simultaneously high transmit energy of long pulse and large range resolution of short pulse. The concept of pulse compression can be best understood from matched filtering that determines the ratio of peak of the sidelobe to peak value of mainlobe. But the resolution of weak targets from stronger one is difficult due to range sidelobes in the auto-correlation pattern of matched filter. With this idea of reducing these sidelobes, various optimization techniques are used. This paper represents a method to optimize the performance of chaotic sequence using mismatched filter. The optimization completely depends on the design of coefficients of mismatched filter at the receiver side. Here improved cuckoo search method is used instead of Lévy flight cuckoo search with the differential evolution technique to complete the design of cascaded mismatched filter. Finally, improved results are obtained as compared to Lévy flight method of cuckoo search.

Abstract A modified Cuckoo search algorithm (MCS) is proposed in this paper to improve the accuracy of the algorithm’s convergence by implementing random operators and adapt the adjustment mechanism of the Levy Flight search step length. Comparative experiments reveal that MCS can effectively adjust the search mechanism in the high-dimensional function optimization and converge to the optimal global value.

Power Load Forecasting

Load forecasting is a difficult task, because the load series is complex and exhibits several levels of seasonality. The load at a given hour is dependent not only on the load at the previous day, but also on the load at the same hour on the previous day and previous week, and because there are many important exogenous variables that must be considered. Most of the researches were simultaneously concentrated on the number of input variables to be considered for the load forecasting problem. In this paper, we concentrate on optimizing the load demand using forecasting of the weather conditions, water consumption, and electrical load. Here, the neural network (NN) power load forecasting model clubbed with Levy-flight from cuckoo search algorithm is proposed, i.e., called hybrid neural network (HNN), and named as LF-HNN, where the Levy-flight is used to automatically select the appropriate spread parameter value for the NN power load forecasting model. The results from the simulation work have demonstrated the value of the LF-HNN approach successfully selected the appropriate operating mode to achieve optimization of the overall energy efficiency of the system using all available energy resources.
