Water flow in the subsoil generates electrical currents measurable at the ground surface with the self-potential (SP) method. These measured potentials, which result from hydroelectric coupling, are called streaming potentials and are well correlated with the geometry of the water table. The particle swarm algorithm can be used to estimate the water-table elevation from SP data measured at the ground surface. The basic idea behind particle swarm optimization (PSO) is that each model searches the model space according to its misfit history and the misfit of the other models (particles) of the swarm. PSO is a simple, robust, and versatile algorithm with a very good convergence rate (typically before 3000 forward runs), and it can explore a large model space without being time consuming. Based on samples gathered in a low-misfit area, we have computed a fast approximation of the posterior distribution of the water table, the electrokinetic coupling constant, and the reference hydraulic head. Although PSO is a stochastic search technique, our convergence results, based on the stability of particle trajectories, specify clear criteria to tune PSO parameters.

We have compared the performances of six recently developed global optimization algorithms: imperialist competitive algorithm, firefly algorithm (FA), water cycle algorithm (WCA), whale optimization algorithm (WOA), fireworks algorithm (FWA), and quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO). These methods have been introduced in the past few years and have found very limited or no applications to geophysical exploration problems thus far. We benchmark the algorithms’ results against the particle swarm optimization (PSO), which is a popular and well-established global search method. In particular, we are interested in assessing the exploration and exploitation capabilities of each method as the dimension of the model space increases. First, we test the different algorithms on two multiminima and two convex analytic objective functions. Then, we compare them using the residual statics corrections and 1D elastic full-waveform inversion, which are highly nonlinear geophysical optimization problems. Our results demonstrate that FA, FWA, and WOA are characterized by optimal exploration capabilities because they outperform the other approaches in the case of optimization problems with multiminima objective functions. Differently, QPSO and PSO have good exploitation capabilities because they easily solve ill-conditioned optimizations characterized by a nearly flat valley in the objective function. QPSO, PSO, and WCA offer a good compromise between exploitation and exploration.

The penetration of renewable distributed generations (RDGs) such as wind and solar energy into conventional power systems provides many technical and environmental benefits. These benefits include enhancing power system reliability, providing a clean solution to rapidly increasing load demands, reducing power losses, and improving the voltage profile. However, installing these distributed generation (DG) units can cause negative effects if their size and location are not properly determined. Therefore, the optimal location and size of these distributed generations may be obtained to avoid these negative effects. Several conventional and artificial algorithms have been used to find the location and size of RDGs in power systems. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is one of the most important and widely used techniques. In this paper, a new variant of particle swarm algorithm with nonlinear time varying acceleration coefficients (PSO-NTVAC) is proposed to determine the optimal location and size of multiple DG units for meshed and radial networks. The main objective is to minimize the total active power losses of the system, while satisfying several operating constraints. The proposed methodology was tested using IEEE 14-bus, 30-bus, 57-bus, 33-bus, and 69- bus systems with the change in the number of DG units from 1 to 4 DG units. The result proves that the proposed PSO-NTVAC is more efficient to solve the optimal multiple DGs allocation with minimum power loss and a high convergence rate.

The hybrid wind/PV/pumped-storage power system was the hybrid system which combined hybrid wind/PV system and pumped-storage power station. System optimization was very important in the system design process. Particle swarm optimization algorithm was a stochastic global optimization algorithm with good convergence and high accuracy, so it was used to optimize the hybrid system in this paper. First, the system reliability model was established. Second, the particle swarm optimization algorithm was used to optimize the system model in Nanjing. Finally, The results were analyzed and discussed. The optimization results showed that the optimal design method of wind/PV/pumped-storage system based on particle swarm optimization could take into account both the local optimization and the global optimization, which has good convergence high precision. The optimal system was that LPSP (loss of power supply probability) was zero.

In view of the low efficiency of the particle swarm algorithm under multiple constraints of reservoir optimal operation, this paper introduces a particle swarm algorithm based on strongly constrained space. In the process of particle optimization, the algorithm eliminates the infeasible region that violates the water balance in order to reduce the influence of the unfeasible region on the particle evolution. In order to verify the effectiveness of the algorithm, it is applied to the calculation of reservoir optimal operation. Finally, this method is compared with the calculation results of the dynamic programming (DP) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The results show that: (1) the average computational time of strongly constrained particle swarm optimization (SCPSO) can be thought of as the same as the PSO algorithm and lesser than the DP algorithm under similar optimal value; and (2) the SCPSO algorithm has good performance in terms of finding near-optimal solutions, computational efficiency, and stability of optimization results. SCPSO not only improves the efficiency of particle evolution, but also avoids excessive improvement and affects the computational efficiency of the algorithm, which provides a convenient way for particle swarm optimization in reservoir optimal operation.

In this article, a hierarchical cooperative algorithm based on the genetic algorithm and the particle swarm optimization is proposed that the paper should utilize the global searching ability of genetic algorithm and the fast convergence speed of particle swarm optimization. The proposed algorithm starts from Individual organizational structure of subgroups and takes full advantage of the merits of the particle swarm optimization algorithm and the genetic algorithm (HCGA-PSO). The algorithm uses a layered structure with two layers. The bottom layer is composed of a series of genetic algorithm by subgroup that contributes to the global searching ability of the algorithm. The upper layer is an elite group consisting of the best individuals of each subgroup and the particle swarm algorithm is used to perform precise local search. The experimental results demonstrate that the HCGA-PSO algorithm has better convergence and stronger continuous search capability, which makes it suitable for solving complex optimization problems.

Due to the influence of artificial factor and slow convergence of particle swarm algorithm (PSO) during parameters selection of support vector machine (SVM), this paper proposes a modified particle swarm optimization support vector machine (MPSO-SVM). A Steam turbine vibration fault diagnosis model was established and the failure data was used in fault diagnosis. The results of application show the model can get automatic optimization about the related parameters of support vector machine and achieve the ideal optimal solution globally. MPSO-SVM strategy is feasible and effective compared with traditional particle swarm optimization support vector machine (PSO-SVM) and genetic algorithm support vector machine (GA-SVM).
