Abstract

This study focuses on the effect of meta-heuristic algorithms inspired by nature in solving constrained optimization problems. Death penalty, static penalty, dynamic penalty, barrier function and Deb feasibility rule, which are the constraint handling techniques, were tested on Whale Optimization (WOA) and Harris Hawk Optimization (HHO) algorithms. Unconstrained and constrained benchmark functions and optimal power flow minimization problem were used to test the performance of algorithms. Furthermore, in order to compare the performance of WOA and HHO algorithms in optimal power flow, it was used with algorithms found in the literature.. As a result, it has been observed that algorithms integrated into constraint handling methods are effective in solving constrained optimization problems.

Harris Şahinleri ve Balina Optimizasyon Algoritmalarının Kısıt İşleme Teknikleriyle Uygulaması: Karşılaştırmalı bir çalışma

Abstract

Bu çalışmada kısıtlı optimizasyon problemlerin çözümünde, doğadan ilham alan meta-sezgisel algoritmaların etkisine odaklanılmıştır. Kısıtlı ihlal tekniklerinden olan ölüm ceza, statik ceza, dinamik ceza, bariyer fonksiyon ve Deb uygulanabilirlik kuralı Balina Optimizasyon (BOA) ve Harris Şahini Optimizasyon (HŞO) algoritmaları üzerinde test edilmiştir. Algoritmaların performansını test etmede kısıtsız ve kısıtlı benchmark fonksiyonları ve optimal güç akışı minimizasyon problemi kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca BOA ve HŞO algoritmaların optimal güç akışında gösterdikleri performanslarını karşılaştırmak amacıyla literatürde bulunan algoritmalarla kullanılmıştır. Sonuç olarak kısıt ihlal yöntemlerine entegre edilmiş algoritmaların kısıtlı optimizasyon problemlerin çözümünde etkili olduğu görülmüştür
