Both singular and multiple objective functions (OFs) are considered here. These are, both alone and together, a drop in aggregated voltage deviation (AVD) over buses and a reduction in active power loss (APL). Twenty one cases in all have been looked at using three test frameworks. TSC-TCR (FACTs devices) with test setup are being used for cases 4–6, 9–12 & 16–21. The objectives have been achieved by the use of the COMMKE algorithm, a multi-trial vector-based monkey king evolution (MMKE) method integrated with oppositional based learning (OBL) and chaotic based learning (CBL). Comparative analysis has also been done on the performance of the other optimization methods that were showcased in the latest ORPD research. Both constant and dynamic load demand scenarios are covered in the study. Appropriate probability density functions (PDF) are used to forecast the uncertain WP, PV source, and load demand. Uncertain situations with fluctuating load demand, wind speed (WS), and sun irradiation (SI) are simulated using Monte Carlo simulations (MCS). The investigations’ findings demonstrate that, in a variety of cases, the COMMKE outperforms optimization techniques found in the recent ORPD literature. The improvement of power network efficiency in ORPD difficulties by the application of TSC-TCR is another noteworthy conclusion. To scrutinize the performance of COMMKE, the identical experiments have been conducted using MMKE & driving training based optimization (DTB) and the results coming from COMMKE, MMKE & DTBO are compared.

These systems play a critical role in understanding fundamental biological processes, including gene regulation, microbial interactions, and cellular dynamics. For example, microbial communities involve complex interactions between microbes, bacteria, genes, and small molecules observed through omics data, while GRNs consist of numerous interacting genes observed via various gene-expression technologies. However, reconstructing the topology of such networks poses significant challenges due to their large scale, high dimensionality, and the presence of noise. Existing inference techniques often struggle with scalability, interpretability, and overfitting, making them unsuitable for analyzing large and complex biological systems. To overcome these challenges, this paper proposes a Bayesian topology optimization framework for efficient and scalable inference of regulatory networks modeled as partially-observed Boolean dynamical systems (POBDS). The method combines the Boolean Kalman Filter (BKF) as an optimal estimator for POBDS, with Bayesian optimization, which employs Gaussian Process regression and a topology-inspired kernel function to model the log-likelihood function. Numerical experiments demonstrate the superior performance of our framework. In the p53-MDM2 network, our method accurately infers topology with 8 and 16 unknown regulations, achieving higher log-likelihood with 100 and 200 evaluations, respectively.

One disadvantage of the traditional PID controller is that its parameters are tuned based on trials and errors, but the fuzzy PID controller will automatically adjust its PID gains based on the IF-THEN rules and the parameters of the fuzzy systems are designed beforehand. For other adaptive fuzzy controllers, their parameters are online updated with large computational load.

Effective robot movement requires a robust control system to regulate steering and ensure precise maneuvering toward locations. However, a common challenge in service robot navigation is the lack of precision in steering control. To address this issue, this study implements and evaluates a steering control system for wheeled service robots using a type-2 fuzzy logic controller (T2-FLC). The proposed T2-FLC system incorporates two input variables: error (difference between the setpoint determined by the light detection and ranging sensor and the steering encoder reading) and de-error (difference between the current and previous error values). Subsequently, these inputs are converted into three, five, or seven membership functions (MFs). Comparative simulation analysis revealed that the T2-FLC with seven MFs outperformed that with alternative MF configurations and a conventional type-1 FLC and achieved a minimal steady-state error of 0.0118. Real-time experiments further validated these findings, with the seven-MF T2-FLC producing a steady-state error of only 3.6 during a 90° setpoint test. In obstacle navigation trials, a T2-FLC-equipped robot navigated to target destinations in 32.49 s in stationary obstacle scenarios and within 41.78 s in dynamic obstacle environments. These findings confirm that the T2-FLC significantly enhances steering performance, making it viable for controlling service robot navigation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":34733,"journal":{"name":"Results in Control and Optimization","volume":"19 ","pages":"Article 100558"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143917509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
