Long-term Sector-wise Electrical Energy Forecasting Using Artificial Neural Network and Biogeography-based Optimization

This article presents a hybrid model involving artificial neural networks and biogeography-based optimization for long-term forecasting of India's sector-wise electrical energy demand. It involves socio-economic indicators, such as population and per capita gross domestic product, and uses two artificial neural networks, which are trained through a biogeography-based optimization algorithm with a goal of perfect mapping of the input–output data in the non-linear space through obtaining the global best weight parameters. The biogeography-based optimization based training of the artificial neural network improves the forecasting accuracy and avoids trapping in local optima besides enhancing the convergence to the lowest mean squared error at the minimum number of iterations than existing approaches. The model requires an input and the year of the forecast and predicts the sector-wise energy demand. Forecasts up to the year 2025 are compared with those of the regression model, the artificial neural network model trained by back-propagation, and the artificial neural network model trained by harmony search algorithm to exhibit its effectiveness.

Comparative evaluation of back-propagation neural network learning algorithms and empirical correlations for prediction of oil PVT properties in Iran oilfields

This paper presents a new approach to improve the performance of neural network method to PVT oil properties prediction. The true value of PVT properties which is determined based on the accurate data is a challenge of the petroleum industry. The main goal of the following investigation would be the performance comparison of various back-propagation learning algorithms in neural network that could be applied for PVT prediction. Up to now, no procedure has been presented to determine the network structure for some complicated cases, therefore; design and production of neural network would be almost dependent on the user's experience. To prevent this problem, neural network based recommended procedure in this study was applied to present the advantages. To show the performance of this procedure, several learning algorithms were investigated for comparison. One of the most common problems in neural network design is the topology and the parameter value accuracy that if those elements selection was correctly and optimally, the designer would achieve better results. Since, fluids of different regions have varying hydrocarbon properties, therefore, the empirical correlations in different hydrocarbon systems should be investigated to find their accuracies and limitations. In this study, an investigation of different empirical correlations along with the artificial neural networks in Iran oilfields has been presented. Then, the new model of artificial neural network for prediction of PVT oil properties in Iran crude oil presented. To test this new method, it was evaluated by collecting dataset from 23 different oilfields in Iran (south, central, western and continental shelf). In this study, two networks for prediction of bubble point pressure values (P_b) and the oil formation volume factor at bubble point (B_ob) were designed. The parameters and topology of the optimum neural networks were determined and in order to consider the effect of these networks designing on results, their performances were compared with various empirical correlations. According to comparison between the obtained results, it shows that the improved method presented has better performance rather than empirical and current methods in neural network designing in petroleum applications for these predictions.

Drying kinetics prediction and quality effect of ultrasonic synergy vacuum far-infrared drying of Codonopsis pilosula

By using ultrasonic synergy vacuum far-infrared drying (US-VFID), the effects of different conditions on the drying kinetics, functional properties, and microstructure of Codonopsis pilosula slices were studied. The sparrow search algorithm (SSA) was used to optimize the back-propagation (BP) neural network to predict the moisture ratio during drying. With the increase of ultrasonic frequency, power and radiation temperature, the drying time of C. pilosula was shortened. The drying time of US-VFID was 25% shorter than VFID, when radiation temperature was 50°C, ultrasonic power was 48 W, and frequency was 28 kHz. The SSA-BP neural network, the average absolute error prediction was 0.0067. Compared with hot air drying (HAD), the total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of C. pilosula by US-VFID were increased by 29.47% and 8.67%, respectively, and a reduction in color contrast of 16.19%. The dilation and generation of microcapillary of C. pilosula were more obvious. The study revealed US-VFID could be used for the selection and process control of agro-processing methods for C. pilosula products.
