Maintenance management of a transmission substation with optimization
Peter Kitak, Lovro Belak, Jože Pihler, Janez Ribič, 2021, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: The paper deals with the reliability-centered maintenance (RCM) of a transmission substation. The process of the planning and actual performance of maintenance was carried out using an optimization algorithm. This maintenance procedure represents the maintenance management and included reliability of the power system operation, maintenance costs, and associated risks. The originality of the paper lies in the integrated treatment of all maintenance processes that are included in the pre-processing and used in the optimization process for reliability-centered maintenance. The optimization algorithm of transmission substation maintenance was tested in practice on the equipment and components of an existing 400/110–220/110 kV substation in the Slovenian electricity transmission system. A comparison analysis was also carried out of the past time-based maintenance (TBM) and the new reliability-centered maintenance (RCM), on the basis of the optimization algorithm.

Constrained multi-objective optimization of simulated tree pruning with heterogeneous criteria
Damjan Strnad, Štefan Kohek, 2021, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: Virtual pruning of simulated fruit tree models is a useful functionality provided by software tools for computer-aided horticultural education and research. It also enables algorithmic pruning optimization with respect to a set of quantitative objectives, which is important for analytical purposes and potential applications in automated pruning. However, the existing studies in pruning optimization focus on a single type of objective, such as light distribution within the crown. In this paper, we propose the use of heterogeneous objectives for discrete multi-objective optimization of simulated tree pruning. In particular, the average light intake, crown shape, and tree balance are used to observe the emergence of different pruning patterns in the non-dominated solution sets. We also propose the use of independent constraint objectives as a new mechanism to confine overfitting of solutions to individual pruning criteria. Finally, we perform the comparison of NSGA-II, SPEA2, and MOEA/D-EAM on this task. The results demonstrate that SPEA2 and MOEA/D-EAM, which use external solution archives, can produce better sets of non-dominated solutions than NSGA-II.

Overcoming stagnation in metaheuristic algorithms with MsMA’s adaptive meta-level partitioning
Matej Črepinšek, Marjan Mernik, Miloš Beković, Matej Pintarič, Matej Moravec, Miha Ravber, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: Stagnation remains a persistent challenge in optimization with metaheuristic algorithms (MAs), often leading to premature convergence and inefficient use of the remaining evaluation budget. This study introduces , a novel meta-level strategy that externally monitors MAs to detect stagnation and adaptively partitions computational resources. When stagnation occurs, divides the optimization run into partitions, restarting the MA for each partition with function evaluations guided by solution history, enhancing efficiency without modifying the MA’s internal logic, unlike algorithm-specific stagnation controls. The experimental results on the CEC’24 benchmark suite, which includes 29 diverse test functions, and on a real-world Load Flow Analysis (LFA) optimization problem demonstrate that MsMA consistently enhances the performance of all tested algorithms. In particular, Self-Adapting Differential Evolution (jDE), Manta Ray Foraging Optimization (MRFO), and the Coral Reefs Optimization Algorithm (CRO) showed significant improvements when paired with MsMA. Although MRFO originally performed poorly on the CEC’24 suite, it achieved the best performance on the LFA problem when used with MsMA. Additionally, the combination of MsMA with Long-Term Memory Assistance (LTMA), a lookup-based approach that eliminates redundant evaluations, resulted in further performance gains and highlighted the potential of layered meta-strategies. This meta-level strategy pairing provides a versatile foundation for the development of stagnation-aware optimization techniques.

High-performance deployment operational Data analytics of pre-trained multi-label classification architectures with differential-evolution-based hyperparameter optimization (AutoDEHypO)
Teo Prica, Aleš Zamuda, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: This article presents a high-performance-computing differential-evolution-based hyperparameter optimization automated workflow (AutoDEHypO), which is deployed on a petascale supercomputer and utilizes multiple GPUs to execute a specialized fitness function for machine learning (ML). The workflow is designed for operational analytics of energy efficiency. In this differential evolution (DE) optimization use case, we analyze how energy efficiently the DE algorithm performs with different DE strategies and ML models. The workflow analysis considers key factors such as DE strategies and automated use case configurations, such as an ML model architecture and dataset, while monitoring both the achieved accuracy and the utilization of computing resources, such as the elapsed time and consumed energy. While the efficiency of a chosen DE strategy is assessed based on a multi-label supervised ML accuracy, operational data about the consumption of resources of individual completed jobs obtained from a Slurm database are reported. To demonstrate the impact on energy efficiency, using our analysis workflow, we visualize the obtained operational data and aggregate them with statistical tests that compare and group the energy efficiency of the DE strategies applied in the ML models.

Incorporating enriched empirical models into optimization algorithm to enhance biogas production
Tina Kegl, Andreja Goršek, Darja Pečar, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: This paper introduces a novel approach to optimization of the anaerobic co-digestion (AcoD) process by developing enriched versions of first-order kinetic, modified Gompertz, and single-stage combined kinetic models. The key innovation of these enriched models lies in the introduction of new kinetic parameters that depend on both temperature and substrate composition, resulting in a set of new model parameters. These parameters are calibrated simultaneously across various process conditions, unlike existing models where kinetic constants are calibrated for only one operating regime. The enriched models are successfully calibrated and validated with experimental data from a batch AcoD of chicken manure with sawdust and fungal-pretreated Miscanthus; the relative index of agreement is higher than 0.99 for the produced biogas under all considered process conditions. By using the calibrated models to optimize the substrate composition and the AcoD process temperature profile, the results indicate that biogas production can increase by up to 50 %. Moreover, the proposed optimization allows for a favorable cost-benefit ratio; the estimated net energy gain can increase by up to 40 %. The proposed enriched models enable accurate prediction of biogas production at various process conditions and optimization of the AcoD process, representing a significant advancement over existing empirical models.

Comparative study of modern differential evolution algorithms : perspectives on mechanisms and performance
Janez Brest, Mirjam Sepesy Maučec, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: Since the discovery of the Differential Evolution algorithm, new and improved versions have continuously emerged. In this paper, we review selected algorithms based on Differential Evolution that have been proposed in recent years. We examine the mechanisms integrated into them and compare the performance of algorithms. To compare their performances, statistical comparisons were used as they enable us to draw reliable conclusions about the algorithms’ performances. We use the Wilcoxon signed-rank test for pairwise comparisons and the Friedman test for multiple comparisons. Subsequently, the Mann–Whitney U-score test was added. We conducted not only a cumulative analysis of algorithms, but we also focused on their performances regarding the function family (i.e., unimodal, multimodal, hybrid, and composition functions). Experimental results of algorithms were obtained on problems defined for the CEC’24 Special Session and Competition on Single Objective Real Parameter Numerical Optimization. Problem dimensions of 10, 30, 50, and 100 were analyzed. In this paper, we highlight promising mechanisms for further development and improvements based on the study of the selected algorithms.

Tackling blind spot challenges in metaheuristics algorithms through exploration and exploitation
Matej Črepinšek, Miha Ravber, Luka Mernik, Marjan Mernik, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek

Opis: This paper defines blind spots in continuous optimization problems as global optima that are inherently difficult to locate due to deceptive, misleading, or barren regions in the fitness landscape. Such regions can mislead the search process, trap metaheuristic algorithms (MAs) in local optima, or hide global optima in isolated regions, making effective exploration particularly challenging. To address the issue of premature convergence caused by blind spots, we propose LTMA+ (Long-Term Memory Assistance Plus), a novel meta-approach that enhances the search capabilities of MAs. LTMA+ extends the original Long-Term Memory Assistance (LTMA) by introducing strategies for handling duplicate evaluations, shifting the search away from over-exploited regions and dynamically toward unexplored areas and thereby improving global search efficiency and robustness. We introduce the Blind Spot benchmark, a specialized test suite designed to expose weaknesses in exploration by embedding global optima within deceptive fitness landscapes. To validate LTMA+, we benchmark it against a diverse set of MAs selected from the EARS framework, chosen for their different exploration mechanisms and relevance to continuous optimization problems. The tested MAs include ABC, LSHADE, jDElscop, and the more recent GAOA and MRFO. The experimental results show that LTMA+ improves the success rates for all the tested MAs on the Blind Spot benchmark statistically significantly, enhances solution accuracy, and accelerates convergence to the global optima compared to standard MAs with and without LTMA. Furthermore, evaluations on standard benchmarks without blind spots, such as CEC’15 and the soil model problem, confirm that LTMA+ maintains strong optimization performance without introducing significant computational overhead.

Integrating Multi-Physics Modeling within Multi-Objective Optimization to Enhance the Performance and Efficiency of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines : doktorska disertacija
Mitja Garmut, 2025, doktorska disertacija

Opis: This Dissertation focuses on the optimization of an Interior Permanent Magnet (IPM) machine for handheld battery-powered tools, aiming to enhance performance and efficiency. The research integrates multi-physics modeling, including electromagnetic Finite Element Method (FEM) and thermal models, to evaluate machine performance under various operating conditions. The performance is evaluated according to selected Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Further, different control methods, such as Field Oriented Control and Square-Wave Control, impact the performance significantly and are incorporated into the optimization process. Due to the computational challenges of FEM-based performance evaluations in Multi-Objective Optimization (MOO), this work utilizes Artificial Neural Network (ANN)-based meta-models, to accelerate the optimization process while preserving accuracy. The developed meta-models capture nonlinear machine characteristics from the FEM model. These meta-models are then used to evaluate machine performance through a combination of analytical and numerical post-processing methods. Four MOO scenarios are presented, each aimed at optimizing the cross-sectional design of IPM machines, to enhance performance and efficiency while reducing mass and cost. Additionally, these scenarios modify the machine’s electromagnetic behavior, to ensure better alignment with the selected control method. By comparing the optimization process of Scenario 1, which uses direct FEM-based evaluation without time reduction measures, to the approach incorporating Artificial Neural Network based meta-models, the total number of individual FEM evaluations decreased from 2.35×10^9 to 2.03×10^5, without almost any loss of accuracy. This reduced the computation time from 297 years to 9.07 days on our standard desktop computer. The obtained ANN-base meta-models can be used further for other optimizations without the need for additional FEM evaluations. In all four optimization scenarios, the use of meta-models enabled the generation of a Pareto front of the optimal solutions, leading to improved KPIs compared to the reference design. The highest relative improvement occurred in Scenario 1, where the selected optimized machine design achieved a 30% increase in power density compared to the reference design.
