Algorithm 1 is describes the PSO optimization process. A given maximal iteration number and the predefined fitness values can be used as a stop criterion. Algorithm 1. Particle swarm-based optimization algorithm (PSO) 1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6: 7: 8: 9: 10: 11: 12: 13: 14: 15: 16: 17: 18: for i := 1 until total particulas do Initialize particle i information; Initialize random position of particle i; Initialize random velocity of particle i; end for repeat for i := 1 until total particulas do Calculate fitness of particle i; if (fitness better than pBesti ) then Update pBesti with the new position; end if if (fitness better than gBest) then Update gBest with the new position; end if Update velocity of particle i; Update position of particle i; end for until (stopcriterion = true) The main characteristic of the PSO algorithm is the social interaction [6], which makes the individuals able to learn with the group and use the acquired knowledge.
51 in C3)] (4) PSO in Building Fuzzy Systems 43 Note that each data set generates one single rule. Considering a real system, it is very possible that these rules can be conflicting rules. To overcome this problem, one can associate degrees of confidence to each generated rule, using the degree of relevance of each rule term. Equation 5 shows how this degree can be computed: C(Rule) = μ(x1 ) × μ(x2 ) × μ(y), (5) wherein C is degree of Rule and μ(x1), μ(x2) and μ(y) are the degree of relevance of each rule term.
A life cycle cost approach was adopted to evaluate the financial benefit using condition monitoring system, a tool for implementing CBM policy [10]. In [11] a multi-state Markov decision mechanism was used to estimate the wind turbine degradation process based on which the optimal maintenance scheme is devised. Tian et al. [8] developed a CBM method for wind turbine systems, based on the health condition prediction information obtained from ANN prediction models. ANN methods have been used to investigate various problems in wind turbine systems.
