- Abstract
In this paper, an improved marine predators algorithm (IMPA) is proposed to solve the short-term hydrothermal scheduling (STHS) problem. The marine predators algorithm (MPA) owns low diversity of the initial population and is easy to fall into local optima in the optimization process. Facing these challenges, three improvements are presented. Tent map is applied to initialize the population, which makes the population more uniformly distributed. An average fitness preferential strategy is adopted to improve the quality of population, which provides more possibility for MPA to find better solutions. By segmenting the probability factor in fish aggregating devices (FADs) effect on the optimization process, the premature convergence of MPA is improved. Moreover, a selective repair strategy and an economic priority strategy are proposed to handle dynamic water balance of reservoirs and the power balance, respectively. Three hydrothermal test cases are employed to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method, and the results show that IMPA can obtain solutions of high quality. Compared with other methods, IMPA can get better results, which reflects its strong competitiveness in tackling the STHS problem.
