A hierarchical architecture for increasing efficiency of large photovoltaic plants under non-homogeneous solar irradiation

Solar Energy (ISSN: 0038-092X) Bài báo Tạp chí SCI

Research

Under non-homogeneous solar irradiation, photovoltaic (PV) panels receive different solar irradiance, resulting in a decrease in efficiency of the PV generation system. There are a few technical options to fix this issue that goes under the name of mismatch. One of these is the reconfiguration of the PV generation system, namely changing the connections of the PV panels from the initial configuration to the optimal one. Such technique has been widely considered for small systems, due to the excessive number of required switches. In this paper, the authors propose a new method for increasing the efficiency of large PV systems under non-homogeneous solar irradiation using Series-Parallel (SP) topology.
In the first part of the paper, the authors propose a method containing two key points: a switching matrix to change the connection of PV panels based on SP topology and the proof that the SP-based reconfiguration method can increase the efficiency of the photovoltaic system up to 50%.
In the second part, the authors propose the extension of the method proposed in the first part to improve the efficiency of large solar generation systems by means of a two-levels architecture to minimize the cost of fab- rication of the switching matrix.

An efficient image retrieval method using adaptive weights

Applied Intelligence (ISSN: 0924-669X) Bài báo Tạp chí SCI

Research

In existing image retrieval systems using a multipoint query, the neighborhood of the various optimal query points is determined in the same way. The different nature of the various optimal query points was not taken into consideration. This approach confines the performance of the system. To overcome this confinement, in this paper, we propose an image retrieval method through adaptive weights (Aweight) which is possible to compute the various optimal query points, optimal weights and improved distance functions to improve accuracy. In addition, our method constructs clusters without re-clustering the whole feedback image set. The experiments were performed on a set of 10,800 images and the results demonstrate that the proposed method improves performance of system in terms of accuracy.

Increasing efficiency of photovoltaic systems under non-homogeneous solar irradiation using improved Dynamic Programming methods

Solar Energy (ISSN: 0038-092X) Bài báo Tạp chí SCI

Research

The paper presents a complete technique, based on the combination of algorithms, devoted to minimize losses and increase efficiency of Total Cross Tied (TCT) connected photovoltaic (PV) systems under non- homogeneous solar irradiation, based on irradiance equalization criterion. Irradiance equalization is achieved by changing the connections of the solar panels adaptively by a dynamic switching matrix so that total solar radiation on parallel circuits is the most equalized.

In this paper, the authors introduce two algorithms. The first one is SmartChoice (SC) algorithm, which is combined with Dynamic Programming (DP) in order to create a hybrid method and obtain better results as compared to established methods for irradiance equalization. The second one is the control algorithm improvement method from Munkres’ Assignment Algorithm (MAA) that helps to increase pro- cessing speed and lengthen the lifetime of the solar power system by 56% compared with the older MAA.

By emulating and experiencing the operation of the PV system under non-homogeneous irradiation condition, obtained results show efficiency and benefits of the proposed method applied to the solar power system operation while lengthening the lifetime of the switching matrix.

Dynamic programming and Munkres algorithm for optimal photovoltaic arrays reconfiguration

Solar Energy (ISSN: 0038-092X) Bài báo Tạp chí SCI

Research

In this paper, an original formulation of the control problem for optimal PV array reconfiguration, following a Total Cross Tied layout, is proposed. The formulation follows the well-known subset sum problem, which is a special case of the knapsack problem. The reconfiguration is a measure devoted to mitigate the mismatch effect and maximize the output power of small photovoltaic plants under non-homogeneous working conditions. Therefore, reconfiguration means changing the connections of the solar panels adaptively by a dynamic switching matrix. The control system implements an easy dynamic programming algorithm to change the switches layout.
The use of the Munkres assignment method in a post-processing module makes the algorithm able to obtain the optimum configuration for which it is possible to balance and minimize the aging of the switches within the switching matrix.

Graph-based semisupervised and manifold learning for image retrieval with SVM-based relevant feedback

Journal of Intelligent & Fuzzy Systems (ISSN: 1064-1246) Bài báo Tạp chí SCIE

Research

Over the years, many content-based image retrieval (CBIR) methods, which use SVM-based relevant feedback, are proposed to improve the performance of image retrieval systems. However, the performance of these methods is low due to the following limitations: (1) ignore the unlabeled samples; (2) only exploit the global Euclidean structure and (3) not taking advantage of the various useful aspects of the object. In order to solve the first problem, we propose a graph-based semisupervised learning (GSEL), which can add positive samples and construct balanced sets. With the second problem, we propose a manifold learning for dimensional reduction (MAL), which exploits the geometric properties of the manifold data. With the third problem, we propose a combination of classifiers by aspect (CCA), which exploits the various useful aspects of the object. Experimental results reported in the Corel Photo Gallery (with 31,695 images), which demonstrate the accuracy of our proposed method in improving the performance of the content-based image retrieval system.

An efficient semantic – Related image retrieval method

Expert Systems with Applications (ISSN: 0957-4174) Bài báo Tạp chí SCIE

Research

Many previous techniques were designed to retrieve semantic images in a particular neighborhood of the image query and thus bypassing the semantically related images in the whole feature space. Several methods were originally designed to retrieve semantically images in the same space feature but with low precision. In this paper, we propose a semantic - Related Image Retrieval method (SRIR), which can retrieve semantic images of the same space in high precision. Our method takes advantage of the user feedback to determine the semantic importance of each query and the importance of each feature. In addition, the retrieval time of our method does not increase with the number of user feedback. We also provide experimental results to demonstrate the effectiveness of our method.

An efficient content based image retrieval method for retrieving images

International journal of innovative computing, information and control (ISSN: 1349-4198) Bài báo Tạp chí SCIE

Research

Quality, efficiency and scalability are the key issues in the design of image retrieval systems for large image databases. Although the quality of image retrieval methods still depends strongly on the application domain, color based retrieval techniques have been shown to be competitive and generally applicable. However, the retrieval algorithms based on color histograms largely ignore spatial information in the matching process. In this paper, we propose a technique to improve the retrieval process by image regions matching. We carried out an experiment on an image database containing 8000 images. The experimental results show that our proposed technique is more effective than the other retrieval techniques such as color histogram based and Color Based Clustering based techniques.
