Abstract

In this chapter, optimization algorithms of GA, ACO, and PSO are introduced. They are combined with SVM and ANN and show convenience in experiments. Also multi-objective optimization is introduced, like MOCell, AbYSS, OMOPSO, and SPEA2. They are compared in many aspects. Among them, OMOPSO and MOCell are the proposed algorithms for online multi-object optimization of coal-fired boilers.
