This paper proposes an improved equilibrium optimizer (IEO) for determining optimal location and effective size of distributed generation units (DGUs) in the distribution systems in order to minimize the total power loss on distribution branches, investment cost, and operation and maintenance cost. To reach good solutions of DGUs placement, limits...

... summary, IEO can reach the best performance and the most stable search ability among the four run methods. Table 6 is a summary of two single objectives, and corresponding power loss and cost obtained by implemented and compared methods. The first objective and the corresponding power loss of IEO are 0.3206 and 0.07197 MW, whereas those of the second-best method (EO) and the worst method (GA [41]) are (0.3207 and 0.0720 MW) and (0.3962 and 0.0889 MW), respectively. ...Similar publications
Background:
The statistical plan of a phase II trial should balance minimizing the premature termination of potentially beneficial therapies (i.e. false negatives) and the further, costly testing of ineffective drugs (i.e. false positives). We sought to examine the methodology, reporting, and bias in the interpretation of outcomes of phase II onco...
