Description
Summary:Parameter identification for complex systems of nonlinear nature is challenging due to the complicated process structure and large number of parameters with different identifiability. The scope of this work is to develop a model-based parameter identification method for a nonlinear industrial winding system. The proposed parameter identification method consists of two key steps: First, enhanced whale optimization algorithm (EWOA) was proposed to alleviate the issues of low search performance and premature convergence of WOA, for which the following enhancements were made to WOA: (1) improvements to the bubble-net strategy of its mathematical model, (2) amendments to the humpback whales’ movements in the direction of the best whales, and (3) imitation of the schooling behavior of humpback whales when chasing prey. Second, EWOA was acted as a training method for artificial neural networks (ANNs)-type multilayer perceptron (MLP), a method referred to as EWOA-MLP. In this, EWOA was applied to train ANNs in order to mitigate the main difficulties of ANNs due to their nonlinear nature and unknown optimal set of control parameters (i.e., weights and biases). The performance of the proposed EWOA-MLP was assessed in modeling the subsystems of the winding process under study and in solving fifteen classification datasets. The effectiveness of EWOA-MLP in both modeling and classification studies was judged by several pertinent assessment metrics. Results of comparison of the proposed EWOA-MLP with other promising methods firmly confirm the promising performance of EWOA-MLP for both local optima avoidance and convergence rate, proving its value and superiority. Moreover, EWOA-MLP was able to outperform other algorithms in modeling the winding process and solving many classification problems.
