RESUMO
This work proposed a new method to optimize the antenna S-parameter using a Golden Sine mechanism-based Honey Badger Algorithm that employs Tent chaos (GST-HBA). The Honey Badger Algorithm (HBA) is a promising optimization method that similar to other metaheuristic algorithms, is prone to premature convergence and lacks diversity in the population. The Honey Badger Algorithm is inspired by the behavior of honey badgers who use their sense of smell and honeyguide birds to move toward the honeycomb. Our proposed approach aims to improve the performance of HBA and enhance the accuracy of the optimization process for antenna S-parameter optimization. The approach we propose in this study leverages the strengths of both tent chaos and the golden sine mechanism to achieve fast convergence, population diversity, and a good tradeoff between exploitation and exploration. We begin by testing our approach on 20 standard benchmark functions, and then we apply it to a test suite of 8 S-parameter functions. We perform tests comparing the outcomes to those of other optimization algorithms, the result shows that the suggested algorithm is superior.
RESUMO
Type-1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a challenging disorder which essentially involves regulation of the glucose levels to avoid hyperglycemia as well as hypoglycemia. For this purpose, this research paper proposes and develops control algorithms using an intelligent predictive control model, which is based on a UVA/Padova metabolic simulator. The primary objective of the designed control laws is to provide an automatic blood glucose control in insulin-dependent patients so as to improve their life quality and to reduce the need of an extremely demanding self-management plan. Various linear and nonlinear control algorithms have been explored and implemented on the estimated model. Linear techniques include the Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) and Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR), and nonlinear control strategy includes the Sliding Mode Control (SMC), which are implemented in this research work for continuous monitoring of glucose levels. Performance comparison based on simulation results demonstrated that SMC proved to be most efficient in terms of regulating glucose profile to a reference level of 70 mg/dL compared to the classical linear techniques. A brief comparison is presented between the linear techniques (PID and LQR), and nonlinear technique (SMC) for analysis purposes proving the efficacy of the design.
