The face plays an essential role in identifying people and showing their emotions in society. The human ability to recognize faces is remarkable. But face recognition is a fundamental problem in many computer programs. Due to the inherent complexities of the face and the many changes in its features, different algorithms for face recognition have been introduced in the last 20 years. Face recognition methods that are based on the structure of the face are unsupervised methods that produce good results compared to the linear changes that occur in the image. In this article, the Gabor algorithm, which is the origin of face recognition algorithms, has been described. Over the past decade, most of the research in the area of pattern classification has emphasized the use of the Gabor filter bank for extracting features. Because the Gabor algorithm has shortcomings, researchers have introduced a new method that is a combination of Gabor and PCA. After the introduction of the Gabor method, more complete and accurate algorithms have been introduced, such as Boosting algorithms, which we have briefly explained in this article. Also, here are the results of the comparison made by the researchers between Boosting and Gabor algorithms. The results show that Boosting-based algorithms have performed better compared to Gabor-based algorithms.
Face recognition methods are computational algorithms that follow aim to identify a person's image according to the bank of images they have of different people. So far, various methods have been proposed for face recognition, which can generally be divided into two categories based on face structure and based on facial features. Based on this, many algorithms have been introduced and used for face recognition. Genetic algorithm has been one of the successful algorithms for face recognition. In this article, we first briefly explained the genetic algorithm and then used the combination of neural network and genetic algorithm to select and classify facial features The presented method has been evaluated using individual features and combined features of the face region. Composite features perform better than face region features in experimental tests. Also, a comprehensive comparison with other facial recognition techniques available in the FERET database is included in this paper. The proposed method has produced a classification accuracy of 94%, which is a significant improvement and the best classification accuracy among the results established in other studies.
In deregulated electricity markets, generation companies (GENCO) try to maximize their economic benefits considering the electricity demand, transmission network condition, and other participants’ behaviors. The increasing penetration of renewable sources such as wind power generation with intermittent nature poses several challenges to the participation of GENCOs in the electricity market. Thus, this paper presents a stochastic bilevel optimization model to determine the coordinated bidding strategy of a wind-thermal GENCO with the aim of maximizing its profit in the day-ahead and real-time balancing market. Herein, the model aims to maximize the profit of GENCO in the day-ahead and the balancing market in the upper-level problem while minimizing the operation cost of the system in the lower-level problem. The uncertainties of wind power generation and electricity demand are modeled by defining a set of scenarios considering their mutual correlation using the copula technique. Additionally, incorporating AC power flow constraints in the proposed optimization model offers a better solution to the coordinated bidding strategy of the wind-thermal GENCO. Further, the nonlinear AC power flow equations are linearized using the piecewise approximation technique to reduce the computational complexity and enhance the accuracy of the optimal solution. In the end, the developed algorithm is implemented on the IEEE 24-bus RTS, and the simulation results are provided to validate the efficiency and applicability of the proposed coordinated bidding strategy model. The results advocate that the participation of the thermal unit along with the wind farm might mitigate the risk of uncertainties, but it causes an intense increase in the locational marginal price of the system. Importantly, the simulation results indicate the computational efficiency of the model by developing an exact AC power flow model without compromising the results. Notably, it has been found that the profit of the wind-thermal GENCO would be increased by 35.2% employing the copula technique to model the mutual correlation of uncertain parameters.
