“…In addition, these methods may fall into local minima, hence new optimization algorithms have been proposed to avoid the shortcomings of these methods. From these methods; GA [8,9], MFO [10], DE [11,12], PSO [13], MSA [14], EP [15,16], ABC [17], GSA [18], BBO [19], SFLA [20], forced initialized differential evolution algorithm [21], TS [22], MDE [23], SOS [24], BSA [25] and TLBO [26], decentralized decision-making algorithm [27]. The thermal generation units have multiple valves to control the output generated power.…”
