An improved whale optimization algorithm for the model order reduction of large-scale systems
Abstract
Abstract An improved whale optimization algorithm (IWOA) is developed for the model order reduction (MOR) of large-scale systems (LSS) in this paper. An equivalent reduced order model (ROM) for the higher-order system (HOS) is derived by considering integral square error (ISE) as the objective function using IWOA. Many practical systems of single-input and single-output (SISO) and multi-input and multi-output (MIMO) systems are considered to examine the worth of the proposed technique. The powerfulness and robustness of the proposed design technique are tested on various typical examples. Several simulation results have been reported to demonstrate the efficacy of IWOA. To prove the potentiality of the suggested technique, the results have been compared with the familiar classical MOR techniques as well as other heuristic algorithms available in the literature.
