  1. 21. Model Predictive Control Used for Optimal Heating in Commercial Buildings

    University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteori

    Author : Fredrik Rubin; [2021]
    Keywords : Optimal Heating in Commercial Buildings; Model Predictive Control; Long Short Term Memory; Optimal Uppvärmning av Kommersiell Byggnad; Model Predictive Control; Long Short Term Memory;

    Abstract : Model Predictive Control (MPC) is an optimization method used in a wide range of applications. However, in the housing sector its use is still limited. In this project, the possibilities of using an easily scalable MPC controller to optimize the heating of a building, is examined and evaluated. READ MORE

  3. 22. Evolutionary Optimization Applied to Usage of Solar Energy for Powering a Heat Pump

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för programvaruteknik

    Author : Henrik Thomasson; [2021]
    Keywords : evolutionary algorithms; PV-panels; simulated annealing; hill climbing;

    Abstract : This paper researches the impact of different settings on an Infinite Impulse Response-filter (IIR-filter) used on a NIBE heat pump in combination with photovoltaic panels (PV-panel). The IIR-filter is applied to the level of the PV-panel’s power and its output is used by the heat pump’s control to harvest as much solar power as possible for supplying the heat pump with electricity.

  4. 23. Self-Optimization of Camera Hardware

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Simon Kristoffersson Lind; Johannes Tykesson; [2021]
    Keywords : Optimization; Black-box optimization; Evolutionary; Bayesian; Simulated Annealing; DIRECT; Particle Swarm; Simplex; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to investigate the automatic tuning of hardware parameters in a camera's image processing pipeline. In order to solve the tuning problem, it is formulated as a black-box optimization problem centered around a physical camera unit. Optimization is performed by comparing the camera's output to a reference image. READ MORE

  5. 24. Sensitivity analysis in high-dimensional space

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Shuyi Qin; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Calculating the atomic charge is one of the challenging parts in the molecular simulation process which is an important goal in computational chemistry. In this thesis, we used the Alexandria Charge Model to generate charges. READ MORE

  6. 25. Comparison of Two Constraint Solvers for University Timetable Creation with Focus on Algorithm Choices

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Herman Karlsson; Sebastian Williams; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The problem of finding an optimal schedule for universities based on their numerous constraints is NP-complete and thus requires heuristics to get good solutions. Our study has compared two constraint solvers that employ different combinations of heuristics to determine which is more suitable for universities. READ MORE
