Abstract

In this work we design an advanced Evolutionary Algorithm for optimizing a Kalman Filter load forecasting model. The EA employs parallel architecture and an advanced mutation operator called the "Selection Follower". Its performance is benchmarked with that of the Expectation-Maximization algorithm in minimizing the mean-square-error of the KF prediction. Results show that although the EA requires more function evaluations, it outperforms the EM algorithm consistently.
