Wind power as a renewable source of energy has numerous economic, environmental, and social benefits. To enhance and control renewable wind power, it is vital to utilize models that predict wind speed with high accuracy. In the current study, for predicting wind speed at target stations in the...

Distributed renewable energy systems are now widely installed in many buildings, transforming the buildings into 'electricity prosumers'. Additionally, managing shared energy usage and trade in smart buildings continues to be a significant difficulty. The main goal of solving such problems is to...

The combined scheduling of hydro, thermal and hybrid energy (i.e., wind and solar) is attracting more and more attention nowadays. This paper explores the contribution of renewable energy sources in the traditional hydrothermal scheduling problem in order to overcome the prevailing issues like...

In many fields, we come across problems where we want to optimize several conflicting objectives simultaneously. To find a good solution for such multi-objective optimization problems, an approximation of the Pareto set is often generated. In this paper, we consider the approximation of Pareto...

A fast method based on coordinate-wise descent algorithms is developed to solve portfolio optimization problems in which asset weights are constrained by Lq norms for 1=q=2. The method is first applied to solve a minimum variance portfolio (mvp) optimization problem in which asset weights are...
