Power Loss Minimization using Optimal Power Flow based on Firefly Algorithm [PDF]
Conventional methods are commonly used to solve optimal power flow problems in power system networks. However, conventional methods are not suitable for solving large and non-linear optimal power flow problems as they are influenced by initialization values and more likely be trapped in local optimum.
