City Manager Compensation and Performance : An Artificial Intelligence Approach

نویسنده

  • Jean X. Zhang
چکیده

This chapter proposes a nonlinear artificial Higher Order Neural Network (HONN) model to study the relation between manager compensation and performance in the governmental sector. Using a HONN simulator, this study analyzes city manager compensation as a function of local government performance, and compares the results with those from a linear regression model. This chapter shows that the nonlinear model generated from HONN has a smaller Root Mean Squared Error (Root MSE) of 0.0020 as compared to 0.06598 from a linear regression model. This study shows that artificial HONN is an effective tool in modeling city manager compensation.

Solution of Multi-Objective optimal reactive power dispatch using pareto optimality particle swarm optimization method

For multi-objective optimal reactive power dispatch (MORPD), a new approach is proposed where simultaneous minimization of the active power transmission loss, the bus voltage deviation and the voltage stability index of a power system are achieved. Optimal settings of continuous and discrete control variables (e.g. generator voltages, tap positions of tap changing transformers and the number of...

Artificial Intelligence Based Approach for Identification of Current Transformer Saturation from Faults in Power Transformers

Protection systems have vital role in network reliability in short circuit mode and proper operating for relays. Current transformer often in transient and saturation under short circuit mode causes mal-operation of relays which will have undesirable effects. Therefore, proper and quick identification of Current transformer saturation is so important. In this paper, an Artificial Neural Network...
