- Abstract: Wind energy is one of the cleanest renewable electricity sources and can help
in addressing the challenge of climate change. One of the drawbacks of
wind-generated energy is the large space necessary to install a wind farm; this
arises from the fact that placing wind turbines in a limited area would hinder
their productivity and therefore not be economically convenient. This naturally
leads to an optimisation problem, which has three specific challenges: (1)
multiple conflicting objectives (2) computationally expensive simulation models
and (3) optimisation over design sets instead of design vectors. The first and
second challenges can be addressed by using surrogate-assisted e.g.\ Bayesian
multi-objective optimisation. However, the traditional Bayesian optimisation
cannot be applied as the optimisation function in the problem relies on design
sets instead of design vectors. This paper extends the applicability of
Bayesian multi-objective optimisation to set based optimisation for solving the
wind farm layout problem. We use a set-based kernel in Gaussian process to
quantify the correlation between wind farms (with a different number of
turbines). The results on the given data set of wind energy and direction
clearly show the potential of using set-based Bayesian multi-objective
optimisation.

We present a novel Bayesian optimization framework specifically tailored to address the limitations of BO.
Our key contribution is a highly scalable, sample-based acquisition function that performs a non-dominated sorting of objectives.
We show that our acquisition function in combination with different Bayesian neural network surrogates is effective in data-intensive environments with a minimal number of iterations.

We introduce a framework for system flexibility that allows us to study the ability of an algorithm to transfer solutions from previous optimization tasks.
We study the flexibility of NSGA-II, which we extend by two variants: 1) varying goals, that optimize solutions for two tasks simultaneously to obtain in-between source solutions expected to be more adaptable, and 2) active-inactive genotype, that accommodates different possibilities that can be activated or deactivated.
Results show that adaption with standard NSGA-II greatly reduces the number of evaluations required for optimization to a target goal, while the proposed variants further improve the adaption costs.

Quality diversity algorithms can be used to create a diverse set of solutions to inform engineers' intuition.
But quality diversity is not efficient in very expensive problems, needing 100.000s of evaluations.
We show that we can produce better machine learning models by producing training data with quality diversity.

Systems [84.7485307269572]
Contextual Bayesian optimization (CBO) is a powerful framework for sequential decision-making given side information.
In this setting, the learner receives context (e.g., weather conditions) at each round, and has to choose an action (e.g., turbine parameters)
Standard algorithms assume no cost for switching their decisions at every round, but in many practical applications, there is a cost associated with such changes, which should be minimized.

Finding the optimal design of a hydrodynamic or aerodynamic surface is often impossible due to the expense of evaluating the cost functions.
We propose a methodology to create the design space using morphing that we call it Design-by-Morphing (DbM)
We apply this shape optimization strategy to maximize the power output of a hydrokinetic turbine.

Robust design optimization is traditionally considered when uncertainties are mainly affecting the objective function.
The resulting nested optimization problem may be solved using a general-purpose solver, herein the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II)
The proposed approach consists of sequentially carrying out NSGA-II while using an adaptively built Kriging model to estimate the quantiles.

A wind farm controller is required to match the farm's power production with a power demand imposed by the grid operator.
This is a non-trivial optimization problem, as complex dependencies exist between the wind turbines.
We propose a new learning method for wind farm control that leverages the sparse wind farm structure to factorize the optimization problem.

In this work we rigorously analyse conventional and non-conventional assumptions inherent to Bayesian optimisation.
We conclude that the majority of hyper- parameter tuning tasks exhibit heteroscedasticity and non-stationarity.
We hope these findings may serve as guiding principles, both for practitioners and for further research in the field.
