This paper proposes a hybrid variant of mean-variance mapping optimization (MVMO-SH) for solving such problem considering the non-convex objective functions. The new proposed method is a hybrid variant of the original mean-variance mapping optimization algorithm (MVMO) with the embedded local search and multi-parent crossover to enhance its global search ability and improve solution quality for optimization problems. The proposed MVMO-SH is tested on different non-convex ED problem including valve point effects, multiple fuels and prohibited operating zones characteristics. The result comparisons from the proposed method with other methods in the literature have indicated that the proposed method is more robust and provides better solution quality than the others. Therefore, the proposed MVMO-SH is a promising method for solving the complex ED problems in power systems. © 2017, IGI Global. date: 2017 publisher: IGI Global official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85048480523&doi=10.4018%2fIJSIR.2017100103&partnerID=40&md5=9d94340213630ca17dbb0130d5c10a42 id_number: 10.4018/IJSIR.2017100103 full_text_status: none publication: International Journal of Swarm Intelligence Research volume: 8 number: 4 pagerange: 34-59 refereed: TRUE issn: 19479263 citation: Khoa, T.H. and Vasant, P.M. and Singh, B.S.M. and Dieu, V.N.
