Optimal Sensor Placement for Output Estimation Using an Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm with Pre-filter

Sensor placement for maximizing the estimation performance of the Kalman filter is an NP-hard optimization problem. Furthermore, its feasible set grows combinatorially with the candidate locations and the number of sensors. In this paper, we study this sensor placement problem for a 3D thermoelastic system modelled as a discrete-time linear stochastic model. We use the Novel Binary Artificial Bee Colony (NBABC) algorithm with a Gramian-based pre-filter to reduce the computational complexity. Our results show the efficiency and the fast convergence of the proposed approach.
