A two stage differential evolution algorithm for parameter estimation of proton exchange membrane fuel cell

Precise models predicting fuel cell performance under different operating conditions require accurate parameter identification in a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). Most traditional parameter estimation methodologies depend on optimization algorithms which are limited in their efficiency, convergence speed, and robustness. Typically, existing algorithms fail to achieve a balance between precision and computational efficiency, leading to suboptimal modeling of the complex, nonlinear behavior of PEMFCs. In this paper, we present the two-stage differential evolution (TDE) algorithm, which fills these gaps by using a new mutation strategy that improves solution diversity and speeds up convergence.
