盒粒子滤波是一种新的基于粒子滤波研发的新的滤波算法(Box Particle filter is a new filtering algorithm based on particle filter.)

是由Smith提出的一种新的非线性和非平稳信号分析方法。由于LMD是依据信号本身的信息进行自适应分解的，产生的PF分量具有真实的物理意义，由此得到的时频分布能够清晰准确地反映出信号能量在空间各尺度上的分布规律。(It is a new nonlinear and non-stationary signal analysis method proposed by Smith. Because LMD decomposes the signal itself adaptively, the PF c

把分解信号分解出的功能分量(product function，简称PF)(Functional component that decomposes the decomposition signal)

借用MFO算法实现对于火电机组调度问题的优化，在处理约束变量时使用了stochastic ranking的方法(The MFO algorithm is adopted to optimize the scheduling problems of thermal power units. When dealing with constraint variables, the stochastic ranking method is adopted)
