This paper presents an integrated optimal predictor optimization technique termed as Modified Firefly Algorithm-Artificial Neural Network (MFA-ANN) for accurate prediction of Relay Operating Time (ROT). Directional Overcurrent Relays (DOCRs) coordination problem is formulated as Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) problem. The developed techniques have been validated on the IEEE 8-bus systems using MATLAB. The simulation results obtained revealed that the proposed MFA-ANN model has shown the reduction in Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) values as compared with Particle Swarm Optimization-Artificial Neural Network (PSO-ANN) which improved the correlation coefficient of the relay operating time. The proposed MFA-ANN model managed to achieve 0% RMSE value.
