This paper deals with a comparative evaluation of nonlinear controllers based on the linear regression technique, which is a machine learning algorithm for maximum power point tracking. In the past decade, most photovoltaic systems have been equipped with classical algorithms such as perturb and observe, hill climbing, and incremental conductance. The simplicity of these techniques and their ease of implementation were seen as the main reasons for their utilization in photovoltaic systems.
