The status quo of control in water distribution networks (WDN) relies on simple, rule-based control strategies to operate pumps and valves. For example, pumps are switched on/off if a tank's water level---a local measurement---is below/above a certain threshold. As an alternative to localized, rule-based control, network-driven control that utilize WDN topology and measurements can be ***, network-driven control of WDNs is very difficult as hydraulic models are nonconvex, valve and pump models form non-trivial, combinatorial logic, and water demand patterns are uncertain. Prior research on control of WDNs addressed major research challenges, yet mostly adopted simplified hydraulic models, WDN topologies, and rudimentary valve/pump modeling. This Work-in-Progress showcases the potential of network-driven control of WDNs. The proposed approach amounts to solving a series of convex optimization problems that graciously scale to large networks. Simple case studies are included showcasing early results, and applications of the proposed optimization methods to other WDN applications are discussed.

Long-term situation prediction plays a crucial role for intelligent vehicles. A major challenge still to overcome is the prediction of complex downtown scenarios with multiple road users, e.g., pedestrians, bikes, and motor vehicles, interacting with each other. This contribution tackles this challenge by combining a Bayesian filtering technique for environment representation, and machine learning as long-term predictor. More specifically, a dynamic occupancy grid map is utilized as input to a deep convolutional neural network. This yields the advantage of using spatially distributed velocity estimates from a single time step for prediction, rather than a raw data sequence, alleviating common problems dealing with input time series of multiple sensors. Furthermore, convolutional neural networks have the inherent characteristic of using context information, enabling the implicit modeling of road user interaction. Pixel-wise balancing is applied in the loss function counteracting the extreme imbalance between static and dynamic cells. One of the major advantages is the unsupervised learning character due to fully automatic label generation. The presented algorithm is trained and evaluated on multiple hours of recorded sensor data and compared to Monte-Carlo simulation. Experiments show the ability to model complex interactions.

This article presents an enhanced Jaya optimization algorithm (EJOA) for solving a multi objective function (MOF) of the optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) problem. This solution aims to determine the optimal scheduling of control variables to achieve the ORPD primary objectives as well as respecting equality and inequality constrains. This problem is concerned with minimizing the real power losses (P L ) and voltage deviation (VD) in power systems. The ORPD problem can be formulated as a non-linear and complex framework. The MOF is dependent on a combination of weighted sum method and fuzzy logic to find the best compromise solution of the competitive objective functions (COFs). For proving the effectiveness of the proposed EJOA, two test systems, IEEE 30-bus system and the network of west delta as a real system (WDRN), are used to prove the capability of the proposed Jaya algorithm with weight sum method and fuzzy member ship for solving a multi-objective ORPD problem. The obtained results confirm that the proposed Jaya algorithm is an effective tool that can makes a noticeable enhancement on solving ORPD problem.

Vision-based multi-object tracking has many potential applications in intelligent transportation systems and intelligent vehicles. Tracking by detection, as a popular approach to multi-object tracking, first obtains detection responses from video sequence and then associates them into tracks for every object. Existing tracking-by-detection methods can work well in constrained scenarios. However, in those complicated scenarios with occlusion and adverse illumination conditions, the detection stage is deteriorated and thus makes it difficult to track objects accurately. In this paper, we present a robust tracker that represents object appearance using stable temporal features and associates the detection responses through a two-step association process. We propose to use Bi-LSTM (Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory) to model object appearance and obtain reliable temporal features. Then, we estimate the affinity between tracks and detections based on multiple cues including appearance, motion and shape, and integrate the affinity into a two-step association procedure. Our method is verified on MOT datasets and the experimental results are promising as compared to the state-of-the-art.
