Background: A new algorithm for precise characterisation of rotationally symmetric aspheric surfaces by the conic section and polynomial according to the ISO 10110 standard is described. Methods: The algorithm uses only the iterative linear least squares. It uses fitting the surface form in a combination with terms containing its spatial derivatives that represent infinitesimal transformations of form. Results: The algorithm reaches sub-nanometre residuals even though the aspheric surface is translated and rotated in the space. Conclusion: he algorithm is computationally robust and an influence of local surface imperfections can be easily reduced by use of a criterion for residuals.

A fault-transient synchrophasor is computed over a window of pre-fault and fault samples. A fault synchrophasor is computed over a window of fault samples only. Fault-transient synchrophasors are discarded and are generally not used in the synchrophasor applications. Recently, an algorithm has been proposed to compute fault synchrophasor from fault-transient synchrophasor in phasor data concentrator (PDC). The accuracy of the existing algorithm deteriorates due to fault-induced transients and inaccurate fault starting time. A robust algorithm has been proposed to compute fault synchrophasor from fault-transient synchrophasor in PDC. The proposed algorithm does not use fault starting time in the calculations. It also performs better than the existing algorithm when fault-induced transients are present in the signal. The proposed algorithm is simple, non-iterative and performs satisfactorily in various investigated scenarios. The advantage of the proposed algorithm has been demonstrated in the context of fault location application.

With the rapid progression of communication and localisation of big data over billions of devices, distributed Machine Learning (ML) techniques are emerging to cater for the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based services in a distributed manner. Federated Learning (FL) is such an innovative approach to achieve a privacy-preserved AI that facilitates ML model sharing and aggregation while keeping the participants' data at the original source. However, recent research has investigated threats from poisoning attacks in FL. Several robust algorithms based on techniques such as similarity metrics or anomaly filtering are proposed as solutions. Yet, these approaches do not focus on investigating the intentions of the attackers or providing justifications and evidence for suspecting the behaviour of clients who are considered poisoners. Therefore, we propose SHERPA, a robust algorithm that uses Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) to identify potential poisoners in an FL system. Based on this, we develop a novel algorithm to differentiate poisoners via feature attribution clustering. We launch data poisoning attacks for different scenarios on multiple datasets and showcase our solution to mitigate the attacks. Furthermore, we show that privacy-targeted poisoning attacks can be mitigated with our approach. Accompanying the Explainable AI (XAI) technique for defence, our study reveals the potential for post-hoc feature attributions in countering data poisoning attacks with better explainability and improved justification in eliminating potentially malicious clients in the aggregation process.

Monitoring the photoplethysmogram (PPG) signal is essential for cardiovascular patients in the hospital or at home, as well as for those working in front of a personal computer (PC) at the office every day. Therefore, we developed a wireless PPG mouse that consists of a PC mouse, PPG sensor, and Bluetooth mote. The sensor is located within the PC mouse, therefore, the structure of the ordinary mouse is not changed. A user's thumb can easily touch the surface of a sensor for PPG signal monitoring. However, it is challenging to process the signals collected from the PPG mouse, especially in the cases where the mouse moves quickly or the user performs multiple actions on the mouse buttons. In this paper, we propose a robust algorithm to detect the PPG peak under big motion artifact conditions. In the proposed algorithm, an adaptive method enables simultaneous detection of true peaks and eliminates fake peaks from the acquired PPG signal. Next, these detected error peaks can be corrected by a random error estimator. The combination of two sequential methods enhances the robustness of the algorithm for distinguishing irregular PPG patterns. The proposed algorithm presents an advantage for real-time applications and continuous heart rate monitoring systems using a wireless PPG sensor implemented in a PC mouse.

Jet engine modulation (JEM), a modulation phenomenon induced by a rotating jet engine compressor, is a representative feature extracted from the radar for aircraft target recognition. In this study, the authors present a robust and fast algorithm for extracting the spool rate, which imparts fundamental periodicity to JEM signals. First, a wavelet decomposition with Meyer wavelet was applied to the analytic form of the JEM signal. Then, the decomposition components were combined to achieve a sufficient energy and minimise the mean of the JEM auto-correlation. Finally, the peak detection algorithm was employed for automatic estimation of the spool rate. Application results of measured JEM signals demonstrated that the proposed algorithm is effective for stable and accurate extraction of the jet engine information.

This study introduces the Resilient Prosumer-Centric Energy Optimization Framework (RPEOF), a robust two- stage optimization model developed using Mixed Integer Second-Order Conic Programming (MISOCP) to address uncertainties in load demand and renewable generation within smart grids with integrated prosumers. RPEOF effectively accommodates diverse prosumer resources, including electric vehicles, batteries, and photovoltaic (PV) systems, ensuring optimal energy scheduling across entities that both produce and consume energy. By leveraging a two-stage robust optimization approach, RPEOF ensures resilience against fluctuations in renewable generation and load variations, delivering stable energy management solutions under uncertain conditions. The framework integrates the Column-and-Constraint Generation (C&CG) algorithm to enhance computational efficiency, making it suitable for large-scale and real-time applications. Simulation results highlight significant advancements, including an 18% reduction in grid energy losses, a 15.2% decrease in voltage fluctuations, a 12% increase in prosumer electricity sales, and a zero load-shedding rate, alongside a 60% reduction in computation time compared to conventional methods. Extensive testing on a 33-node test network and an actual urban grid demonstrates RPEOF's scalability and real-world applicability, emphasizing its potential to advance smart grid efficiency and support sustainable energy systems.

In this paper, the problem of robust distributed estimation in undirected networks is explored in depth. The Arctangent framework has garnered widespread adoption for adaptive estimation in prior research, with numerous adaptive estimation algorithms stemming from this foundation. However, the integration of the Arctangent framework with the maximum correntropy criterion, and its potential for enhanced estimation results, remains unexplored. In this paper, we have conducted a study in distributed networks and proposed a new robust distributed estimation algorithm using the Arctangent framework and the maximum correntropy criterion. Simulation experiments demonstrate that the proposed algorithm exhibits superior performance compared to the benchmark algorithm in both Gaussian and impulsive noise environments. Finally, a theoretical analysis of the proposed algorithm is conducted.

One-bit compressed sensing (1-bit CS) inherits the merits of traditional CS and further reduces the cost and burden on the hardware device via employing the 1-bit analog-to-digital converter. When the measurements do not involve sign flips caused by additive noise, most contemporary algorithms can attain excellent signal restoration. However, their recovery performance might significantly degrade if there is even a small portion of sign flips. In order to increase the estimation accuracy in noisy scenarios, we devise a new signal model for 1-bit CS to attain robustness against sign flips. Then, we give a double-sparsity optimization formulation of the restoration problem. Subsequently, we combine proximal alternating minimization and projected gradient descent to tackle the problem. Different from existing robust methodologies, our approach, referred to as robust one-bit CS (ROCS), does not require the number of sign flips. Furthermore, we analyze the convergence behavior of ROCS and show that the objective value and variable sequences converge. Numerical results using synthetic data demonstrate that ROCS is superior to the competing methods in terms of reconstruction error in noisy environments. ROCS is also applied to direction-of-arrival estimation and outperforms state-of-the-art approaches.
