The wireless power transfer (WPT) technology has gained significant attention in recent years due to its potential to provide a convenient and efficient method to charging electronic devices without the need for physical connections. In wireless charging, the inductive coils are significantly important as they are the component that power transfer takes place. In this context, Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization (MOPSO) has emerged as a promising technique for designing WPT coils with improved performance. Aiming to verify the performance of the designed coil, LCC-S compensation topology was utilized as it can provide practical battery charging specifications.

The use of unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) in oceanography research is widespread due to their ability to provide real-time data. Due to the limited battery size, recharging operations including plugging and unplugging decrease the overall utilization of the USV. To address this issue, wireless power transfer (WPT) can be implemented by installing coils at the dock and inside the USV. In this paper, a three-coil WPT system is designed for offshore USV wireless charging applications. The proposed three-coil structure is designed to ensure adequate coupling and achieve high transfer efficiency. Aiming to meet practical battery charging specifications, LCC-S-S compensation topology is analyzed with detailed parameter design to provide constant current output. Finally, simulations are conducted to verify the coupling and output characteristics of the system.

Accurate keypoint detection in medical images of the spine is critical for the assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, and clinical investigation of spinal deformities. However, due to severe occlusions of spinal structures in lateral X-ray images, accurate keypoint detection can be hardly achieved in lateral X-ray images based on single-view information. Thus, methods based on both the anterior-posterior (AP) and lateral (LAT) X-ray image views have been proposed to alleviate occlusion problems and achieve better keypoint detection performance. Although some progress has been made with these dual-view methods, they do not effectively exploit a priori knowledge of the spine and hence cannot adequately account for the structural correlation of the vertebrae across views. In this paper, a new dual-view fusion network (DVFNet) framework is proposed for keypoint detection in spinal X-ray images. This framework obtains structural correlations between AP and LAT views of the spine based on a priori spine knowledge represented by high-level semantic features. Meanwhile, the proposed framework combines local and global features extracted respectively by a local subnetwork and a global subnetwork. On the one hand, the local subnetwork is constructed as an enhanced codec structure based on both the AP and LAT views. This subnetwork is trained to output local features that contain both joint semantic features of the two views and independent fine-grained features of each individual view. This scheme leads to accurate keypoint estimation locally. On the other hand, the global subnetwork utilizes a self-attention mechanism to extract view-specific global features based on either the AP view or the LAT view in order to eliminate ambiguity, and reduce confusion on keypoint locations. Further, we propose a weighted feature fusion (WFF) module for adaptive fusion of the local and global features. We evaluated the DVFNet model on a private dataset and found that our proposed metho

Mathematical model of the inductive power transfer (IPT) systems is essential for stability analysis and control design. Conventional modeling approaches for IPT systems result in high-order models, as each resonant voltage or current is represented by two slowly changing real-valued variables. Alternative modeling methods may decrease the model order, but they are often plagued by drawbacks such as the absence of analytical expressions, reduced generality, and incomplete modeling. Moreover, the harmonic AC components of the IPT system are not well modeled in the existing methods, which affects the analysis accuracy and control optimality. In this paper, a harmonic transfer function (HTF) modeling of the IPT system is proposed, which has good mathematical properties and improved accuracy. First, the circuit configuration and the linear time-varying (LTV) large-signal model are proposed. Then, the derivation of the proposed HTF is comprehensively discussed. Finally, the accuracy of the proposed HTF is verified by simulation and experimental results in comparison with other representative modeling methods, which shows an improved accuracy.

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) have the potential to revolutionize transportation, but their effective integration into the real world requires addressing the challenge of interacting with human drivers. Real-world driving involves negotiating and cooperating with fellow drivers through social cues, necessitating AVs to also demonstrate such social compatibilities. However, despite the popularity, current learning-based control methods for AV policy synthesis often overlook this crucial aspect. In this work, we look at the problem of enabling socially compatible driving when AV control policies are learned. We leverage human driving data to learn a social preference model of human driving and then integrate it with reinforcement learning-based AV policy synthesis using Social Value Orientation theory. In particular, we propose to use multi-task reinforcement learning to learn diverse social compatibility levels in driving (ex: altruistic, prosocial, individualistic, and competitive), focusing on the requirement of having diverse behaviors in real-world driving. Using highway driving scenarios, we demonstrate through experiments that socially compatible AV driving not only enables naturalistic driving behaviors but also reduces collision rates from the baseline. Our findings reveal that without social compatibility, AV policies tend to adopt dangerously competitive driving behaviors, while the incorporation of social compatibility fosters smoother vehicle maneuvers.

The synthesis of quantum circuits for multiplicative inverse over $\operatorname{GF}(2^{8})$ are discussed in this paper. We first convert the multiplicative inverse operation in $\operatorname{GF}(2^{8})$ to arithmetic operations in the composite field $\operatorname{GF}((2^{4})^{2})$ , and then discuss the expressions of the square calculation, the inversion calculation and the multiplication calculation separately in the finite field $\operatorname{GF}(2^{4})$ , where the expressions of multiplication calculation in $\operatorname{GF}(2^{4})$ are given directly in $\operatorname{GF}(2^{4})$ and given through being transformed into the composite field $\operatorname{GF}((2^{2})^{2})$ . Then the quantum circuits of these calculations are realized one by one. Finally, two quantum circuits for multiplicative inverse over $\operatorname{GF}(2^{8})$ are synthesized. They both use 21 qubits, the first quantum circuit uses 55 Toffoli gates and 107 CNOT gates and the second one uses 37 Toffoli gates and 209 CNOT gates. As an example of the application of multiplication inverse, we apply these quantum circuits to the implementations of the S-box quantum circuit of the AES cryptographic algorithm. Two quantum circuits for implementing the S-box of the AES cryptographic algorithm are presented. The first quantum circuit uses 21 qubits, 55 Toffoli gates, 131 CNOT gates and 4 NOT gates and the second one uses 21 qubits, 37 Toffoli gates, 233 CNOT gates and 4 NOT gates. Through the evaluation of quantum cost, the two quantum circuits of the S-box of AES cryptographic algorithm use less quantum resources than the existing schemes.
