Photovoltaic (PV) power is generated by two common types of solar components that are primarily affected by fluctuations and development in cloud structures as a result of uncertain and chaotic processes. Local PV forecasting is unavoidable in supply and load planning necessary in integration of smart systems into electrical grids. Intra- or day-ahead modelling of weather patterns based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) allows one to refine available 24 h. cloudiness forecast or predict PV production at a particular plant location during the day. AI usually gets an adequate prediction quality in shorter-level horizons, using the historical meteo- and PV record series as compared to Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) systems. NWP models are produced every 6 h to simulate grid motion of local cloudiness, which is additionally delayed and usually scaled in a rough less operational applicability. Differential Neural Network (DNN) is based on a newly developed neurocomputing strategy that allows the representation of complex weather patterns analogous to NWP. DNN parses the n-variable linear Partial Differential Equation (PDE), which describes the ground-level patterns, into sub-PDE modules of a determined order at each node. Their derivatives are substituted by the Laplace transforms and solved using adapted inverse operations of Operation Calculus (OC). DNN fuses OC mathematics with neural computing in evolution 2-input node structures to form sum modules of selected PDEs added step-by-step to the expanded composite model. The AI multi- 1…9-h and one-stage 24-h models were evolved using spatio-temporal data in the preidentified daily learning sequences according to the applied input–output data delay to predict the Clear Sky Index (CSI). The prediction results of both statistical schemes were evaluated to assess the performance of the AI models. Intraday models obtain slightly better prediction accuracy in average errors compared to those applied in the second-day-ahead

This study focuses on creating an accurate reflection prediction model that will guide the design of filters with multilayer Anti-Reflection Coating (ARC) to optimize the thickness parameters using Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) techniques. This model aims to shed light on the design process of a multilayer optical filter, making it more cost-effective by providing faster and more precise production. In creating this model, a dataset containing data obtained from 3000 (1500 Ge–Al2O3, 1500 Ge–SiO2) simulations previously performed on a computer based on the thicknesses of multilayer structural materials was used. The data are generated using Computational Electromagnetic simulation software based on the Finite-Difference Time-Domain method. To understand the mechanism of the proposed model, two different two-layer coating simulations were studied. While Ge was used as the substrate in both coatings, Al2O3 and SiO2 were used as the second layers. The data set consists of the 3–5 µm and 8–12 µm bands typical for the mid-wave infrared (MWIR) and long-wave infrared (LWIR) bands and includes reflectance values for wavelengths ranging between these spectra. In the specified 2-layer data set, the average reflectance was obtained with a minimum of 0.36 at 515 nm Ge and 910 nm SiO2 thicknesses. This value can be increased by adapting the proposed model to more than 2 layers. Six ML algorithms and a DL model, including artificial neural networks and convolutional neural networks, are evaluated to determine the most effective approach for predicting reflectance properties. Furthermore, in the proposed model, a hyperparameter tuning phase is used in the study to compare the efficiency of ML and DL methods to generate dual-band ARC and maximize the prediction accuracy of the DL algorithm. To our knowledge, this is the first time this has been implemented in this field. The results show that ML models, particularly decision tree (MSE: 0.00000069, RMSE: 0.00083), rand

DolphinAttacks (i.e., inaudible voice commands) modulate audible voices over ultrasounds to inject malicious commands silently into voice assistants and manipulate controlled systems (e.g., doors or smart speakers). Eliminating DolphinAttacks is challenging if ever possible since it requires to modify the microphone hardware. In this paper, we design EarArray, a lightweight method that can not only detect such attacks but also identify the direction of attackers without requiring any extra hardware or hardware modification. Essentially, inaudible voice commands are modulated on ultrasounds that inherently attenuate faster than the one of audible sounds. By inspecting the command sound signals via the built-in multiple microphones on smart devices, EarArray is able to estimate the attenuation rate and thus detect the attacks. We propose a model of the propagation of audible sounds and ultrasounds from the sound source to a voice assistant, e.g., a smart speaker, and illustrate the underlying principle and its feasibility. We implemented EarArray using two specially-designed microphone arrays and our experiments show that EarArray can detect inaudible voice commands with an accuracy of above 99% and recognize the direction of the attackers with an accuracy of 97.89% and can also detect the laser-based attack with an accuracy of 100%.
