One of the challenges of adiabatic control theory is the proper inclusion of the effects of dissipation. Here we study the adiabatic dynamics of an open two-level quantum system deriving a generalized master equation to consistently account for the combined action of the driving and dissipation. We demonstrate that in the zero-temperature limit the ground state dynamics is not affected by environment. As an example, we apply our theory to Cooper pair pumping, which demonstrates the robustness of ground state adiabatic evolution.

One of the essences of fuzzy logic is how fuzzy variables and fuzzy expressions may be transformed into precise quantities and rigorous models in fuzzy inferences. This paper presents a denotational mathematical structure and methodology for modeling fuzzy qualifications and quantifications in cognitive informatics, soft computing, and computational intelligence. Fuzzy qualifications and quantifications for both absolute and relative measures are formally elaborated on discrete and continuous fuzzy object and expressions. In addition, the qualification for characteristic attributes of fuzzy objects is modeled. Applications of fuzzy qualifications and quantifications are illustrated using a rich set of examples and real-world cases, which enable machines to mimic complex human reasoning mechanisms in cognitive informatics, soft computing, and computational intelligence.

A fuzzy inference is an extended form of formal inferences that enables symbolic and rigorous evaluation of the degree of a confidential level for a given causality on the basis of fuzzy expressions constructed with fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic operations. Fuzzy inferences are powerful denotational mathematical means for rigorously dealing with degrees of matters, uncertainties, and vague semantics of linguistic variables, as well as for precisely reasoning the semantics of fuzzy causalities. This paper presents a denotational mathematical framework of a set of mathematical structures of fuzzy inferences encompassing deductive, inductive, abductive, and analogical inferences. Each of the fuzzy inference processes is formally modeled and illustrated with real-world examples and cases of applications. The formalization of fuzzy inferences and methodologies enables machines to mimic complex human reasoning mechanisms in cognitive informatics, soft computing, and computational intelligence.

Random pulse width modulation (RPWM) technique has been employed to generate the control signals of Vienna-type rectifier. This technique is compared to two conventional techniques (Hysteresis-band and ramp comparison with fix frequency carrier signal). Simulation results are illustrated for three approaches. The results verify significantly reduction of high frequency harmonics magnitude;and consequently overcome electromagnetic interference (EMI) problem in this active type of rectifier.

Granular computing provides a new perspective on computing architectures and behaviors. This paper presents a recent development in denotational mathematics known as granular algebra, which enables a rigorous treatment of computing granules as a generic abstract mathematical structure and granular behaviors as a set of algebraic operations. An abstract granule is modeled as a mathematical entity that elicits a set of basic properties of computing granules. Then, a set of algebraic operations on abstract granules is defined such as the relational, reproductive, and compositional operations. A real-world case study is presented that demonstrates how concrete granules and their algebraic operations are derived based on granular algebra. This work shows that granular algebra is not only a powerful conceptual modeling methodology for granular systems, but also a functional specification methodology for granular computing.

One of the important requirements for operational planning of electrical utilities is the prediction of hourly load up to several days, known as short term load forecasting (STLF). Considering the effect of its accuracy on system security and also economical aspects, there is an on-going attention toward putting new approaches to the task. Recently, neuro fuzzy modeling has played a successful role in various applications over nonlinear time series prediction. This paper presents a neuro-fuzzy model for the application of short-term load forecasting. This model is identified through locally liner model tree (LoLiMoT) learning algorithm. The model is compared to a multilayer perceptron and Kohonen classification and intervention analysis. The models are trained and assessed on load data extracted from EUNITE network competition.

The WirelessHART standard uses TDMA and channel hopping to control access to the network and to coordinate communication between network devices, in order to enhance reliability and to improve the throughput of the network. A problem in utilizing multiple channels is that current devices are usually equipped with a single transceiver. Thus, a node can only transmit or receive on one channel at a time. Moreover, contrary to today's wired control systems, if a single access point is used the communication becomes the bottle neck of the control system. Therefore this paper presents how one may schedule the WirelessHART communication using two access points. Furthermore the paper describes a scheduling algorithm managing a multihop multi-channel networked control system based on the WirelessHART standard. A simulation example of a multihop multi-channel network is also shown, using the fixed packet lost utility of the Matlab/Simulink-based tool TrueTime.
