Computing the maximal (robust) positive invari-ant (M(R)PI) set for linear dynamics and a polyhedral constraint set is well-known in the literature but, the effects and limitations of the different methods employed are not sufficiently clear, especially for high dimensional systems. In this paper we propose a systematic analysis of the existing techniques as well as the application of new ideas to accelerate the computation of the MPI set. This includes new stop conditions for the set recurrence that spans it. We analyze and compare these variations over a dynamical system whose dimension can be arbitrarily increased to draw conclusions about their relative strengths and weaknesses.

The rapid development of digital technology has brought about the challenge of ensuring information security. Cryptography and steganography are among the various techniques available to address this challenge. These techniques come in different forms and provide reliable means of securing information and communication. Despite the existence of numerous options, new variations are still emerging. This paper concentrates on Least Significant Bit (LSB) coding, which is one of the most widely recognized and frequently utilized steganography techniques. The advantages of LSB-based coding methods are high capacity and low complexity. However, predictability is an issue. Audio files’ sizes and data redundancy make audio data perfect for steganography, as it is possible to embed large amounts of secret information and easily transmit the signal via various communication channels. However, the use of LSB coding in audio steganography has a drawback due to the extreme sensitivity of the human auditory system (HAS). This means that any noise added to the audio with data embedded in the LSBs can be detected by the HAS, which is dependent on the number of LSBs used. This work presents an improvement of the LSB-based approach, the XORing of LSBs method, with an emphasis on enhanced security. The method achieves this by randomly picking the pairs of bits to be XOR’d while preserving the characteristics of classic LSB methods. To verify the method, it has been implemented on the Cirrus Logic DSP, proving that it may be efficiently used in a real-time audio environment without interfering with HAS sensitivity levels.

The spiking neural networks (SNN) benefits from low power consumption, very good signal-to-noise ratio and the ability to model rigorously the physiology of the biological neural areas. In robotics, the SNN can be used in different applications including motion control where the neural module drives the actuators based on the information from sensors. The most suitable type of sensing devices in biomimetic robotics are the neuromorphic sensors (NS) with spiking output which can include an optical transmitter for wireless connectivity. Considering that the reduced energy consumption is a critical characteristic for the SNN, in this work we evaluate the possibility of using photovoltaic (PV) panels to power the NS with optical output. The focus is on the recently introduced type of NS with integrated force sensing resistor (FSR) that uses a module based on a light emitting diode (LED) to generate optical pulses. We measured the responses of this NS with the load mass when it is powered by a PV panel, and the results show that the NS operates in nominal conditions despite the slight variations of the used supply voltage. Moreover, the NS is able to transmit optical pulses which frequency depends on the load mass.

The practical cross-domain fault diagnosis methods in wind turbines based on transfer learning have been widely studied, where most of the existing transfer learning methods assume that test data and training data have the same label space. However, this assumption is not realistic in practical wind turbines because the data in the target domain wind turbine often presents new fault categories during the testing phase, which can affect the accuracy of the model. A multi-discriminator weighted adversarial network (MWAN) is proposed here to handle the above problem. The proposed method can automatically identify outliers in the source domain and unknown fault classes in the target domain by introducing a hybrid weighting balanced strategy and using an auxiliary discriminator to weigh source and target domain samples. Adversarial training is introduced to achieve shared class-level alignment in the two domains. Experiments verify that the proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art methods for wind turbine fault diagnosis applications.

Languages are used by people to describe and categorize their emotional experiences and perspectives. For many applications, it is crucial to apply techniques like machine learning in social network texts to identify emotions. Most of these technologies now in use only detect a small number of emotion categories such as anger, happiness, sadness and so on, they do not distinguish more fine-grained levels of emotions. Additionally, they frequently concentrate on modeling the relationships between various emotions, ignoring the emotional semantic relations between different languages. Therefore, in this paper, we improve the Recognition of Emotion by utilizing a Multilingual architecture that combines machine Translation and Attention mechanism, enabling one language to provide additional emotional information for another language (REMTA). The experimental results on a fine-grained emotion dataset labeled with 28 categories show a performance improvement compared with other models, demonstrating the efficacy of our architecture.

Predictive power data services are an effective way to unleash the value of power data. In response to the current lack of effective evaluation for such services, this paper proposes an evaluation system and method for assessing the quality of predictive power data services. The objective is to enhance service quality, improve service benefits, and provide better decision support and management tools for the power industry. The proposed approach is based on the cloud model principle. The golden section method is employed to generate the cloud, while the improved entropy weight method is used to calculate the weights. The effectiveness of the proposed evaluation method is validated through the evaluation of predictive power data services provided in different regions.

In order to avoid thermal runaway as well as ensure safe and stable operation of battery system, it is vital to perform rapid and accurate diagnosis for early faults with similar characteristics. In this paper, a short circuit and connection fault diagnosis method that is applicable to traditional one-to-one voltage sensor topology is proposed based on differential voltage changes (DVCs) and independent component analysis. Voltage measurements is pretreated to obtain DVCs for extracting fault signature and reducing the detrimental effects of inconsistency, interference, etc. to a certain extent. Independent component analysis is combined with the DVC vector to establish diagnostic model and diagnose faults online. Fault detection and isolation is achieved using squared prediction error, and considering that traditional contributions cannot accurately determine fault location, an improved contribution calculation is introduced to localize the faulty cell. Experimental verifications show that the proposed method can timely detect and localize faults, meanwhile it can distinguish short circuit with connection fault.

DC collection systems offer advantages by reducing the weight and size of DC cables without requiring reactive power compensation. This enables the replacement of the bulky 50/60 Hz transformers typically used in AC collection systems on offshore platforms with smaller medium-frequency transformers in DC collection configurations. Nonetheless, challenges persist in implementing high-power DC-DC converters with high-voltage transformation ratios and DC protection methods in DC collection systems. It is worth noting that while HVDC (High Voltage DC) transmission can transfer offshore wind power from collection systems to onshore grids, DC collection systems do not always result in fewer power conversion stages compared to AC collection systems. To tackle these challenges, this paper conducts a comparative analysis of the technological, economic, and environmental aspects of DC and AC collection systems for offshore wind farms, using a wind farm in China as an illustrative example. Our approach involves an innovative method for estimating losses and a technical comparison. Simulation results validate that DC collection systems exhibit higher total losses than AC collection systems. We also explore the impact of collection bus voltages on these losses in DC systems. Additionally, we develop an economic cost assessment method, and the sensitivity analysis results confirm that cost reductions primarily stem from the reduced size of DC cables and offshore platforms rather than improvements in DC protective devices and DC-DC converters. Lastly, we investigate the environmental implications of these systems.
