By turning sun radiation into thermal energy, solar drying is a sustainable method of removing moisture from materials. For many uses, it is an affordable and environmentally responsible choice. An experimental study was conducted to improve the efficiency of an indirect solar drier for drying dates. The Iraqi climate was used to test four distinct iterations of air-cooled solar collectors that were attached to the solar dryer. The first model is a conventional solar collector; the second is a horizontal cylindrical finned collector; and the third is a horizontal cylindrical finned collector that incorporates copper nanomaterial and phase change material (PCM). The fourth type is a horizontal cylindrical finned solar collector that has moisture traps at the collector intake and a PCM combined with copper nanomaterial (type 4). The experimental findings demonstrated a direct correlation between the solar collector's performance and the ambient air temperature, which in turn influences the drying process and the pace at which water evaporates from dates. Comparing model 2 to model 1, the solar air heater's overall efficiency was roughly 24 %. Compared to model 1, the efficiency of models 3 and 4 rose by 38 % and 54 %, respectively. In comparison to model 1, the exergy of models 2, 3, and 4 dropped by 9.5 %, 19.1 %, and 29 %, respectively. In comparison to model 1, the entropy generations for models 2, 3, and 4 were decreased by 10.99 %, 21.2 %, and 39.1 %, respectively. Additionally, compared to model 1, the irreversibility decreased by 9.05 %, 49.97 %, and 69.59 %, respectively. Models 1, 2, 3, and 4 had humidity levels of 29.5 %, 24.5 %, 19 %, and 13.5 % at 18:00, respectively. The suitability of solar dryer No. 4 for drying dates in Iraqi weather conditions has been effectively demonstrated by the practical testing.

Image registration technology has been gradually applied in military and civil fields, such as unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) target recognition, remote sensing image registration, 3D object reconstruction and so on. The registration accuracy of traditional registration algorithms, such as sift and surf, are not high and even mismatch, when the image content changes or affine transformation occurs. In order to solve this problem, an image registration method (IR-GAN method) based on Generative adversarial networks (GAN) was proposed, in view of the content change and affine transformation of images for training. At the same time, the sample images are expanded by translation, rotation, reflection, scaling, shearing, brightness transformation to improve the precision and accuracy of the registration algorithm. Simulation results show that our method is correct in principle and can improve the registration accuracy of both images with content changing and affine transform images.

The selections for the model orders and the number of controller parameters have not been discussed for many data-driven iterative learning control (ILC) methods. If they are not chosen carefully, the estimated model and designed controller will lead to either large variance or large bias. In this paper we try to use the kernel-based regularization method (KRM) to handle the model estimation problem and the controller design problem for unknown repetitive linear time-varying systems. In particular, we have used the diagonal correlated kernel and the marginal likelihood maximization method for the two problems. Numerical simulation results show that smaller mean square errors for each time instant are obtained by using the proposed ILC method in comparison with an existing data-driven ILC approach.
