Metasurfaces are expected to revolutionize wireless communications due to their ability to enhance different characteristics of electromagnetic wave propagation channels. The response of a metasurface to an electromagnetic excitation is determined by the geometry, the material composition, and the spatial arrangement of its sub-wavelength unit cells. This response can be considered as a spatiotemporal discontinuity in the field and can be mathematically described using the so-called generalized sheet transition conditions (GSTCs) (K. Achouri and C. Caloz, Electromagnetic Metasurfaces: Theory and Applications, Wiley, 2021). The GSTCs connect the electromagnetic fields on two sides of the metasurface using the electric and magnetic bianisotropic susceptibility tensors which effectively represent the metasurface.

This paper details a process used to create an interconnect in a conducting systems, such as amorphous or polycrystalline semiconductors. An experimental verification on the plasticity that supports the percolation conduction mechanism is provided. The plasticity observed in the sample could be harnessed in the development of new electronic devices that require flexibility and adaptability, such as wearable electronics and bendable screens. Overall, TEM characterization, in combination with SAED analysis, revealed a highly oriented crystalline structure in the sample. In addition, the results of this study have implications for the design of new memory devices that are based on a percolation conduction mechanism, which could potentially lead to the development of more efficient and reliable non-volatile storage technologies.

Data communications within the smart power grid components are susceptible to cyberattacks due to the inter-connected nature of the grid and reliance on communication networks. Such cyberattacks can exploit the integrity of the exchanged data and result in operational instability. Existing data-driven cyberattack detection systems (CDSs) are proposed in the literature but their effectiveness is only verified against one type of cyberattacks. In reality, a smart grid system could encounter more than one attack type at once. Thus, in this paper, we investigate the resilience of state-of-the-art data-driven CDSs against replay false data injection, adversarial evasion, and adversarial data poisoning attacks on a realistic IEEE 118-bus system model. It turns out that a convolutional recurrent graph autoencoder-based CDS offers an attack detection rate of 96 – 97.5%, which outperforms other machine learning and deep learning-based data-driven CDSs by 16 – 54% since it captures the recurrent and spatial aspects of the data without being trained on attack data.

Human-in-the-loop cyber-physical Systems use data from various sources to provide valuable assistance to users, but privacy concerns arise when sensitive information is shared. Federated Learning is a promising solution that enables the processing of user data without sharing sensitive information. While this method holds great potential, its efficacy in detecting sleep problems remains an open question. In this way, using a real-world dataset application, our study meticulously evaluates and comprehends the impact of incorporating Federated Learning on sleep detection. Our study evaluates the impact of incorporating Federated Learning on sleep detection and compares it with traditional Machine Learning models. Our findings reveal that our approach delivers accurate sleep detection results over 84% on par with conventional techniques. Our results emphasize the critical importance of handling human error inputs, as this factor significantly influences the accuracy of results in both methods.

Sleep is the natural state of relaxation for human being. Sleep quality is an essential yet frequently neglected aspect of sleep in general. Sleep quality is essential because it allows the body to restore itself and prepare for the next day. The standard method for evaluating sleep quality was subjective evaluation. Actigraphy devices, which can measure the sleep cycle, are now widely available. This study developed a method using Fuzzy Logic and an actigraphy device to measure and classify sleep quality. The fuzzy logic method was developed in several stages, which are determining the sleep quality measurement parameters, constructing the fuzzy set for each input variable, and developing the fuzzy rules. To evaluate the proposed fuzzy model, five individuals were invited to participate in the experiment and required to complete the PSQI subjective sleep questionnaire. The evaluation result shows that our proposed Fuzzy model achieves lower error compared to the existing method.

This paper presents a proposal of a computer vision tool based on Open CV that allows the pre-visual identification of non-uniform constellation levels, channel coding, and Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) estimation on ATSC. Nowadays, the challenge of digital television systems is to transmit high quality videos employing the new technologies, such as Ultra High Definition (UHD). Thus, the new standards as ATSC 3.0 have incorporated several modifications on their physical layers. Among them, it is possible to highlight the use of non-uniform constellations, advanced channel error coding and layer division multiplexing (LDM). However, the pre-visual understanding of the received constellations has become hard since the complex symbols are not distributed evenly in the complex plane and there are different layers to be seen simultaneously. So, the techniques of computer vision have a great potential to analyze and to extract an initial information from the images related to the received constellation, to identify the modulation level, channel coding rate and SNR to each layer, without the necessity of complete demodulation.

We present light extraction efficiency (LEE) improvement for InGaN red micro-light emitting diodes (micro-LEDs) of various sizes operating at low current densities. We compared the characteristics of micro-LEDs with indium tin oxide (ITO) transparent p-electrodes with conventional opaque metal p-electrodes. 50 µm × 50 µm micro-LEDs with ITO p-electrodes achieved a peak on-wafer external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 2.54% with an emission wavelength of 640 nm at a current density as low as 0.4 A/cm 2 . This represents a 1.18-fold improvement in peak EQE compared to devices with metal p-electrodes. Light ray tracing simulation confirmed that the ITO p-electrodes exhibit 1.18 times higher light escape than metal-based micro-LEDs, validating the role of enhanced light extraction. These findings provide valuable insights for advancing high-definition display and VR applications.

Although supervised image denoising networks have shown remarkable performance on synthesized noisy images, they often fail in practice due to the difference between real and synthesized noise. Since clean-noisy image pairs from the real world are extremely costly to gather, self-supervised learning, which utilizes noisy input itself as a target, has been studied. To prevent a self-supervised denoising model from learning identical mapping, each output pixel should not be influenced by its corresponding input pixel; This requirement is known as J-invariance. Blind-spot networks (BSNs) have been a prevalent choice to ensure J-invariance in self-supervised image denoising. However, constructing variations of BSNs by injecting additional operations such as downsampling can expose blinded information, thereby violating J-invariance. Consequently, convolutions designed specifically for BSNs have been allowed only, limiting architectural flexibility. To overcome this limitation, we propose PUCA, a novel J-invariant U-Net architecture, for self-supervised denoising. PUCA leverages patch-unshuffle/shuffle to dramatically expand receptive fields while maintaining J-invariance and dilated attention blocks (DABs) for global context incorporation. Experimental results demonstrate that PUCA achieves state-of-the-art performance, outperforming existing methods in self-supervised image denoising.
