Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) based attitude determination has become an essential alternative to conventional techniques. carrier-phase integer ambiguity resolution is the primary challenge for high-precision GNSS attitude determination. In this contribution, we develop a constrained wrapped least squares (C-WLS) method to estimate a vehicle's attitude innovatively. The proposed method avoids the complicated process of resolving integer ambiguities by directly employing ambiguous carrier-phase observations to determine a vehicle's attitude through a search procedure in the solution space. The proposed method also takes advantage of a novel optimization model, which leverages prior information such as antenna configuration, the integer property of the carrier-phase ambiguity, and the noise distribution of carrier-phase observations. The performance of the proposed method is verified using both simulation and experimental data. The results show that the proposed C-WLS method outperforms the renowned constrained LAMBDA method in various performance areas.

Accurate particulate matter (PM) prediction is crucial for mitigating air pollution. Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) effectively model spatiotemporal dependencies, but predefined graphs limit adaptability, and some datasets complicate learning. This study introduces a graph construction method based on a confusion matrix from a supervised learning process to dynamically capture inter-class relationships. Additionally, a hybrid loss function that combines energy distance and Huber loss is applied to address the vanishing gradient problem and improve learning stability. The approach is evaluated using air pollution data from the university of Utah AirU Pollution Monitoring Network in Salt Lake City, UT, with five GNN models: Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs), Simple Graph Convolutional Networks (SGConv), Graph Isomorphism Networks (GINs), Graph Attention Networks (GATs), and GraphSage. The experimental results of single- and multistep predictions confirm that GraphSage achieves the highest accuracy in predicting the concentrations of PM 1 , PM 10 , and PM 2.5 over different time horizons. Furthermore, GNNExplainer (Graph Neural Network Explainer) and PGExplainer (Probabilistic Graph Explainer) are applied to interpret feature importance and graph structure, ensuring model transparency. Results show improved prediction accuracy, with GNN models outperforming traditional machine learning and deep learning models (i.e., Prophet, Long short-term memory, Gated recurrent units in air pollution forecasting.

Real-time kinematic (RTK) is the most popular GNSS-based precise positioning technique that is widely used in many navigation and control systems. RTK is a relative positioning method, which takes advantage of pseudo-range and carrier-phase observations received at a mobile GNSS receiver (rover) and a fixed base station. After fixing the integer ambiguities, the carrier-phase observables can be utilized for precise positioning such that RTK can estimate the rover's position with centimeter-level accuracy. In order to produce instantaneous location information, correction data needs to be effectively transferred from the base station to the rover via a communication link. Various ways of correction information transmission have been proposed over the years. In this work, we utilize the Networked Transport of RTCM via Internet Protocol (NTRIP) for data transmission. We establish the connection between the base station and the rover through a virtual private network (VPN), which allows the rover to communicate with the base station using a local IP address, regardless of the nature of the Internet connection on both sides. To study the impact of the quality of the Internet connection, especially with respect to latency, we evaluate the performance of RTK positioning under different Internet connection conditions. We carry out experiments using commercial GNSS RTK products.

The operation of a photoconductive terahertz (THz) device relies on optoelectronic interactions and THz radiation. Although these two processes are coupled, in simulations, they are often modeled separately due to the large difference between the frequencies of optical and THz electromagnetic waves. To model both processes in a single simulation, we propose a dual-mesh discontinuous Galerkin (DG) scheme. Optoelectronic interactions and THz radiation are accounted for by solving, respectively, a coupled system of Maxwell and drift-diffusion equations discretized on a fine mesh and only the Maxwell equations discretized on a coarse mesh. This approach uses an efficient high-order interpolation scheme to “connect” electric field and current discretized on these two meshes. The proposed scheme is validated against experimental results.
This position paper summarizes a recently developed research program focused on inference in the context of data centric science and engineering applications, and forecasts its trajectory forward over the next decade....

The perfectly matched layer (PML) is one of the most popular domain truncation techniques used by wave equation solvers. PML implementations often use smooth-varying attenuation coefficients to achieve desired levels of accuracy and efficiency by reducing numerical reflection and PML thickness, respectively. For a discontinuous Galerkin time-domain (DGTD) scheme, this approach requires storing a different mass matrix for every mesh element, and therefore significantly increases the memory footprint. In this work, an efficient implementation of PML, which makes use of weight-adjusted approximation to account for smooth-varying attenuation coefficients, is developed. The proposed scheme results in a DGTD scheme with a small memory footprint while maintaining the high-order accuracy of the solution using a thin PML.
