Smart meters (SMs) are deployed in smart power grids to monitor customer power consumption and facilitate energy management. However, fraudulent customers can compromise these SMs to manipulate power readings and engage in electricity theft cyber-attacks, resulting in reduced electricity bills. While various machine learning approaches have been employed for detecting such attacks, the potential of reinforcement learning (RL) remains unexplored. To bridge this gap, we propose a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) approach that leverages RL's adapt-ability to dynamic cyber-attacks and consumption patterns. This approach integrates exploration and exploitation mechanisms, enabling optimal decision-making. In this study, we present our approach in two scenarios. Firstly, we develop comprehensive detection models using deep Q networks (DQN) and double deep Q networks (DDQN) with various deep neural network architectures. Secondly, we address the challenges of defending against newly launched cyber-attacks. Extensive experimentation provides strong evidence of the effectiveness of our DRL approach in improving the detection of electricity theft cyber-attacks, as well as its capacity to efficiently adapt and defend against newly launched cyber-attacks.

The number of shared micro-mobility services such as electric scooters (e-scooters) has an increasing trend due to the advantages of high efficiency and low cost in short-range travel in urban areas. However, due to the unique characteristics of moving behavior, it is commonly seen that e-scooters may share the road with other motor vehicles. The lack of protection may lead to severe injury for e-scooter riders. The scenario where an e-scooter crosses an intersection or makes a lane change while interacting with an approaching vehicle was commonly seen in real-life traffic data. Such scenarios are hazardous because the intention and behavior of the e-scooter may vary significantly based on the traffic environment conditions. Furthermore, some other vehicles may occlude the presence of the moving e-scooter, which can result in an unexpected collision. In this paper, we propose a simulation platform to mimic the interactions between vehicles and e-scooters. Several traffic scenarios are studied via qualitative and quantitative analysis. The proposed framework is shown to be valuable and efficient for the general risk analysis for vehicle and e-scooter interactions (VEI).

Despite the giant leap made in object 6D pose estimation and robotic grasping under structured scenarios, most approaches depend heavily on the exact CAD models of target objects beforehand, thereby limiting their wide applications. To address this, we propose a novel knowledge-guided network - KGNet to estimate the pose and size of category-level unseen objects. This network includes three primary innovations: knowledge-guided categorical model generation, pointwise deformation probability matrix and synergetic RGBD feature fusion, with the former two leveraging categorical object knowledge for unseen object reconstruction and the latter one facilitating pose-sensitive feature extraction. Exten-sive experiments on CAMERA25 and REAL275 verify their effectiveness, and KGNet achieves the SOTA performance on these two acknowledged benchmarks. Additionally, a real-world robotic grasping experiment is conducted, and its results further qualitatively prove the practicability and robustness of KGNet.

We introduce a deep learning (DL) based network for imaging from intensity-only measurements using low dimensional encoded representations. Phaseless imaging constitutes a non-convex and ill-posed problem that is relevant to a wide range of applications, where accurate measurement of phase information is challenging. State-of-the-art methods solve the original non-convex optimization problem using sophisticated initialization schemes that lead to locally benign loss function topographies. However, these are commonly contingent upon high sample complexity and restrictive conditions on the forward maps, which limit their practical applicability. To circumvent fundamental limitations, we utilize a model-based deep network for phaseless imaging that implements a fixed-step size realization of gradient descent directly on the lower dimensional encoded representation domain. Accordingly, the iterative algorithm is combined with a non-linear encoder-decoder pair that govern the mapping between low dimensional representations and the image manifold of our interest. This results in feasible regimes beyond those dictated by the standard sufficient conditions of the exact recovery theory used in non-convex optimization. We empirically demonstrate the effectiveness of our lower dimensional formulation of signal recovery through numerical simulations on a number of practical deterministic imaging geometries at reduced sample complexities.

This article presents a 3D point cloud map-merging framework for egocentric heterogeneous multi-robot exploration, based on overlap detection and alignment, that is independent of a manual initial guess or prior knowledge of the robots' poses. The novel proposed solution utilizes state-of-the-art place recognition learned descriptors, that through the framework's main pipeline, offer a fast and robust region overlap estimation, hence eliminating the need for the time-consuming global feature extraction and feature matching process that is typically used in 3D map integration. The region overlap estimation provides a homogeneous rigid transform that is applied as an initial condition in the point cloud registration algorithm Fast-GICP, which provides the final and refined alignment. The efficacy of the proposed framework is experimentally evaluated based on multiple field multi-robot exploration missions in underground environments, where both ground and aerial robots are deployed, with different sensor configurations.

The paper proposes a novel hybrid discovery Radiomics framework that simultaneously integrates temporal and spatial features extracted from non-thin chest Computed Tomography (CT) slices to predict Lung Adenocarcinoma (LUAC) malignancy with minimum expert involvement. Lung cancer is the leading cause of mortality from cancer worldwide and has various histologic types, among which LUAC has recently been the most prevalent. LUACs are classified as pre-invasive, minimally invasive, and invasive adenocarcinomas. Timely and accurate knowledge of the lung nodules malignancy leads to a proper treatment plan and reduces the risk of unnecessary or late surgeries. Currently, chest CT scan is the primary imaging modality to assess and predict the invasiveness of LUACs. However, the radiologists’ analysis based on CT images is subjective and suffers from a low accuracy compared to the ground truth pathological reviews provided after surgical resections. The proposed hybrid framework, referred to as the CAET-SWin, consists of two parallel paths: (i) The Convolutional Auto-Encoder (CAE) Transformer path that extracts and captures informative features related to inter-slice relations via a modified Transformer architecture, and; (ii) The Shifted Window (SWin) Transformer path, which is a hierarchical vision transformer that extracts nodules’ related spatial features from a volumetric CT scan. Extracted temporal (from the CAET path) and spatial (from the SWin path) are then fused through a fusion path to classify LUACs. Experimental results on our in-house dataset of 114 pathologically proven SubSolid Nodules (SSNs) demonstrate that the CAET-SWin significantly improves reliability of the invasiveness prediction task while achieving an accuracy of 82.65%, sensitivity of 83.66%, and specificity of 81.66% using 10-fold cross-validation.
