Visual-inertial SLAM (VINS) stands at the forefront of advancements in computer vision, robotics, and autonomous driving, revolutionizing the way we perceive and navigate the world. The typical approach in optimization-based methods for VINS is to estimate camera poses by minimizing the reprojection errors of all corresponding map points. However, not all map points are suitable for accurate pose estimation. Some map points introduce noise and can compromise the accuracy of the estimation. Current methods primarily focus on removing 2D noise points, which proves to be ineffective since triangulation can increase the uncertainty of map points. To address this problem, we propose a new method for Informative Map Point Selection (IMPS) in VINS systems. IMPS identifies the most informative map points by utilizing mutual and geometric information as the optimization target. We integrate IMPS into a VINS system and evaluate its performance using publicly available EuRoC, TUM and M2DGR datasets, as well as our own data. Experimental results demonstrate that our method surpasses existing VINS methods and achieves state-of-the-art pose estimation performance. Importantly, IMPS functions as an independent module with strong generalization capabilities, allowing for easy integration into other VINS systems and enhancing pose estimation performance. This integration not only elevates pose estimation accuracy but also holds great promise for advancing applications in intelligent driving and unmanned systems.

In this paper, we designed a deep learning (DL) based method for synthetic aperture imaging in the presence of phase errors. Random variations in the transmission medium resulting from unforeseen environmental changes, fluctuations in sensor locations, and multiple scattering effects in the background medium often amount to uncertainties in the assumed data models. Imaging algorithms that rely on back-projected estimates are susceptible to estimation errors under these circumstances. Moreover, under dynamic nature of the medium, collecting high volume of measurements under the same operating conditions may become challenging. Towards this end, our imaging network incorporates DL in three major steps: first, we implement a deep network (DN) for pre-processing the erroneous measurements; second, we implement a DL-based decoding prior by recovering an encoded version of the reflectivity vector associated with the scattering media to reduce sample complexity, which is then mapped to an image estimate by a decoding DN; finally, we consider a fixed step implementation of an iterative algorithm in the form of a recurrent neural network (RNN) by using the unrolling technique that leads to a model-based imaging operator. The parameters of all three DNs are learned simultaneously in a supervised manner. We verified the feasibility of our approach using simulated high fidelity synthetic aperture measurements.

Ensuring the frequency stability of electric grids with increasing renewable resources is a key problem in power system operations. In recent years, a number of advanced controllers have been designed to optimize frequency control. These controllers, however, almost always assume that the net load in the system remains constant over a sufficiently long time. Given the intermittent and uncertain nature of renewable resources, it is becoming important to explicitly consider net load that is time-varying. This paper proposes an adaptive approach to frequency control in power systems with significant time-varying net load. We leverage the advances in short-term load forecasting, where the net load in the system can be accurately predicted using weather and other features. We integrate these predictions into the design of adaptive controllers, which can be seamlessly combined with most existing controllers including conventional droop control and emerging neural network-based controllers. We prove that the overall control architecture achieves frequency restoration decentralizedly. Case studies verify that the proposed method improves both transient and frequency-restoration performances compared to existing approaches.

The optimal circadian rhythm entrainment problem has been studied based on mathematical models, e.g. the Kronauer model. In this paper, we study the robustness of light-based circadian rhythm entrainment under model parameter perturbations as well as propose a feedback control law to improve the robustness of the entrainment strategy. Our study finds the model parameter whose perturbations affect the entrainment the most. We also find that feedback control reduces the sensivitity of the entrainment process to model parameter *** relevance— Circadian misalignment has negative impacts on health, such as higher risks of cardiovascular disease and cancer. We present a numerical study of how well optimized circadian rhythm entrainment plans that are derived from a generic mathematical model work on personalized cases.

p-diamond is a strong contender for sub-THz and THz applications specifically due to its large hole effective mass, high optical phonon energy, and, therefore, high momentum relaxation time, and high mobility. It has the potential for efficient operation in the 300 GHz band targeted for future 6G communications. We review some of the recent works on p-diamond TeraFETs demonstrating their potential to detect and transmit sub-THz and THz radiation. We also report on the potential of n-diamond TeraFETs or emerging terahertz applications. One of the main factors in our research that account for the plasma wave dampness of the electron stream is the viscosity of the charge carrier medium in the channel.
