To achieve secure quantum key distribution, all imperfections in the source unit must be incorporated in a security proof and measured in the lab. Here we perform a proof-of-principle demonstration of the experimental techniques for characterizing the source phase and intensity fluctuation in commercial quantum key distribution systems. When we apply the measured phase-fluctuation intervals to the security proof that takes into account fluctuations in the state preparation, it predicts a key distribution distance of over 100km of fiber. The measured intensity fluctuation intervals are, however, so large that the proof predicts zero key, indicating a source improvement may be needed. Our characterization methods pave the way for a future certification standard.

The application of tunnel robots in power tunnels is becoming more and more extensive. Due to various reasons, video jitter will inevitably occur during the inspection process, which will affect the real-time processing of subsequent images. In order to reduce the impact of video jitter and meet the requirements of real-time image processing, it is necessary to study fast video image stabilization methods. The traditional Kalman filtering algorithm has less computational cost, but it will cause a large estimation error when the system motion state changes. In this regard, the paper proposes an improved Kalman filtering algorithm, which changes the corresponding filter parameters by real-time estimation of a system in motion to reduce the estimation error. And this algorithm performs Harris corner extraction in the set feature dense area, and combines the PyrLK optical flow algorithm with the homography matrix to calculate the motion trajectory, which improves the calculation speed and accuracy of the algorithm. Experimental results show that this algorithm has better video stabilization effect and faster calculation speed compared with the traditional Kalman filtering algorithm, and can better meet the real-time image processing requirements in the inspection process.

This paper presents a nonlinear adaptive controller for pH neutralization process, which is difficult to control due to its nonlinear dynamics, sensibility to small disturbance and time-varying characteristics. Special attention is paid to the effect of internal perturbations and external disturbances typically present in the chemical process. In this work, the performance of the adaptive nonlinear controller based on feedback linearization (FL) is compared with the performance of a conventional PID controller for pH control. It is shown that conventional PID controller rejects input disturbances with poor performance, and the proposed control technique can reject the input disturbances from the control signal and then recovers linear reference tracking very well.

An extensive amount of research applications on traffic flow prediction models taking into account spatio-temporal modeling have been undertaken in recent years. Relative to traditional spatio-temporal modeling approaches, good application results have been achieved in predicting traffic flow. However, in real life, traffic flow proves to be time- and space-dependent, which poses difficulties for accurate modeling of traffic flow prediction. To address these problems, we propose the ST-GNN-GRU model, which mainly contains S-GNN and T-GRU modules. The model uses a combination of spatio-temporal modeling and deep learning, which can not only cope with the spatio-temporal modeling problem, but also improve the traffic flow prediction accuracy. The experiments are conducted using the METR-LA dataset, and the outcomes show that the proposed method performs more effectively than other baseline approaches.

Some researchers have worked on intermittent control and alternate control. In both cases, the choice of the control was a constant quantity. But, in real life, this situation is hard to come by for the reason that control may vary with time and circumstances owing to machine or human errors or both. Hence is the need to employ a method in which the control matrix is rather uncertain as is obtainable in real life. In this paper, we consider a more general model of both intermittent and alternate control which allows the control matrix to be fuzzy (uncertain). It turns out that both the classical intermittent and classical alternate controls are recovered in this mode.

The advancement of the wireless body area networks (WBAN) and sensor technologies allows us to collect a variety of physiological and behavioral data from human body. And appropriate application of machine learning methods can greatly promote the development of e-health. Nevertheless, the collected data contains personal privacy information. When using the machine learning methods to analyze the collected data, some information of the training data will be stored in the learning models unconsciously. To handle such information disclosure problem, we propose a differentially private classification algorithm based on ensemble decision tree with high utility for wireless body area networks. In order to improve the accuracy and stableness of classification, the bagging framework of ensemble learning is used in our algorithm. We aggregate the results of multiple private decision trees as the final classification in a weight-based voting way. For each private decision tree trained on the bootstrap samples, we offer a novel privacy budget allocation strategy that allows the nodes in larger depth to get more privacy budget, which can mitigate the problem of excessive noise introduced to leaf nodes to some extent. The better classification accuracy and stableness of this new algorithm, especially on small dataset, are demonstrated by simulation experiments.
