This paper discusses how to calculate the compensation voltages in dynamic voltage restorers (DVR) by use of PQR power theory. Directly sensed three-phase voltages are transformed to p-q-r coordinates without time delay, then the reference voltages in p-q-r coordinates have very simple form: dc values. The controller in p-q-r coordinates is very simple and clear, has better steady state and dynamic performance than conventional controllers. The controlled variables in p-q-r coordinates are then inversely transformed to the original a-b-c coordinates instantaneously, generating reference compensation voltages to a DVR. The control algorithm can be used for various kinds of series compensators such as dynamic voltage restorers (DVR), series active filters (SAP), synchronous static series compensators (SSSC), and bootstrap variable inductances (BVI). The control algorithm was applied to an experimental DVR system. The experimental results verified the performance of the proposed control algorithm.

One major challenge with integrating photovoltaic (PV) systems into the grid is that its power generation is intermittent and uncontrollable due to the variation in solar radiation. An accurate PV power forecasting is crucial to the safe operation of the grid connected PV power station. In this work, a combined model with three different PV forecasting models is proposed based on a rough set method. The combination weights for each individual model are determined by rough set method according to its significance degree of condition attribute. The three different forecasting models include a past-power persistence model, a support vector machine (SVM) model and a similar data prediction model. The case study results show that, in comparison with each single forecasting model, the proposed combined model can identify the amount of useful information in a more effective manner.

Existing explainability approaches for convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are mainly applied after training (post-hoc) which is generally unreliable. Ante-hoc explainers trained simultaneously with the CNN are more reliable. However, current ante-hoc explanation methods mainly generate inexplicit concept-based explanations tailored to specific tasks. To address these limitations, we propose a task-agnostic ante-hoc framework that can generate interpretation maps to visually explain any CNN. Our framework simultaneously trains the CNN and a weighting network - an explanation generation module. The generated maps are self-explanatory, eliminating the need for manual identification of concepts. We demonstrate that our method can interpret classification, facial landmark detection, and image captioning tasks. We show that our framework is explicit, faithful, and stable through experiments. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first ante-hoc CNN explanation strategy that produces visual explanations generic to CNNs for different tasks.

Typical mobile robots can be modeled as parallel mechanisms by employing an interfacing variable between the ground and the wheels. Based on this conception, this work employs the screw theory as an alternative approach to model such parallel-natured mobile robots. The screw approach not only facilitates the geometric interpretation in the process of inverse and forward kinematics by employing the concept of reciprocal screws, but also provides a meaningful closed-form solution. Specifically, in this work the screw-based kinematic modeling and geometric analysis are carried out for the popular differential-driven mobile robot with a caster wheel. This work shows that the screw-based kinematic approach not only facilitates kinematic modeling for different generalized inputs, but also provides a useful tool to model the redundant actuation case. The proposed approach can also be applied to kinematic modeling and analysis of general type of mobile robots.

A search and rescue (SAR) robot, named LUKER-I, is introduced to replace people to access to the accident scene when the underground gas and dust explosion happen under coal mine. The body of robot LUKER-I adopts tracked differential driven means, and has a fin arm tracked institutions. Robot can cross the barriers such as stairs, ditches, steep slopes and convex units based on different swing angle assistant. The control system uses two layers architecture, namely the bottom control network and IPC. IPC is mainly in charge of data acquisition, compression, and transmission of the voice and images of the scene. While the bottom layer uses CAN bus network to achieve the maintainability, expanded performance, and real-time control based on modular and distributed control. The working principle and design means of the robot are described detail in the paper. A modular method is used to carry out a detailed design.
The complex ocean environment leads to low contrast in underwater images and poor target visibility. In addition, the detected objects have multi-scale properties and clustering issues, making marine object detection ...

A new parallel grasper mechanism having 3-DOF spherical motions is proposed. The mechanism consists of one parallel four-bar chain and four serial sub-chains that are connected in parallel to the four-bar chain. Particularly, all joint axes of the mechanism are placed to have a common intersection point securing that all joint motion spaces of the mechanism are confined within the 3-DOF spherical motion spaces. Thus, the mechanism can not only grasp irregular shaped objects by changing configuration of its four-bar chain, but also exhibit 3 DOF spherical motions after grasping. The position analysis and kinematic analysis of the mechanism are performed. Also, its kinematic characteristics are investigated through simulation in aspects of three kinematic design indices. Lastly, a prototype was developed and tested through motion tracking and grasping experiments.
