In the process of using a long-span converter station steel structure, engineering disasters can easily occur. Structural monitoring is an important method to reduce hoisting risk. In previous engineering cases, the structural monitoring of long-span converter station steel structure hoisting is rare. Thus, no relevant hoisting experience can be referenced. Traditional monitoring methods have a small scope of application, making it difficult to coordinate monitoring and construction control. In the monitoring process, many problems arise, such as complicated installation processes, large-scale data processing, and large-scale installation errors. With a real-time structural monitoring system, the mechanical changes in the long-span converter station steel structure during the hoisting process can be monitored in real-time in order to achieve real-time warning of engineering disasters, timely identification of engineering issues, and allow for rapid decision-making, thus avoiding the occurrence of engineering disasters. Based on this concept, automatic monitoring and manual measurement of the mechanical changes in the longest long-span converter station steel structure in the world is carried out, and the monitoring results were compared with the corresponding numerical simulation results in order to develop a real-time structural monitoring system for the whole long-span converter station steel structure's multi-point lifting process. This approach collects the monitoring data and outputs the deflection, stress, strain, wind force, and temperature of the long-span converter station steel structure in real-time, enabling real-time monitoring to ensure the safety of the lifting process. This research offers a new method and basis for the structural monitoring of the multi-point hoisting of a long-span converter station steel structure.The Controller Area Network (CAN) bus works as an important protocol in the real-time In-Vehicle Network (IVN) systems for its simple, suitable, and robust architecture. The risk of IVN devices has still been insecure and vulnerable due to the complex data-intensive architectures which greatly increase the accessibility to unauthorized networks and the possibility of various types of cyberattacks. Therefore, the detection of cyberattacks in IVN devices has become a growing interest. With the rapid development of IVNs and evolving threat types, the traditional machine learning-based IDS has to update to cope with the security requirements of the current environment. Nowadays, the progression of deep learning, deep transfer learning, and its impactful outcome in several areas has guided as an effective solution for network intrusion detection. This manuscript proposes a deep transfer learning-based IDS model for IVN along with improved performance in comparison to several other existing models. this website The unique contributions include effective attribute selection which is best suited to identify malicious CAN messages and accurately detect the normal and abnormal activities, designing a deep transfer learning-based LeNet model, and evaluating considering real-world data. To this end, an extensive experimental performance evaluation has been conducted. The architecture along with empirical analyses shows that the proposed IDS greatly improves the detection accuracy over the mainstream machine learning, deep learning, and benchmark deep transfer learning models and has demonstrated better performance for real-time IVN security.Visual simultaneous localization and mapping (VSLAM) plays a vital role in the field of positioning and navigation. At the heart of VSLAM is visual odometry (VO), which uses continuous images to estimate the camera's ego-motion. However, due to many assumptions of the classical VO system, robots can hardly operate in challenging environments. To solve this challenge, we combine the multiview geometry constraints of the classical stereo VO system with the robustness of deep learning to present an unsupervised pose correction network for the classical stereo VO system. The pose correction network regresses a pose correction that results in positioning error due to violation of modeling assumptions to make the classical stereo VO positioning more accurate. The pose correction network does not rely on the dataset with ground truth poses for training. The pose correction network also simultaneously generates a depth map and an explainability mask. Extensive experiments on the KITTI dataset show the pose correction network can significantly improve the positioning accuracy of the classical stereo VO system. Notably, the corrected classical stereo VO system's average absolute trajectory error, average translational relative pose error, and average translational root-mean-square drift on a length of 100-800 m in the KITTI dataset is 13.77 cm, 0.038 m, and 1.08%, respectively. Therefore, the improved stereo VO system has almost reached the state of the art.In this paper, we propose a novel approach that enables simultaneous localization, mapping (SLAM) and objects recognition using visual sensors data in open environments that is capable to work on sparse data point clouds. In the proposed algorithm the ORB-SLAM uses the current and previous monocular visual sensors video frame to determine observer position and to determine a cloud of points that represent objects in the environment, while the deep neural network uses the current frame to detect and recognize objects (OR). In the next step, the sparse point cloud returned from the SLAM algorithm is compared with the area recognized by the OR network. Because each point from the 3D map has its counterpart in the current frame, therefore the filtration of points matching the area recognized by the OR algorithm is performed. The clustering algorithm determines areas in which points are densely distributed in order to detect spatial positions of objects detected by OR. Then by using principal component analysis (PCA)-based heuristic we estimate bounding boxes of detected objects. The image processing pipeline that uses sparse point clouds generated by SLAM in order to determine positions of objects recognized by deep neural network and mentioned PCA heuristic are main novelties of our solution. In contrary to state-of-the-art approaches, our algorithm does not require any additional calculations like generation of dense point clouds for objects positioning, which highly simplifies the task. We have evaluated our research on large benchmark dataset using various state-of-the-art OR architectures (YOLO, MobileNet, RetinaNet) and clustering algorithms (DBSCAN and OPTICS) obtaining promising results. Both our source codes and evaluation data sets are available for download, so our results can be easily reproduced.We exploit the use of a controller area network (CAN-bus) to monitor sensors on the buses of local public transportation in a big European city. The aim is to advise fleet managers and policymakers on how to reduce fuel consumption so that air pollution is controlled and public services are improved. link2 We deploy heuristic algorithms and exhaustive ones to generate Bayesian networks among the monitored variables. The aim is to describe the relevant relationships between the variables, to discover and confirm the possible cause-effect relationships, to predict the fuel consumption dependent on the contextual conditions of traffic, and to enable an intervention analysis to be conducted on the variables so that our goals are achieved. We propose a validation technique using Bayesian networks based on Granger causality it relies upon observations of the time series formed by successive values of the variables in time. We use the same method based on Granger causality to rank the Bayesian networks obtained as well. A comparison of the Bayesian networks discovered against the ground truth is proposed in a synthetic data set, specifically generated for this study the results confirm the validity of the Bayesian networks that agree on most of the existing relationships.In a traditional antenna array direction finding system, all the antenna sensors need to work or shut down at the same time, which often leads to signal crosstalk, signal distortion, and other electromagnetic compatibility problems. In addition, the direction-finding algorithm in a traditional system needs a tremendous spectral search, which consumes considerable time. To compensate for these deficiencies, a reconfigurable antenna array direction finding system is established in this paper. This system can dynamically load part or all of the antennas through microwave switches (such as a PIN diode) and conduct a fast direction of arrival (DOA) search. First, the hardware structure of the reconfigurable antenna is constructed. Then, based on the conventional spatial domain search algorithm, an improved transform domain (TD) search algorithm is proposed. The effectiveness of the system has been proven by real experiments, and the advantage of the system has been verified by detailed simulations.In the fields of humanoid robots, soft robotics, and wearable electronics, the development of artificial skins entails pressure sensors that are low in modulus, high in sensitivity, and minimal in hysteresis. However, few sensors in the literature can meet all the three requirements, especially in the low pressure range ( less then 10 kPa). This article presents a design for such pressure sensors. The bioinspired liquid-filled cell-type structural design endows the sensor with appropriate softness (Young's modulus less then 230 kPa) and high sensitivity (highest at 0.7 kPa-1) to compression forces below 0.65 N (6.8 kPa). The low-end detection limit is ~0.0012 N (13 Pa), only triple the mass of a bee. Minimal resistance hysteresis of the pressure sensor is 7.7%. The low hysteresis is attributed to the study on the carbon/silicone nanocomposite, which reveals the effect of heat treatment on its mechanical and electromechanical hysteresis. Pressure measurement range and sensitivity of the sensor can be tuned by changing the structure and strain gauge parameters. This concept of sensor design, when combined with microfluidics technology, is expected to enable soft, stretchable, and highly precise touch-sensitive artificial skins.We present an error tolerant path planning algorithm for Micro Aerial Vehicle (MAV) swarms. link3 We assume navigation without GPS-like techniques. The MAVs find their path using sensors and cameras, identifying and following a series of visual landmarks. The visual landmarks lead the MAVs towards their destination. MAVs are assumed to be unaware of the terrain and locations of the landmarks. They hold a priori information about landmarks, whose interpretation is prone to errors. Errors are of two types, recognition or advice. Recognition errors follow from misinterpretation of sensed data or a priori information, or confusion of objects, e.g., due to faulty sensors. Advice errors are consequences of outdated or wrong information about landmarks, e.g., due to weather conditions. Our path planning algorithm is cooperative. MAVs communicate and exchange information wirelessly, to minimize the number of recognition and advice errors. Hence, the quality of the navigation decision process is amplified. Our solution successfully achieves an adaptive error tolerant navigation system.
