When the speed condition of test set is different from that of training set or one of them is time-vary, normal dictionary learning is difficult to get a precise sparse representation. A special dictionary model named convolutional sparse dictionary (CSD) can overcome the influence from variable speed conditions by atoms locally shifting in the sample's dimension, which is beneficial to capture the local fault features in the signal no matter how the speed changes. However, there are both large features and small features in the mechanical vibration signal, and several continuous small features can also form a large feature. The problem is that CSD can only locally optimize the signal at a fixed scale, so the features of other scales cannot be optimized. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a model named deep convolutional sparse dictionary (DCSD) to extract bearing fault features under variable speed conditions, which is improved from CSD. DCSD has multiple dictionary layers, where each layer is a CSD, but the atom's dimensions are different in each layer. The larger the number of layer is, the larger the atom's dimension is, and the sparse representation result of each layer is used to train the next dictionary layer. Through simulations cases and experimental cases under variable speed conditions, it is proved that DCSD has better performances than CSD in the fault diagnosis.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17283,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Franklin Institute-engineering and Applied Mathematics","volume":"362 1","pages":"Article 107392"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142662793","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, a Linear Parameter Varying (LPV)-based structural state feedback gain-scheduled control design method is proposed and applied to longitudinal tracking control of a bio-inspired MWUAVs in the morphing process. Firstly, the LPV model for longitudinal dynamics of MWUAVs is developed, after that the flight envelopes and dynamical stability are analyzed based on the model, in which an unstable region is found. According to the analysis results, the mission profile is designed, and the tracking control problem is formulated as an optimization problem with input constraints. Then, a structural matrix is proposed which makes the states to feedback can be specified according to the signals to be tracked. Compared to the traditional all-state feedback control method, the proposed method has a simpler structure and is more applicable in real-world applications, especially when all states are not fully available. To avoid the numerical problems in the Bilinear Matrix Inequalities(BMIs) which are arisen from the solving process of the proposed control design method, we propose a solution approach that combines Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs) with the Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II) for control design based on the structural matrix.

The model is based on a discrete-time non-homogeneous Markov system with state capacities. In order to study the distributions of the state sizes, recursive formulae for their factorial and mixed factorial moments were derived in matrix form. As a consequence, the probability mass function of each state size can be evaluated in the transient period. To avoid the computational complexity of the proposed algorithm, an alternative method for the computation of the state size distributions was recommended. The proposed Markovian approach was then tailored to the characteristics of a SIQS (susceptible-infected-quarantined-susceptible) epidemic scheme, which took into account external infections and the potential for secondary infections. This epidemic model is well-suited for describing infections in computer networks, where the quarantine capacity can be likened to the number of working people (IT professionals) available to restore an infected computer. We presented numerical examples and sensitivity analysis to illustrate the behavior and performance of the system under different scenarios and parameter values. We show that the state capacities and the infection rates have significant effects on the evolution and extinction of the epidemic. We note that the optimal number of employed technicians can be identified, aiming to keep the computer network functional. Higher internal infection rates significantly affect the sustainability of the computer network, while controlling external infections is not always feasible. On the other hand, faster detection rates and higher malware elimination rates will considerably increase the number of computers that remain operational in the long term.

This paper focuses on proposing an adaptive connectivity-preserving formation control strategy that incorporates a dynamic event-triggering mechanism, in the scenario of the unknown control directions and intrinsic nonlinearities coupling with parameter uncertainties. First, a cluster of potential functions serving as control barrier functions are given to maintain the prescribed connectivity of communication graph. Second, two types of dynamic gains (one type is based on a Nussbaum function) are introduced for agents to cope with the system nonlinearities, uncertainties and the adverse effect of the execution error. As such, an adaptive event-triggered formation protocol is constructed such that the desired formation with connectivity preservation is achieved while a positive minimum inter-execution interval is ensured for each agent to avoid Zeno behavior. Particularly, the threshold in the developed event-triggering mechanism is dynamically adjusted online, rather than static, which better improves resource efficiency.
