This is usually employed by utilizing UAV s that are versatile. Cameras may be equipped to capture images for further assessment. In processing these, nature-inspired approaches have emerged such as the FA and PSO. Utilizing each on its own poses advantages and disadvantages but may be addressed by the proposed hybrid FA-PSO. Specifically, FA is simple and robust but falls short, given it lacks memory in storing the best solution. This is where PSO comes, where it can record both the local and the global best solution and provide faster convergence. The algorithm was tested using images from an aerial dataset for floating objects. Results show that the proposed algorithm was able to obtain faster convergence at the global optimum when compared to its traditional counterpart.","PeriodicalId":314726,"journal":{"name":"2023 IEEE Region 10 Symposium (TENSYMP)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116505608","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A probabilistic framework is used to ensure network security and mitigate computational difficulties and the volatility associated with real-time energy trading. The system employs a community manager who facilitates the matchmaking process by creating a filtered list of users for potential matches. To ensure network security, the likelihood of each user causing a voltage violation is pre-calculated. The study also explores the concept of acceptance level and generation limit, which helps curtail users who may potentially cause network violations. Simulation cases are conducted on a 30-node test system, evaluating the performance of the matchmaking system and analyzing user benefits. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the regulated matchmaking approach in securing the network and determining the optimal cut-off acceptance level. The research highlights the trade-off between user benefits and network security, showing that the regulated approach maintains significant user benefits while ensuring network security. The proposed P2P energy trading system provides a solution for efficient and secure energy transactions in distribution systems.","PeriodicalId":314726,"journal":{"name":"2023 IEEE Region 10 Symposium (TENSYMP)","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134013915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventionally, triple modular redundancy (TMR) has been widely used to guarantee 100% tolerance to any single fault or failure of a processing unit where the processing unit may be a circuit or system. However, TMR results in more than 200% overhead in area and power compared to a single processing unit. To reduce the overheads in design metrics associated with TMR, alternative redundancy approaches were presented in the literature but they guarantee only partial or moderate fault tolerance. Nevertheless, among these alternative redundancy approaches, the majority voter-based reduced precision redundancy (MVRPR) may be useful for naturally error-resilient applications like digital signal processing which is commonly used in space systems. The proposed FAC is ideally suited for error-resilient applications but unlike MVRPR which guarantees only a moderate fault tolerance, FAC guarantees a 100% tolerance to any single fault or failure of a processing unit like TMR. We considered TMR, MVRPR, and FAC to comparatively evaluate their performance for a digital image processing application. The image processing results obtained demonstrate the usefulness of FAC. Further, for a physical implementation using a 28-nm CMOS technology, FAC achieves a 15.3% reduction in delay, 19.5% reduction in area, and a 24.7% reduction in power compared to TMR, and an 18% reduction in delay, 5.4% reduction in area, and 11.2% reduction in power compared to MVRPR.","PeriodicalId":314726,"journal":{"name":"2023 IEEE Region 10 Symposium (TENSYMP)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125814541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, having energy management strategies (EMSs) focusing on both operational optimization and optimal planning becomes obligatory to achieve a cost-effective DCS. The contribution of this work is twofold: (a) optimal planning of the battery energy storage system to be integrated with the DCS, which is already equipped with thermal energy storage. (b) co-optimization of the multi-chiller system within the DCS and energy storage systems conjoined with it. Both the optimization problems are formulated as bi-level and mixed-integer non-linear programs, respectively. The proposed EMSs offer near-configurability and selective decision-making that enables system operators to adopt any scheduling strategies. Finally, the developed formulations are realized with the DCS at the Gujarat International Finance-Tec City, i.e., a special economic zone as a test bench, thereby illustrating the efficacy of the proposed EMSs for the cost-effective operation of DCS and energy storage systems.","PeriodicalId":314726,"journal":{"name":"2023 IEEE Region 10 Symposium (TENSYMP)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127839472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In emergency situations such as hardware failure or loss of communication links, UAVs must be able to land safely in an area that is flat and free of obstacles. Currently, most UAVs make use of global positioning system (GPS) receivers during mission and navigation which allows Return-To-Home features for advanced UAVs in emergency scenarios such as signal loss or low battery. However, problems arise if the UAV operates in a heterogeneous environment with no GPS signal accessible. In these GPS-denied areas, it is important to determine the terrain of the environment where the UAV is located to locate a safe space to land. This paper utilizes deep learning algorithms in YOLO architecture including YOLOv5, YOLOv6, YOLOv7, and YOLOv8 to determine the type of terrains obtained from aerial images. Based on the simulations done, the most recently developed YOLOv8 obtained the highest mean average precision (mAP@0.5:0.95) of 89.1, and F1 score of 90.8. Meanwhile, the YOLOv5, YOLOv6, and YOLOv7 obtained mean average precision (mAP@0.5:0.95) of 69.5, 78.1, and 68.8, respectively, and F1 scores of 77.8, 84.9, 85.7, and 81.7, respectively. With these results, it can be confirmed that YOLOv8 outweighs the performance of the other YOLO architecture models in terms of the mAP and F1 scores in determining the terrain.","PeriodicalId":314726,"journal":{"name":"2023 IEEE Region 10 Symposium (TENSYMP)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122497316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
