The integration of IoT with blockchain technology is seen as a promising solution to enhance data-driven agriculture. Blockchain provides a secure, decentralised, and transparent ledger that enhances data integrity, reduces fraud, and improves traceability, which complements IoT applications. The authors detail the development of an innovative system that orchestrates IoT and blockchain technologies to facilitate the adoption of new technologies in agriculture and overcomes the lacked of comprehensive data connectivity. It outlines a conceptual framework and its preliminary empirical implementation. The system consists of three integrated layers: the IoT layer, which creates digital twins of field crops; the blockchain layer, which secures and manages data from the field and external stakeholders for dynamic applications such as track and tracing; and the orchestration layer, which fuses physical and digital data to optimise business models, enhance supply chain productivity, and support governmental policy-making, thereby improving field productivity and food sector innovation.</p>","PeriodicalId":33286,"journal":{"name":"IET Collaborative Intelligent Manufacturing","volume":"6 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.2,"publicationDate":"2024-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/cim2.12109","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141292638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The numerous state parameters in the operation and maintenance of nuclear power turbines are collected, forming a complex high-dimensional feature space. These high-dimensional feature spaces contain redundant information, which increases the training cost and reduces the recognition accuracy and efficiency of the fault diagnosis model. To address the aforementioned challenges, a vibration fault diagnosis algorithm in nuclear power turbines is proposed. First, a long short-term memory-based denoising autoencoder (LDAE) is designed to enhance the capability of uncertainty awareness. Then, a feature extraction method integrating variational mode decomposition (VMD), L-cliffs-based effective mode selection, and sample entropy is devised to extract the latent features from the complex high-dimensional feature space. Furthermore, using extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) as the classifier, LDAE-VMD-XGBoost model is constructed for fault diagnosis of nuclear power turbines. Considering the impact of multiple hyperparameters of LDAE-VMD-XGBoost model on the performance, the pathfinder algorithm is used to optimise the model hyperparameter settings and improve the fault diagnosis accuracy.

Preserving individual privacy in energy forecasting is paramount, as it safeguards personal data from unauthorised examination. This highlights the importance of effectively handling local data to provide privacy protection. The authors proposed a DFL framework for residential energy forecasting, focusing on improving the performance and convergence of the collaborative model. The proposed framework enables local training of the long short-term memory model with real-time household energy data in a ring topology. Importantly, the framework addresses the issue of straggler nodes, nodes that lag in computation or communication, by proposing a heuristic straggler identification and mitigation mechanism to reduce their negative impact on overall system performance and communication efficiency. This approach improves collaborative energy prediction performance and ensures an overall reduction in waiting time, thus improving the convergence performance. Experimental results consistently demonstrate a low mean absolute error ranging from 3 to 3.2 across all edge nodes.
