The design of SSs requires estimating the possible output finite-time delay, e.g. due to the measurement process or transport phenomena, and selecting the correct model regressors. In this context, this paper presents a new method called multiple correlation delay and regressor selection (MC-DRS), which can be used to simultaneously identify the output finite-time delay and the regressors for dynamic models in the class of finite impulse-response models. The method, which belongs to the class of filter approaches, uses data stored in historical databases and solves problems caused by the collinearity of the inputs. The MC-DRS has a low computational complexity and outperforms existing model-agnostic methods such as correlation-based methods (Pearson, Kendall, Spearman and distance correlations), maximal information coefficient, Lipshitz quotients and minimum redundancy maximum relevance algorithm. Synthetic case studies and an industrial benchmark validate its effectiveness and underline its advantages in SS design for Industry 4.0 applications. In detail, the results obtained show that the proposed method was able to detect the correct finite-time delay and the number of regressors in 100% of the case studies. None of the other methods were able to correctly identify both system parameters. Among these methods, the distance correlation was able to detect the finite-time delay in 50% of the cases, while the Lipshitz quotients were able to detect the number of regressors in 50% of the cases.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50615,"journal":{"name":"Control Engineering Practice","volume":"157 ","pages":"Article 106267"},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143143300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) has emerged as a promising method for solving daily irrigation scheduling problems in spatially variable fields, where management zones are employed to account for field variability. To enhance the application of MARL to address daily irrigation scheduling in large-scale fields with significant spatial variation, this study proposes a Semi-Centralized MARL (SCMARL) framework. The SCMARL framework adopts a hierarchical structure, decomposing the daily irrigation scheduling problem into two levels of decision-making. At the top level, a centralized coordinator agent determines irrigation timing, which is modeled as a discrete variable, based on field-wide soil moisture data, crop conditions, and weather forecasts. At the lower level, decentralized local agents use local soil moisture, crop, and weather information to determine the appropriate irrigation amounts for each management zone. To address the issue of non-stationarity in this framework, a state augmentation technique is employed, wherein the coordinator’s decision is incorporated into the decision-making process of the local agents. The SCMARL framework, which leverages the Proximal Policy Optimization algorithm for training the agents, is evaluated on a large-scale field in Lethbridge, Canada, and compared with an existing MARL irrigation scheduling approach. The results demonstrate improved performance, achieving a 4.0% reduction in water use and a 6.3% increase in irrigation water use efficiency.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50615,"journal":{"name":"Control Engineering Practice","volume":"155 ","pages":"Article 106183"},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143176191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing work has been exploring using low-cost, real-time surface motor power instead of installing dynamometer sensors at the wellhead for diagnosing faults. However, the high similarity of motor power samples across pumping condition categories leads to time-consuming and laborious manual labeling. Additionally, variations between wells cause shifting in the motor power feature distribution, reducing the diagnosis accuracy of traditional deep learning-based diagnoses. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a novel adversarial domain adaptation network with norm constraints (ADANN) for diagnosing faults in pumping units. First, the approach redefines feature extraction by incorporating modulated deformable convolution layers in place of traditional convolution modules within the deep residual network, thereby allowing for more precise and adaptive capture of geometric variations in motor power features. During domain adaptation, we innovatively introduce a norm-constrained alignment strategy into the domain adversarial training. The norm constraint, by maximizing the output variance of the batch normalization layer, encourages the model to learn more dispersed feature representations. This further enhances the ability of domain adversarial training to learn domain-invariant features, thereby improving generalization performance on the unlabeled target domain. Finally, comparative experiments on the collected dataset from real oil wells demonstrate the superior performance of ADANN.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50615,"journal":{"name":"Control Engineering Practice","volume":"157 ","pages":"Article 106265"},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143143301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Electrification of rail routes, along with the integration of renewable energy sources (RES), has become critical for enhancing energy efficiency and minimizing emissions. This study explores the integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems and energy storage systems (ESS) into AC railways, focusing on their impact on energy consumption and overall system performance. A mathematical model of the railway system is developed, and two case studies are performed on a standard AC railway route servicing suburban train. The model’s accuracy is validated according to the British Standard EN50641 under both normal and outage conditions, with results generally aligning with reference values, except for a minor deviation observed during outage scenarios. In Case Study 1, an initial examination compares integration at the substation level with integration at the catenary level, aiming to provide insights into various integration locations. The analysis reveals that the lowest daily operational cost is achieved at the substation integration point (0 km). However, integration at the 20 km catenary point achieves a comparable cost reduction, with a decrease of 8.6%, and the cost difference between the two locations is negligible, at only 0.01%. Following this, Case Study 2 investigates how varying capacities of PV and ESS affect energy generation and daily operational costs. The findings indicate that increasing capacities leads to expected reductions in both energy generation and operational costs. Nevertheless, these cost reductions may not be optimal due to the ESS control strategy employed in the study.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50615,"journal":{"name":"Control Engineering Practice","volume":"157 ","pages":"Article 106252"},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143143288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To tackle these challenges, this paper proposes a bidirectional heterogeneous synergistic model (BHS) based on multiple local groups. Specifically, a heterogeneity-constrained agglomerative hierarchical clustering method is developed to capture and optimize the heterogeneity between local groups. Next, multiple feature extractors are constructed to capture fine-grained local features, enhancing the capability of large-scale systems to represent critical information. Subsequently, a bidirectional attention mechanism based on mutual information is proposed to synergistically uncover subsystem correlations within the same system, compensating for the loss of multiscale synergy during local modeling. Finally, feature fusion is employed to integrate information across subsystems, enabling unsupervised modeling for large-scale industrial systems.

Current dynamic latent-variable methods generally assume that the dynamics of the process are fixed. This assumption has two implications. First, the system is not influenced by external inputs. Second, the system parameters remain time-invariant. However, in real industrial scenarios, systems are often regulated by manipulated variables and their parameters may drift over time. Failure to account for these time-varying factors will result in an increasing disparity between existing models and the actual system, ultimately leading to unreliable monitoring results. To address this issue, a Hybrid Input–Output Probabilistic Slow Feature Analysis (H-IOPSFA) model is proposed along with an adaptive process monitoring approach. The H-IOPSFA model is designed to account for the directed effect of the manipulated variables on the system dynamics and process variables in the presence of continuous and binary variables. A recursive model updating method is then introduced to accommodate normal process changes, offering significantly faster convergence than training from scratch. Additionally, by simultaneously monitoring dynamic and static variations, an adaptive monitoring strategy is developed to effectively differentiate between real faults and operating condition changes. Finally, the H-IOPSFA model and the adaptive monitoring method are applied to the TE process and a practical industrial process. Compared with classical dynamic monitoring methods, the proposed method achieves the highest fault detection rate (98.63% on the TE and 96.61% on the practical process) while realizing an acceptable fault alarm rata (8.23% on the TE and 7.33% on the practical process), which demonstrates its superior performance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50615,"journal":{"name":"Control Engineering Practice","volume":"157 ","pages":"Article 106254"},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143143290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
