However, insufficient fault data seriously limit the performance of fault diagnosis in industrial applications. In this paper, a novel domain adaptive and adversarial network (DAAN) is proposed for data-driven fault diagnosis of the rotating machinery, which consists of a deep feature extractor, a domain classifier, and a label adaptive predictor. The deep feature extractor and domain classifier are constructed to obtain domain-invariant features by domain-adversarial training. Then, in the label adaptive predictor, a domain adaptation technique is used to reduce the feature discrepancy between the source domain and the target domain, so as to establish a mapping relationship between the data feature distribution of the two domains. Furtherly, a new transfer diagnosis method is proposed by using the DAAN, which combines the data generated by experimental simulation with deep transfer learning, to realize end-to-end intelligent fault diagnosis of the in-service machinery with few unlabeled fault samples. The proposed method explores a new solution for applying laboratory data to intelligent fault diagnosis in real scenarios. Several transfer experiments are implemented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method by using 55 roller bearings and 4 gearboxes under various scenarios.

The recurrent layers of the SRNN process nonlinear information and capture temporal dependencies in the sensor data, while the regularization technique simplifies the model, making it both efficient and easier to interpret. Additionally, we introduce a novel feature: the dynamics of current, labeled as ΔI. This feature enables the SRNN model to efficiently detect the adsorption and desorption of gas molecules. We demonstrate that our model can distinguish between three intuitively indistinguishable datasets of gas species (NO<sub>2</sub>, HCHO, and a mixture) with up to 92 % accuracy. By utilizing the fast and competitive adsorption/desorption information of gas molecules, our model can be applied to various gas combination environments, unlike conventional gas sensing data measured over longer periods.

To obtain the necessary information, various on-board sensors are extensively integrated. In this paper, the reliability of measuring the relative angle with the Angle-of-Arrival (AoA) method with two different Internet of Things (IoT) sensor sets from Texas Instrument (TI) and u-blox, according to Bluetooth 5.1 was investigated.

The better IoT sensor was then integrated into the AGV navigation system, and the information gathered from IoT sensor enabled the AGV to turn toward the direction of the target. The process of AGV turning to the targeted direction based on IoT sensor information was respectively tested in the simulation and actual environment and evaluated by the disparity between the real relative angle and the rotation angle of the AGV. The results showed that this disparity was within ±5° in both simulated and actual environments, and methods for higher accuracy were proposed.

As societies strive towards environmental sustainability and socio-economic development, robust techniques to transform waste into energy become paramount. Assessment of waste-to-energy (WTE) techniques is based on a spectrum of criteria that are often vague and imprecise. The current study addresses this multi-criteria group decision-making problem of assessing and evaluating WTE methods for MSW management using q-rung orthopair picture fuzzy (qRPF) numbers. The study proposes an innovative combination of the Defining Interrelationships Between Ranked-criteria (DIBR) and Compromise Ranking of Alternatives from Distance to Ideal Solution (CRADIS) methods. The criteria are assessed using the recently developed DIBR method, while the alternatives are assessed using a popular distance-based method, namely CRADIS. Moreover, new confidence level-based aggregation operators for qRPF numbers are proposed and used to aggregate fuzzy data, while a novel triangular divergence-based distance measure is proposed and used to modify the existing CRADIS method. The results show that anaerobic digestion and pyrolysis are the two most preferred WTE methods for MSW management. An extensive comparative analysis demonstrates the applicability of the proposed methodology, while an exhaustive sensitivity analysis confirms the proposed method’s stability. The results of Spearman’s correlation coefficient validate the model’s practicality.
