Traditional vision-based methods rely heavily on visual features, which are often inadequate in low-light or feature-sparse environments. This study presents a novel approach to measure the axial velocity of UAVs using motion blur images captured by a UAV-mounted monocular camera. We introduce a motion blur model that synthesizes imaging from neighboring frames to enhance motion blur visibility. The synthesized blur frames are transformed into spectrograms using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) technique. We then apply a binarization process and the Radon transform to extract light-dark stripe spacing, which represents the motion blur length. This length is used to establish a model correlating motion blur with axial velocity, allowing precise velocity calculation. Field tests in a hydropower station penstock demonstrated an average velocity error of 0.048 m/s compared to ultra-wideband (UWB) measurements. The root-mean-square error was 0.025, with an average computational time of 42.3 ms and CPU load of 17%.

The linearization relies on Taylor series expansion and on the associated Jacobian matrices. For the linearized state-space model of the 3-DOF cable-driven parallel robot a stabilizing optimal (H-infinity) feedback controller is designed. To compute the controller’s feedback gains an algebraic Riccati equation is repetitively solved at each iteration of the control algorithm.

To address the problem of poor combination effect and low prediction accuracy of current dynamic graph neural networks in spatial and temporal domains, and over-smoothing caused by traditional graph neural networks, a dynamic graph prediction method based on spatiotemporal binary-domain recurrent-like architecture is proposed: Binary Domain Graph Neural Network (BDGNN). The proposed model begins by utilizing a modified Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) without an activation function to extract meaningful graph topology information, ensuring non-redundant embeddings. In the temporal domain, Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and residual systems are employed to facilitate the transfer of dynamic graph node information between learner weights, aiming to mitigate the impact of noise within the graph sequence. In the spatial domain, the AdaBoost (Adaptive Boosting) algorithm is applied to replace the traditional approach of stacking layers in a graph neural network. This allows for the utilization of multiple independent graph learners, enabling the extraction of higher-order neighborhood information and alleviating the issue of over-smoothing. The efficacy of BDGNN is evaluated through a series of experiments, with performance metrics including Mean Average Precision (MAP) and Mean Reciprocal Rank (MRR) for link prediction tasks, as well as metrics for traffic speed regression tasks across diverse test sets. Compared with other models, the better experiments results demonstrate that BDGNN model can not only better integrate the connection between time and space information, but also extract higher-order neighbor information to alleviate the over-smoothing phenomenon of the original GCN.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s43684-024-00067-9.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142413589","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}

In the context of smart logistics, the new trend of utilizing knowledge graph (KG) for fault diagnosis is gradually emerging, bringing new opportunities to improve the efficiency and accuracy of fault diagnosis in the era of Industry 4.0. The operating environment of cargo UAVs is complex, and their faults are typically closely related to it. However, the available data only considers faults and maintenance data, making it difficult to diagnose faults accurately. Moreover, the existing KG suffers from the problem of confusing entity boundaries during the extraction process, which leads to lower extraction efficiency. Therefore, a fault diagnosis knowledge graph (FDKG) for cargo UAVs constructed based on multi-domain fusion and incorporating an attention mechanism is proposed. Firstly, the multi-domain ontology modeling is realized based on the multi-domain fault diagnosis concept analysis expression model and multi-dimensional similarity calculation method for cargo UAVs. Secondly, a multi-head attention mechanism is added to the BERT-BILSTM-CRF network model for entity extraction, relationship extraction is performed through ERNIE, and the extracted triples are stored in the Neo4j graph database. Finally, the DJI cargo UAV failure is taken as an example for validation, and the results show that the new model based on multi-domain fusion data is better than the traditional model, and the precision rate, recall rate, and F1 value can reach 87.52%, 90.47%, and 88.97%, respectively.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s43684-024-00072-y.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142412924","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}
