Intrusion detection is a fundamental part of security tools, such as adaptive security appliances, intrusion detection systems, intrusion prevention systems, and firewalls. Various intrusion detection ...

This paper explores a dual-channel closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) system consisting of a manufacturer and a retailer. The manufacturer is the CLSC Stackelberg leader. We investigate the effect of ...

Currently, the time of endurance of electric multicopters is still too short for many mission requirements, and optimizing the efficiency of the propulsion system is considered as an effective way to ...

The Industry 4.0 paradigm is boosting the relevance of predictive maintenance (PdM) for manufacturing and production industries. PdM strongly relies on Internet of Things (IoT), which digitalizes the ...

We propose a surrogate-assisted reference vector guided evolutionary algorithm (EA) for computationally expensive optimization problems with more than three objectives. The proposed algorithm is based ...

We present VAMPIRE, a software application for efficient, semi-automatic quantification of retinal vessel properties with large collections of fundus camera images. VAMPIRE is also an international ...

As a general and rigid mathematical tool, wavelet theory has found many applications and is constantly developing. This article reviews the development history of wavelet theory, from the construction ...

Transportable energy storage systems (TESSs) have great potential to enhance resilience of distribution systems (DSs) against large area blackouts. A joint post-disaster restoration scheme for TESS ...

In this paper, an atmospheric-pressure dielectric barrier discharge is used to modify the surface of the epoxy material and enhance the dissipation of surface charge to reduce the accumulation of ...

Memristor is an ideal electronic device used as an artificial nerve synapse due to its unique memory function. This article presents a design of a new Hopfield neural network (HNN) that can generate ...

In this paper, the fixed-time control problem of DC-DC buck converter systems with mismatched disturbances is investigated. Firstly, the sliding mode fixed-time observers are constructed to estimate ...

In this paper, we develop a cooperative control algorithm for a group of multirotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) transporting a suspended payload of unknown mass. In addition, the vehicles are ...
