Therefore, evaluation and inferring the data perfectly to prevent fire related accidental risk in underground coal mining (UMC) system are very necessary. In the present article, we have proposed a novel type-2 fuzzy logic system (T2FLS) for the prediction of fire intensity and its risk assessment for risk reduction in an underground coal mine. Recently, for the observation of underground coal mines, wireless underground sensor network (WUSN) are being concerned frequently. To implement this technique IT2FLS, main functional components are sensor nodes which are installed in coal mines to accumulate different imprecise environmental data like, temperature, relative humidity, different gas concentrations etc. and these are sent to a base station which is connected to the ground observation system through network. In the present context, a WUSN based fire monitoring system is developed using fuzzy logic approach to enhance the consistency in decision making system to improve the risk chances of fire during coal mining. We have taken Mamdani IT2FLS as fuzzy model on coal mine monitoring data to consider real-time decision making (DM). It is predicted from the simulated results that the recommended system is highly acceptable and amenable in the case of fire hazard safety with compared to the wired and off-line monitoring system for UMC.

The growth in the sizes of IoT networks with more internet‑connected devices has led to concerns regarding privacy and security. In particular, related to the routing protocol for low‑power and lossy networks (RPL), which lacks robust security functions, many IoT devices in RPL networks are resource‑constrained, with limited computing power, bandwidth, memory, and bat‑tery life. This causes them to face various vulnerabilities and potential attacks, such as DIO neighbor suppression attacks. This type of attack specifcally targets neighboring nodes through DIO messages and poses a signifcant security threat to RPL‑based IoT networks. Recent studies have proposed methods for detecting and mitigating this attack;however, they produce high false‑positive and false‑negative rates in detection tasks and cannot fully protect RPL networks against this attack type. In this paper, we propose a novel fuzzy logic‑based intrusion detection scheme to secure the RPL protocol (FLSec‑RPL) to protect against this attack. Our method is built of three key phases consecu‑tively: (1) it tracks attack activity variables to determine potential malicious behaviors;(2) it performs fuzzy logic‑based intrusion detection to identify malicious neighbor nodes;and (3) it provides a detection validation and blocking mechanism to ensure that both malicious and suspected malicious nodes are accurately detected and blocked. To evaluate the efectiveness of our method, we conduct comprehensive experiments across diverse scenarios, including Static‑RPL and Mobile‑RPL networks. We compare the performance of our proposed method with that of the state‑of‑the‑art methods. The results demonstrate that our method outperforms existing methods in terms of the detection accuracy, F1 score, power consumption, end‑to‑end delay, and packet delivery ratio metrics.展开更多

Thus, they naturally inherit the merits of both IT2 FSs and NNs. Although IT2 FNNs have more advantages in processing uncertain, incomplete, or imprecise information compared to their type-1 counterparts, a large number of parameters need to be tuned in the IT2 FNNs,which increases the difficulties of their design. In this paper,big bang-big crunch(BBBC) optimization and particle swarm optimization(PSO) are applied in the parameter optimization for Takagi-Sugeno-Kang(TSK) type IT2 FNNs. The employment of the BBBC and PSO strategies can eliminate the need of backpropagation computation. The computing problem is converted to a simple feed-forward IT2 FNNs learning. The adoption of the BBBC or the PSO will not only simplify the design of the IT2 FNNs, but will also increase identification accuracy when compared with present methods. The proposed optimization based strategies are tested with three types of interval type-2 fuzzy membership functions(IT2FMFs) and deployed on three typical identification models. Simulation results certify the effectiveness of the proposed parameter optimization methods for the IT2 FNNs.展开更多

Challenge is to identify the vulnerable nodes and apply the effective corrective actions. This paper presents a probabilistic fuzzy approach to assess the node status and proposes feeder reconfiguration as a method to address the same. Feeder reconfiguration is altering the topological structures of distribution feeders by changing the open/closed states of the sectionalizing and ties switches. The solution is converge using a probabilistic fuzzy modeled solution, which defines the nodal vulnerability index (VI) as a function of node voltage and node voltage stability index and predicts nodes critical to voltage collapse. The information is further used to plan best combination of feeders from each loop in distribution system to be switched out such that the resulting configuration gives the optimal performance i.e. best voltage profile and minimal kW losses. The proposed method is tested on established radial distribution system and results are presented.展开更多

First, we develop a new technique for the addition of various fuzzy numbers in a path using -cuts. Then, we present a dynamic programming method for finding a shortest path in the network. For this, we apply a recently proposed distance function for comparison of fuzzy numbers. Four examples are worked out to illustrate the applicability of the proposed approach as compared to two other methods in the literature as well as demonstrate the novel feature offered by our algorithm to find a fuzzy shortest path in mixed fuzzy networks with various settings for the fuzzy arc lengths.展开更多

Methodologically, the geographic information system (GIS) is used to determine the optimum site for a solar power plant. It is intended to integrate the qualitative and quantitative variables based upon the adoption of the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (Fuzzy AHP) and the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) model. These methods are employed to unite the environmental aspects and social needs for electrical power systematically. Regarding a case study of the choice of a solar power plant site in Thailand, it demonstrates that the quantitative and qualitative criteria should be realized prior to analysis in the Fuzzy AHP-TOPSIS model. The fuzzy AHP is employed to determine the weights of qualitative and quantitative criteria that can affect the selection process. The adoption of the fuzzy AHP is aimed to model the linguistic unclear, ambiguous, and incomplete knowledge. Additionally, TOPSIS, which is a ranking multi-criteria decision making method, is employed to rank the alternative sites based upon overall efficiency. The contribution of this paper lies in the evolution of a new approach that is flexible and practical to the decision maker, in providing the guidelines for the solar power plant site choices under stakeholder needs: at the same time, the desirable functions are achieved, in avoiding flood, reducing cost, time and causing less environmental impact. The new approach is assessed in the empirical study during major flooding in Thailand during the fourth quarter of 2011 to 2012. The result analysis and sensitivity analysis are also presented.展开更多

However, the overfitting problem often occurs due to the small number of samples obtained in history. This paper proposes the FuzzySVM(support vector machine) geotechnical engineering risk analysis method based on the Bayesian network. The proposed method utilizes the fuzzy set theory to build a Bayesian network to reflect prior knowledge, and utilizes the SVM to build a Bayesian network to reflect historical samples. Then a Bayesian network for evaluation is built in Bayesian estimation method by combining prior knowledge with historical samples. Taking seismic damage evaluation of slopes as an example, the steps of the method are stated in detail. The proposed method is used to evaluate the seismic damage of 96 slopes along roads in the area affected by the Wenchuan earthquake. The evaluation results show that the method can solve the overfitting problem, which often occurs if the machine learning methods are used to evaluate risk of geotechnical engineering, and the performance of the method is much better than that of the previous machine learning methods. Moreover,the proposed method can also effectively evaluate various geotechnical engineering risks in the absence of some influencing factors.展开更多

Because of complexity and uncertainty of the coal seam, the expression of influence factors was diffi-culty with exact data. According to the fuzzy and uncertainty of influence factors, triangular fuzzy membership functions were adopted to carry out the factors ambiguity, of which the factors not only have the consistency of semantic meaning, but also dissolve sufficiently expert knowledge. Based on the properties and structures of fasART fuzzy neural net-works of fuzzy logic system and practical needs, a simplified fasART model was put for-ward, stability and reliability of the network were improved, the deficiency of learning sam-ples and uncertainty of the factors were better treated. The method is of effective and practical value was identified by experiments.展开更多

The proposed management system is designed to manage the power flow between the hybrid power system and energy storage elements in order to satisfy the load requirements based on artificial neural network (ANN) and fuzzy logic controllers. The neural network controller is employed to achieve the maximum power point (MPP) for different types of photovoltaic (PV) panels. The advance fuzzy logic controller is developed to distribute the power among the hybrid system and to manage the charge and discharge current flow for performance optimization. The developed management system performance was assessed using a hybrid system comprised PV panels, wind turbine (WT), battery storage, and proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). To improve the generating performance of the PEMFC and prolong its life, stack temperature is controlled by a fuzzy logic controller. The dynamic behavior of the proposed model is examined under different operating conditions. Real-time measured parameters are used as inputs for the developed system. The proposed model and its control strategy offer a proper tool for optimizing hybrid power system performance, such as that used in smart-house applications.展开更多

Although IT2 FNNs have more advantages in processing uncertain, incomplete, or imprecise information compared to their type-1 counterparts, a large number of parameters need to be tuned in the IT2 FNNs,which increases the difficulties of their design. In this paper,big bang-big crunch(BBBC) optimization and particle swarm optimization(PSO) are applied in the parameter optimization for Takagi-Sugeno-Kang(TSK) type IT2 FNNs. The employment of the BBBC and PSO strategies can eliminate the need of backpropagation computation. The computing problem is converted to a simple feed-forward IT2 FNNs learning. The adoption of the BBBC or the PSO will not only simplify the design of the IT2 FNNs, but will also increase identification accuracy when compared with present methods. The proposed optimization based strategies are tested with three types of interval type-2 fuzzy membership functions(IT2FMFs) and deployed on three typical identification models. Simulation results certify the effectiveness of the proposed parameter optimization methods for the IT2 FNNs.
文摘The implementation of Countermeasure Techniques(CTs)in the context of Network-On-Chip(NoC)based Multiprocessor System-On-Chip(MPSoC)routers against the Flooding Denial-of-Service Attack(F-DoSA)falls under Multi-Criteria Decision-Making(MCDM)due to the three main concerns,called:traffic variations,multiple evaluation criteria-based traffic features,and prioritization NoC routers as an alternative.In this study,we propose a comprehensive evaluation of various NoC traffic features to identify the most efficient routers under the F-DoSA scenarios.Consequently,an MCDM approach is essential to address these emerging challenges.While the recent MCDM approach has some issues,such as uncertainty,this study utilizes Fuzzy-Weighted Zero-Inconsistency(FWZIC)to estimate the criteria weight values and Fuzzy Decision by Opinion Score Method(FDOSM)for ranking the routers with fuzzy Single-valued Neutrosophic under names(SvN-FWZIC and SvN-FDOSM)to overcome the ambiguity.The results obtained by using the SvN-FWZIC method indicate that the Max packet count has the highest importance among the evaluated criteria,with a weighted score of 0.1946.In contrast,the Hop count is identified as the least significant criterion,with a weighted score of 0.1090.The remaining criteria fall within a range of intermediate importance,with enqueue time scoring 0.1845,packet count decremented and traversal index scoring 0.1262,packet count incremented scoring 0.1124,and packet count index scoring 0.1472.In terms of ranking,SvN-FDOSM has two approaches:individual and group.Both the individual and group ranking processes show that(Router 4)is the most effective router,while(Router 3)is the lowest router under F-DoSA.The sensitivity analysis provides a high stability in ranking among all 10 scenarios.This approach offers essential feedback in making proper decisions in the design of countermeasure techniques in the domain of NoC-based MPSoC.
文摘Two common problems for a typical Power distribution system are voltage collapse & instability. Challenge is to identify the vulnerable nodes and apply the effective corrective actions. This paper presents a probabilistic fuzzy approach to assess the node status and proposes feeder reconfiguration as a method to address the same. Feeder reconfiguration is altering the topological structures of distribution feeders by changing the open/closed states of the sectionalizing and ties switches. The solution is converge using a probabilistic fuzzy modeled solution, which defines the nodal vulnerability index (VI) as a function of node voltage and node voltage stability index and predicts nodes critical to voltage collapse. The information is further used to plan best combination of feeders from each loop in distribution system to be switched out such that the resulting configuration gives the optimal performance i.e. best voltage profile and minimal kW losses. The proposed method is tested on established radial distribution system and results are presented.
文摘Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks(UWSNs)are gaining popularity because of their potential uses in oceanography,seismic activity monitoring,environmental preservation,and underwater mapping.Yet,these networks are faced with challenges such as self-interference,long propagation delays,limited bandwidth,and changing network topologies.These challenges are coped with by designing advanced routing protocols.In this work,we present Under Water Fuzzy-Routing Protocol for Low power and Lossy networks(UWF-RPL),an enhanced fuzzy-based protocol that improves decision-making during path selection and traffic distribution over different network nodes.Our method extends RPL with the aid of fuzzy logic to optimize depth,energy,Received Signal Strength Indicator(RSSI)to Expected Transmission Count(ETX)ratio,and latency.Theproposed protocol outperforms other techniques in that it offersmore energy efficiency,better packet delivery,lowdelay,and no queue overflow.It also exhibits better scalability and reliability in dynamic underwater networks,which is of very high importance in maintaining the network operations efficiency and the lifetime of UWSNs optimized.Compared to other recent methods,it offers improved network convergence time(10%–23%),energy efficiency(15%),packet delivery(17%),and delay(24%).

文摘Wind energy has emerged as a potential replacement for fossil fuel-based energy sources.To harness maximum wind energy,a crucial decision in the development of an efficient wind farm is the optimal layout design.This layout defines the specific locations of the turbines within the wind farm.The process of finding the optimal locations of turbines,in the presence of various technical and technological constraints,makes the wind farm layout design problem a complex optimization problem.This problem has traditionally been solved with nature-inspired algorithms with promising results.The performance and convergence of nature-inspired algorithms depend on several parameters,among which the algorithm termination criterion plays a crucial role.Timely convergence is an important aspect of efficient algorithm design because an inefficient algorithm results in wasted computational resources,unwarranted electricity consumption,and hardware stress.This study provides an in-depth analysis of several termination criteria while using the genetic algorithm as a test bench,with its application to the wind farm layout design problem while considering various wind scenarios.The performance of six termination criteria is empirically evaluated with respect to the quality of solutions produced and the execution time involved.Due to the conflicting nature of these two attributes,fuzzy logic-based multi-attribute decision-making is employed in the decision process.Results for the fuzzy decision approach indicate that among the various criteria tested,the criterion Phi achieves an improvement in the range of 2.44%to 32.93%for wind scenario 1.For scenario 2,Best-worst termination criterion performed well compared to the other criteria evaluated,with an improvement in the range of 1.2%to 9.64%.For scenario 3,Hitting bound was the best performer with an improvement of 1.16%to 20.93%.
文摘We present a novel approach for computing a shortest path in a mixed fuzzy network, network having various fuzzy arc lengths. First, we develop a new technique for the addition of various fuzzy numbers in a path using -cuts. Then, we present a dynamic programming method for finding a shortest path in the network. For this, we apply a recently proposed distance function for comparison of fuzzy numbers. Four examples are worked out to illustrate the applicability of the proposed approach as compared to two other methods in the literature as well as demonstrate the novel feature offered by our algorithm to find a fuzzy shortest path in mixed fuzzy networks with various settings for the fuzzy arc lengths.
文摘The objective of this research is to propose a decision support system for avoiding flood on solar power plant site selection. Methodologically, the geographic information system (GIS) is used to determine the optimum site for a solar power plant. It is intended to integrate the qualitative and quantitative variables based upon the adoption of the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (Fuzzy AHP) and the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) model. These methods are employed to unite the environmental aspects and social needs for electrical power systematically. Regarding a case study of the choice of a solar power plant site in Thailand, it demonstrates that the quantitative and qualitative criteria should be realized prior to analysis in the Fuzzy AHP-TOPSIS model. The fuzzy AHP is employed to determine the weights of qualitative and quantitative criteria that can affect the selection process. The adoption of the fuzzy AHP is aimed to model the linguistic unclear, ambiguous, and incomplete knowledge. Additionally, TOPSIS, which is a ranking multi-criteria decision making method, is employed to rank the alternative sites based upon overall efficiency. The contribution of this paper lies in the evolution of a new approach that is flexible and practical to the decision maker, in providing the guidelines for the solar power plant site choices under stakeholder needs: at the same time, the desirable functions are achieved, in avoiding flood, reducing cost, time and causing less environmental impact. The new approach is assessed in the empirical study during major flooding in Thailand during the fourth quarter of 2011 to 2012. The result analysis and sensitivity analysis are also presented.

文摘Machine learning method has been widely used in various geotechnical engineering risk analysis in recent years. However, the overfitting problem often occurs due to the small number of samples obtained in history. This paper proposes the FuzzySVM(support vector machine) geotechnical engineering risk analysis method based on the Bayesian network. The proposed method utilizes the fuzzy set theory to build a Bayesian network to reflect prior knowledge, and utilizes the SVM to build a Bayesian network to reflect historical samples. Then a Bayesian network for evaluation is built in Bayesian estimation method by combining prior knowledge with historical samples. Taking seismic damage evaluation of slopes as an example, the steps of the method are stated in detail. The proposed method is used to evaluate the seismic damage of 96 slopes along roads in the area affected by the Wenchuan earthquake. The evaluation results show that the method can solve the overfitting problem, which often occurs if the machine learning methods are used to evaluate risk of geotechnical engineering, and the performance of the method is much better than that of the previous machine learning methods. Moreover,the proposed method can also effectively evaluate various geotechnical engineering risks in the absence of some influencing factors.
文摘Distinguishing the difficulty degree of top coal caving was a precondition of the popularization and application of the roadway sub-level caving in steep seam. Because of complexity and uncertainty of the coal seam, the expression of influence factors was diffi-culty with exact data. According to the fuzzy and uncertainty of influence factors, triangular fuzzy membership functions were adopted to carry out the factors ambiguity, of which the factors not only have the consistency of semantic meaning, but also dissolve sufficiently expert knowledge. Based on the properties and structures of fasART fuzzy neural net-works of fuzzy logic system and practical needs, a simplified fasART model was put for-ward, stability and reliability of the network were improved, the deficiency of learning sam-ples and uncertainty of the factors were better treated. The method is of effective and practical value was identified by experiments.
文摘This paper presents a novel adaptive scheme for energy management in stand-alone hybrid power systems. The proposed management system is designed to manage the power flow between the hybrid power system and energy storage elements in order to satisfy the load requirements based on artificial neural network (ANN) and fuzzy logic controllers. The neural network controller is employed to achieve the maximum power point (MPP) for different types of photovoltaic (PV) panels. The advance fuzzy logic controller is developed to distribute the power among the hybrid system and to manage the charge and discharge current flow for performance optimization. The developed management system performance was assessed using a hybrid system comprised PV panels, wind turbine (WT), battery storage, and proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). To improve the generating performance of the PEMFC and prolong its life, stack temperature is controlled by a fuzzy logic controller. The dynamic behavior of the proposed model is examined under different operating conditions. Real-time measured parameters are used as inputs for the developed system. The proposed model and its control strategy offer a proper tool for optimizing hybrid power system performance, such as that used in smart-house applications.

文摘Conventional coordinated control strategies for DC bus voltage signal(DBS)in islanded DC microgrids(IDCMGs)struggle with coordinating multiple distributed generators(DGs)and cannot effectively incorporate state of charge(SOC)information of the energy storage system,thereby reducing the system flexibility.In this study,we propose an adaptive coordinated control strategy that employs a two-layer fuzzy neural network controller(FNNC)to adapt to varying operating conditions in an IDCMG with multiple PV and battery energy storage system(BESS)units.The first-layer FNNC generates optimal operating mode commands for each DG,thereby avoiding the requirement for complex operating modes based on SOC segmentation.An optimal switching sequence logic prioritizes the most appropriate units during mode transitions.The second-layer FNNC dynamically adjusts the droop power to overcome power distribution challenges among DG groups.This helps in preventing the PV power from exceeding the limits and mitigating the risk of BESS overcharging or over-discharging.The simulation results indicate that the proposed strategy enhances the coordinated operation of multi-DG IDCMGs,thereby ensuring the efficient and safe utilization of PV and BESS.

文摘Dividing wall batch distillation with middle vessel(DWBDM)is a new type of batch distillation column,with outstanding advantages of low capital cost,energy saving and flexible operation.However,temperature control of DWBDM process is challenging,since inherently dynamic and highly nonlinear,which make it difficult to give the controller reasonable set value or optimal temperature profile for temperature control scheme.To overcome this obstacle,this study proposes a new strategy to develop temperature control scheme for DWBDM combining neural network soft-sensor with fuzzy control.Dynamic model of DWBDM was firstly developed and numerically solved by Python,with three control schemes:composition control by PID and fuzzy control respectively,and temperature control by fuzzy control with neural network soft-sensor.For dynamic process,the neural networks with memory functions,such as RNN,LSTM and GRU,are used to handle with time-series data.The results from a case example show that the new control scheme can perform a good temperature control of DWBDM with the same or even better product purities as traditional PID or fuzzy control,and fuzzy control could reduce the effect of prediction error from neural network,indicating that it is a highly feasible and effective control approach for DWBDM,and could even be extended to other dynamic processes.
