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

The EHAS is developed by taking into consideration the nonlinearities of the system： the friction and the internal leakage. A variable load that simulates a realistic load in robotic excavator is taken as the trajectory reference. A method of control strategy that is implemented by employing a fuzzy logic controller （FLC） whose parameters are optimized using particle swarm optimization （PSO） is proposed. The scaling factors of the fuzzy inference system are tuned to obtain the optimal values which yield the best system performance. The simulation results show that the FLC is able to track the trajectory reference accurately for a range of values of orifice opening. Beyond that range, the orifice opening may introduce chattering, which the FLC alone is not sufficient to overcome. The PSO optimized FLC can reduce the chattering significantly. This result justifies the implementation of the proposed method in position control of EHAS.展开更多

Further, wind turbines in these locations are often subject to harsh operating conditions. These challenges mean there is a requirement for a high degree of maintenance. The data generated by monitoring systems can be used to obtain models of wind turbines operating under different conditions, and hence predict output signals based on known inputs. A model-based condition monitoring system can be implemented by comparing output data obtained from operational turbines with those predicted by the models, so as to detect changes that could be due to the presence of faults. This paper discusses several techniques for model-based condition monitoring systems: linear models, artificial neural networks, and state dependent parameter "pseudo" transfer functions.The models are identified using supervisory control and data acquisition(SCADA) data acquired from an operational wind firm. It is found that the multiple-input single-output state dependent parameter method outperforms both multivariate linear and artificial neural network-based approaches. Subsequently, state dependent parameter models are used to develop adaptive thresholds for critical output signals. In order to provide an early warning of a developing fault, it is necessary to interpret the amount by which the threshold is exceeded, together with the period of time over which this occurs. In this regard, a fuzzy logic-based inference system is proposed and demonstrated to be practically feasible.展开更多

文摘A major issue in radar quantitative precipitation estimation is the contamination of radar echoes by non-meteorological targets such as ground clutter,chaff,clear air echoes etc.In this study,a fuzzy logic algorithm for the identification of non-meteorological echoes is developed using optimized membership functions and weights for the dual-polarization radar located at Mount Sobaek.For selected precipitation and non-meteorological events,the characteristics of the precipitation and non-meteorological echo are derived by the probability density functions of five fuzzy parameters as functions of reflectivity values.The membership functions and weights are then determined by these density functions.Finally,the nonmeteorological echoes are identified by combining the membership functions and weights.The performance is qualitatively evaluated by long-term rain accumulation.The detection accuracy of the fuzzy logic algorithm is calculated using the probability of detection（POD）,false alarm rate（FAR）,and clutter–signal ratio（CSR）.In addition,the issues in using filtered dual-polarization data are alleviated.

文摘To deal with fault detection and diagnosis with incomplete model for dead reckoning system of mobile robot,an integrative framework of particle filter detection and fuzzy logic diagnosis was devised.Firstly,an adaptive fault space is designed for recognizing both known faults and unknown faults,in corresponding modes of modeled and model-free.Secondly,the particle filter is utilized to diagnose the modeled faults and detect model-free fault according to the low particle weight and reliability.Especially,the proposed fuzzy logic diagnosis can further analyze model-free modes and identify some soft faults in unknown fault space.The MORCS-1 experimental results show that the fuzzy diagnosis particle filter(FDPF) combinational framework improves fault detection and identification completeness.Specifically speaking,FDPF is feasible to diagnose the modeled faults in known space.Furthermore,the types of model-free soft faults can also be further identified and diagnosed in unknown fault space.

文摘The bucket wheel reclaimer(BWR) is a key piece of equipment which has been widely used for stacking and reclaiming bulk materials(i.e.iron ore and coal) in places such as ports,iron-steel plants,coal storage areas,and power stations from stockpiles.BWRs are very large in size,heavy in weight,expensive in price,and slow in motion.There are many challenges in attempting to automatically control their motion to accurately follow the required trajectories involving uncertain parameters from factors such as friction,turbulent wind,its own dynamics,and encoder limitations.As BWRs are always heavily engaged in production and cannot be spared very long for motion control studies and associated developments,a BWR model and simulation environment closely resembling real life conditions would be beneficial.The following research focused mainly on the implementation of fuzzy logic to a BWR motion control from an engineer's perspective.First,the modeling of a BWR including partially known parameters such as friction force and turbulence to the system was presented.This was then followed by the design of a fuzzy logic-based control built on a model-based control loop.The investigation provides engineers with an example of applying fuzzy logic in a model based approach to properly control the motion of a large BWR following defined trajectories,as well as to show possible ways of further improving the controller performance.The result indicates that fuzzy logic can be applied easily by engineers to overcome most motion control issues involving a large BWR.

文摘An artificial neural network(ANN) and a self-adjusting fuzzy logiccontroller(FLC) for modeling and control of gas tungsten arc welding(GTAW) process are presented.The discussion is mainly focused on the modeling and control of the weld pool depth with ANN and theintelligent control for weld seam tracking with FLC. The proposed neural network can produce highlycomplex nonlinear multi-variable model of the GTAW process that offers the accurate prediction ofwelding penetration depth. A self-adjusting fuzzy controller used for seam tracking adjusts thecontrol parameters on-line automatically according to the tracking errors so that the torch positioncan be controlled accurately.

文摘According to the randomness and uncertainty of information in the safety diagnosis of coal mine production system (CMPS), a novel safety diagnosis method was proposed by applying fuzzy logic inference method, which consists of safety diagnosis fuzzifier, defuzzifier, fuzzy rules base and inference engine. Through the safety diagnosis on coal mine roadway rail transportation system, the result shows that the unsafe probability is about 0.5 influenced by no speed reduction and over quick turnout on roadway, which is the most possible reason leading to the accident of roadway rail transportation system.
文摘Large-scale mobile social networks(MSNs)facilitate communications through mobile devices.The users of these networks can use mobile devices to access,share and distribute information.With the increasing number of users on social networks,the large volume of shared information and its propagation has created challenges for users.One of these challenges is whether users can trust one another.Trust can play an important role in users'decision making in social networks,so that,most people share their information based on their trust on others,or make decisions by relying on information provided by other users.However,considering the subjective and perceptive nature of the concept of trust,the mapping of trust in a computational model is one of the important issues in computing systeins of social networks.Moreover,in social networks,various communities may exist regarding the relationships between users.These connections and communities can affect trust among users and its complexity.In this paper,using user characteristics on social networks,a fuzzy clustering method is proposed and the trust between users in a cluster is computed using a computational model.Moreover,through the processes of combination,transition and aggregation of trust,the trust value is calculated between users who are not directly connected.Results show the high performance of the proposed trust inference method.

文摘It is common for wind turbines to be installed in remote locations on land or offshore, leading to difficulties in routine inspection and maintenance. Further, wind turbines in these locations are often subject to harsh operating conditions. These challenges mean there is a requirement for a high degree of maintenance. The data generated by monitoring systems can be used to obtain models of wind turbines operating under different conditions, and hence predict output signals based on known inputs. A model-based condition monitoring system can be implemented by comparing output data obtained from operational turbines with those predicted by the models, so as to detect changes that could be due to the presence of faults. This paper discusses several techniques for model-based condition monitoring systems: linear models, artificial neural networks, and state dependent parameter "pseudo" transfer functions.The models are identified using supervisory control and data acquisition(SCADA) data acquired from an operational wind firm. It is found that the multiple-input single-output state dependent parameter method outperforms both multivariate linear and artificial neural network-based approaches. Subsequently, state dependent parameter models are used to develop adaptive thresholds for critical output signals. In order to provide an early warning of a developing fault, it is necessary to interpret the amount by which the threshold is exceeded, together with the period of time over which this occurs. In this regard, a fuzzy logic-based inference system is proposed and demonstrated to be practically feasible.

文摘In several countries,the ageing population contour focuses on high healthcare costs and overloaded health care environments.Pervasive health care monitoring system can be a potential alternative,especially in the COVID-19 pandemic situation to help mitigate such problems by encouraging healthcare to transition from hospital-centred services to self-care,mobile care and home care.In this aspect,we propose a pervasive system to monitor the COVID’19 patient’s conditions within the hospital and outside by monitoring their medical and psychological situation.It facilitates better healthcare assistance,especially for COVID’19 patients and quarantined people.It identies the patient’s medical and psychological condition based on the current context and activities using a fuzzy context-aware reasoning engine based model.Fuzzy reasoning engine makes decisions using linguistic rules based on inference mechanisms that support the patient condition identication.Linguistics rules are framed based on the fuzzy set attributes belong to different context types.The fuzzy semantic rules are used to identify the relationship among the attributes,and the reasoning engine is used to ensure precise real-time context interpretation and current evaluation of the situation.Outcomes are measured using a fuzzy logic-based context reasoning system under simulation.The results indicate the usefulness of monitoring the COVID’19 patients based on the current context.

文摘The Hierarchical Structure Fuzzy Logic Control (HSFLC) strategies of torque distribute for Parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) in the mode of operation of the vehicle i. e. , acceleration, cruise, deceleration etc. have been studied. Using secondly developed the hybrid vehicle simulation tool ADVISOR, the dynamic model of PHEV has been set up by MATLAB/SIMULINK. The engine, motor as well as the battery characteristics have been studied. Simulation results show that the proposed hierarchical structured fuzzy logic control strategy is effective over the entire operating range of the vehicle in terms of fuel economy. Based on the analyses of the simulation results and driver’s experiences, a fuzzy controller is designed and developed to control the torque distribution. The controller is evaluated via hardware-in-the-loop simulator (HILS). The results show that controller verify its value.
文摘Fuzzy logic controller adopting unevenly-distributed membership function was presented with the purpose of enhancing performance of the temperature control precision and robustness for the chamber cooling system.Histogram equalization and noise detection were performed to modify the evenly-distributed membership functions of error and error change rate into unevenly-distributed membership functions.Then,the experimental results with evenly and unevenly distributed membership functions were compared under the same outside environment conditions.The experimental results show that the steady-state error is reduced around 40% and the noise disturbance is rejected successfully even though noise range is 60% of the control precision range.The control precision is improved by reducing the steady-state error and the robustness is enhanced by rejecting noise disturbance through the fuzzy logic controller with unevenly-distributed membership function.Moreover,the system energy efficiency and lifetime of electronic expansion valve(EEV) installed in chamber cooling system are improved by adopting the unevenly-distributed membership function.
