These drones leverage the Internet of Things (IoT) to offer cross-location services for navigation. However, they are susceptible to security and privacy threats due to hardware and architectural issues. Although small drones hold promise for expansion in both civil and defense sectors, they have safety, security, and privacy threats. Addressing these challenges is crucial to maintaining the security and uninterrupted operations of these drones. In this regard, this study investigates security, and preservation concerning both the drones and Internet of Drones (IoD), emphasizing the significance of creating drone networks that are secure and can robustly withstand interceptions and intrusions. The proposed framework incorporates a weighted voting ensemble model comprising three convolutional neural network (CNN) models to enhance intrusion detection within the network. The employed CNNs are customized 1D models optimized to obtain better performance. The output from these CNNs is voted using a weighted criterion using a 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3 ratio for three CNNs, respectively. Experiments involve using multiple benchmark datasets, achieving an impressive accuracy of up to 99.89% on drone data. The proposed model shows promising results concerning precision, recall, and F1 as indicated by their obtained values of 99.92%, 99.98%, and 99.97%, respectively. Furthermore, cross-validation and performance comparison with existing works is also carried out. Findings indicate that the proposed approach offers a prospective solution for detecting security threats for aerial systems and satellite systems with high accuracy.展开更多

文摘Studying the coupling coordination development of new energy vehicles(NEVs)and the ecological environment in China is helpful in promoting the development of NEVs in the country and is of great significance in promoting high-quality development of new energy in China.This paper constructs an evaluation index system for the development of NEVs and the ecological environment.It uses game theory combining weighting model,particle swarm optimized projection tracking evaluation model,coupling coordination degree model,and machine learning algorithms to calculate and analyze the level of coupling coordination development of NEVs and the ecological environment in China from 2010 to 2021,and identifies the driving factors.The research results show that:(i)From 2010 to 2021,the development index of NEVs in China has steadily increased from 0.085 to 0.634,while the ecological environment level index significantly rose from 0.170 to 0.884,reflecting the continuous development of China in both NEVs and the ecological environment.(ii)From 2010 to 2012,the two systems—new energy vehicle(NEV)development and the ecological environment—were in a period of imbalance and decline.From 2013 to 2016,they underwent a transition period,and from 2017 to 2021,they entered a period of coordinated development showing a trend of benign and continuous improvement.By 2021,they reached a good level of coordination.(iii)Indicators such as the number of patents granted for NEVs,water consumption per unit of GDP,and energy consumption per unit of GDP are the main driving factors affecting the coupling coordination development of NEVs and the ecological environment in China.

文摘Considering the uncertainty of grid connection of electric vehicle charging stations and the uncertainty of new energy and residential electricity load,a spatio-temporal decoupling strategy of dynamic reactive power optimization based on clustering-local relaxation-correction is proposed.Firstly,the k-medoids clustering algorithm is used to divide the reduced power scene into periods.Then,the discrete variables and continuous variables are optimized in the same period of time.Finally,the number of input groups of parallel capacitor banks(CB)in multiple periods is fixed,and then the secondary static reactive power optimization correction is carried out by using the continuous reactive power output device based on the static reactive power compensation device(SVC),the new energy grid-connected inverter,and the electric vehicle charging station.According to the characteristics of the model,a hybrid optimization algorithm with a cross-feedback mechanism is used to solve different types of variables,and an improved artificial hummingbird algorithm based on tent chaotic mapping and adaptive mutation is proposed to improve the solution efficiency.The simulation results show that the proposed decoupling strategy can obtain satisfactory optimization resultswhile strictly guaranteeing the dynamic constraints of discrete variables,and the hybrid algorithm can effectively solve the mixed integer nonlinear optimization problem.

文摘Utilizing artificial intelligence(AI)to protect smart coastal cities has become a novel vision for scientific and industrial institutions.One of these AI technologies is using efficient and secure multi-environment Unmanned Vehicles(UVs)for anti-submarine attacks.This study’s contribution is the early detection of a submarine assault employing hybrid environment UVs that are controlled using swarm optimization and secure the information in between UVs using a decentralized cybersecurity strategy.The Dragonfly Algorithm is used for the orientation and clustering of the UVs in the optimization approach,and the Re-fragmentation strategy is used in the Network layer of the TCP/IP protocol as a cybersecurity solution.The research’s noteworthy findings demonstrate UVs’logistical capability to promptly detect the target and address the problem while securely keeping the drone’s geographical information.The results suggest that detecting the submarine early increases the likelihood of averting a collision.The dragonfly strategy of sensing the position of the submersible and aggregating around it demonstrates the reliability of swarm intelligence in increasing access efficiency.Securing communication between Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs)improves the level of secrecy necessary for the task.The swarm navigation is based on a peer-to-peer system,which allows each UAV to access information from its peers.This,in turn,helps the UAVs to determine the best route to take and to avoid collisions with other UAVs.The dragonfly strategy also increases the speed of the mission by minimizing the time spent finding the target.

文摘In Internet of Vehicles,VehicleInfrastructure-Cloud cooperation supports diverse intelligent driving and intelligent transportation applications.Federated Learning(FL)is the emerging computation paradigm to provide efficient and privacypreserving collaborative learning.However,in Io V environment,federated learning faces the challenges introduced by high mobility of vehicles and nonIndependently Identically Distribution(non-IID)of data.High mobility causes FL clients quit and the communication offline.The non-IID data leads to slow and unstable convergence of global model and single global model's weak adaptability to clients with different localization characteristics.Accordingly,this paper proposes a personalized aggregation strategy for hierarchical Federated Learning in Io V environment,including Fed SA(Special Asynchronous Federated Learning with Self-adaptive Aggregation)for low-level FL between a Road Side Unit(RSU)and the vehicles within its coverage,and Fed Att(Federated Learning with Attention Mechanism)for high-level FL between a cloud server and multiple RSUs.Agents self-adaptively obtain model aggregation weight based on Advantage Actor-Critic(A2C)algorithm.Experiments show the proposed strategy encourages vehicles to participate in global aggregation,and outperforms existing methods in training performance.

文摘Complex road conditions without signalized intersections when the traffic flow is nearly saturated result in high traffic congestion and accidents,reducing the traffic efficiency of intelligent vehicles.The complex road traffic environment of smart vehicles and other vehicles frequently experiences conflicting start and stop motion.The fine-grained scheduling of autonomous vehicles(AVs)at non-signalized intersections,which is a promising technique for exploring optimal driving paths for both assisted driving nowadays and driverless cars in the near future,has attracted significant attention owing to its high potential for improving road safety and traffic efficiency.Fine-grained scheduling primarily focuses on signalized intersection scenarios,as applying it directly to non-signalized intersections is challenging because each AV can move freely without traffic signal control.This may cause frequent driving collisions and low road traffic efficiency.Therefore,this study proposes a novel algorithm to address this issue.Our work focuses on the fine-grained scheduling of automated vehicles at non-signal intersections via dual reinforced training(FS-DRL).For FS-DRL,we first use a grid to describe the non-signalized intersection and propose a convolutional neural network(CNN)-based fast decision model that can rapidly yield a coarse-grained scheduling decision for each AV in a distributed manner.We then load these coarse-grained scheduling decisions onto a deep Q-learning network(DQN)for further evaluation.We use an adaptive learning rate to maximize the reward function and employ parameterεto tradeoff the fast speed of coarse-grained scheduling in the CNN and optimal fine-grained scheduling in the DQN.In addition,we prove that using this adaptive learning rate leads to a converged loss rate with an extremely small number of training loops.The simulation results show that compared with Dijkstra,RNN,and ant colony-based scheduling,FS-DRL yields a high accuracy of 96.5%on the sample,with improved performance of approximately 61.54%-85.37%in terms of the average conflict and traffic efficiency.

文摘As an essential element of intelligent trans-port systems,Internet of vehicles(IoV)has brought an immersive user experience recently.Meanwhile,the emergence of mobile edge computing(MEC)has enhanced the computational capability of the vehicle which reduces task processing latency and power con-sumption effectively and meets the quality of service requirements of vehicle users.However,there are still some problems in the MEC-assisted IoV system such as poor connectivity and high cost.Unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)equipped with MEC servers have become a promising approach for providing com-munication and computing services to mobile vehi-cles.Hence,in this article,an optimal framework for the UAV-assisted MEC system for IoV to minimize the average system cost is presented.Through joint consideration of computational offloading decisions and computational resource allocation,the optimiza-tion problem of our proposed architecture is presented to reduce system energy consumption and delay.For purpose of tackling this issue,the original non-convex issue is converted into a convex issue and the alternat-ing direction method of multipliers-based distributed optimal scheme is developed.The simulation results illustrate that the presented scheme can enhance the system performance dramatically with regard to other schemes,and the convergence of the proposed scheme is also significant.
文摘Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs)are increasingly recognized for their pivotal role in military and civilian applications,serving as essential technology for transmitting,evaluating,and gathering information.Unfortunately,this crucial process often occurs through unsecured wireless connections,exposing it to numerous cyber-physical attacks.Furthermore,UAVs’limited onboard computing resources make it challenging to perform complex cryptographic operations.The main aim of constructing a cryptographic scheme is to provide substantial security while reducing the computation and communication costs.This article introduces an efficient and secure cross-domain Authenticated Key Agreement(AKA)scheme that uses Hyperelliptic Curve Cryptography(HECC).The HECC,a modified version of ECC with a smaller key size of 80 bits,is well-suited for use in UAVs.In addition,the proposed scheme is employed in a cross-domain environment that integrates a Public Key Infrastructure(PKI)at the receiving end and a Certificateless Cryptosystem(CLC)at the sending end.Integrating CLC with PKI improves network security by restricting the exposure of encryption keys only to the message’s sender and subsequent receiver.A security study employing ROM and ROR models,together with a comparative performance analysis,shows that the proposed scheme outperforms comparable existing schemes in terms of both efficiency and security.

文摘Connected and autonomous vehicle formation(CAVF)technology is considerably important for improving transportation efficiency,optimizing traffic flow,and reduc-ing energy consumption.Despite the extensive research con-ducted on trajectory tracking control and other aspects of CAVF,the quality of the extant literature varies consider-ably,and research content remains scattered.To better pro-mote the sustainable and healthy development of the CAVF field,this paper employs the mapping knowledge domain(MKD)methodology to comprehensively review and visual-ize the current research status in this domain.Based on this review,research themes,hotspots,research challenges,and future development directions are proposed.The findings suggest that the research on CAVF can be categorized into three primary developmental stages.China and the United States are the primary countries conducting CAVF research.There is a positive correlation between economic develop-ment and the generation of scientific research outcomes.Re-search institutions are predominantly concentrated in univer-sities.The field exhibits significant interdisciplinary and inte-gration characteristics,forming key research personnel and teams.It is expected that future research will concentrate on topics such as deep learning,trajectory optimization,energy management strategy,mixed vehicle platoon,and other re-lated subjects.Research on cognition-driven intelligent for-mation decision-making mechanisms,resilience-oriented for-mation safety assurance systems,multiobjective collabora-tive formation optimization strategies,and digital twin-driven formation system validation platforms represents key future development directions.

文摘The high cost and low efficiency of full-scale vehicle experiments and numerical simulations limit the efficient development of armored vehicle occupant protection systems.The floor-occupant-seat local simulation model provides an alternative solution for quickly evaluating the performance of occupant protection systems.However,the error and rationality of the loading of the thin-walled floor in the local model cannot be ignored.This study proposed an equivalent loading method for the local model,which includes two parts:the dimensionality reduction method for acceleration matrix and the joint optimization framework for equivalent node coordinates.In the dimensionality reduction method,the dimension of the acceleration matrix was reduced based on the improved kernel principal component analysis(KPCA),and a dynamic variable bandwidth was introduced to address the limitation of failing to effectively measure the similarity between acceleration data in conventional KPCA.In addition,a least squares problem with forced displacement constraints was constructed to solve the correction matrix,thereby achieving the scale restoration process of the principal component acceleration matrix.The joint optimization framework for coordinates consists of the error assessment of response time histories(EARTH)and Bayesian optimization.In this framework,the local loading error of the equivalent acceleration matrix is taken as the Bayesian optimization objective,which is quantified and scored by EARTH.The expected improvement acquisition function was used to select the new set of the equivalent acceleration node coordinates for the self-updating optimization of the observation dataset and Gaussian process surrogate model.We reduced the dimension of the acceleration matrix from 2256 to 7,while retaining 91%of the information features.The comprehensive error score of occupant's lower limb response in the local model increased from 58.5%to 80.4%.The proposed equivalent loading method provides a solution for the rapid and reliable development of occupant protection systems.

文摘Electrification of roadways using dynamic wireless charging(DWC)technology can provide an effective solution to range anxiety,high battery costs and long charging times of electric vehicles(EVs).With DWC systems installed on roadways,they constitute a charging infrastructure or electrified roads(eRoads)that have many advantages.For instance,the large battery size of heavy-duty EVs can significantly be downsized due to charging-whiledriving.However,a high power demand of the DWC system,especially during traffic rush periods,could lead to voltage instability in the grid and undesirable power demand curves.In this paper,a model for the power demand is developed to predict the DWC system's power demand at various levels of EV penetration rate.The DWC power demand profile in the chosen 550 km section of a major highway in Canada is simulated.Solar photovoltaic(PV)panels are integrated with the DWC,and the integrated system is optimized to mitigate the peak power demand on the electrical grid.With solar panels of 55,000 kW rated capacity installed along roadsides in the study region,the peak power demand on the electrical grid is reduced from 167.5 to 136.1 MW or by 18.7%at an EV penetration rate of 30%under monthly average daily solar radiation in July.It is evidenced that solar PV power has effectively smoothed the peak power demand on the grid.Moreover,the locally generated renewable power could help ease off expensive grid upgrades and expansions for the eRoad.Also,the economic feasibility of the solar PV integrated DWC system is assessed using cost analysis metrics.
文摘Small-drone technology has opened a range of new applications for aerial transportation. These drones leverage the Internet of Things (IoT) to offer cross-location services for navigation. However, they are susceptible to security and privacy threats due to hardware and architectural issues. Although small drones hold promise for expansion in both civil and defense sectors, they have safety, security, and privacy threats. Addressing these challenges is crucial to maintaining the security and uninterrupted operations of these drones. In this regard, this study investigates security, and preservation concerning both the drones and Internet of Drones (IoD), emphasizing the significance of creating drone networks that are secure and can robustly withstand interceptions and intrusions. The proposed framework incorporates a weighted voting ensemble model comprising three convolutional neural network (CNN) models to enhance intrusion detection within the network. The employed CNNs are customized 1D models optimized to obtain better performance. The output from these CNNs is voted using a weighted criterion using a 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3 ratio for three CNNs, respectively. Experiments involve using multiple benchmark datasets, achieving an impressive accuracy of up to 99.89% on drone data. The proposed model shows promising results concerning precision, recall, and F1 as indicated by their obtained values of 99.92%, 99.98%, and 99.97%, respectively. Furthermore, cross-validation and performance comparison with existing works is also carried out. Findings indicate that the proposed approach offers a prospective solution for detecting security threats for aerial systems and satellite systems with high accuracy.

文摘The transportation and logistics sectors are major contributors to Greenhouse Gase(GHG)emissions.Carbon dioxide(CO_(2))from Light-Duty Vehicles(LDVs)is posing serious risks to air quality and public health.Understanding the extent of LDVs’impact on climate change and human well-being is crucial for informed decisionmaking and effective mitigation strategies.This study investigates the predictability of CO_(2)emissions from LDVs using a comprehensive dataset that includes vehicles from various manufacturers,their CO_(2)emission levels,and key influencing factors.Specifically,sixMachine Learning(ML)algorithms,ranging fromsimple linearmodels to complex non-linear models,were applied under identical conditions to ensure a fair comparison and their performance metrics were calculated.The obtained results showed a significant influence of variables such as engine size on CO_(2)emissions.Although the six algorithms have provided accurate forecasts,the Linear Regression(LR)model was found to be sufficient,achieving a Mean Absolute Percentage Error(MAPE)below 0.90%and a Coefficient of Determination(R2)exceeding 99.7%.These findings may contribute to a deeper understanding of LDVs’role in CO_(2)emissions and offer actionable insights for reducing their environmental impact.In fact,vehicle manufacturers can leverage these insights to target key emission-related factors,while policymakers and stakeholders in logistics and transportation can use the models to estimate the CO_(2)emissions of new vehicles before their market deployment or to project future emissions from current and expected LDV fleets.
