| 2025 | Dynamic Event-Triggered H ∞ Filtering for Fuzzy Markov Jump Systems Subject to Mismatched QuantizationabstractThis paper is dedicated to a dynamic event-triggeredH∞filtering method of fuzzy Markov jump systems via a mismatched quantization scheme. The system outputs are triggered by a dynamic event-triggered mechanism and then quantized via a mismatched quantizer before being sent to the remote filter. The dynamic triggering scheme with a special diagonal matrix structure threshold is built to reduce the network burden. The quantizer is constructed in a multi-channel paradigm with a time-varying mismatch degree. Then, the remote reduce-order filter is designed to be both fuzzy-rule and mode-dependent. By adopting Finsler's Lemma and the vertex separation method, sufficient conditions are derived in terms of form matrix inequalities. At last, the effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by a tunnel diode circuit. Yang Gu 0003, Mouquan Shen, Ju H. Park 0001, Qing-Guo Wang, Yang Yi 0001, Yonghui Sun |

| 2025 | Robust Forecasting-Aided State Estimation of Active Distribution Network With Multiple Distributed GeneratorsabstractThis paper develops a robust variational Bayesian unscented Kalman filter (RVBUKF) to track the state of active distribution networks with distributed energy resources. First, a spherical simplex-based unscented transform (UT) strategy is used to select Sigma points to reduce the computational burden. Subsequently, based on unscented Kalman filter and variational Bayesian theory, a variational update form of the covariance matrix is derived by using the inverse Wishart probability density function. To mitigate the impact of outliers, the Gaussian process regression model trained by historical data is used to synchronously predict observation values to replace abnormal measurements. Finally, simulation experiments are conducted on the distribution system containing distributed generations (DGs). The numerical results demonstrate that the developed method can accurately track state changes in uncertain scenarios while reducing the computational burden of UT by almost half.

| 2025 | Adaptive Prescribed-Time Tracking Control for Strict-Feedback Nonlinear Systems: A Novel Full Errors ApproachabstractIn this article, a novel full errors prescribed-time tracking control issue is studied for strict-feedback nonlinear systems with compounded perturbations and input constraints. The conventional error constraint methods that require adjusting 2ndesign parameters to ensure all errors enter the specified accuracy within a preassigned settling time greatly increase the complexity of controller design. By blending the modified shifting function and the barrier Lyapunov function, the presented control scheme only needs to adjustnparameters to achieve full errors prescribed-time convergence. Besides, the dead-zone input is divided into a linear term and an interference-like term. A disturbance observer is devised to estimate and compensate the compounded perturbations, including external perturbations, fuzzy approximation errors and interference-like term, which significantly enhances the accuracy of the feedback compensation mechanism. It is proved that all signals of the closed-loop system are bounded. Finally, the availability of the proposed control strategy is testified via a simulation example of an RLC circuit.

| 2024 | Two-Layer Asynchronous Control for a Class of Nonlinear Jump Systems: An Interval Segmentation ApproachabstractThis article proposes the two-layer asynchronous control scheme for a class of networked nonlinear jump systems. For the constructed system in a network environment, the data transmission may suffer from many restrictions, such as incomplete acceptable mode information and transition information, nonlinearity of system and inadequate bandwidth resources, etc. Then, the two-layer asynchronous controller is developed to stabilize the plant constructed by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy method and semi-Markov theory (SMT). Herein, the hidden semi-Markov process with time-varying emission probability is introduced to establish the relation between the system modes and the controller modes, in which the interval segmentation method is presented to deal with this time-varying probability. Compared with some published results, this method can make full use of the transition rate information, which may lead to the reduction of conservatism in the proposed asynchronous control design. At the same time, the limited bandwidth problem in the communication channel is addressed by introducing the bilateral quantization strategy, and the new sufficient conditions are derived on the stochastic stability of the nonlinear jump system with/without incomplete transition and sojourn-time information. Finally, the numerical simulation examples about DC motor illustrate the effectiveness and the feasibility of the proposed approach.

| 2023 | Iterative Learning Control of Constrained Systems With Varying Trial Lengths Under Alignment ConditionabstractThis brief is concerned with iterative learning control (ILC) of constrained multi-input multi-output (MIMO) nonlinear systems under the state alignment condition with varying trial lengths. A modified reference trajectory is constructed to meet the alignment condition by adjusting the reference trajectory to be spatially closed. Resorting to the barrier composite energy function (BCEF) approach, an adaptive ILC scheme is built to guarantee the bounded convergence of the resultant closed-loop system. Illustrative examples are presented to verify the validity of the proposed iteration scheme. Mouquan Shen, Xingzheng Wu, Ju H. Park 0001, Yang Yi 0001, Yonghui Sun |

| 2022 | Guaranteed Cost Control for Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Semi-Markov Switching Systems Within a Finite-Time IntervalabstractThis article focuses on the finite-time guaranteed cost (FTGC) control problem for interval type-2 (IT2) fuzzy semi-Markov switching systems (S-MSSs) with additive disturbances. Based on the IT2 fuzzy S-MSSs and the state feedback control method, a novel IT2 mode-dependent fuzzy guaranteed cost (GC) controller is developed under the mismatched membership functions. Then, some new sufficient conditions are given to ensure that IT2 fuzzy S-MSSs are finite-time (FT) stochastically stable based on the designed IT2 mode-dependent fuzzy GC controller. Furthermore, the transition rate boundary condition is relaxed, and a new incomplete transition rate boundary model is constructed to reflect the transition rate information. For both the incomplete transition rate boundaries and the actuator fault phenomenon, the improved stability criteria are provided to stabilize the IT2 fuzzy S-MSSs within an FT interval and determine the gains of the IT2 mode-dependent fuzzy GC controller, resulting in a much greater design flexibility. Distinct from the existing results, the presented FTGC control scheme is more suitable for many practical systems because the IT2 fuzzy S-MSS model, which is more general compared with the traditional fuzzy system and S-MSSs, is considered. Finally, three illustrative examples are offered to explain the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed FTGC control approach.

| 2022 | Arbitrary-Oriented Detection of Insulators in Thermal Imagery via Rotation Region NetworkabstractThe precise location of insulators in infrared images is of great significance for insulator condition monitoring and fault diagnosis. Due to the characteristics of insulators themselves and the use of handheld infrared cameras, insulators usually appear in infrared images with different aspect ratios and main axis orientations. Therefore, it is very important and necessary to make full use of the prior knowledge of the insulator itself to accurately locate it. However, most of the existing methods use axial horizontal detection boxes to detect insulators, which cannot take into account the characteristics of the insulator well. When there are large overlapping areas of two horizontal detection boxes, the nonmaximum suppression algorithm may lead to missed detection of the object. To further improve the accuracy of the detection algorithm, this article makes full use of the prior features carried by the insulator itself, and optimizes faster region-based convolutional neural networks (R-CNN) from five aspects: rectangular box representation, feature extraction, candidate box generation, anchor design, and feature alignment. An oriented detection model for infrared images of insulators is constructed. Comparative experiments with a variety of mainstream detection methods were carried out on the constructed infrared dataset. The results show that the proposed method is superior to other models in detection accuracy. When the intersection and union ratio is 0.5, the average precision reaches 95.08%. In addition, it can also effectively predict the shape and angle information of insulators in complex scenes, laying a beneficial foundation for subsequent diagnosis automation tasks.

| 2022 | Reduced-Order Fault Detection Filter Design for Fuzzy Semi-Markov Jump Systems With Partly Unknown Transition RatesabstractThis article deals with the fault detection problem for a class of Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy semi-Markov jump systems (FSMJSs) with partly unknown transition rates (PUTRs) subject to output quantization by designing a reduced-order filter. First, a more general PUTRs model is constructed to describe the situation that the information of some elements is completely unknown, where this model is affected simultaneously by PU information and time-varying parameter compared with the traditional PUTRs model. Second, we take full advantage of the reduced-order filter to address the fault detection problem for FSMJSs, in which the stochastic failure phenomenon is injected into the reduced-order filter. Besides, the logarithmic quantizer is employed to tackle the limited bandwidth problem in a communication channel. Consequently, the new sufficient conditions are developed based on the Lyapunov theory to obtain the desired reduced-order filter. Simulation results with respect to the tunnel diode circuit are provided to demonstrate the usefulness and availability of the established theoretical results.

| 2021 | Containment Control of Semi-Markovian Multiagent Systems With Switching TopologiesabstractThis article is concerned with the problem of the containment control with respect to continuous-time semi-Markovian multiagent systems with semi-Markovian switching topologies. Two kinds of classical control schemes, which are dynamic containment control and static containment control schemes, are utilized to address the proposed synthesis problem. Based on the linear matrix inequality (LMI) method, the dynamic containment controller and static containment controller are designed to plunge into the studied semi-Markovian multiagent systems, respectively. Moreover, the random switching topologies with the semi-Markovian process, the partly unknown transition rates, and the generally uncertain transition rates are taken into account, which can be applicable to more practical situations. Finally, the simulation results are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed theoretical results. Hongjing Liang, Linchuang Zhang, Yonghui Sun, Tingwen Huang |

| 2021 | Power Compensation of Network Losses in a Microgrid With BESS by Distributed Consensus AlgorithmabstractIn this article, by using distributed consensus algorithm, the power compensation problem of network losses in a microgrid is considered with battery energy storage systems (BESSs). At first, the battery storage unit (BSU) is assembled at each node to maintain the power supply demand balance of the microgrid, then the power constraint is considered, which demands each BSU must run between its upper and lower bounds, otherwise, the upper or lower bounds will be used to replace the real power of the BSU. In order to keep the power balance of microgrid when network losses exist, a novel distributed consensus algorithm is proposed to compensate the missing power through the discharging process of BSUs, and the state of charge (SOC) of BESS is also considered. Besides, the case of battery faults is also considered, where the minimum layout point constraint is presented to ensure the completely compensation of the whole transmission losses. Finally, the test results of IEEE 14-bus and IEEE 57-bus microgrid systems are provided to verify the effectiveness and validity of the proposed method, respectively.

| 2021 | Adaptive Event-Triggered Fault Detection Scheme for Semi-Markovian Jump Systems With Output QuantizationabstractThis paper examines the adaptive event-triggered fault detection problem of semi-Markovian jump systems (S-MJSs) with output quantization. First, we develop an adaptive event-triggered scheme for S-MJSs that is more effective than conventional event-triggered strategy for decreasing network transmission information. Meanwhile, we design a new adaptive law that can dynamically adjust the event-triggered threshold. Second, we consider output signal quantization and transmission delay in the proposed fault detection scheme. Moreover, we establish novel sufficient conditions for the stochastic stability in the proposed fault detection scheme with an H∞performance with the help of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, we provide simulation results to demonstrate the usefulness of the developed theoretical results. Linchuang Zhang, Hongjing Liang, Yonghui Sun, Choon Ki Ahn |

| 2020 | Fault Detection for Fuzzy Semi-Markov Jump Systems Based on Interval Type-2 Fuzzy ApproachabstractThis article studies the fault detection problem for continuous-time fuzzy semi-Markov jump systems (FSMJSs) by employing an interval type-2 (IT2) fuzzy approach. First, the continuous-time FSMJSs model is designed and the parameter uncertainty is addressed by the IT2 fuzzy approach, where the characteristic of sensor saturation is taken into account in the control system. Second, the IT2 fuzzy semi-Markov mode-dependent filter is constructed, which is employed to deal with the fault detection problem. Then, by using the Lyapunov theory, it can be guaranteed that the constructed fault detection model based on this filter and IT2 FSMJSs is stochastically stable with H∞performance. Moreover, the quantization strategy is applied to the fault detection plant to dispose of the problem of limited network bandwidth. Compared with the existing literature, the differences mainly lie in two aspects, one is that the IT2 fuzzy method is utilized for FSMJSs to tackle the parameter uncertainty of system, and the other is to detect the fault signal of IT2 FSMJSs by using the fault detection system that is constructed based on the IT2 fuzzy semi-Markov mode-dependent filter and IT2 FSMJSs. Finally, two simulation examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness and the usefulness of the proposed theoretical method. Linchuang Zhang, Hak-Keung Lam, Yonghui Sun, Hongjing Liang |

| 2019 | Power system dynamic state estimation considering correlation of measurement error from PMU and SCADAabstractSummary It is well known that measurements from phasor measurement unit (PMU) or supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) are not generally independent. Since the correlation of measurement error is a very representative feature of the actual measurement system, traditional assumptions on error independency are not adequate. In this paper, taking the correlation of measurement error of both PMU and SCADA measurements into consideration, a novel correlated extended Kalman filter (CEKF) is proposed. The actual measurement configurations are analyzed with the consideration of measurement error transfer characteristics. Then, the modified measurement error covariance matrix is calculated by using the point estimation method, which will replace the traditional diagonal variance matrix. At last, IEEE 14‐bus system and 57‐bus system are provided to illustrate the effectiveness and superiority of the method, respectively. Zigang Lu, Zhinong Wei, Yonghui Sun |
