The paper proposes a Hybrid Deep Neural Network (HDNN) framework for remaining useful life (RUL) estimation for prognostic health management applications. The proposed HDNN framework is the first hybrid model designed for RUL estimation that integrates two deep learning architectures simultaneously…
The paper proposes a novel distributed, sampled-data, event-triggered algorithm with quantized information exchange for average consensus (Q-CEASE) in multi-agent/multi-sensor networks. Q-CEASE communicates quantized information with its neighbouring nodes only if a discretized event-triggering cond…
This paper proposes a robust distributed event-triggered approach for consensus in linear multi-agent systems (MAS) with uncertain network topologies. To achieve consensus, each agent transmits its information only when a certain event-triggering condition is fulfilled. The connection weights in the…
This paper proposes a distributed guaranteed-performance event-triggered average consensus (GP-ETAC) algorithm for multi-agent/sensor networks. The proposed GP-ETAC approach is distributed and event-triggered in the sense that the agents selectively limit their transmissions to local neighbourhoods…
Based on the theory of linear matrix inequalities (LMI), this paper proposes an event-based distributed consensus algorithm for linear multi-agent/sensor networks that are heterogeneous. The proposed scheme is event-based in the sense that each agent transmits its information to its neighbouring nod…
Ultrasound elastography involves imaging tissue while it undergoes deformation and inferring its mechanical properties from the deformation pattern. The initial deformation in the tissue is typically induced through an external mechanical force, for example, by exerting a slight pressure using an ul…
The paper proposes an on-line distributed implementation of the particle filter (DPF) for applications, where the sensing and consensus time scales are the same. We are motivated by state estimation problems in large, geographically-distributed agent/sensor networks, where bandwidth constraints limi…
The source localization problem for multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) radars was recently formulated by Yu et al. [7] in the compressive sensing (CS) framework. The resulting CS/MIMO radar achieves high resolution in joint direction and Doppler estimation, which is more pronounced with sparse d…
Recent developments in microgrids place strict constraints on the underlying state estimation technology, including the need for a dynamic and distributed approach. Since the problem is reminiscent of classical information fusion [2], the paper explores the application of a fusion-based reduced orde…
