A Real-Time and Closed-Loop Control Algorithm for Cascaded Multilevel Inverter Based on Artificial Neural Network by Libing Wang, Chengxiong Mao, Dan Wang, Jiming Lu, Junfeng Zhang, Xun Chen

“…In order to control the cascaded H-bridges (CHB) converter with staircase modulation strategy in a real-time manner, a real-time and closed-loop control algorithm based on artificial neural network (ANN) for three-phase CHB converter is proposed in this paper. It costs little computation time and memory. It has two steps. In the first step, hierarchical particle swarm optimizer with time-varying acceleration coefficient (HPSO-TVAC) algorithm is employed to minimize the total harmonic distortion (THD) and generate the optimal switching angles offline. …”

Anomalous coherence length in superconductors with quantum metric by Jin-Xin Hu, Shuai A. Chen, K. T. Law

“…Physically, the Cooper pair size of a superconductor cannot be squeezed down to a size smaller than ℓ qm which is a fundamental length scale determined by the quantum geometry of the wave functions. Lastly, we compute the quantum metric contributions for the family of superconducting moiré graphene materials, demonstrating the significant role played by quantum metric effects in these narrow-band superconductors.…”

The Relative Weight of Temporal Envelope Cues in Different Frequency Regions for Mandarin Sentence Recognition by Yang Guo, Yuanyuan Sun, Yanmei Feng, Yujun Zhang, Shankai Yin

“…Next, the relative contributions of the E information from the five frequency regions to sentence perception were computed using a least-squares approach. The results demonstrated that, for Mandarin Chinese, a tonal language, the temporal E cues of Frequency Region 1 (80–502 Hz) and Region 3 (1,022–1,913 Hz) contributed more to the intelligence of sentence recognition than other regions, particularly the region of 80–502 Hz, which contained fundamental frequency (F0) information.…”
