DRAF-Net: Dual-Branch Residual-Guided Multi-View Attention Fusion Network for Station-Level Numerical Weather Prediction Correction by Kaixin Chen, Jiaxin Chen, Mengqiu Xu, Ming Wu, Chuang Zhang

“…To address these challenges, this paper proposes the dual-branch residual-guided multi-view attention fusion network (DRAF-Net), a novel deep learning-based correction model. DRAF-Net introduces two key innovations: (1) a dual-branch residual structure that enhances the spatial sensitivity of deep high-dimensional features and improves output stability by connecting raw data and shallow features to deep features, respectively; and (2) a multi-view attention fusion mechanism that models spatiotemporal influences, temporal dynamics, and spatial associations, significantly improving the representation of complex dependencies. …”

A Design Procedure and Control Method for Improving Efficiency of a Family of Resonant Converters Over Wide Operating Conditions by Jasem Shahsevani, Reza Beiranvand

“…However, low efficiency under light-load or no-load conditions is one of their main challenges, which arises when their switching frequencies deviate significantly from their resonance frequencies during output voltage regulation, resulting in high circulating currents and switching harmonics values. Here, a novel design procedure and control method are proposed for the resonant converters, which have parallel components in their resonant tank circuits to address their light-load or no-load low-efficiency issues. …”
