Federated edge learning with reconfigurable intelligent surface and its application in Internet of vehicles by Ping WANG, Zhiwei YANG, Heju LI

“…Aiming at the problem that it is difficult to achieve an optimal trade-off between wireless communication and model accuracy in FEEL training caused by the heterogeneity of wireless links and data distribution, a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) enabled federated edge learning system was proposed, which exploited the channel reconfigurability of RIS to adaptively manipulate the signal propagation environment, and utilized the over-the-air computation (Aircomp) to achieve fast model aggregation.Specifically, the convergence behavior of the FEEL algorithm under the influence of wireless channels and data heterogeneity was rigorously derived, and accordingly, an unified wireless resources optimization problem was constructed with the goal of minimizing the learning loss by jointly designing the transceiver design and the RIS phase shift.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme achieves substantial performance improvement compared against several baselines, and prove that RIS can play an important role in improving the accuracy of Aircomp enabled FEEL systems under data heterogeneity.Finally, the probability of applying it into Internet of vehicles is discussed.…”

DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF AN INNER BURR REMOVAL DEVICE IN LONGITUDINALLY WELDED PIPE by HOU YuLei, DONG Yu, LI LinJie, ZHOU YuLin

“…The application field of longitudinally welded pipe is expanding day by day, and its quality requirements are increasing.The inner burr removal device, as a key equipment to improve the quality of the inner surface of the longitudinally welded pipe, has gradually attracted the attention of manufacturers.Taking the high frequency longitudinally welded pipe with constant bottom surface as the research object, an inner burr removal device was proposed based on the cantilever arbor to improve the burr scraping quality of the welded pipe.According to the working principle and functional requirements of the inner burr removal device, the structure of the inner burr removal device was designed and the three-dimensional model was established; According to the actual production conditions, using the ANSYS software, the finite element model of the inner burr removal device under different extreme working conditions was established and simulation analysis was performed to ensure the rationality of the structural design.The inner burr removal device, which integrates lifting, rotating, knife lifting and other auxiliary movements, also has the function of online breaking the inner burr, avoiding falling off inner burrs to block the welded pipe, enriching the functions of the inner burr removal device and laying a foundation for product development.…”
