Degradation State Recognition of Rolling Bearing Based on K-Means and CNN Algorithm by Qicai Zhou, Hehong Shen, Jiong Zhao, Xingchen Liu, Xiaolei Xiong

“…Then, the convolutional neural network recognition model is built, which takes the bearing vibration signals as input, and outputs the degradation state category. So, interference brought by human factors can be eliminated, and further, the bearing degradation can be grasped so as to make maintenance plan in time. …”

Testing Gaussianity, Homogeneity, and Isotropy with the Cosmic Microwave Background by L. Raul Abramo, Thiago S. Pereira

“…We focus both on isotropic estimators of nongaussianity as well as statistically anisotropic estimators of gaussianity, giving particular emphasis on their signatures and the enhanced “cosmic variances” that become increasingly important as our putative Universe becomes less symmetric. After reviewing the formalism behind some simple model-independent tests, we discuss how these tests can be applied to CMB data when searching for large-scale “anomalies”.…”

Sub-Synchronous Oscillation Analysis and Suppression in Hybrid Wind Farm by Yun Wang, Mingkun Liang, Feilong Xie, Chaoyang Long, Rong Yang

“…Through eigenvalue and participation factor analyses, this paper examines the effects of uncertainties in voltage control parameters, grid line series compensation, and the fluctuating power outputs of DFIGs and PMSGs on SSO behavior. A robust SSO suppression controller based on H_∞ theory is proposed, demonstrating a substantial reduction in harmonic distortion and improved settling time compared to conventional control strategies under varying disturbances. …”
