Finally, simulations are given to prove the usefulness of our developed filtering algorithm.This article investigates the problem of quantized fuzzy control for discrete-time switched nonlinear singularly perturbed systems, where the singularly perturbed parameter (SPP) is employed to represent the degree of separation between the fast and slow states. Taking a full account of features in such switched nonlinear systems, the persistent dwell-time switching rule, the technique of singular perturbation and the interval type-2 Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model are introduced. Then, by means of constructing SPP-dependent multiple Lyapunov-like functions, some sufficient conditions with the ability to ensure the stability and an expected H∞ performance of the closed-loop system are deduced. Afterward, through solving a convex optimization problem, the gains of the controller are obtained. Finally, the correctness of the proposed method and the effectiveness of the designed controller are demonstrated by an explained example.The finite-time synchronization problem is investigated for the master-slave complex-valued memristive neural networks in this article. A novel Lyapunov-function based finite-time stability criterion with impulsive effects is proposed and utilized to design the decentralized finite-time synchronization controller. Not only the settling time but also the attractive domain with respect to the impulsive gain and average impulsive interval, as well as initial values is derived according to the sufficient synchronization condition. Two examples are outlined to illustrate the validity of our hybrid control strategy.Power amplifier (PA) models, such as the neural network (NN) models and the multilayer NN models, have problems with high complexity. In this article, we first propose a novel behavior model for wideband PAs, using a real-valued time-delay convolutional NN (RVTDCNN). The input data of the model is sorted and arranged as a graph composed of the in-phase and quadrature (I/Q) components and envelope-dependent terms of current and past signals. Then, we created a predesigned filter using the convolutional layer to extract the basis functions required for the PA forward or reverse modeling. Finally, the generated rich basis functions are input into a simple, fully connected layer to build the model. Due to the weight sharing characteristics of the convolutional model's structure, the strong memory effect does not lead to a significant increase in the complexity of the model. Meanwhile, the extraction effect of the predesigned filter also reduces the training complexity of the model. The experimental results show that the performance of the RVTDCNN model is almost the same as the NN models and the multilayer NN models. Meanwhile, compared with the abovementioned models, the coefficient number and computational complexity of the RVTDCNN model are significantly reduced. This advantage is noticeable when the memory effects of the PA are increased by using wider signal bandwidths.In this article, we consider the remote state estimation for nonlinear dynamic systems with known linear dynamics and unknown nonlinear perturbations. The nonlinear dynamic plant is monitored by multiple distributed sensors over a random access wireless network with shared common radio channel. We focus on the communication strategy and remote state estimation algorithm design so as to achieve a remote state estimation stability subject to unknown nonlinearities in plant and various wireless impairments, such as multisensor interference, wireless fading, and additive channel noise. By exploiting the additive properties of the physical wireless channels, we propose a novel information fusion over-the-air mechanism to address the signal collision and interference among the sensors. Utilizing the partial knowledge on the linear dynamics of the plant, we also propose a novel recurrent neural network (RNN)-based remote state estimator aided by a virtual state estimation mean-square-error (MSE) process. We further propose a novel online training algorithm such that the RNN at the remote estimator can effectively learn the unknown plant nonlinearities. Using the Lyapunov drift analysis approach, we establish closed-form sufficient requirements on the communication resources needed to achieve almost sure stability of both state estimation and RNN online training in high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime. As a result, our proposed scheme is asymptomatic optimal for large SNR in the sense that both the plant state and the unknown plant nonlinearities can be perfectly recovered at the remote estimator. The proposed scheme is also compared with various baselines and we show that significant performance gains can be achieved.Currently, numerical optimization methods are used to solve distributed optimal power allocation (OPA) problems for islanded microgrid (MG) systems. Most of them are developed based on rigorous mathematical derivation. However, the complexity of such optimization algorithms inevitably creates a gap between theoretical analysis and real-time implementation. In order to bridge such a gap, in this article we provide a new distributed learning-based framework to solve the real-time OPA problem. Specifically, inspired by the human-thinking scheme, distributed deep neural networks (DNNs) together with a dynamic average consensus algorithm are first employed to obtain an approximate OPA solution in a distributed manner. Then a distributed balance generation and demand algorithm is designed to fine-tune it to obtain the final optimal feasible solution. In addition, it is theoretically proved that the proposed DNN can well approximate one existing OPA algorithm (Guo et al. 2018), where quantitative numbers of at most how many hidden layers and neurons are provided. Several experimental case studies show that our proposed distributed learning framework can achieve similar optimal results to those obtained by using typical existing distributed numerical optimization methods while it is superior in terms of simplicity and real-time capability.Existing transfer learning methods that focus on problems in stationary environments are not usually applicable to dynamic environments, where concept drift may occur. To the best of our knowledge, the concept drift-tolerant transfer learning (CDTL), whose major challenge is the need to adapt the target model and knowledge of source domains to the changing environments, has yet to be well explored in the literature. This article, therefore, proposes a hybrid ensemble approach to deal with the CDTL problem provided that data in the target domain are generated in a streaming chunk-by-chunk manner from nonstationary environments. NPS-2143 datasheet At each time step, a class-wise weighted ensemble is presented to adapt the model of target domains to new environments. It assigns a weight vector for each classifier generated from the previous data chunks to allow each class of the current data leveraging historical knowledge independently. Then, a domain-wise weighted ensemble is introduced to combine the source and target models to select useful knowledge of each domain.
