According to news reporting fromQinhuangdao, People’s Republic of Chi na, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, “This article studiesthe modeling a nd tracking control problems for a class of towed unmanned fire fighting robots. Consideringthat no similar modeling results exist, we take the lead in buildin g a novel system model that takes intoconsideration both system uncertainties a nd external disturbances, including unknown friction factors anddrag force.”Financial support for this research came from National Natural Science Foundatio n of China (NSFC).The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Yanshan Universi ty, “Then, tocompensate for the adverse effects of system uncertainties and ext ernal disturbances, a novel robustcontrol algorithm is proposed, which utilizes adaptive control and scaling techniques. Moreover, innovativepredefined perfor mance functions are designed to ensure that tracking processes meet predefined t ransientand steady-state requirements. Unlike most of the existing works, our p redefined time performance functionhas the advantage that the convergence time and convergence accuracy can be arbitrarily changed. In theend, a novel robust adaptive control scheme with predefined time and precision tracking is designed usingthe backstepping recursive method. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, it is demonstrated that all signalsin the closed-loop system are ultimately bounde d, and both predefined transient and steady-state processes are never violated. To validate the effectiveness of this proposed control scheme, numerical simulat ionsand practical platform experiments have been conducted.”

According to newsoriginating from Waco, Texas, by News Rx correspondents, research stated, “In complex systems withmultiple variables monitored at high-frequency, variables are not only temporally autocorrelated, b ut theymay also be nonlinearly related or exhibit nonstationarity as the inputs or operation changes. One approachto handling such variables is to detrend the m prior to monitoring and then apply control charts that assumeindependence and stationarity to the residuals.”Financial supporters for this research include United States Department of Energ y (DOE), NationalScience Foundation PFI:BIC, National Science Foundation Engine ering Research Center program, NationalAlliance for Water Innovation (NAWI) - U .S.

According to news reporting originatingfrom Hefei, People’s Republic of Chi na, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, “This article presentsa human-in -the-loop cooperative control of a walking exoskeleton to provide assistance to the user andenhance human mobility. First, a dynamic mathematical model of the human-exoskeleton system is derived,and then, a human-in-the-loop cooperative c ontrol framework is proposed in two ways: separablecooperative control (SCC) an d interactive cooperative control (ICC), respectively.”Financial support for this research came from National Natural Science Foundatio n of China (NSFC).Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from the University of Scien ce and TechnologyChina, “The SCC introduces a space division of the human and t he exoskeleton, while the ICC allowsthe robot to perceive the human intention a nd follows human motor, thereby improving the collaborativeperformance. The ICC formulates the impedance connection between the human and the exoskeleton inth e divided orthogonal subspaces of walking, such that the robot is able to modify its position of centerof mass (COM) when its motor trajectory deviates the one of the human. In addition, a novel adaptationcontrol is proposed to deal with the unmodeled dynamics and trajectory tracking. Finally, to validate theeffecti veness of our proposed controller, a series of experiments are conducted in thre e adults in gait atdifferent speeds.”

According to news reporting originatingin Beijing, People’s Republic of China, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, “The acquisition ofmagnetic anomaly data is generally considered a process of information degradation, with its content significantlyimpacting subsequent tasks involving data processing, inversion, and interpretation. Traditionalinterpolation methods often rely on t he spatial distribution and sampling density of data, thus strugglingto handle complex nonlinear relationships effectively.”Financial support for this research came from National Natural Science Foundatio n of China (NSFC).The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Tsinghua University, “To address thesechallenges, this study employs deep learning algorithms for in terpolating magnetic anomaly data, aimingto enhance the resolution of magnetic data. Additionally, gravity data are incorporated as supplementaryinformation t o improve the quality of magnetic anomaly data interpolation. Similar to magneti c data,gravity data also exhibit a certain degree of spatial correlation, as a single geological source may produceanomalies in both gravity and magnetic resp onses simultaneously. Through the training and predictionof deep learning netwo rks, it is observed that the intelligent interpolation retains the subtle featur es ofmagnetic anomaly data in space while avoiding staircase-like erroneous ano malies generated by linear interpolation. Furthermore, gravity data assist in co nstraining the results of magnetic anomaly interpolation,enhancing their accura cy. Finally, the trained network is applied to measured data, with the input dat abeing downsampled.”
