Abstract Motor imbalance is a critical failure mode in rotating machinery, potentially causing severe equipment damage if undetected. Traditional vibration-based diagnostic methods rely on direct sensor contact, leading to installation challenges and measurement artifacts that can compromise accuracy. This study presents a novel radar-based framework for non-contact motor imbalance detection using 24 GHz continuous-wave radar. A dataset of 1802 experimental trials was sourced, covering four imbalance levels (0, 10, 20, 30 g) across varying motor speeds (500–1500 rpm) and load torques (0–3 Nm). Dual-channel in-phase and quadrature radar signals were captured at 10,000 samples per second… More >

Abstract Reliable detection of traffic signs and lights (TSLs) at long range and under varying illumination is essential for improving the perception and safety of autonomous driving systems (ADS). Traditional object detection models often exhibit significant performance degradation in real-world environments characterized by high dynamic range and complex lighting conditions. To overcome these limitations, this research presents FED-YOLOv10s, an improved and lightweight object detection framework based on You Only look Once v10 (YOLOv10). The proposed model integrates a C2f-Faster block derived from FasterNet to reduce parameters and floating-point operations, an Efficient Multiscale Attention (EMA) mechanism to More >

Abstract It remains difficult to automate the creation and validation of Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams due to unstructured requirements, limited automated pipelines, and the lack of reliable evaluation methods. This study introduces a cohesive architecture that amalgamates requirement development, UML synthesis, and multimodal validation. First, LLaMA-3.2-1B-Instruct was utilized to generate user-focused requirements. Then, DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B applies its reasoning skills to transform these requirements into PlantUML code. Using this dual-LLM pipeline, we constructed a synthetic dataset of 11,997 UML diagrams spanning six major diagram families. Rendering analysis showed that 89.5% of the generated diagrams compile correctly, while… More >

Abstract Mental-health risk detection seeks early signs of distress from social media posts and clinical transcripts to enable timely intervention before crises. When such risks go undetected, consequences can escalate to self-harm, long-term disability, reduced productivity, and significant societal and economic burden. Despite recent advances, detecting risk from online text remains challenging due to heterogeneous language, evolving semantics, and the sequential emergence of new datasets. Effective solutions must encode clinically meaningful cues, reason about causal relations, and adapt to new domains without forgetting prior knowledge. To address these challenges, this paper presents a Continual Neuro-Symbolic Graph… More >

Abstract In data communication, limited communication resources often lead to measurement bias, which adversely affects subsequent system estimation if not effectively handled. This paper proposes a novel bias calibration algorithm under communication constraints to achieve accurate system states of the interested system. An output-based event-triggered scheme is first employed to alleviate transmission burden. Accounting for the limited-communication-induced measurement bias, a novel bias calibration algorithm following the Kalman filtering line is developed to restrain the effect of the measurement bias on system estimation, thereby achieving accurate system state estimates. Subsequently, the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) implementation More >

Abstract We present a computer-modeling framework for photovoltaic (PV) source emulation that preserves the exact single-diode physics while enabling iteration-free, real-time evaluation. We derive two closed-form explicit solvers based on the Lambert W function: a voltage-driven V-Lambert solver for high-fidelity I–V computation and a resistance-driven R-Lambert solver designed for seamless integration in a closed-loop PV emulator. Unlike Taylor-linearized explicit models, our proposed formulation retains the exponential nonlinearity of the PV equations. It employs a numerically stable analytical evaluation that eliminates the need for lookup tables and root-finding, all while maintaining limited computational costs and a small… More >

In this study, we propose SPSALNet, a task-driven two-stage (macro–micro) architecture that restructures the SOD process around superpixel representations. In the proposed approach, a “split-and-enhance” principle, introduced to our knowledge for the first time in the SOD literature, hierarchically classifies superpixels and then applies targeted refinement only to ambiguous or error-prone regions. At the macro stage, the image is partitioned into content-adaptive superpixel regions, and each superpixel is represented by a high-dimensional region-level… More >

Abstract This study proposes a novel forecasting framework that simultaneously captures the strong periodicity and irregular meteorological fluctuations inherent in solar radiation time series. Existing approaches typically define inter-regional correlations using either simple correlation coefficients or distance-based measures when applying spatio-temporal graph neural networks (STGNNs). However, such definitions are prone to generating spurious correlations due to the dominance of periodic structures. To address this limitation, we adopt the Elastic-Band Transform (EBT) to decompose solar radiation into periodic and amplitude-modulated components, which are then modeled independently with separate graph neural networks. The periodic component, characterized by strong More >
