    Shengqi Zhang, Bei Yuan, Jianfeng Zhao
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.25, No.4, pp. 745-753, 2019, DOI:10.31209/2019.100000078
    Abstract With the current trend of deregulation, more power exchange between GENCOs and DISCOs in different areas exists in the power system. To mitigate the unscheduled power exchange meets the common interests of GENCOs and DISCOs, and avoids the power over-loading on tie-lines. However, in the current control performance standards (CPS), frequency deviations have priority in the conventional automatic generation control (C-AGC). Thus, a storagebased tie-line control loop (STCL) on the basis of C-AGC (STCL-AGC) is proposed in this paper, which makes a better tradeoff in the recovery of the frequency deviations and the unscheduled power exchange. In STCL-AGC, utility-scaled battery… More >

    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.25, No.4, pp. 805-814, 2019, DOI:10.31209/2019.100000084
    Abstract Hyperspectral remote sensing, with its narrow band imaging, provides the potential for fine identification of ground objects, and has unique advantages in mineral detection. However, the image is nonlinear and the pure pixel is scarce, so using standard spectrum detection will lead to an increase of the number of false alarm and missed detection. The density peak algorithm performs well in high-dimensional space and data clustering with irregular category shape. This paper used the density peak clustering to determine the cluster centers of various categories of images, and took it as the target spectrum, and took the clustering results as… More >

    Abstract In this paper, a new model is proposed to predict the permeability of porous media. This model introduces the Euler-Poincaré Characteristic (Euler Number), a parameter that reflects the connectivity of porous media. Using fractal and percolation theory, we establish a permeability model as a function of critical radius, porosity and Euler number. In order to relate the result to the Euler number, we introduce the Connectivity Function to calculate the critical aperture in the percolation theory, then calculate the percolation threshold value, and establish the relationship between the percolation threshold and the Euler number.
