Abstract: This document describes systems and techniques for a current-limiting control strategy for single-loop droop-controlled grid-forming inverters. In aspects, a hysteresis module is configured to compare an output current detected across one or more transistors in an inverter controlled by the single-loop droop converter with a specified maximum current and to generate an overcurrent signal. The overcurrent signal presents a fault signal responsive to the output current exceeding the specified maximum current. A logic array is configured to logically combine gate control signals generated by the single-loop droop controller to selectively direct the one or more transistors to allow the output current to flow therethrough with the overcurrent signal to present modified gate control signals to the one or more transistors.

The housing is configured to removably engage the tourniquet to position the at least one sensor to monitor the at least one of deployment or operation of the tourniquet. The processor is configured to receive feedback from the at least one sensor, compare the feedback to at least one of deployment or operation parameters for the tourniquet, and generate a user report. The user communication module is configured to communicate the user report.

Abstract: Methods of reinforcement learning for a resource management agent. Responsive to generated actions, corresponding observations are received. Each observation comprises a transition in a state associated with an inventory and an associated reward in the form of revenues generated from perishable resource sales. A randomized batch of observations is periodically sampled according to a prioritized replay sampling algorithm. A probability distribution for selection of observations within the batch is progressively adapted. Each batch of observations is used to update weight parameters of a neural network that comprises an approximator of the resource management agent, such that when provided with an input inventory state and an input action, an output of the neural network more closely approximates a true value of generating the input action while in the input inventory state. The neural network may be used to select each generated action depending upon a corresponding state associated with the inventory.
