Abstract: Technology for operating an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communication system is disclosed herein that allows an UAV communication system to transition between modulation modes. In various implementations, a wireless radio of the UAV communication system operates in a dynamic modulation mode such that the wireless radio dynamically adjusts the modulation rate of a signal within a range of possible modulation rates. The wireless radio transitions to a fixed modulation mode, based at least on a current modulation rate of the signal reaching a low end of the range of possible modulation rates. When in the fixed modulation mode, the wireless radio holds the modulation rate at the low end of the range of possible modulation rates. The wireless radio returns to the dynamic modulation mode based on the quality of the signal.

Abstract: Gas turbines are one of leading sources for power generation with lower greenhouse gas emissions. However, due to environmental concerns, gas turbines are moving towards adopting greener fuels. The shift towards greener fuels comes with own set of challenges as performance of gas turbine at different operating points needs to be accurately predicted as experiments are very costly to perform. Existing arts perform their analysis at operating line and performance estimation at other operating points is not specified. Present application provides systems and methods for estimating performance of gas turbine accurately in wide operating region. The system first accurately estimates outlet conditions for each stage of compressor. The system then utilizes estimated outlet conditions to determine outlet conditions associated with other component of gas turbine.

Abstract: In applications such as adaptive learning of physics-based and data-driven models associated with industrial plants, the models are corrected periodically by taking into consideration the dynamic changes occurring in plant conditions and related data. However, accuracy of adaptive learning depends on accuracy of ground truth data being used as reference data. The disclosure herein generally relates to data preprocessing, and, more particularly, to a method and system for ground truth profile correction and instance selection. The system performs a ground truth profile correction for ground truth profiles having a Profile Deviation Index (PDI) value exceeding a threshold of distortion, to reduce the PDI value, and in turn reduce the distortion in the ground truth profiles. Further, the system performs a data instance selection to identify and remove outliers, and the data that remains after the data instance selection may be then used for applications such as model generation or retuning.

Abstract: Agglomeration process in agglomeration plants is quite sensitive to changes in input feed material characteristics. End-to-end optimization of the agglomerate process by combining all the units is difficult due to unique complexities and challenges associated with combining the individual process outputs. A method and system for optimizing the operation of an agglomeration plant has been provided. The system performs real time optimization on integrated wet agglomeration and thermal agglomeration process which subsequently increases the plant productivity and agglomerate quality and minimizes the operating cost and emissions from the plant. The optimization process involves various steps such as receiving data, pre-processing of data, prediction using physics-based and data-driven models of agglomeration plant, and optimization execution and configuration. The process also involves continuous monitoring of model performance and self-learning of the models in case of a performance drift.

Abstract: A computational therapeutic management system and associate method for providing personalised therapy management for a patient include a therapeutic analytics engine configured to build contextual-specific personalized physiology signature using multivariate data. The personalized physiology signature along with the drug-specific and individual-specific knowledge bases enables the system to evaluate and quantify the therapeutic and adverse effects of drugs on patients. Further, the system monitors patient's health condition, and predicts changes, and provides alarms and reports in a user interface. The clinical annotations by the caregiver/ clinician in the interface are considered as feedback to update the knowledge bases and personalized physiology signature.
