Abstract: A reliability evaluation method and system for a microgrid inverter IGBT based on segmented long short-term memory (LSTM) is disclosed, including steps as follows. An electrothermal coupling model is constructed to obtain real-time junction temperature data. The original LSTM algorithm is improved to obtain a segmented LSTM prediction network for the aging characteristics of the IGBT. The monitoring value of the IGBT aging parameter is used to perform segmented LSTM prediction to obtain the predicted aging process, and the threshold values of different aging stages are categorized. An aging correction is performed on the aging parameter of the electrothermal coupling model to ensure the accuracy of the junction temperature data. Rainflow-counting algorithm is used to calculate real-time thermal stress load distribution of the IGBT. The fatigue damage theory and the Lesit life prediction model are combined to calculate the real-time cumulative damage and predicted life of the IGBT.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for planning a shortest possible three-dimensional path for autonomous flying robots to traverse from one location to the other in a geographical region, including translating a three-dimensional (3D) environment, discretizing the 3D environment into a graph of many grid cells or nodes, employing a modified any-angle path planning algorithm to calculate non-uniform traversal cost of each grid cell and by averaging the total traversal costs along the path to shorten the corresponding computation time, whilst incorporating operational costs other than the traversal cost specific to the autonomous flying robots to be traversed. The shortest possible path found by the present method does not only consider the path length, but also takes different costs of traversing and operating the flying robots into account, which increases its feasibility and flexibility to be applied in a wide variety of situations and technological areas.

Abstract: Approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) searching is a fundamental problem in computer science with numerous applications in area such as machine learning and data mining. For typical graph-based ANN methods, the searching method is executed iteratively, and the execution dependency prohibits graphics processor unit (GPU)/GPU-type processor adaptations. Presented herein are embodiments of a novel framework that decouples the searching on graph methodology into stages, in order to parallel the performance-crucial distance computation. Furthermore, in one or more embodiments, to obtain better parallelism on GPU-type components, also disclosed are novel ANN-specific optimization methods that eliminate dynamic memory allocations and trade computations for less memory consumption. Embodiments were empirically compared against other methods, and the results confirm the effectiveness.
