  • Patent number: 11783601
    Abstract: A driver fatigue detection method based on combining a pseudo-three-dimensional (P3D) convolutional neural network (CNN) and an attention mechanism includes: 1) extracting a frame sequence from a video of a driver and processing the frame sequence; 2) performing spatiotemporal feature learning through a P3D convolution module; 3) constructing a P3D-Attention module, and applying attention on channels and a feature map through the attention mechanism; and 4) replacing a 3D global average pooling layer with a 2D global average pooling layer to obtain more expressive features, and performing a classification through a Softmax classification layer. By analyzing the yawning behavior, blinking and head characteristic movements, the yawning behavior is well distinguished from the talking behavior, and it is possible to effectively distinguish between the three states of alert state, low vigilant state and drowsy state, thus improving the predictive performance of fatigue driving behaviors.

  • Patent number: 11239746
    Abstract: A two-stage converter, a method for starting the two-stage converter, an LLC converter, and an application system are provided. A controller of the LLC converter of the two-stage converter first controls a main circuit of the LLC converter to perform hiccup charging on a direct current bus of a later-stage converter at a preset interval, so that the direct current bus voltage of the later-stage converter gradually increases, until an auxiliary power supply of the later-stage converter starts to operate, to supply power to the controller of the later-stage converter. After the controller of the later-stage converter reports the detected direct current bus voltage, the controller of the LLC converter determines whether the output voltage of the LLC converter increases to a hiccup starting voltage. If so, the controller of the LLC converter controls the main circuit to operate in a hiccup voltage stabilization phase.

  • Publication number: 20210266748
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved KNN-based 6LoWPAN network intrusion detection method. The present invention selects quantifiable security features which can reflect a self-security state of network elements of a 6LoWPAN network for training, and establishes a 6LoWPAN network feature space. The present invention assigns the weights to the features and transfers zero points, to alleviate the bias caused by large and small impact factors and simplify calculation; realizes construction and update of a state data table of network elements by extracting the feature data of network elements in real time, thus forming a normal contour updated according to the real-time state of the network in the feature space of the 6LoWPAN network based on the clustering effect of a KNN algorithm; and the present invention improves the KNN algorithm and redefines a basis for judging the invasion, to meet the requirements for 6LoWPAN network intrusion detection.

  • Patent number: 10422883
    Abstract: A positioning method using height-constraint-based extended Kalman filter, suitable for a GNSS navigation and positioning system, comprises: obtaining an estimated state value of a current epoch by using an extended Kalman filter algorithm and according to an estimated state value of a previous epoch; constraining a positioning height of the current epoch by establishing a height constraint condition, so as to obtain an optimum estimated value of the current epoch and a corresponding mean square error, wherein the optimum estimated value satisfies the height constraint condition; further correcting the estimated state value by using a pseudorange obtained from the mean square error and a measured Doppler shift residual to obtain a final estimated state value of the current epoch, thus more accurately obtaining positioning information of a target to be positioned in the current epoch and enhancing the accuracy of GNSS navigation and positioning.
