Recently electronic tap-changer has received more attention due to its quick response, better performance and simpler maintenance compared to the mechanical tap-changer. This paper presents the capability of the distribution transformer equipped with an electronic tap-changer for improving power quality. At this end, the analytical computation for determining the compensating limit of electroni...

This paper demonstrates a first-order, linear power estimation model that uses performance counters to estimate run-time CPU and memory power consumption of the Intel PXA255 processor. Our model uses a set of power weights that map hardware performance counter values to processor and memory power consumption. Power weights are derived offline once per processor voltage and frequency configurati...

Fire parameter estimation is performed using data obtained quasi-simultaneously by the Hot Spot Recognition System (HSRS) on the experimental Bi-spectral InfraRed Detection (BIRD) satellite and the MODerate resolution Imaging Spectro-radiometer (MODIS) on EOS Terra. Compared with the higher spatial resolution BIRD data, MODIS can not detect small fires, which leads in some cases to an underesti...

Ordinary differential equations (ODE) are widely used for modeling in Systems Biology. As most commonly only some of the kinetic parameters are measurable or precisely known, parameter estimation techniques are applied to parametrize the model to experimental data. A main challenge for the parameter estimation is the complexity of the parameter space, especially its high dimensionality and loca...

Robustness is an important performance index of power system state estimation, which defined as the estimator’s capability to resist interference. However, improving robustness estimation often reduces accuracy. To solve this problem, paper proposes a method for generalized M-estimation optimized parameters based on sampling. Compared with traditional robust estimator, M-estimator projection st...
