A Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting System Assisted by A Piezoelectric Transducer Achieving 10-mV Cold-Startup and 82.7% Peak Efficiency

This article presents a 10mV-startup-voltage thermoelectric energy harvesting system, assisted by a piezoelectric generator (PEG) as a cold starter. It exploits the fact that when a thermoelectric energy harvesting system is implemented in a place where kinetic energy is also present, the PEG starter can provide a clock signal to start the...

Secure Logistic Regression for Vertical Federated Learning

Data island effectively blocks the practical application of machine learning. To meet this challenge, a new framework known as federated learning was created. It allows model training on a large amount of scattered data owned by different data providers. This article presents a parallel solution for computing logistic regression based on...
