Yuan, Guangchao (author), Singh, M.P. (author), Murukannaiah, P.K. (author)Geographical characteristics have been proven to be effective in improving the quality of point-of-interest (POI) recommendation. However, existing works on POI recommendation focus on cost (time or money) of travel for a user. An important geographical aspect that has not been studied adequately is the neighborhood effect, which captures a...journal article 2021

Jin, Zujin (author), Cheng, Gang (author), Pang, Y. (author), Xu, Shichang (author), Yuan, Dunpeng (author)During the processing of an optical mirror, the performance parameters of the bottom support system would affect the surface forming accuracy of the mirror. The traditional bottom support system has a large unadjustable support stiffness, which increases the difficulty of unloading the impact force generated by the grinding disc. In response to...journal article 2021

Tao, T. (author), Roy, Spandan (author), Yuan, Shuai (author), Baldi, S. (author)In recent years, heuristics for adaptive solutions to load frequency control (LFC) in power systems have been proposed that include adapting the LFC targets or adapting the participation factor for the resources. However, stability guarantees for these adaptation ideas are missing, especially in the presence of switching/evolving topologies...journal article 2021
