Zheng, Jingjing (author), Li, Kai (author), Mhaisen, N. (author), Ni, Wei (author), Tovar, Eduardo (author), Guizani, Mohsen (author)Federated learning (FL) is increasingly considered to circumvent the disclosure of private data in mobile edge computing (MEC) systems. Training with large data can enhance FL learning accuracy, which is associated with non-negligible energy use. Scheduled edge devices with small data save energy but decrease FL learning accuracy due to a...conference paper 2023

Zheng, X. (author)Large deformations in fluid-saturated geomaterials are central to numerous geotechnical applications, such as landslides and dam failures, pile installations, and underground excavations. An in-depth understanding of the soil's hydromechanical behaviour during large-deformation processes is essential for quantitative predictions about such...doctoral thesis 2022

Zheng, Y. (author), Shyrokau, B. (author), Keviczky, T. (author), Sakka, Monzer Al (author), Dhaens, Miguel (author)The benefits of automated driving can only be fully realized if the occupants are protected from motion sickness. Active suspensions hold the potential to raise the comfort level in automated passenger vehicles by enabling new functionalities in chassis control. One example is to actively lean the vehicle body toward the center of the corner...journal article 2022

Zheng, Y. (author), Nijhuis, S. (author), Bracken, G. (author)In the heart of the Pearl River Delta, the city of Guangzhou is fast-growing and prone to flooding. In history, people constructed canals based on natural waterways to deal with water problems. The canal system not only served as an important infrastructure but was also as the backbone of urban life. The city was built around its canals; they...journal article 2022

Zhou, H. (author), Chahine, I. (author), Zheng, Wei Xing (author), Pan, W. (author)This paper proposes a sparse Bayesian treatment of deep neural networks (DNNs) for system identification. Although DNNs show impressive approximation ability in various fields, several challenges still exist for system identification problems. First, DNNs are known to be too complex that they can easily overfit the training data. Second, the...journal article 2022
