Huang, J. (author), Hong, C. (author), Liu, Yang (author), Chen, Lydia Y. (author), Roos, S. (author)Federated learning (FL) enables collaborative learning between parties, called clients, without sharing the original and potentially sensitive data. To ensure fast convergence in the presence of such heterogeneous clients, it is imperative to timely select clients who can effectively contribute to learning. A realistic but overlooked case of...conference paper 2023

Huang, B. (author)People make all kinds of choices every day, such as driving to work rather than taking public transport. Many of these choices have a direct impact on demand for products, services or public infrastructures. Understanding people’s choice behaviour can not only infer people’s preferences for certain products or services but more importantly make...doctoral thesis 2022

Wang, Sheng (author), Huang, Weidong (author), Liu, X. (author), Lin, P. (author)The influence of sulfur on the chemical, rheological, and aging resistance of terminal blend rubberized bitumen (TBRB) was studied. TB hybrid bitumen (TBHB) was prepared from with different sulfur contents (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 wt%) and TBRB prepared with neat bitumen and crumb rubbers at 20% content. TBHB binders were aged by rolling thin film...journal article 2022

Huang, J. (author), Stoter, J.E. (author), Peters, R.Y. (author), Nan, L. (author)We present a fully automatic approach for reconstructing compact 3D building models from large-scale airborne point clouds. A major challenge of urban reconstruction from airborne LiDAR point clouds lies in that the vertical walls are typically missing. Based on the observation that urban buildings typically consist of planar roofs connected...journal article 2022

Yao, Y. (author), Huang, Yunkai (author), Peng, Fei (author), Dong, J. (author), Zhu, Zichong (author)This article proposes a compensation method of position estimation error for high-speed surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motors based on robust inductance estimation. The proposed method relies on the variation of the estimated δ-axis back back-electromotive force when a small current is injected into the γ axis. The inductance...journal article 2022

Cao, Zhi (author), Huang, Yunkai (author), Peng, Fei (author), Dong, J. (author)Position sensing is one of the crucial parts of the active magnetic bearing (AMB) system. The printed circuit board (PCB) eddy current position sensor is a new type of position sensor for the AMB system, which makes a compact structure, high sensing quality, and is low cost. In this article, an improved driver circuit is proposed for this new...journal article 2022

Patel, R.G. (author), Marvuglia, Antonino (author), Baustert, Paul (author), Huang, Yilin (author), Shivakumar, Abhishek (author), Nikolic, I. (author), Verma, T. (author)Cities consume almost 80 percent of world’s energy and account for 60 percent of all the emissions of carbon dioxide and significant amounts of other greenhouse gases (GHG). The ongoing rapid urbanization will further increase GHG emissions of cities. The quantification of the environmental impact generated in cities is an important step to curb...journal article 2022
