Improving Power Delivery of Grid-Connected Induction Machine Based Wind Generators Under Dynamic Conditions Using Feedforward Linear Neural Networks

IEEE Access, 2023
In the conventional grid-connected Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS), the generator side inverter is typically controlled via Field Oriented Control (FOC), while Voltage Oriented Control (VOC) controls the grid side inverter. However, robust operation

AFN: Adaptive Fusion Normalization via an Encoder-Decoder Framework

CoRR, 2023
The success of deep learning is inseparable from normalization layers. Researchers have proposed various normalization functions, and each of them has both advantages and disadvantages. In response, efforts have been made to design a unified normalization function that combines all normalization procedures and mitigates their weaknesses.

Shifting the paradigm: An Indigenous knowledge‐based stewardship plan to replenish boreal caribou in Athabasca Chipewyan and Mikisew Cree First Nations' homelands

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Indigenous Peoples in northern Alberta, including Dené and Cree of the Athabasca Chipewyan and Mikisew Cree First Nations (ACFN and MCFN), have been using Indigenous laws and stewardship principles to care for their homelands for thousands of years. Since ACFN and MCFN signed Treaty 8 with Canada in 1899, Alberta's land management policies and
