Increasing electric vehicle (EV) penetration in distribution networks necessitate EV charging coordination. This paper proposes a two-stage coordination mechanism that frees the system operator (DSO) from extra burdens of The first stage ensures total demand meets facility constraints, and second fair welfare allocation while maximizing via Nash-bargaining trading. A decentralized algorithm bas...

Small inter-class and large intra-class variations are the key challenges in fine-grained visual classification. Objects from different classes share visually similar structures, objects same class can have poses viewpoints. Therefore, proper extraction of discriminative local features (e.g., bird’s beak or car’s headlight) is crucial. Most recent successes on this problem based upon attention ...

Improving the reliability of power distribution systems is critically important for both utilities and customers. This calls an efficient service restoration module within a management system to support implementation self-healing smart grid networks. Although emerging technologies, including distributed generators (DGs) remote-controlled switches, enhance capability allow faster recovery, they...
