Battery applications, such as electric vehicles, electric propulsion ships, and energy storage systems, are developing rapidly, and battery management issues are gaining attention. In this application field, a battery system with a high capacity and high power in which numerous battery cells are connected in series and parallel is used. Therefore, research on a battery management system (BMS) to which various algorithms are applied for efficient use and safe operation of batteries is being conducted. In general, maintenance/replacement of multi-series/multiple parallel battery systems is only possible when there is no load current, or the entire system is shut down. However, if the circulating current generated by the voltage difference between the newly added battery and the existing battery pack is less than the allowable current of the system, the new battery can be connected while the system is running, which is called hot swapping. The circulating current generated during the hot-swap operation is determined by the battery’s state of charge (SOC), the parallel configuration of the battery system, temperature, aging, operating point, and differences in the load current. Therefore, since there is a limit to formulating a circulating current that changes in size according to these various conditions, this paper presents a circulating current estimation method, using an artificial neural network (ANN). The ANN model for estimating the hot-swap circulating current is designed for a 1S4P lithium battery pack system, consisting of one series and four parallel cells. The circulating current of the ANN model proposed in this paper is experimentally verified to be able to estimate the actual value within a 6% error range.

In order to overcome the poor robustness of traditional image registration algorithms in illuminating and solving the problem of low accuracy of a learning-based image homography matrix estimation algorithm, an image registration algorithm based on convolutional neural network (CNN) and local homography transformation is proposed. Firstly, to ensure the diversity of samples, a sample and label generation method based on moving direct linear transformation (MDLT) is designed. The generated samples and labels can effectively reflect the local characteristics of images and are suitable for training the CNN model with which multiple pairs of local matching points between two images to be registered can be calculated. Then, the local homography matrices between the two images are estimated by using the MDLT and finally the image registration can be realized. The experimental results show that the proposed image registration algorithm achieves higher accuracy than other commonly used algorithms such as the SIFT, ORB, ECC, and APAP algorithms, as well as another two learning-based algorithms, and it has good robustness for different types of illumination imaging.

In the underlay cognitive radio networks (CRNs), the power spectral density (PSD) maps play a foundational role in detecting the idle radio resources. However, it is hard to get a high-accurate PSD map estimation result because of the complicated radio environment. For this reason, we propose a novel convolutional neural network- (CNN-) based PSD map estimation algorithm named map reconstruction CNN (MRCNN). Using the CNN to estimate PSD maps for underlay CRNs has not been reported until now. First, on the basis of the proposed color mapping process, we transform the PSD map estimation task to the image reconstruction task. Then, we train the MRCNN to learn the radio environment characteristics from the training data, rather than making direct biased or imprecise wireless environment hypotheses as in the conventional methods. We utilize the extracted knowledge in the training process to reconstruct the PSD map images. As demonstrated in the simulations, the proposed MRCNN method has a better PSD map estimation performance than the conventional methods.

The estimation of human hand pose has become the basis for many vital applications where the user depends mainly on the hand pose as a system input. Virtual reality (VR) headset, shadow dexterous hand and in-air signature verification are a few examples of applications that require to track the hand movements in real-time. The state-of-the-art 3D hand pose estimation methods are based on the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). These methods are implemented on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) mainly due to their extensive computational requirements. However, GPUs are not suitable for the practical application scenarios, where the low power consumption is crucial. Furthermore, the difficulty of embedding a bulky GPU into a small device prevents the portability of such applications on mobile devices. The goal of this work is to provide an energy efficient solution for an existing depth camera based hand pose estimation algorithm. First, we compress the deep neural network model by applying the dynamic quantization techniques on different layers to achieve maximum compression without compromising accuracy. Afterwards, we design a custom hardware architecture. For our device we selected the FPGA as a target platform because FPGAs provide high energy efficiency and can be integrated in portable devices. Our solution implemented on Xilinx UltraScale+ MPSoC FPGA is 4.2× faster and 577.3× more energy efficient than the original implementation of the hand pose estimation algorithm on NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070.
