Autore/i: Cavanini, L.; Ciabattoni, L.; Ferracuti, F.; Marchegiani, E.; Monteriu, A.
Classificazione: 1 Contributo su Rivista
Abstract: The performances of energy management systems or electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles are highly dependent on the forecast of future driver torque/power request sequence that affects vehicle efficiency and economy. Since the behaviour of the driver is challenging to model/predict by first-principles models, modern artificial intelligence algorithms would represent feasible methods for approaching this problem in real-world automotive systems. This work provides a comparative study and analysis of performances of different data-driven torque prediction strategies. The studied and compared torque demand prediction techniques are exponentially varying model, linear regression, shallow and deep neural networks, and least square support vector machine-based approaches. The prediction performance and computational cost of these techniques are evaluated and reported, and the possibility of exploiting these techniques in real-world scenarios is also discussed.

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON CONSUMER ELECTRONICS
Autore/i: Pepa, L.; Sabatelli, A.; Ciabattoni, L.; Monteriu', A.; Lamberti, F.; Morra, L.
Classificazione: 1 Contributo su Rivista
Abstract: Detecting stress in computer users, while technically challenging, is of the utmost importance in the workplace, especially now that remote working scenarios are becoming ubiquitous. In this context, cost-effective, subject-independent systems are needed that can be embedded in consumer devices and classify users' stress in a reliable and unobtrusive fashion. Leveraging keyboard and mouse dynamics is particularly appealing in this context as it exploits readily available sensors. However, available studies are mostly performed in laboratory conditions, and there is a lack of on-field investigations in closer-to-real-world settings. In this study, keyboard and mouse data from 62 volunteers were experimentally collected in-the-wild using a purpose-built Web application, designed to induce stress by asking each subject to perform 8 computer tasks under different stressful conditions. The application of Multiple Instance Learning (MIL) to Random Forest (RF) classification allowed the devised system to successfully distinguish 3 stress-level classes from keyboard (76% accuracy) and mouse (63% accuracy) data. Classifiers were further evaluated via confusion matrix, precision, recall, and F1-score.

ENERGIES
Autore/i: Ciabattoni, L.; Cardarelli, S.; Di Somma, M.; Graditi, G.; Comodi, G.
Classificazione: 1 Contributo su Rivista
Abstract: Recently, due to the growth of the electric vehicle (EV) market, the investigation of grid-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-grid strategies has become a priority in both the electric mobility and distribution grid research areas. However, there is still a lack of large-scale data sets to test and deploy energy management strategies. In this paper, a fully customizable EV population simulator is presented as an attempt to fill this gap. The proposed tool is designed as a web simulator as well as a Matlab/Simulink block, in order to facilitate its integration in different projects and applications. It provides individual and aggregated charge, discharge and plugin/out event data for a population of EVs, considering both home and public charging stations. The population is generated on the basis of statistical data (which can be fully customized) including commuting distances, vehicle models, traffic and social behavior of the owners. A peak-shaving case study is finally proposed to show the potential of the simulator.

Cross-domain classification of physical activity intensity: An eda-based approach validated by wrist-measured acceleration and physiological data
ELECTRONICS
Autore/i: Poli, A.; Gabrielli, V.; Ciabattoni, L.; Spinsante, S.
Classificazione: 1 Contributo su Rivista
Abstract: Performing regular physical activity positively affects individuals’ quality of life in both the short-and long-term and also contributes to the prevention of chronic diseases. However, exerted effort is subjectively perceived from different individuals. Therefore, this work explores an out-of-laboratory approach using a wrist-worn device to classify the perceived intensity of physical effort based on quantitative measured data. First, the exerted intensity is classified by two machine learning algorithms, namely the Support Vector Machine and the Bagged Tree, fed with features computed on heart-related parameters, skin temperature, and wrist acceleration. Then, the outcomes of the classification are exploited to validate the use of the Electrodermal Activity signal alone to rate the perceived effort. The results show that the Support Vector Machine algorithm applied on physiological and acceleration data effectively predicted the relative physical activity intensities, while the Bagged Tree performed best when the Electrodermal Activity data were the only data used.

Classificazione: 2 Contributo in Volume
Abstract: The progressive population ageing increases the participation of autonomous Elderly to the community life and their presence in public buildings. Such complex spaces are generally characterized by high occupants’ density, with different users’ types (including elderly) that additionally own a scarce familiarity with the emergency layout. Emergency safety levels (i.e.: fire) are significantly affected by man-environment interactions, especially for the hosted autonomous Elderly. Here, they tend to choose well-known paths, while group behaviours can provoke overcrowding and, hence, an increasing of the evacuation time. Cognitive Buildings can solve this issue, because they can suggest to people how to behave in relation to the monitored surrounding conditions. This study proposes a Cognitive Wayfinding System (Co-WayS) to be applied in such scenarios, with a low impact level. Co-Ways is composed by: individuals’ badges for their wi-fi tracking; building components including wi-fi tracking system and electrically-illumined signs (to dynamically address correct paths to evacuees); central processing unit to solve a density-based guidance algorithm for sign activation. Co-WaysS addresses the egress paths depending on monitored queueing conditions. A first validation in a significant public building is performed through egress drills. When using Co-WayS, the evacuation time decreases (−28%) while correct path choices (+17%) and individuals’ sign confidence (+58%) increases, with respect to standard signage.

Classificazione: 2 Contributo in Volume
Abstract: Assistive robots operate in complex environments and in presence of human beings, as such they are influenced by several factors which may lead to undesired outcomes: wrong sensor readings, unexpected environmental conditions or algorithmic errors represent just few examples. When the safety of the user must be guaranteed, a possible solution is to rely on a human-in-the-loop approach, e.g. to monitor if the robot performs a wrong action or environmental conditions affect safety during the interaction, and provide a feedback accordingly. The proposed work presents a human supervised smart wheelchair, i.e. an electric powered wheelchair with semiautonomous navigation capabilities of elaborating a path planning, whose user is equipped with a Brain Computer Interface (BCI) to provide safety feedbacks. During the wheelchair navigation towards a desired destination in an indoor scenario, possible problems (e.g. obstacles) along the trajectory cause the generation of error-related potentials signals (ErrPs) when noticed by the user. These signals are captured by the interface and are used to provide a feedback to the navigation task, in order to preserve safety and avoiding possible navigation issues modifying the trajectory planning.

AI-Powered Home Electrical Appliances as Enabler of Demand-Side Flexibility
IEEE CONSUMER ELECTRONICS MAGAZINE
Autore/i: Ciabattoni, L.; Comodi, G.; Ferracuti, F.; Foresi, G.
Classificazione: 1 Contributo su Rivista
Abstract: In the digitalization era, the increasing number of connected appliances and the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) enabled a new realm of possibilities in the residential energy sector, including the chance for a consumer to play an active role in flexibility programs. We talk about demand-side flexibility (DSF) when a consumer adapts his/her energy consumption behavior in response to variable energy prices or market incentives. The procedure depends on a two-way communication between an energy supplier and a customer, and his/her willingness to act on the electricity consumption. The success of the different DSF approaches is strongly related to the estimation of appliance usage patterns and AI techniques represent a viable solution.

Abstract: Recently, due to the increment of electric vehicles (EVs), the investigation of vehicle-to-grid paradigm strategies has become a key concern in both the electric mobility and distribution grid research areas. Indeed each EV can be seen as a distributed energy storage, thus giving to each customer a potential active role in the energy distribution scenario. However, there is still a lack of large scale data (often location dependant) to test and deploy energy management strategies for vehicle-to grid services. In this paper, a scalable EVs population simulator is presented as an attempt to fill this gap. The proposed tool provides individual and aggregated charge, discharge and plugin/-out events data of a custom geographically defined population of EVs, considering both home and public charging stations. The population is generated on the basis of statistical data (which can be obtained by data driven approaches or a priori assumptions) including commuting distances, vehicles models, traffic and social behavior of the owners.

Abstract: Today, the improvement of the product value in consumer goods, such as new services to increase the positive customer experience, is the subject of many research activities. In a context where the product complexity becomes ever greater and the product life-cycle is always shorter, the use of intelligent tools for supporting all phases of the product life-cycle is very important. One of the aspects that is taking interest is to support the consumer in fault management. This analysis are well-known practices in the industrial, automotive fields, etc. but less used for consumer electronics. This paper analizes a Cloud service based on a Machine Learning (ML) approach used to provide fault detection capabilities to household appliances equipped with electric motors and compare the results with on premise ML algorithms provided research tools. The purpose of this paper is to perform a preliminary comparison of ML algorithm performances provided by two software, namely Microsoft Azure (cloud solution) and MATLAB (on premise solution), on a study case. In detail, the vibration data of an asynchronous motor installed in an oven extractor hood for commercial restaurant kitchen have been analyzed. To this end, two classification algorithms have been selected to implement fault diagnosis techniques.

Classificazione: 1 Contributo su Rivista
Abstract: Gait dysfunctions are pathognomonic, progressive and, generally, continuous in Parkinson’s Disease (PD). The Freezing of Gait (FoG) is an episodic gait disorder involving up to 70% of people with PD, within 10 years of clinical onset, and associated with an increased risk for falls and immobility, which in turn, contributes to greater disability. Automatic and objective monitoring of FoG may help clinicians to understand and treat this phenomenon. In this work, a smartphone app for real-time FoG detection is presented and tested both in a laboratory setting and at patients’ home. The app implements a novel fuzzy logic algorithm that uses important spatio-temporal parameters of gait and is built according to clinical knowledge about FoG. The app includes a gait detection function and the evaluation of two important clinical statistics, i.e. FoG time and FoG number. The app FoG detection performance was assessed against clinicians evaluation and compared with the Moore-Bachlin FoG detection algorithm through ROC analysis, the calculation of confusion matrix, and FoG hit rate. The proposed algorithm achieved better results with respect to the Moore-Bachlin algorithm. Home reports were compared with respect to the FoG Questionnaire and laboratory reports; results indicated significant correlations for both FoG time and FoG number. The results confirm the reliability and accuracy of this app for FoG detection, supporting its wide use for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

Managing plug-in electric vehicles in eco-environmental operation optimization of local multi-energy systems
SUSTAINABLE ENERGY, GRIDS AND NETWORKS
Autore/i: Di Somma, M.; Ciabattoni, L.; Comodi, G.; Graditi, G.
Classificazione: 1 Contributo su Rivista
Abstract: Local multi-energy systems (LMES) have been recently recognized as a promising alternative to centralized energy supply systems to meet local energy needs, since they promote efficient use of the available energy thanks to the coordination of heat and power technologies, storage, flexible demand and plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs). In this framework, PEVs represent loads to satisfy in the grid-to-vehicle (G2V) mode, while also serving as distributed storage when equipped with vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology, and can provide both economic and environmental benefits if properly managed. The contribution of this paper is to present a comprehensive multi-objective optimization model for the energy management of an LMES in the presence of PEVs, with the aim to combine maximization of LMES operator's profit with the minimization of CO2 emissions. The LMES supplies electricity, heat and cooling to a building cluster with PEVs, which can operate in both G2V and V2G modes. The problem consists of dispatching technologies in the LMES and finding the optimized charging/discharging strategies of PEVs in order to maximize the operator's profit while also reducing CO2 emissions, and it is addressed by formulating a multi-objective linear programming problem with the detailed modeling of interdependencies among energy carriers. The weighted sum method is used to represent the eco-environmental optimization problem, and it is solved by using CPLEX solver and considering a cluster of office buildings located in Italy as end-user of the LMES with PEVs owned by the offices’ employees. Testing results demonstrate the effectiveness of the optimization framework to maximize the operator's profit while also reducing the CO2 emissions, thanks to the optimal coordination of the multiple energy carriers in the LMES and the effective management of the flexibility collected at both supply and demand sides. Moreover, it is found that through the optimized charging and discharging strategies, the PEVs, acting as distributed energy storage, allow the provision of demand response services by also complementing renewable power to improve energy efficiency. In detail, under the economic optimization, most of flexibility collected from PEVs is sold into the wholesale market in order to maximize the operator's profit, whereas, under the environmental optimization, the power discharged from PEVs is exploited for self-use in the LMES to minimize environmental impacts by using a carbon-free source.

Abstract: In an Energy Management (EM) scenario, photo-voltaic (PV) generation systems could lead to an important cost-saving and "shiftable loads" (e.g., dishwasher, washing machine, cooker hood) play an important role. Among all "shiftable loads", electric boiler has considerable importance since it can be considered as a thermal storage. In this perspective, it is crucial to know the typical usage patterns and the state of charge of this appliance. In this paper, a methodology to identify the electric boiler usage patterns and to estimate its state of charge is presented.

Classificazione: 1 Contributo su Rivista
Abstract: Mobile and pervasive computing enabled a new realm of possibilities into the indoor positioning domain. Although many candidate technologies have been proposed, no one can still adapt to every use case. A case centered design and the implementation of the solution within the specific domain is the current research trend. With the rise of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Beacons, i.e., platforms used to interact digitally with the real world, more standard positioning solutions are emerging in different contexts. However the reachable positioning accuracy with this technology is still unacceptable for some real applications (e.g., in the healthcare sector or the emergency management). In this paper, an hybrid localization application coupling a real time model based Pedestrian Dead Reckoning (PDR) technique and the analysis of the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) of BLE beacons is proposed. In particular, the smartphone application is composed by three main real time threads: a model based step length estimation, heading determination and the fusion of beacon information to reset the position and the drift error of the PDR. In order to give soundness to our approach we firstly validated the step length smartphone app with a stereo-photogrammetric system. The whole proposed solution was then tested on fifteen healthy subjects.

Abstract: Background and aims. Freezing of Gait (FOG) is a distressing gait disorder frequently related to Parkinson’s disease (PD) progression and severe disability. Detecting and quantifying FOG, in a clinical setting, is difficult given its episodic nature; hence, reliable tools are warranted for FOG monitoring in the daily life. A number of wearable sensors to detect FOG have been studied, but the majority of the available technology lacks ‘‘ecological’’ validation. The study is aimed at assessing the usability, at home, of the smartphone-based system for FOG detection, validated in the outpatient setting (Capecci et al,2016). Moreover, the correlation between data collected in the daily living scenario and those recorded in the laboratory has been sought. Method. 24 patients with PD-related resistant-FOG were studied. At baseline, the following measures were taken: UPDRS, New-FOG-Q, 6MWT, PDQ-39, GFQ and video-recorded TUG-test with and without dual-tasks while wearing the smartphone, in both OFF and ON medication conditions. Patients were instructed on how to use the FOG monitoring system at home, and were requested to wear it for three consecutive days. The system was customized to record the number of FOG events and FOG duration per minute walking. Results.23 out of 24 patients (95.83%) complied with the recommendations about system wearing, and used the system 263[185;461] minutes/day. Median[IQR] values recorded during the 3 days were:3[1.05;5.15] FOG/min and 5.1[1.52;9.47]sec/min of FOG duration. Both parameters were significantly related with the number and duration of FOG events recorded during the simple-TUG performed either in OFF or in ON medication conditions(p=.001), and with dual-task in ON condition(p=.003). They were also related with GFQ(p=.006) and NFOG scores(p=.03). Conclusions. A smartphone-based FOG monitoring system is usable and reliable, even in daily living situations. It could be of great help in assessing the efficacy of rehabilitation approaches to relieve FOG-related disability.

Abstract: In this chapter, a Variable Structure Control law is presented and applied to solve the tracking problem for a Remotely Operated Vehicle. Unlike the classical Sliding Mode Control, which is composed by a single sliding surface, the proposed control law presents two coupled sliding surfaces. It follows that the state space can be divided into two spaces, namely one between the surfaces and one outside them. In the region outside the surfaces, the controller is designed similarly as for the classical Sliding Mode Control, while, inside the area, the system is in free motion. It follows that the control effort is null for some time intervals, hence a reduction of control efforts is possible. In order to test the performances of the proposed technique, exhaustive simulations are made for a Remotely Operated Vehicle, and compared with classical Sliding Mode Control, where linear sliding surfaces are taken into consideration for both cases, combined with a bang-bang-type control logic. Simulation results show that, for the tracking problem, the proposed Variable Structure Control technique performs better both in terms of performances (estimated with the Integral of Absolute Error) and energy consumption (estimated with a related cost function).

Abstract: This paper presents a L-dopa-Induced Dyskinesia Detection and Classification System based on Machine Learning Algorithms, wearable device (smartwatch) data and a smart-phone, connected via Bluetooth. This system was developed in three steps. The first step is the data collection, where each patient wears the smartwatch and performs some tasks while the smart-phone App captures data. These performed tasks are of different nature (i.e., writing, walking, sitting and cognitive task). In the second phase, some features were extracted from acceleration and angular velocity signals and a Z-score normalization is applied. In the last step two Machine Learning Algorithms, trained with these features as input, are used in order to detect and classify dyskinesias.

Classificazione: 1 Contributo su Rivista
Abstract: In a reconfigurable manufacturing scenario, control system design needs innovative approaches to face the rapid changes in hardware and software modules. The control system should be able to automatically tune its parameters to enhance machine performances and dynamically adapt to different control objectives (e.g., minimize control efforts or maximize tracking performances) while preserving at the same time stability and robustness properties. In this paper, a robust control system for permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs), together with an online self-tuning method, is presented. In particular, a robust discrete-time variable structure control (VSC) has been designed. A heuristic bio-inspired approach has been then implemented on a digital signal processor (DSP) to find the VSC parameter set which minimizes a specific objective function each time a novel speed reference is provided. Experimental results on a PMSM motor show the effectiveness of the proposed controller and tuning method, with noticeable improvements with respect to the original manufacturer-designed controller.

Abstract: In this paper a robust Fall Detection Algorithm by using a deep learning approach and a low-cost mobile robot equipped with an RGB camera is presented. This method consists of four steps. The first step is the user detection, achieved by a real-time video stream and a Deep Learning approach. Once the user is detected, then its position is estimated in the second step. In the third step, if a fall is detected, a photo is acquired and a pre-registered audio message asks the user how he is. In the last step the photo and the audio captured are sent to a Telegram Bot (TB) in order to alert family members or caregivers. Tests have been performed in a real scenario.

Abstract: This paper proposes a system for recognizing hu- man complex activities by using unobtrusive sensors such as smartphone, smartwatch and bluetooth beacons. The method encapsulates two classification stages. The former is composed of two parallel processes: the Main Activity Detection (MAD) and the Room Detection (RD). The latter implements the Complex Activity Detection (CAD) process by exploiting the outputs of the first stage and the accelerometer data of the smartwatch. The cascade classification approach that combines the room detection with the main/complex activities recognition task constitutes the novelty of the work. Preliminary results demonstrate the reliability of the system in terms of accuracy and macro-F1 score.

Abstract: Combining availability, viability, sustainability, technical options, and environmental impact in an energy-planning project is a difficult job itself for the today’s engineers. This becomes harder if the potential investors also need to be persuaded. Moreover, the problem increases even more if various consumptions are considered, as their patterns depend to a large extent on the type of facility and the activity. It is therefore essential to develop tools to assess the balance between generation and demand in a given installation. In this paper, a valuable tool is developed for the seamless calculation of the integration possibilities of renewable energies and the assessment of derived technical, financial and environmental impacts. Furthermore, it also considers their interaction with the power grid or other networks, raising awareness of the polluting emissions responsible for global warming. Through a series of Structured Query Language databases and a dynamic data parameterization, the software is provided with sufficient information to encode, calculate, simulate and graphically display information on the generation and demand of electric, thermal and transport energy, all in a user-friendly environment, finally providing an evaluation and feasibility report.

Abstract: The Italian Ministry of Economic Development and the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development (ENEA) have entered into a Program Agreement for the execution of the research and development lines of General Interest for the national electricity system. In particular, as part of the "Development of an integrated model of the Urban Smart District" project, an experimental demonstration of a Smart Home network has been carried out in the Centocelle district of Rome, called "Centocelle Smart Home". This project aims to develop a replicable model of Smart Home able to monitor energy consumption, the degree of comfort and safety in residential buildings, transmitting them to a higher level technological platform where data are analyzed and aggregated to provide a series of feedbacks to the user and to the community. The objective is to reduce the final consumption of energy (electric and thermal) of domestic consumers through a path of growth of energy awareness, also providing additional services on security. This paper presents the architecture proposed in the ENEA project for monitoring the energy consumption and increasing the degrees of comfort and safety of domestic users. The proposed security service is presented here together with the developed "Out of Home" App.

Abstract: Background: The objective of this study was to investigate, in subject with stroke, the exact role as prognostic factor of common inflammatory biomarkers and other markers in predicting motor and/or cognitive improvement after rehabilitation treatment from early stage of stroke. Methods: In this longitudinal cohort study on stroke patients undergoing inpatient rehabilitation, data from 55 participants were analyzed. Functional and clinical data were collected after admission to the rehabilitation unit. Biochemical and hematological parameters were obtained from peripheral venous blood samples on all individuals who participated in the study within 24 hours from the admission at the rehabilitative treatment. Data regarding the health status were collected at the end of rehabilitative treatment. First, a feature selection has been performed to estimate the mutual dependence between input and output variables. More specifically, the so called Mutual Information criterion has been exploited. In the second stage of the analysis, the Support Vector Machines (SVMs), a non-probabilistic binary machine learning algorithm widely used for classification and regression, has been used to predict the output of the rehabilitation process. Performances of the linear SVM regression algorithm have been evaluated considering a different number of input features (ranging from 4 to 14). The performance evaluation of the model proposed has been investigated in terms of correlation, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and Mean Absolute Deviation Percentage (MADP). Results: Results on the test samples show a good correlation between all the predicted and measured outputs (i.e. T1 Barthel Index (BI), T1 Motor Functional Independence Measure (FIM), T1 Cognitive FIM and T1 Total FIM) ranging from 0.75 to 0.81. While the MADP is high (i.e., 83.96%) for T1 BI, the other predicted responses (i.e., T1 Motor FIM, T1 Cognitive FIM, T1 Total FIM) disclose a smaller MADP of 30%. Accordingly, the RMSE ranges from 4.28 for T1 Cognitive FIM to 22.6 for T1 BI. Conclusions: In conclusion, the authors developed a new predictive model using SVM regression starting from common inflammatory biomarkers and other ratio markers. The main efforts of our model have been accomplished in regard to the evidence that the type of stroke has not shown itself to be a critical input variable to predict the discharge data, furthermore, among the four selected indicators, Barthel at T1 is the less predictable (MADP > 80%), while it is possible to predict T1 Cognitive FIM with an MADP less than 18%.

Statistical Spectral Analysis for Fault Diagnosis of Rotating Machines
IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONICS
Autore/i: Ciabattoni, Lucio; Ferracuti, Francesco; Freddi, Alessandro; Monteriu, Andrea
Classificazione: 1 Contributo su Rivista
Abstract: Condition-based monitoring of rotating machines requires robust features for accurate fault diagnosis, which is indeed directly linked to the quality of the features extracted from the signals. This is especially true for vibration data, whose quasi-stationary nature implies that the quality of frequency domain extracted features depends on the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) condition, operating condition variations and data segmentation. This paper presents a novel Statistical Spectral Analysis, which leads to highly robust fault diagnosis with poor SNR conditions, different time-window segmentation and different operating conditions. The amplitudes of spectral contents of the quasi-stationary time vibration signals are sorted and transformed into statistical spectral images. The sort operation leads to the knowledge of the Empirical Cumulative Distribution Function (ECDF) of the amplitudes of each frequency band. The ECDF provides a robust statistical information of the distribution of the amplitude under different SNR and operating conditions. Statistical metrics have been adopted for fault classification, by using the ECDFs obtained from the spectral images as fault features. By applying simple statistical metrics, it is possible to achieve fault diagnosis without classifier training, saving both time and computational costs. The proposed algorithm has been tested using a vibration data benchmark: comparison with state-of-the-art fault diagnosis algorithms shows promising results.

Classificazione: 1 Contributo su Rivista
Abstract: In this paper, we present a two stages actuator Fault Tolerant Control (FTC) strategy for the trajectory tracking of a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV). Dynamic Surface Control (DSC) is used to generate the moment and forces required by the vehicle to perform the desired motion. In the second stage of the control system, a fault tolerant thruster allocation policy is employed to distribute moment and forces among the thrusters. Exhaustive simulations have been carried out in order to compare the performance of the proposed solution with respect to different control techniques (i.e., PID, backstepping and sliding mode approaches). Saturations, actuator dynamics, sensor noises and time discretization are considered, in fault-free and faulty conditions. Furthermore, in order to provide a fair and exhaustive comparison of the control techniques, the same meta-heuristic approach, namely Artificial Bee Colony algorithm (ABC), has been employed to tune the controllers parameters.

Abstract: In this paper we present a low cost telerehabilitation system made up of a commercial RGB-D camera and a web-based platform. Our goal is to monitor and assess subject movement providing acceptable and usable at-home remote rehabilitation ser- vices without the presence of a clinician. Clinical goals, defined by physiotherapists, are firstly translated into motion analysis features. A Takagi Sugeno Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) is then proposed to evaluate and combine these features into scores. In this stage the “collaborative design” paradigm is used in depth and complete manner: the contribution of the clinician is not limited only to the rules definition but enters in the core of the evaluation algorithm through the definition of the fuzzy rules. A case study on low back pain rehabilitation involving 40 subjects, 5 exercises and 4 physiotherapists is then presented to effectiveness of the proposed system. Results of the validation of the system aimed at the assessment of the reliability of the proposed approach show high correlations between clinician evaluation and FIS scores. In this scenario, due to the high correlation, each FIS could represent a virtual alter-ego of the physiotherapist which enable a real time and free second opinion.

Abstract: In an energy management (EM) perspective, an ob- jective function considering the balance of energy and resources needs to be optimized. To reach the goal, in a residential scenario, a number of tasks (typically appliances) can be managed (e.g. shifted). This paper proposes an unobtrusive cascade classifier approach to autonomously identify the different appliances and their priorities (shiftable, non interruptible, continuous loads) in EM algorithms based on smart plugs measures.

Abstract: The use of ambient assisted living technology, namely technology to improve the quality of life of people at home, is becoming a common trait of modern society. This technology, however, is difficult to be completely defined and classified, since it addresses many different human needs ranging from the physiological sphere to the psychological and social ones. In this chapter we focus on personal monitoring and data acquisition in smart homes, and propose the results of our research activities in the form of the description of three functional prototypes, each one addressing a specific need: an environmental monitoring system to measure the respiratory rate, a domotic architecture for both comfort assessment and user indoor localization, and a device for supporting mobility indoors. Each prototype description is followed by an experimental analysis and, finally, by considerations suggesting possible future developments in the very near future.

In particular, due to the inner stochastic nature and intermittency of the solar production and in order to face the irradiance rapid changes, a robust and fast controller is needed. Sliding Mode Control (SMC) is a well-known approach to control systems under heavy uncertain conditions. However, one of the major drawbacks of this control technique is the high frequency chattering generated by the switching control term. In the proposed solution, we introduce a fuzzy inference system to set the controller parameters (boundary layer and gains) according to the measured irradiance. A comparison of the designed Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control (FSMC) with two popular controllers (PI and Backstepping) is performed. In particular, FSMC shows better performances in terms of steady state chattering and transient response, as confirmed by IAE, ISE and ITAE performance indexes. © Springer International Publishing AG 2017.

Abstract: In this chapter, a design method for determining the optimal sliding mode controller parameters for a quadrotor dynamic model using the Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm is presented. In particular, due to the effort to determine optimal or near optimal sliding mode parameters, which depend on the nature of the considered dynamic model, a population based solution is proposed to tune the parameters. The proposed population based-method tunes the controller parameters (boundary layers and gains) according to a fitness function that measures the controller performances. A comparison of the designed sliding mode control with two popular controllers (PID and Backstepping) applied to a quadrotor dynamic model is proposed. In particular sliding mode control shows better performances in terms of steady state and transient response, as confirmed by performance indexes IAE, ISE, ITAE and ITSE. © Springer International Publishing AG 2017.

Abstract: An unobtrusive method to realize human fall detection by using bluetooth beacons, a smartphone and a low cost mobile robot is presented. The method is composed by five steps. The first consists in extracting features from the smartphone acceleration data, which are then analysed online by the fall detection algorithm. Once the fall event is detected, then the location is determined by using the bluetooth signal received from beacons. Then, the mobile robot moves towards the user's location, and finally verifies if the detected fall event is a true positive or not, through a procedure based on voice interaction with the potentially fallen user. The method has been tested in laboratory, proving to be a viable solution to perform fall detection in smart homes via consumer devices.

Abstract: An active fault tolerant control technique for Underwater Remotely Operated Vehicles is proposed in this paper. The main objective is to develop a controller for the tracking problem, which is robust against possible actuator faults and failures. The main advantage of the proposed fault tolerant control scheme is to develop a unique controller, and thus a unique set of control parameters, regardless the presence of faults and failures. This is achieved through a redistribution of the control effort on the healthy actuators. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the viability of the proposed fault accommodating technique.

Abstract: In this paper, a new open-source SW framework for energy management is presented. Its name is rEMpy, which stands for residential Energy Management in python. The framework has a modular structure and it is composed by an optimal scheduler, a user interface, a prediction module and the building thermal model. Unlike most of the EMs in literature, rEMpy is open-source, can be fully customized (in terms of tasks, modules and algorithms) and integrates in real-time a thermal modelling software. In this contribution, an overview of the rEMpy and its constitutive parts is given first, followed by a detailed description of the rEMpy modules and the communication system. The Computational Intelligence algorithms which perform forecasting, thermal modelling and optimal scheduling are also presented. The performance of rEMpy is finally evaluated in two case studies with different heating technologies and the results are reported and discussed.

Abstract: Ambient intelligence technologies have the objective to improve the quality of life of people in daily living, by providing user-oriented services and functionalities. Many of the services and functionalities provided in Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) require the user position and identity to be known, and thus user localization and identification are two prerequisites of utmost importance. In this work we focus our attention on human indoor localization. Our aim is to investigate how Received Signal Strength (RSS) based localization can be performed in an easy way by exploiting common Internet of Things (IoT) communication networks, which could easily integrate with custom networks for AAL purposes. We thus propose a plug and play solution where the Beacon Nodes (BNs) are represented by smart objects located in the house, while the Unknown Node (UN) can be any smart object held by the user. By using real data from different environments (i.e., with different disturbances), we provide a one-slope model and test localization performances of three different algorithms. © Springer International Publishing AG 2017.

Abstract: Control and monitoring of indoor thermal conditions represent crucial tasks for people’s satisfaction in working and living spaces. In the first part of the chapter we address thermal comfort issues in a working office scenario. Among all standards released, predicted mean vote (PMV) is the international index adopted to define users thermal comfort conditions in moderate environments. In order to optimize PMV index we designed a novel fuzzy controller suitable for commercial Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems. However in a residential scenario it would be extremely expensive to gather real time measures for PMV computation. Indeed in the second part of the chapter we introduce a novel approach for residential multi room comfort control based on humidex index. A fuzzy logic controller is introduced to reach and maintain comfort conditions in a living environment. Both control systems have been experimentally tested in the central east coast of Italy. Temperature regulation performances of both approaches have been compared with those of a classical PID based thermostat. © 2016, Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.

Abstract: This work presents the design of an exergaming interface and an assessment tool for the analysis of physical activities. Typically, exergaming aim to engage the user in physical or cognitive activities by qualitative goals that do not take into account the quantitative assessment of the exercise execution. In this work, authors propose an interactive interface which displays a human avatar and returns a real-time visual feedback highlighting where the user is mistaken. Moreover, the performance assessment is obtained by Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm based on quaternion-based pose distance. Differently from other approaches, a quantitative motion assessment is provided through the rotational constraint descriptors of physical exercises, chosen by specialists, allowing its implementation in eHealth context.

Abstract: n this paper we focus our attention on the world of Internet of Things (IoT) objects and their potential for human indoor localization. Our aim is to investigate how Received Signal Strength (RSS) can be effectively used for identifying the position of a person at home, by exploiting common IoT communication networks. We propose a plug and play solution where the Anchor Nodes (ANs) are represented by smart objects located in the house, while the Unknown Node (UN) can be any smart object held by the user. The proposed solution automatically identifies the rooms where the smart objects are placed, by comparing a fuzzy weighted distance matrix derived from the anchor signals, with a threshold weighted distance matrix derived from the distances between rooms. The information can be easily integrated in any IoT environment to provide the estimation of the user position, without requiring the a priori knowledge of the positions of the anchor nodes. © 2016 IEEE.

Abstract: This paper extends our previous work [1] on the design of a thruster failure tolerant control scheme for underwater vehicles. The proposed control scheme is based on the use of a suitable thruster allocation algorithm, which consists on a modified version of the Moore-Penrose pseudo inverse. In this work, each thruster of the underwater vehicle can rotate, offering a significant advantage to optimize its control. When a thruster experiences a failure, the resulting thrust force, which should be allocated to the failed actuator, is reallocated to the still faultless thrusters. Moreover, the angle of each thrusters is set to minimize the control effort. A bank of controllers is built so that each controller is designed to control the considered underwater vehicle under a specific actuator failure scenario. © 2016 IEEE.

Abstract: In this paper a new algorithm for indoor localization, namely Fuzzy Discrete Multilateration (FDM), is proposed. As the name suggests, it elaborates data from any number of transmitters (anchor nodes), and returns the estimated position of an unknown receiver. Furthermore, two cascade fuzzy inference systems are employed to evaluate the reliability of the data gathered from each beacon. The algorithm has been tested in different real world environments, where the anchor nodes are smart objects and the unknown node is any smart object held by the user to be localized. The performances of our algorithm has been compared with those of three well known localization algorithms (with a beacon density ranging from 0.03 to 0.1 beacon/m2) and results are shown. © 2016 IEEE.

Abstract: Health monitoring is nowadays one of the hottest markets due to the increasing interest in prevention and treatment of physical problems. In this context the development of wearable, wireless, open-source, and nonintrusive sensing solutions is still an open problem. Indeed, most of the existing commercial architectures are closed and provide little flexibility. In this paper, an open hardware architecture for designing a modular wireless sensor node for health monitoring is proposed. By separating the connection and sensing functions in two separate boards, compliant with the IEEE1451 standard, we add plug and play capabilities to analog transducers, while granting at the same time a high level of customization. As an additional contribution of the work, we developed a cosimulation tool which simplifies the physical connection with the hardware devices and provides support for complex systems. Finally, a wireless body area network for fall detection and health monitoring, based on wireless node prototypes realized according to the proposed architecture, is presented as an application scenario.

Abstract: In recent years the European Union and, moreover, Italy has seen a rapid growth in the photovoltaic (PV) sector, following the introduction of the feed in tariff schemes. In this scenario, the design of a new PV plant ensuring savings on electricity bills is strongly related to household electricity consumption patterns. This chapter presents a high-resolution model of domestic electricity use, based on Fuzzy Logic Inference System. The model is built with a "bottom-up" approach and the basic block is the single appliance. Using as inputs patterns of active occupancy and typical domestic habits, the fuzzy model give as output the likelihood to start each appliance within the next minute. In order to validate the model, electricity demand was recorded over the period of one year within 12 dwellings in the central east coast of Italy. A thorough quantitative comparison is made between the synthetic and measured data sets, showing them to have similar statistical characteristics. The focus of the second part of this work is to develop a neural networks based energy management algorithm coupled with the fuzzy model to correctly size a residential photovoltaic plant evaluating the economic benefits of energy management actions in a case study. A cost benefits analysis is presented to quantify its effectiveness in the new Italian scenario and the evaluation of energy management actions. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015.

Abstract: Since 2002 the European Union has seen a rapid growth in the photovoltaic (PV) sector. During the last two years incentives for PV installations were cut almost worldwide slowing the growth of the market. In this scenario the design of a new plant ensuring economic convenience is strongly related to household electricity consumption patterns and energy management actions. This paper presents a high-resolution model of domestic electricity use based on Fuzzy Logic Inference System. Taking into account consumers sensibility concerning the rational use of energy, the model gives as output a 1-min resolution overall electricity usage pattern of the household. The focus of this work is the use of a novel fuzzy model combined with a cost benefits analysis to evaluate the real economic benefits of load shifting actions. A case study is presented to quantify its effectiveness in the new net metering Italian scenario. © 2015 Elsevier B.V.

Classificazione: 1 Contributo su Rivista
Abstract: In the residential energy sector there is a growing interest in smart energy management systems able to monitor, manage and minimize energy consumption. A key factor to curb household energy consumption is the amendment of occupant erroneous behaviors and systems malfunctioning. In this scenario energy efficiency benefits can be either amplified or neutralized by, respectively, good or bad practices carried out by end users. Authors propose a diagnostic system for a residential microgrid application able to detect faults and occupant bad behaviors. In particular a nonlinear monitoring method, based on kernel canonical variate analysis, is developed. To overcome the normality assumption regarding the signals probability distribution, Upper Control Limits are derived from the estimated Probability Density Function through Kernel Density Estimation. The proposed method, applied to a smart residential microgrid, is tested on experimental data acquired from July 2012 to October 2013.

Artificial intelligence and new technologies for photovoltaic systems in the Italian scenario
Autore/i: Ciabattoni, Lucio
Editore: Università Politecnica delle Marche
Classificazione: 8 Tesi di dottorato
Abstract: Il sempre più rapido declino delle fonti di energia tradizionali, la crescente domanda di energia e il problema ambientale hanno spinto negli ultimi anni la ricerca verso lo sfruttamento di nuove fonti di energia pulite. Sebbene inferiore ad altre fonti energetiche in termini di capacità installata il solare fotovoltaico (FV) è tuttora la più importante fonte di generazione distribuita (GD) del pianeta. La crescita del mercato italiano è stata spinta da una serie di decreti per l’incentivazione della tecnologia FV, iniziati nel 2005 con il cosiddetto "Primo Conto Energia". Le tariffe incentivanti per la produzione di energia da solare fotovoltaico sono state oggetto di continue modifiche fino al Giugno 2013 quando il governo ha deciso di eliminare definitivamente incentivi per i nuovi impianti installati. Con quasi 550,000 impianti e 17,4 GW di potenza installata, la generazione distribuita di FV ha un ruolo molto importante nello scenario italiano come parte integrante della rete nazionale. Sebbene da un lato il sistema elettrico benefici della presenza di sistemi di generazione distribuita, dall’altro sorgono numerosi problemi di integrazione dovuti alla natura dell’energia solare. Una questione importante da fronteggiare è quella della variabilità della produzione (ad esempio per via del rapido passaggio di nubi). In questo lavoro di tesi si cercherà di affrontare il problema mediante algoritmi di previsione basati su reti neurali e con l’ausilio di sistemi di storage dell’energia. Un ulteriore problema legato al FV è quello della perdita di efficienza dovuta all’innalzamento della temperatura del pannello. In questa discussione verrà mostrato e studiato un innovativo prototipo di un sistema attivo di raffreddamento della superficie dei moduli. Per ultimo verrà esaminato il problema della differenza temporale tra energia prodotta e consumo di utenti residenziali, sia dal punto di vista di energy management a livello domestico che mediante l’uso di batterie, necessarie per stoccare l’eccesso di energia nei periodi di produzione di picco.

Abstract: A method merging the features of variable structure control and neural network design is presented for speed control of a permanent magnet synchronous motor. The proposed control approach is based on a discrete-time variable structure control and a robust digital differentiator for speed estimation. Radial basis function neural networks are used to learn about uncertainties affecting the system. A stability analysis is provided and the ultimate boundedness of the speed tracking error is proved. Control performance has been evaluated by simulations using the model of a commercial permanent magnet synchronous motor drive.

Abstract: In recent years, Italy has seen a rapid growth in the PV (photovoltaic) sector, following the introduction of the FIT (feed in tariff) scheme known as Conto Energia. In July 2013 the Italian government definitively cut FITs, leaving only tax benefits and a revised net metering scheme (known as “Scambio sul Posto”) for new PV installations. In this scenario, the design of a new PV plant ensuring savings on electricity bills is strongly related to household electricity consumption patterns. This paper presents a high-resolution model of domestic electricity use. The model is based on Fuzzy Logic Inference System. Using as inputs patterns of active occupancy and typical domestic habits, the fuzzy model give as output the likelihood to start each appliance within the next minute. The model has been validated with electricity demand data recorded over the period of one year within 12 dwellings in the central east coast of Italy. The tool has been used to evaluate the self consumption percentage to correctly size a residential photovoltaic plant in a case study. A cost benefits analysis is presented to show the effectiveness of PV-generation in the new Italian scenario.

Abstract: The freezing of gait (FOG) is a common and highly distressing motor symptom of patients with Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Effective management of FOG is difficult given its episodic nature, heterogeneous manifestation and limited responsiveness to drug treatment. Clinicians found alternative approaches, such as rhythmic cueing. We built a smartphone-based architecture in agreement with acceptability and usability requirements which is able to gather data and information useful to detect FOG. In this work fusing together the information of freeze index, energy, cadency variation and the ratio of the derivative of the energy a novel Fuzzy Logic based algorithm is developed. Performances of the Fuzzy algorithm are compared with two other algorithms showing its capability to reduce false negative detection thus improving sensitivity and specificity

Abstract: An on-line prediction algorithm able to estimate, over a determined time horizon, the solar irradiation of a specific site is considered. The learning algorithm is based on Radial Basis Function (RBF) networks and combines the growing criterion and the pruning strategy of the minimal resource allocating network technique. An adaptive extended Kalman filter is used to update all the parameters of the Neural Network (NN). The on-line learning mechanism avoids the initial training of the NN with a large data set. The proposed solution has been experimentally tested on a 14 kWp PhotoVoltaic (PV) plant and results are compared to a classical RBF neural network. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013.
