Wind Turbine Parameter Calibration Using Deep Learning Approaches, Rebecca Mccubbin
Wind Turbine Parameter Calibration Using Deep Learning Approaches, Rebecca Mccubbin
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The inertia and damping coefficients are critical to understanding the workings of a wind turbine, especially when it is in a transient state. However, many manufacturers do not provide this information about their turbines, requiring people to estimate these values themselves. This research seeks to design a multilayer perceptron (MLP) that can accurately predict the inertia and damping coefficients using the power data from a turbine during a transient state. To do this, a model of a wind turbine was built in Matlab, and a simulation of a three-phase fault was used to collect realistic fault data to input into …

Deep Learning Methods For Fingerprint-Based Indoor And Outdoor Positioning, Fahad Alhomayani
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Outdoor positioning systems based on the Global Navigation Satellite System have several shortcomings that have deemed their use for indoor positioning impractical. Location fingerprinting, which utilizes machine learning, has emerged as a viable method and solution for indoor positioning due to its simple concept and accurate performance. In the past, shallow learning algorithms were traditionally used in location fingerprinting. Recently, the research community started utilizing deep learning methods for fingerprinting after witnessing the great success and superiority these methods have over traditional/shallow machine learning algorithms. The contribution of this dissertation is fourfold:
First, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)-based method for …
