Ultra-Short-Term Photovoltaic Power Prediction Based On Improved Patchtst Considering Data Drift, Huawei Mei, Penghui Yang, Yang Yu

Journal of System Simulation

Existing PV power prediction methods often suffer from limited accuracy and robustness due to three key shortcomings: relying on single-point mapping that cannot fully extract local temporal patterns; inadequate exploration of the global temporal dependencies in PV output, and failure to account for prevalent data drift phenomena. To overcome these limitations,an improved patch time series transformer (PatchTST) based approach is proposed for ultra-short-term PV power prediction. The methodology applies rough set theory for feature dimensionality reduction, effectively preserving critical decision information by analyzing both feature-label relationships and inter-feature correlations. An enhanced PatchTST model with a modified channel-independent mechanism extracts …

Preliminary feature extraction was completed by the backbone network. 3D spatial positional coding with geometric constraints was obtained through a joint query embedding generation module. A graph relationship optimization network was utilized to perform graph relationship calculation and …

Sos Effectiveness Evaluation Method Based On Fuzzy Functional Dependency Network Analysis, Hongjia Su, Cheng Zhang, Fei Liu

Journal of System Simulation

Functional dependency network analysis (FDNA) enables modeling functional dependencies among equipment in a system of systems (SoS) and then computing the whole SoS effectiveness based on the effectiveness of each equipment, thus overcoming the deficiency of traditional SoS effectiveness evaluation based on tree-like index systems. However, critical parameters such as strength/criticality of dependency in this methodology currently rely on subjective empirical assignments, where the deviations resulting from subjectivity may compromise the accuracy of effectiveness evaluation. To address this limitation, this paper proposes a fuzzy FDNA (FFDNA)-based SoS effectiveness evaluation method. This method constructs a functional dependency network (FDN) model …

Multi-Level Digital Model Of Dynamic Earned Value Management For Complex Engineering Projects And Its Applications, Wei Wang, Dong Liu, Xinhao Cui, Bo Li, Yiyong Xiao, Yi Ren

Journal of System Simulation

The economic management of existing engineering projects is usually based on organizational structure, which presents problems such as complex processes and difficulty in clarifying main responsibilities when applied to complex engineering projects. In response to this limitation, a multi-level digital model of dynamic earned value management is proposed for complex engineering projects, which extends the traditional cost performance indicators to engineering resource utility indicators, thereby decomposing the earned value of costs into segmented earned values of different engineering resources. This enables managers to dynamically supervise projects based on traditional "schedule-cost" performance indicators and carry out more refined cost control …

Operational Responsibility In Ai Governance: A User-Centric Liability Framework, Zhengyang Chen

Faculty Publications

Who bears responsibility when artificial intelligence systems cause harm? This question has become central to AI ethics and governance. Most existing approaches focus on developers, yet this faces serious practical and theoretical problems. Drawing on tort law, agency law, and philosophy of technology, this paper argues that AI should be understood as an instrument whose outputs remain the responsibility of human operators rather than developers. We call this 'user-centric governance.' Placing accountability with deployers promotes public trust by creating clear lines of responsibility, a concern that governance approaches have often overlooked. It preserves democratic accountability by keeping human actors answerable …
