Keyword: TestingDual Mode Control of an Inverted Pendulum: Design, Analysis and Experimental Evaluation
We present an inverted pendulum design using readily available V-slot rail components and 3D printing to construct custom parts. To enable the examination of different pendulum characteristics, we constructed three pendulum poles of different lengths. We implemented a brake mechanism to modify sliding friction resistance and built a paddle that can be attached to the…

Many millions of people have adverse effects on their lives, both socially and economically, when a power outage occurs. Along with other electrical events, the lack of Situational Awareness (SA) is one of the root causes of power system outages. In order to promote adequate situational awareness, both power system and microgrid interfaces should communicate…

Read MoreExploiting Domain-Aware Aspect Similarity for Multi-Source Cross-Domain Sentiment Classification
We propose a novel framework exploiting domain-aware aspect similarity for solving the multi- source cross-domain sentiment classification problem under the constraint of little labeled data. Existing works mainly focus on identifying the common sentiment features from all domains with weighting based on the coarse-grained domain similarity. We argue that it might not provide an accurate…
