Integration of Distributed Generation (DG) on distribution networks has a positive impact which includes the following: low power losses, improved utility system reliability and voltage improvement at buses. A real distribution network is radial in which energy flow is unidirectional from generation to transmission and from distribution to the load. However, when a DG is…

In this study, we developed and evaluated an automatic abstractive summarization algorithm in Japanese using a neural network.

The encoder obtained a feature-based input vector of sentences using the bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT) technique. A transformer-based decoder returned the summary sentence from the output…

Quantum computers are heterogeneous device. It consists of a main CPU and a quantum accelerator. True quantum accelerator (or coprocessor) is analog and probabilistic device. Qubits are the basic building blocks of quantum computers. But qubits can be digital. A digital qubit is similar to RISC processor pipeline and is an unique chain of digital…
