    Disruption prediction with artificial intelligence techniques in tokamak plasmas
    (Springer Nature, 2022-06-06) Vega, J.; Murari, A.; Rattá, Giuseppe A.; Gelfusa, Michela; Contributors, JET.; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    In nuclear fusion reactors, plasmas are heated to very high temperatures of more than 100 million kelvin and, in so-called tokamaks, they are confined by magnetic fields in the shape of a torus. Light nuclei, such as deuterium and tritium, undergo a fusion reaction that releases energy, making fusion a promising option for a sustainable and clean energy source. Tokamak plasmas, however, are prone to disruptions as a result of a sudden collapse of the system terminating the fusion reactions. As disruptions lead to an abrupt loss of confinement, they can cause irreversible damage to present-day fusion devices and are expected to have a more devastating effect in future devices. Disruptions expected in the next-generation tokamak, ITER, for example, could cause electromagnetic forces larger than the weight of an Airbus A380. Furthermore, the thermal loads in such an event could exceed the melting threshold of the most resistant state-of-the-art materials by more than an order of magnitude. To prevent disruptions or at least mitigate their detrimental effects, empirical models obtained with artificial intelligence methods, of which an overview is given here, are commonly employed to predict their occurrence—and ideally give enough time to introduce counteracting measures.

    Decoupled feedforward-feedback periodic event-triggered control for disturbance rejection
    (Elsevier, 2021-04-14) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guinaldo Losada, María; Guzmán, José Luis; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    In this paper, feedforward and feedback controllers are studied considering decoupled periodic event-triggering mechanisms for output and disturbance sensors. Stability and robustness conditions for linear systems are obtained considering transportation delays and actuator saturation following the Lyapunov-Krasovskii procedure. A numerical example shows that the proposed control strategy reduces the communication between sensors and controller significantly, while the system performance is not deteriorated.

    A novel feature engineering approach for high-frequency financial data
    (Elsevier, 2023-10) Mantilla, Pablo; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    Feature engineering for high-frequency financial data based on constructing dynamic data subsets, defined by time intervals in which high-frequency trends occur, is proposed. These intervals are obtained through time series segmentation. This methodology allows us to extract and analyze variables by intraday trends as well as to feed artificial intelligence models to forecast response variables in future trends. Furthermore, to show how to use this feature engineering, this methodology is applied to estimate high-frequency volatility, duration and direction linked to future intraday trends, developing multiclass classification models based on the machine learning method extreme gradient boosting. Experimentation was conducted using high-frequency financial data from the Brazil Stock Exchange, corresponding to 206 trading days related to 20 listed assets from this financial market.

    An event-based adaptation of the relay feedback experiment for frequency response identification of stable processes
    (Elsevier, 2023-04-13) Sánchez Moreno, José; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Chacón Sombría, Jesús; Dormido Canto, Sebastián; Elsevier; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0898-3462
    An event-based modification of the classical relay feedback experiment without the inclusion of additional elements (integrator, time delay, . . . ) for identification of the spectrum of stable processes between zero and the phase cross-over frequency is presented. By inserting an event-based sampler in the control loop, the natural behaviour of a classical relay is simulated and the system is forced to work in two modes. The event-based sampler activates the first mode by sending control actions to the process every time the error signal crosses zero; this mode is to discover the approximated value of the cross-over frequency ω180◦ . During the second mode, the event-based sampler sends samples to the process simulating that the error signal crosses zero at ω180◦ /N where N is the number of points to identify in the range 0 ≤ ω ≤ ω180◦ . One advantage of this procedure is that the logic used in an already existing relay feedback experiment to fit a transfer function model or tune a controller could be maintained just replacing the relay block by the event-based sampler block presented in the paper. Simulations and experiments with different processes and in presence of noise demonstrate the effectivity of the procedure.

    A novel approach to periodic event-triggered control: Design and application to the inverted pendulum
    (ELSEVIER, 2016) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guinaldo Losada, María; Gordillo, Francisco; Dormido Canto, Sebastián; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4252-944X
    In this paper, periodic event-triggered controllers are proposed for the rotary inverted pendulum. The control strategy is divided in two steps: swing-up and stabilization. In both cases, the system is sampled periodically but the control actions are only computed at certain instances of time (based on events), which are a subset of the sampling times. For the stabilization control, the asymptotic stability is guaranteed applying the Lyapunov–Razumikhin theorem for systems with delays. This result is applicable to general linear systems and not only to the inverted pendulum. For the swing-up control, a trigger function is provided from the derivative of the Lyapunov function for the swing-up control law. Experimental results show a significant improvement with respect to periodic control in the number of control actions.

    Periodic Event-Triggered Swing-Up Control of the Inverted Pendulum
    (Springer, 2016) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Gordillo, F.; Guinaldo Losada, María; Dormido Canto, Sebastián; Garrido, Paulo; Soares, Filomena; Moreira, António Paulo
    In this paper, a novel strategy for swinging up an inverted pendulum is proposed. The strategy combines an energy-based control law with an event triggering condition to minimize transmissions, protect actuators and save energy. In addition, the strategy is periodic event-triggered, which provides two main advantages: An analytical way to determine a priori the sampling period to guarantee the appropriate behavior and an easy implementation in real prototypes.

    Obtaining high preventive and resilience capacities in critical infrastructure by industrial automation cells
    (Elsevier, 2020-06) González, Santiago G.; Dormido Canto, Sebastián; Sánchez Moreno, José
    The advances in Information Technologies (ITs) are providing Industrial Control Systems (ICS) with a great capacity for interconnection and adaptability. However, the use of communication networks makes ICS highly vulnerable. Consequently, it is essential to develop methodologies for the identification and subsequent classification of the ICS that intervene in critical infrastructure assets with any level of complexity, scalability and heterogeneity. The System and Infrastructure of Knowledge for Real Experimentation by means of Cells of Industrial Automation (SIKRECIA), described in this work, provides new capabilities for research, development, simulation and testing of the functioning of these systems, and the ability to foresee the behavior of a specific system in industrial production. The scenarios recreated through SIKRECIA have the ability to anticipate new threats that affect the ICS of critical infrastructures. Using SIKRECIA, a specific vulnerability of a PLC has been verified through the engineering programmed for the management of a traffic light control system. The results obtained demonstrate the high dependence between IT and OT (Operation Technologies) systems and therefore the importance of being able to recreate those environments before entering into operation. As SIKRECIA is an open system, it can use components from different industrial manufacturers to cover the existing architectures in the process industry.

    A linear equation based on signal increments to predict disruptive behaviours and the time to disruption on JET
    (IOP Publishing, 2019-12-13) Vega, J.; Murari, A.; Hernández, F.; Cruz, T.; Gadariya, Dhaval; Rattá, Giuseppe A.; Contributors, JET.; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    This article describes the development of a generic disruption predictor that is also used as basic system to provide an estimation of the time to disruption at the alarm times. The mode lock signal normalised to the plasma current is used as input feature. The recognition of disruptive/non-disruptive behaviours is not based on a simple threshold of this quantity but on the evolution of the amplitudes between consecutive samples taken periodically. The separation frontier between plasma behaviours (disruptive/non-disruptive) is linear in such parameter space. The percentages of recognised and false alarms are 98% and 4%, respectively. The recognised alarms can be split into valid alarms (90%) and late detections (8%). The experimental distribution of warning times follows an exponential model with average warning time of 443 ms. On the other hand, the prediction of the time to the disruption has been fitted to a Weibull model that relates this predicted time to the distance of the points to the diagonal in the parameter space of consecutive samples. The model shows a very good agreement between predicted times and warning times in narrow time intervals (between 0.01 s and 0.06 s) before the disruption.

    Event-based Control: A Bibliometric Analysis of Twenty Years of Research
    (IEEE, 2020-03-04) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guinaldo Losada, María; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Chacón, Jesús; Vargas, Héctor; Sánchez, José; Sánchez Moreno, José; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    The potential benefits of networked control systems are tremendous, as they can be easily upgraded by just including new components (i.e., sensors, actuators, or controllers), avoiding any further modifications to their structure. A critical approach to unleash such potential benefits is event-based control, where the system output turns to be sampled on demand, instead of being sampled constantly at rigid periods of time. This paper analyzes from a bibliometric point of view the literature published for the last twenty years on event-based control, identifying the most relevant articles, authors, institutions, and journals. Moreover, the principal topics, motivations, and problems faced by the researchers are discussed, identifying distinct challenges and opportunities for future research.

    This article presents a closed-loop position control of a mobile robot, which is capable of moving from its current position to a target point by manipulating its linear and angular velocities. The main objective of this article is to modify an existing control law based on the kinematic model to improve the response when the robot is backwards oriented and to reach the destination point in less time and with a shorter trajectory. Stability of the proposed control law is validated by Lyapunov Criterion. Some procedures are implemented to test this approach both in simulation with MATLAB, and experimentally with the Khepera IV robot.
