Novel IEC 61850-based off-site engineering and validation methodology for protection, automation, and control systems

The IEC 61850 standard has driven the development of power systems Protection, Automation, and Control Systems (PACS) over the past years. Although it is well-known for its communication protocols, several concepts and features are underused. This paper presents a new engineering and validation methodology applying the IEC61850 standards concepts to optimize the project life cycle by standardizing and enhancing engineering and testing. An electrical specification has been defined according to the IEC 61850 data modeling, reducing misinterpretations at the specification and configuration stage. The proposed top-down configuration approach establishes a user’s profile and product naming to eliminate the vendor’s dependability. The validations were performed using modern commercial tools. The results show that the proposed methodology makes it possible to have a reliable engineering process where the output of the previous stage provides all required information is independent of the next one. The project naming approach makes it possible to validate the system integration based on the agnostic system specification files in an early project stage. Thus, the protection devices and supervision systems can be validated independently, reducing integration issues in the later stages without affecting interoperability and making it possible to achieve interchangeability.

Whisper-based spoken term detection systems for search on speech ALBAYZIN evaluation challenge

The vast amount of information stored in audio repositories makes necessary the development of efficient and automatic methods to search on audio content. In that direction, search on speech (SoS) has received much attention in the last decades. To motivate the development of automatic systems, ALBAYZIN evaluations include a search on speech challenge since 2012. This challenge releases several databases that cover different acoustic domains (i.e., spontaneous speech from TV shows, conference talks, parliament sessions, to name a few) aiming to build automatic systems that retrieve a set of terms from those databases. This paper presents a baseline system based on the Whisper automatic speech recognizer for the spoken term detection task in the search on speech challenge held in 2022 within the ALBAYZIN evaluations. This baseline system will be released with this publication and will be given to participants in the upcoming SoS ALBAYZIN evaluation in 2024. Additionally, several analyses based on some term properties (i.e., in-language and foreign terms, and single-word and multi-word terms) are carried out to show the Whisper capability at retrieving terms that convey specific properties. Although the results obtained for some databases are far from being perfect (e.g., for broadcast news domain), this Whisper-based approach has obtained the best results on the challenge databases so far so that it presents a strong baseline system for the upcoming challenge, encouraging participants to improve it.

Representation of the program model using predicates

The object of research in this article is the process of modeling programs and their subsequent development. The purpose of this article is to develop a methodology for describing and building software models in the form of nondeterministic finite automat. To achieve this goal, a task was set to improve the method for describing such models using predicates based on the MODEL CHECKING technology. The result of this article is a method for describing and presenting program models directly according to the chosen algorithm using predicates. If the program algorithm is chosen and described correctly, the resulting model should also be correct. The model will be a non-deterministic state machine that will not require further checking, as provided by the MODEL CHECKING technology. Structurally, the model will represent a special database, the processing of which will allow turning the model into a program in any procedural programming language. When developing parallel programs that are widely used for control in aviation, land transport, military affairs, etc., two additional states of the automaton are introduced into the model, which take into account the features of such programs. Therefore, a state monitor is provided for access to shared resources and a state protocol to process parallel branches of the program. To describe the algorithm of the program, we propose to present it in the form of a connected sequence of certain actions using predicates with the use of extended temporal logic. This description covers both the logic of the program and its branches and the specific actions at each location of the program model. With the help of this methodology, a program model of a stack algorithm was developed, which is the main component for the future automated system of processing the description of program models. The program which was created according to this technology, is currently in the testing and verification stage. The sequence of processing steps of such a model is shown in the example of a floating-point constant translation program. This program is also created using this technology in the target language assembly, has been fully tested, and has shown its functionality. This description covers both the logic of the program with its branches and the specific actions at each location of the application model. Conclusions: with a correct description of the program algorithm, an adequate model of it is built, with the help of which the program itself is created in the target procedural programming language. Note that in the conditions of the rapid development of management and control automation systems in various spheres of human activity, research on the creation of reliable based on the description of their models is an urgent problem.004.414.23:510.637

Analysis of forced aligner performance on L2 English speech

There is growing interest in how speech technologies perform on L2 speech. Largely omitted from this discussion are tools used in the early data processing steps, such as forced aligners, that can introduce errors and biases. This study adds to the conversation and tests how well a model pre-trained for the alignment of L1 American English speech performs on L2 English speech. We test and discuss the impact of language variety, demographic factors, and segment type on the performance of the forced aligner. We also examine systematic errors encountered.Forty-five speakers representing nine L2 varieties were selected from the Speech Accent Archive and force aligned using the Montreal Forced Aligner. The phoneme-level boundary placements were manually corrected in order to assess differences between the automatic and manual alignments. Results show marked variation in the performance across language groups and segment types for the two metrics used to assess accuracy: Onset Boundary Displacement, a distance metric between the automatic and manual boundary placements, and Overlap Rate, which indicates to what extent the automatically aligned segment overlaps with the manually aligned segment. The highest accuracy on both measures was obtained for German and French, and lowest accuracy for Russian. The aligner's performance on all varieties was comparable to that on conversational American English and non-standard varieties of English. Furthermore, the percentage of boundary placements within 10 and 20 ms of the corrected boundary was similar to that observed between transcribers. Apart from errors due to variety mismatch, most issues encountered in the alignment were due to issues not exclusive to L2 speech such as inaccurate orthographic transcriptions, hesitations, specific voice qualities, and background noise.The results of this study can inform the use of automatic aligners on L2 English speech and provide a baseline of potential errors and information to help the development of more robust alignment tools for further development of automatic systems using L2 English.

An improved development process of production plants using digital twins with extended dynamic behaviour in virtual commissioning and control – Simulation@Operations

AbstractThe challenges in automation system development are driven by short development cycles and individualization along with resource‐constraints. State of the art solutions do not provide the necessary digital tools to apply model‐based methods in automation engineering to achieve higher performing systems. To overcome these issues this paper presents a novel approach to address some of the current challenges in automation systems development using digital twins with extended dynamic behaviour. The study underscores how dynamic models can be imported through standardised interfaces into virtual commissioning (VC) tools, improving the development process by effectively utilising domain‐specific expertise. The paper highlights how these digital twins enhance not only the VC process but can also be applied to model‐based control methods. Initial experiments showcase the utility of digital twins in calculating dynamic acceleration limits during trajectory planning of CNC control and enhancing feed‐forward control. Further, the importance of parameter identification in achieving accurate system models is stressed. The initial results are promising, and future work aims to combine these methods in an industrial application involving a newly developed, individual lightweight robot, demonstrating the potential for enhanced design, accelerated development, and resource efficiency in automation systems.
