Energy management of buildings with energy storage and solar photovoltaic: A diversity in experience approach for deep reinforcement learning agents
Download2024-01-01
Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is a suitable approach to handle uncertainty in managing the energy consumption of buildings with energy storage systems. Conventionally, DRL agents are trained by randomly selecting samples from a data set, which can result in overexposure to some data...

Stability and Intervehicle Distance Analysis of Vehicular Platoons: Highlighting the Impact of Bidirectional Communication Topologies
Download2024-02-18
Amir Zakerimanesh, Tony Z. Qiu, Mahdi Tavakoli
Vehicular platooning, a configuration comprising a leading vehicle and multiple follower vehicles (FVs) seeks to achieve and maintain specific intervehicle distances (IDs) while synchronizing FVs with the velocity and acceleration of the leading vehicle. Before attaining a desired stable state,...

Metabolism of isoniazid by neutrophil myeloperoxidase leads to isoniazid-NAD+ adduct formation: A comparison of the reactivity of isoniazid with its known human metabolites
Download2024-01-01
The formation of isonicotinyl-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (INH-NAD+) via the mycobacterial catalase-peroxidase enzyme, katG, has been described as the major component of the mode of action of isoniazid (INH). However, there are numerous of human peroxidases that may catalyze this reaction....
