Neural Network-Based Impedance Identification and Stability Analysis for Double-Sided Feeding Railway Systems

The double-sided power supply railway system increases the simultaneous operation of vehicles on the grid, potentially causing system instability and oscillation overvoltage issues. As vehicles frequently switch operating points during operation, it is essential to analyze system stability across a wide range of conditions. Therefore, accurately identifying the black-box impedance of vehicle converters at multiple operating points is crucial for studying railway vehicle-grid system stability. However, traditional impedance identification methods require extensive data and lack interpretability, leading to significant computational and data burdens. This study introduces an interpretable residual feedforward neural network (ResFNN) combined with SHapley Additive exPlanations for training vehicle impedance models, reducing data requirements while maintaining accuracy. Additionally, a component connection method is proposed for deriving the impedance matrix of a multivehicle railway system under the double-sided feeding mode. This method incorporates the dynamic mobility of vehicles and their positional distribution, and it utilizes the ResFNN to identify impedance for stability analysis. Real operational data from actual railway lines is used as case study to analyze the stability of the double-sided power supply railway system. The results demonstrate that this approach accurately assesses both lowfrequency and high-frequency instability issues.

Dissipativity-Based Multiport Stability Root-Cause Identification and Mitigation for Solid-State Transformers

For solid-state transformers (SSTs) in high-power grid-connected applications, improperly designed control loops can excite strong inherent AC-DC port coupling, leading to low-frequency oscillation issues, especially under weak grid conditions. To address this problem, this article establishes a multiport admittance matrix for the SST, encompassing its AC dq axes and primary DC port, to characterize its inherent dynamics. Subsequently, a multiport dissipativity analysis is conducted to evaluate the robust stability of the SST. By leveraging the decomposition of passivity conditions into distinct self- and coupling-dissipativity indices, the specific root causes of instability are diagnosed. This framework reveals that a severe coupling-dissipativity failure, induced by the internal dynamics of the synchronization loop, is the dominant instability mechanism rather than a localized self-dissipativity issue. Guided by this diagnosis, a stabilizing controller featuring dynamics-free orthogonal signal reconstruction is designed to reshape the admittance characteristics of the SST. This enhancement specifically targets the identified coupling-dissipativity deficiencies, thereby resolving the root cause of the instability. Finally, the stability analysis and the effectiveness of the enhancement strategy are validated on a down-scaled SST prototype. Experimental results demonstrate that the criterion accurately predicts the coupling-induced oscillations and that the enhanced controller guarantees stable operation under challenging weak-grid conditions.

AgriGPT-VL: Agricultural Vision-Language Understanding Suite

Despite rapid advances in multimodal large language models, agricultural applications remain constrained by the scarcity of domain-tailored models, curated vision-language corpora, and rigorous evaluation. To address these challenges, we present the AgriGPT-VL Suite, a unified multimodal framework for agriculture. Our contributions are threefold. First, we introduce Agri-3M-VL, the largest vision-language corpus for agriculture to our knowledge, curated by a scalable multi-agent data generator; it comprises 1M image-caption pairs, 2M image-grounded VQA pairs, 50K expert-level VQA instances, and 15K GRPO reinforcement learning samples. Second, we develop AgriGPT-VL, an agriculture-specialized vision-language model trained via a progressive curriculum of textual grounding, multimodal shallow/deep alignment, and GRPO refinement. This method achieves strong multimodal reasoning while preserving text-only capability. Third, we establish AgriBench-VL-4K, a compact yet challenging evaluation suite with open-ended and image-grounded questions, paired with multi-metric evaluation and an LLM-as-a-judge framework. Experiments show that AgriGPT-VL outperforms leading general-purpose VLMs on AgriBench-VL-4K, achieving higher pairwise win rates in the LLM-as-a-judge evaluation. Meanwhile, it remains competitive on the text-only AgriBench-13K with no noticeable degradation of language ability. Ablation studies further confirm consistent gains from our alignment and GRPO refinement stages. We will open source all of the resources to support reproducible research and deployment in low-resource agricultural settings.
