Low-Ripple Modulation Strategy for a Photovoltaic-Based Triple-Port Hydrogen Production System

Among various production methods, hydrogen generation via electrolysis powered by renewable energy plays a key role in achieving large-scale green hydrogen production. The triple active bridge isolated DC-DC conversion system exhibits significant application potential in hydrogen production due to its advantages, such as high energy density, wide step-down ratio, and high reliability. However, the output current ripple at the hydrogen production port critically affects the efficiency of the electrolyzer and the hydrogen production rate. Existing studies have limited optimization effects on current ripple and struggle to achieve dynamic optimization, leading to constrained ripple suppression under dynamic operating conditions. To address this issue, this paper proposes a low-ripple modulation strategy based on coordinated optimization of inner and outer phase-shift angles for multi-port power conversion systems in renewable energy hydrogen production. By establishing an accurate mathematical model, the optimal phase-shift angle combination under minimal current ripple conditions is derived. An improved differential evolution algorithm with adaptive parameter strategy is employed to achieve global optimization under dynamic conditions. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed strategy effectively suppresses current ripple, providing an efficient and reliable solution for hydrogen production from fluctuating renewable energy sources.

Actionable Guidance Outperforms Map and Compass Cues in Demanding Immersive VR Wayfinding

Navigation aids are central to immersive virtual reality (VR) experiences that involve physical locomotion. Their effectiveness depends not only on how much spatial information they provide, but also on how directly that information supports movement decisions. We compared three common guidance techniques for immersive VR wayfinding: a directional arrow, a minimap, and a compass. In a controlled room-scale VR study with 42 participants completing 1008 trials, participants navigated to target landmarks in a time-pressured maze with reduced visibility and forced route replanning. Across behavioral and eye-tracking measures, arrow guidance produced the strongest navigation performance, minimap guidance yielded intermediate performance, and compass cues performed worst, suggesting that during immersive locomotion users benefit from guidance that can be interpreted rapidly while moving. These results suggest that in demanding immersive locomotion tasks, interfaces that translate spatial information directly into actionable movement cues can outperform richer but more interpretive spatial representations. Our findings highlight the importance of designing XR navigation interfaces that minimize the cognitive translation between spatial information and movement decisions.

Weighted Graph Structure Learning with Attention Denoising for Node Classification

Node classification in graphs aims to predict the categories of unlabeled nodes by utilizing a small set of labeled nodes. However, weighted graphs often contain noisy edges and anomalous edge weights, which can distort fine-grained relationships between nodes and hinder accurate classification. We propose the Edge Weight-aware Graph Structure Learning (EWGSL) method, which combines weight learning and graph structure learning to address these issues. EWGSL improves node classification by redefining attention coefficients in graph attention networks to incorporate node features and edge weights. It also applies graph structure learning to sparsify attention coefficients and uses a modified InfoNCE loss function to enhance performance by adapting to denoised graph weights. Extensive experimental results show that EWGSL has an average Micro-F1 improvement of 17.8% compared with the best baseline.

Predicting the Temporal Dynamics of Prosthetic Vision

Retinal implants are a promising treatment option for degenerative retinal disease. While numerous models have been developed to simulate the appearance of elicited visual percepts ("phosphenes"), these models often either focus solely on spatial characteristics or inadequately capture the complex temporal dynamics observed in clinical trials, which vary heavily across implant technologies, subjects, and stimulus conditions. Here we introduce two computational models designed to accurately predict phosphene fading and persistence under varying stimulus conditions, cross-validated on behavioral data reported by nine users of the Argus II Retinal Prosthesis System. Both models segment the time course of phosphene perception into discrete intervals, decomposing phosphene fading and persistence into either sinusoidal or exponential components. Our spectral model demonstrates state-of-the-art predictions of phosphene intensity over time (r = 0.7 across all participants). Overall, this study lays the groundwork for enhancing prosthetic vision by improving our understanding of phosphene temporal dynamics.
