Pattern recognition techniques of myoelectric signals have been widely used to identify hand motions and gestures. These techniques have demonstrated that significant motor control information can be extracted and have been implemented in robotic-assistance like prosthesis control. Nevertheless, few investigations have been carried on subjects after a stroke event. In this study, a series of pattern recognition parameters were investigated in the classification of 4 hand exercises (open-close hand, flexion-extension wrist, spread fingers, and pinch grip) involving the affected limb of 4 stroke subjects. Features from EMG data in the time and frequency domains are extracted for training three different classification methods (svm, knn, lda). The classifiers are trained for each exercise individually. Also, it compares 3 methods of feature selection to maintain high levels of classification accuracy: Two-sample T-test with feature variances, Separability Index, and Davies-Boulding Index. The knn classifier obtained the best performance in average for all cases with 87:4% of accuracy, followed by SVM with 82:2% and LDA with 74:5%. The average classifier performances for each exercise were 90:9%, 84:6%, 83:5%, 66:2% for open-close hand, flexion-extension wrist, spread fingers, and pinch grip respectively.

(4) Full Error Detection and Correction Method Applied on Pipelined Structure using two Approaches

In this paper, two approaches are evaluated using the Full Error Detection and Correction(FEDC) method for a pipelined structure. The approaches are referred to as Full Duplication with Comparison (FDC) and Concurrent Checking with Parity Prediction (CCPP). Aforementioned approaches are focused on the borderline cases of FEDC method which implement Error Detection Circuit (EDC) in two manners for the purpose of protection of combinational logic to address the soft errors of unspeci¯ed duration. The FDC approach implements a full duplication of the combinational circuit, as the most complex and expensive implementation of the FEDC method, and the CCPP approach implements only the parity prediction bit, being the simplest and cheapest technique, for soft error detection. Both approaches are capable of detecting soft errors in the combinational logic, with single faults being injected into the design. On the one hand, the FDC approach managed to detect and correct all injected faults while the CCPP approach could not detect multiple faults created at the output of combinational circuit. On the other hand, the FDC approach leads to higher power consumption and area increase compared to the CCPP approach.

Due to the nature of applications such as critical infrastructure and the Internet of Things etc. side channel analysis attacks are becoming a serious threat. Side channel analysis attacks take advantage from the fact that the behaviour of crypto implementations can be observed and provides hints that simplify revealing keys. A new type of SCA is the so called horizontal differential SCA. In this paper we investigate two different approaches to increase the inherent resistance of our hardware accelerator for the kP operation. The first approach aims at reducing the impact of the addressing in our design by realizing a regular schedule of the addressing. In the second approach, we investigated how the formula used to implement the multiplication of GF(2n)-elements influences the results of horizontal DPA attacks against a Montgomery kP-implementation. We implemented 5 designs with different partial multipliers, i.e. based on different multiplication formulae. We used two different technologies, i.e. a 130 and a 250 nm technology, to simulate power traces for our analysis. We show that the implemented multiplication formula influences the success of horizontal attacks significantly. The combination of these two approaches leads to the most resistant design. For the 250 nm technology only 2 key candidates could be revealed with a correctness of about 70% which is a huge improvement given the fact that for the original design 7 key candidates achieved a correctness of more than 90%. For our 130 nm technology no key candidate was revealed with a correctness of more than 60%.

Modern communication systems rely heavily on cryptography to ensure authenticity, confidentiality and integrity of exchanged messages. Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) is one of the common used standard methods for encrypting and signing messages. In this paper we present our implementation of a design supporting four different NIST Elliptic Curves. The design supports two B-curves (B-233, B-283) and two P-curves (P-224, P-256). The implemented designs are sharing the following hardware components bus, multiplier, alu and registers. By implementing the 4 curves in a single design and reusing some resources we reduced the area by 14% compared to a design without resource sharing. Compared to a pure software solution running on an Arm Cortex A9 operating at 1GHz, our design ported to a FPGA is 1.2 to 6 times faster.

(20) High-Resolution Net Load Forecasting for Micro-Neighbourhoods with High Penetration of Renewable Energy Sources

International Journal of Electrical Power & Energy Systems 117, 105635 (2020)
DOI: 10.1016/j.ijepes.2019.105635, (SmartGrid Plattform)
Though extensive, the literature on electrical load forecasting lacks reports on studies focused on existing residential micro-neighbourhoods comprising small numbers of single-family houses equipped with solar panels. This paper provides a full description of an ANN-based model designed to predict short-term high-resolution (15-minute intervals) micro-scale residential net load profiles. Since it seems especially relevant due to the specificity of local autocorrelations in load signal, in this paper we put stress on the systematic approach to feature selection in the context of lagged signal. We performed a case study of a real micro-neighbourhood comprising only 75 single-family houses. The obtained average prediction error was equivalent to 5.4 per cent of the maximal measured net load. Both issues, i.e.: 1) the feasibility of micro-scale residential load forecasting taking into account renewable energy penetration, and 2) the feature selection problem, could be of interest to engineers designing energy balancing systems for local smart grids.
