Robust Max Consensus Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks
­Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a distributed network consisting of multi-functional sensors, which can communicate with neighboring sensors over wireless channels. Estimating statistics of sensor measurements in WSNs is necessary for detecting anomalous sensors, supporting nodes with insufficient resources, determining network area estimation,...

Fault Classification in Photovoltaic Arrays Using Dropout and Pruned Neural Networks
Faults in utility-scale solar arrays often lead to increased maintenance costs and reduced efficiency. Since photovoltaic (PV) arrays are generally installed in remote locations, maintenance and annual repairs due to faults incur large costs and delays. To automatically detect faults, PV arrays can be equipped with smart electronics that provide data...

Consensus-Based Distributed Estimation of Network Spectral Radius
Distributed wireless sensor networks are an essential part of modern Internet-of-Things (IoT) and sensor fusion systems. In such networks, all the distributed agents have to reach consensus on a value of interest. The spectral radius of the graph is the largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix, and is a useful characterization of the network graph....

Detection and Classification of Faults in Photovoltaic Arrays Using a Graph-Based Classifier
In the last decade, new solar photovoltaic (PV) cell technologies have emerged for grid-connected systems. However, automatic fault detection and accurate diagnostics for PV array systems are still challenging problems. Even with over-current protection devices (OCPD), ground fault detection interrupters (GFDI), and smart monitoring devices (SMDs) with...
