    Huo, Xiang / Liu, Mingxi

    2023

    Abstract The rapidly growing penetration of renewable energy resources brings unprecedented challenges to power distribution networks - management of a large population of grid-tied controllable devices encounters control scalability crises and potential end-user privacy breaches. Despite the importance, research on privacy preservation of distributed energy resource (DER) control in a fully scalable manner is lacked. To fill the gap, this paper designs a novel decentralized privacy-preserving DER control framework that 1) achieves control scalability over DER population and heterogeneity; 2) eliminates peer-to-peer communications and secures the privacy of all participating DERs against various types of adversaries; and 3) enjoys higher computation efficiency and accuracy compared to state-of-the-art privacy-preserving methods. A strongly coupled optimization problem is formulated to control the power consumption and output of DERs, including solar photovoltaics and energy storage systems, then solved using the projected gradient method. Cloud computing and secret sharing are seamlessly integrated into the proposed decentralized computing to achieve privacy preservation. Simulation results prove the capabilities of the proposed approach in DER control applications.

    Abstract A fluorescent immunosorbent assay incorporating signal amplification away from the surface of spherical nucleic acid (SNA) was developed for the detection of chloramphenicol (CAP). Through the conjugation of antibodies and poly-adenine (polyA) DNA onto the surface of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), the fabrication of the nano-immunoprobe was achieved in a more straightforward and cost-effective manner. Moreover, a strategy utilizing the hybridization chain reaction (HCR) in the amplification step was devised, with particular attention given to the enzyme inhibition associated with SNA. The results demonstrated good performance on CAP detection with a linear range of 0.01-5 ng/L with a detection limit of 0.005 ng/L. The significance of this work mainly lies in the polyA-SNA-based immunoprobe and the thoughtful design to prevent enzyme inhibition.

    Abstract Introduction: Differences in seasonal pattern and age-related infection risk have been reported between Influenza type A and B, but have not been elaborated at subtype/lineage level.
    Methodology: All laboratory-confirmed influenza cases reported in the influenza surveillance system of Jiangsu Province, China from January 2011 to August 2019 were analyzed. Influenza seasonality was characterized using the Seasonal Decomposition method. Binary and multinomial logistic regressions were employed to calculate the odds ratios of influenza subtypes/lineages in relation to age.
    Results: A total of 28,772 confirmed influenza cases were included. Among them, a majority (64.1%) were influenza A infections. One annual peak was observed for A (H1N1) pdm and B-Yamagata in winter months, and for B-Victoria in spring months, while biannual peaks were observed for A (H3N2) in winter and summer months. Using all ages as the reference, children younger than 5 years and adults of 25-59 years were more likely to infect with A (H1N1) pdm. Older children aged 5-14 years had significantly higher odds of infection with influenza B of both lineages, while individuals aged 15-24 years had higher odds for A (H3N2) and B-Victoria. The elderly (60 years or older) were prone to be infected with A (H3N2) and B-Yamagata. For a specific age group, their likelihood of getting infected with an influenza subtype or lineage was related to the co-circulating influenza subtype or lineage.
    Conclusions: Influenza viruses have divergent seasonal peak times and age-related infection risk at subtype/lineage level.

    Abstract Introduction: The secondary attack rate (SAR) measures the transmissibility of an infectious agent. The reported SAR of COVID-19 varied in a broad range, and between different contact settings.
    Methodology: We conducted a meta-analysis on the SAR of COVID-19 with adherence to the PRISMA guideline. We searched published literatures and preprints in international databases of PubMed and medRxiv, and in five major Chinese databases as of 20 April 2020, using the following search terms: ("COVID-19" and "secondary attack rate") or ("COVID-19" and "close contact"). The random effect model was chosen for pooled analyses, using R (version 3.6.3).
    Results: A total of 1,136 references were retrieved and 18 of them remained after screening. The pooled SAR of COVID-19 was 0.07 (95%: 0.03-0.12) in general. It differed significantly between contact settings, peaking in households (0.20, 95%: 0.15-0.28), followed by in social gatherings (0.06, 95%: 0.03-0.10). The point estimates of the pooled SARs in health facilities, transports, and work/study settings were all as low as 0.01. Among all the secondary cases, the proportion of asymptomatic infections was estimated to be 0.17 (95% CI: 0.09 - 0.34). The proportion was higher in households (0.26, 95% CI: 0.12-0.56), than in other contact settings.
    Conclusions: The transmission risk of SARS-CoV-2 is much higher in households than in other scenarios. Identification of asymptomatic secondary infections should be enhanced in households.

    Abstract Distributed and decentralized multi-agent optimization (DMAO) algorithms enable the control of large-scale grid-edge resources, such as electric vehicles (EV), to provide power grid services. Despite its great scalability, DMAO is fundamentally prone to cyber attacks as it is highly dependent on frequent peer-to-peer communications. Existing cyber-security research in this regard mainly focuses on \emph{broad-spectrum} attacks aiming at jeopardizing the entire control system while losing the possibility of achieving specific attacking purposes. This paper, for the first time, explores novel \emph{for-purpose} algorithmic attacks that are launched by participating agents and interface with DMAO to achieve self-interest attack purposes. A decentralized EV charging control problem is formulated as an illustrative use case. Theoretical \emph{for-purpose} attack vectors with and without the stealthy feature are devised. Simulations on EV charging control show the practicability of the proposed algorithmic \emph{for-purpose} attacks and the impacts of such attacks on distribution networks.

    Abstract Cooperative electric vehicle (EV) charging control has emerged as a key component in grid-edge resource (GER) management. However, customers' privacy remains a major barrier to large-scale implementation of EV charging control. In this paper, we develop a distributed privacy-preserving EV charging control protocol based on secret sharing (SS) that 1) achieves scalability over EV population size; 2) enjoys higher computation efficiency compared to homomorphic encryption (HE) based methods; and 3) secures the privacy of the participating EVs against honest-but-curious adversaries and external eavesdroppers. The cooperative EV charging control is formulated to achieve overnight valley-filling and framed into the projected gradient algorithm (PGA) structure as a distributed optimization problem. SS is integrated into PGA to achieve secure updates of both primal and dual variables. Theoretical security analyses and simulations in a residential area are conducted to prove the privacy preservation guarantee as well as the efficacy and efficiency of the proposed privacy preservation method. Broadly, the proposed method can be readily extended to various GER control applications.

    Abstract The charging processes of a large number of electric vehicles (EVs) require coordination and control for the alleviation of their impacts on the distribution network and for the provision of various grid services. However, the scalability of existing EV charging control paradigms are limited by either the number of EVs or the distribution network dimension, largely impairing EVs' aggregate service capability and applicability. To overcome the scalability barrier, this paper, motivated by the optimal scheduling problem for the valley-filling service, (1) proposes a novel dimension reduction methodology by grouping EVs (primal decision variables) and establishing voltage (global coupled constraints) updating subsets for each EV group in the distribution network and (2) develops a novel decentralized shrunken primal multi-dual subgradient (SPMDS) optimization algorithm to solve this reduced-dimension problem. The proposed SPMDS-based control framework requires no communication between EVs, reduces over 43% of the computational cost in the primal subgradient update, and reduces up to 68% of the computational cost in the dual subgradient update. The efficiency and efficacy of the proposed algorithm are demonstrated through simulations over a modified IEEE 13-bus test feeder and a modified IEEE 123-bus test feeder.
