Abstract

Graph neural networks (GNNs) have emerged as a powerful tool for analyzing and modeling complex relationships within graphs, finding applications in diverse fields like social network analysis, drug discovery, and computer vision. However, traditional GNN architectures often suffer from limitations in capturing long-range dependencies, hindering their ability to effectively represent and learn from intricate structural information. This paper introduces Adaptive Graph Neural Networks (AGNNs) with a novel temporal memory mechanism, designed to address this challenge. The AGNN dynamically updates the network's memory across time, allowing it to better incorporate past states into its current predictions. We demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach through extensive experiments on several benchmark graph datasets, showcasing significant improvements in performance, particularly in tasks requiring long-range dependency identification. The proposed method offers a fundamentally new approach to GNNs, pushing the boundaries of their ability to handle complex graph structures.

Locality-Preserving Graph Laplacian Manifold Learning Based Model Predictive Control for Three-Phase Inverters

This article presents a model predictive control (MPC) strategy for three-phase inverters based on locality preserving projections (LPPs). Unlike conventional machine learning–based MPC approaches that rely on predefined or high-dimensional input features, the proposed LPP-MPC automatically extracts compact, informative representations by preserving the data’s intrinsic geometric structure. This dimensionality reduction enables fast linear control-law evaluation with computational complexity O(1), making the controller well-suited for real-time implementation. Experimental results demonstrate that the LPP-MPC achieves lower total harmonic distortion (THD) and reduced tracking error compared to quadratic-programming MPC under both linear and nonlinear load conditions, and the proposed controller maintains consistently lower THD throughout load transients than other methods such as two-degree-of-freedom MPC. Compared to existing model-free MPC and deep learning neural network, the LPP-MPC has the lowest THD and root mean square error with the least computational time owing to its efficient linear structure and strong generalization capability.
