Self-Protective Inverters Against Malicious Setpoints Using Analytical Reference Models

Abstract

This paper presents the concept of self-protective inverters using reference models. In the proposed method, incoming setpoints from the utility operator or third-party aggregators are inspected using analytical reference models before engaging the setpoints to the inverter’s local controller. When a malicious setpoint passes the existing security layers, a smart inverter can examine the integrity of an incoming setpoint in real-time. The efficacy of the developed method has been tested using a laboratory setup, including a three-phase 3kVA SiC-MOSFET inverter and a 12kW NHR 9410 regenerative grid emulator. Furthermore, the results verify that the developed analytical models can provide device-level protection for grid-interactive inverters by inspecting and preventing harmful setpoints from getting engaged to the local controller.

Large language models for transportation research: Methodologies, state of the art, and future opportunities

The rapid rise of large language models (LLMs) is transforming transportation research, with significant advancements emerging between 2023 and 2025, a period marked by the inception and swift growth of adopting and adapting LLMs for various transportation applications. Despite these significant advancements, however, a systematic review and synthesis of the existing literature remains lacking. This paper aims to fill this gap by providing a comprehensive review of the methodologies and applications of LLMs in transportation. We explore key applications, including autonomous driving, travel behavior prediction, and general transportation-related queries, alongside LLM methodologies such as zero- or few-shot learning, prompt engineering, and fine-tuning. From the review, critical research gaps are identified. From the methodological perspective, many of the research limitations can be addressed by integrating LLMs with existing tools and refining LLM architectures. From the application perspective, research opportunities for LLMs to address various transportation challenges are also explored. By synthesizing these findings, this review not only presents the state-of-the-art LLM adoption and adaptation in transportation, but also proposes future research directions as well as insights and recommendations for policymakers and practitioners, paving the way for greater LLM-driven research innovations in transportation in the future.
