Online evaluation method for MMC submodule capacitor aging based on CapAgingNet by Xinlan Deng, Youhan Deng, Liang Qin, Weiwei Yao, Min He, Kaipei Liu

“…Subsequently, the CapAgingNet model is introduced, incorporating key technical modules to enhance performance: the Deep Stem module, which extracts larger receptive fields through multiple convolution layers and mitigates the impact of data sparsity in capacitor aging on feature extraction; the efficient channel attention (ECA) module, utilizing one-dimensional convolution for dynamic weighting to adjust the importance of each channel, thereby enhancing the ability of the model to process high-dimensional features in capacitor aging data; and the multiscale feature fusion (MSF) module, which integrates capacitor aging information across different scales by combining fine-grained and coarse-grained features, thus improving the capacity of the model to capture high-frequency variation characteristics. …”

“…However, this reduction does not necessarily prevent them from achieving considerable ecological success and becoming highly efficient colonizers. Here we investigated the purge hypothesis, which suggests that demographic bottlenecks may facilitate conditions (e.g., increased homozygosity and inbreeding) under which natural selection can purge deleterious mutations, thereby reducing genetic load. …”
