  1. Abstract Structures operating in high-rate dynamic environments, such as hypersonic vehicles, orbital space infrastructure, and blast mitigation systems, require microsecond (μs) decision-making. Advances in real-time sensing, edge-computing, and high-bandwidth computer memory are enabling emerging technologies such as High-rate structural health monitoring (HR-SHM) to become more feasible. Due to the time restrictions such systems operate under, a target of 1 millisecond (ms) from event detection to decision-making is set at the goal to enable HR-SHM. With minimizing latency in mind, a data-driven method that relies on time-series measurements processed in real-time to infer the state of the structure is investigated in this preliminary work. A methodology for deploying LSTM-based state estimators for structures using subsampled time-series vibration data is presented. The proposed estimator is deployed to an embedded real-time device and the achieved accuracy along with system timing are discussed. The proposed approach has shown potential for high-rate state estimation as it provides sufficient accuracy for the considered structure while a time-step of 2.5 ms is achieved. The Contributions of this work are twofold: 1) a framework for deploying LSTM models in real-time for high-rate state estimation, 2) an experimental validation of LSTMs running on a real-time computing system.

  2. We experimentally characterize the dynamics of soliton explosions in a transient chaotic state between a single and double pulsing state, as well as periodic explosions induced by soliton collisions in a dual wavelength soliton state. These explosions occurring in a thulium-doped linear fiber laser with net anomalous dispersion are characterized with real-time measurements based on a modified time-stretched dispersive Fourier transform method relying on second-harmonic generation.

  3. Time-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (TR-XPS) is used in a simulation study to monitor the excited state intramolecular proton transfer between oxygen and nitrogen atoms in 2-(iminomethyl)phenol. Real-time monitoring of the chemical bond breaking and forming processes is obtained through the time evolution of excited-state chemical shifts. By employing individual atomic probes of the proton donor and acceptor atoms, we predict distinct signals with opposite chemical shifts of the donor and acceptor groups during proton transfer. Details of the ultrafast bond breaking and forming dynamics are revealed by extending the classical electron spectroscopy chemical analysis to real time. Through a comparison with simulated time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy at the valence level, the distinct advantage of TR-XPS is demonstrated thanks to its atom specificity.

  4. Data streaming has many applications in network monitoring, web services, e-commerce, stock trading, social networks, and distributed sensing. This paper introduces a new problem of real-time burst detection in flow spread, which differs from the traditional problem of burst detection in flow size. It is practically significant with potential applications in cybersecurity, network engineering, and trend identification on the Internet. It is a challenging problem because estimating flow spread requires us to remember all past data items and detecting bursts in real time requires us to minimize spread estimation overhead, which was not the priority in most prior work. This paper provides the first efficient, real-time solution for spread burst detection. It is designed based on a new real-time super spreader identifier, which outperforms the state of the art in terms of both accuracy and processing overhead. The super spreader identifier is in turn based on a new sketch design for real-time spread estimation, which outperforms the best existing sketches.
