- Background: Serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) is a biomarker of neuronal damage that is used not only to monitor disease activity and response to drugs and to prognosticate disease course in people with multiple sclerosis on the group level. The absence of representative reference values to correct for physiological age-dependent increases in sNfL has limited the diagnostic use of this biomarker at an individual level. We aimed to assess the applicability of sNfL for identification of people at risk for future disease activity by establishing a reference database to derive reference values corrected for age and body-mass index (BMI). Furthermore, we used the reference database to test the suitability of sNfL as an endpoint for group-level comparison of effectiveness across disease-modifying therapies. Methods: For derivation of a reference database of sNfL values, a control group was created, comprising participants with no evidence of CNS disease taking part in four cohort studies in Europe and North America. We modelled the distribution of sNfL concentrations in function of physiological age-related increase and BMI-dependent modulation, to derive percentile and Z score values from this reference database, via a generalised additive model for location, scale, and shape. We tested the reference database in participants with multiple sclerosis in the Swiss Multiple Sclerosis Cohort (SMSC). We compared the association of sNfL Z scores with clinical and MRI characteristics recorded longitudinally to ascertain their respective disease prognostic capacity. We validated these findings in an independent sample of individuals with multiple sclerosis who were followed up in the Swedish Multiple Sclerosis registry. Findings: We obtained 10 133 blood samples from 5390 people (median samples per patient 1 [IQR 1–2] in the control group). In the control group, sNfL concentrations rose exponentially with age and at a steeper increased rate after approximately 50 years of age. We obtained 7769 samples from 1313 people (median samples per person 6·0 [IQR 3·0–8·0]). In people with multiple sclerosis from the SMSC, sNfL percentiles and Z scores indicated a gradually increased risk for future acute (eg, relapse and lesion formation) and chronic (disability worsening) disease activity. A sNfL Z score above 1·5 was associated with an increased risk of future clinical or MRI disease activity in all people with multiple sclerosis (odds ratio 3·15, 95% CI 2·35–4·23; p<0·0001) and in people considered stable with no evidence of disease activity (2·66, 1·08–6·55; p=0·034). Increased Z scores outperformed absolute raw sNfL cutoff values for diagnostic accuracy. At the group level, the longitudinal course of sNfL Z score values in people with multiple sclerosis from the SMSC decreased to those seen in the control group with use of monoclonal antibodies (ie, alemtuzumab, natalizumab, ocrelizumab, and rituximab) and, to a lesser extent, oral therapies (ie, dimethyl fumarate, fingolimod, siponimod, and teriflunomide). However, longitudinal sNfL Z scores remained elevated with platform compounds (interferons and glatiramer acetate; p<0·0001 for the interaction term between treatment category and treatment duration). Results were fully supported in the validation cohort (n=4341) from the Swedish Multiple Sclerosis registry. Interpretation: The use of sNfL percentiles and Z scores allows for identification of individual people with multiple sclerosis at risk for a detrimental disease course and suboptimal therapy response beyond clinical and MRI measures, specifically in people with disease activity-free status. Additionally, sNfL might be used as an endpoint for comparing effectiveness across drug classes in pragmatic trials.

- There is a lack of validated biomarkers for disability progression independent of relapse activity (PIRA) in multiple sclerosis (MS).ObjectiveTo determine how serum glial fibrillary acidic protein (sGFAP) and serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) correlate with features of disease progression vs acute focal inflammation in MS and how they can prognosticate disease progression.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsData were acquired in the longitudinal Swiss MS cohort (SMSC; a consortium of tertiary referral hospitals) from January 1, 2012, to October 20, 2022. The SMSC is a prospective, multicenter study performed in 8 centers in Switzerland. For this nested study, participants had to meet the following inclusion criteria: cohort 1, patients with MS and either stable or worsening disability and similar baseline Expanded Disability Status Scale scores with no relapses during the entire follow-up; and cohort 2, all SMSC study patients who had initiated and continued B-cell–depleting treatment (ie, ocrelizumab or rituximab).ExposuresPatients received standard immunotherapies or were untreated.Main Outcomes and MeasuresIn cohort 1, sGFAP and sNfL levels were measured longitudinally using Simoa assays. Healthy control samples served as the reference. In cohort 2, sGFAP and sNfL levels were determined cross-sectionally.ResultsThis study included a total of 355 patients (103 [29.0%] in cohort 1: median [IQR] age, 42.1 [33.2-47.6] years; 73 female patients [70.9%]; and 252 [71.0%] in cohort 2: median [IQR] age, 44.3 [33.3-54.7] years; 156 female patients [61.9%]) and 259 healthy controls with a median [IQR] age of 44.3 [36.3-52.3] years and 177 female individuals (68.3%). sGFAP levels in controls increased as a function of age (1.5% per year; P &lt; .001), were inversely correlated with BMI (−1.1% per BMI unit; P = .01), and were 14.9% higher in women than in men (P = .004). In cohort 1, patients with worsening progressive MS showed 50.9% higher sGFAP levels compared with those with stable MS after additional sNfL adjustment, whereas the 25% increase of sNfL disappeared after additional sGFAP adjustment. Higher sGFAP at baseline was associated with accelerated gray matter brain volume loss (per doubling: 0.24% per year; P &lt; .001) but not white matter loss. sGFAP levels remained unchanged during disease exacerbations vs remission phases. In cohort 2, median (IQR) sGFAP z scores were higher in patients developing future confirmed disability worsening compared with those with stable disability (1.94 [0.36-2.23] vs 0.71 [−0.13 to 1.73]; P = .002); this was not significant for sNfL. However, the combined elevation of z scores of both biomarkers resulted in a 4- to 5-fold increased risk of confirmed disability worsening (hazard ratio [HR], 4.09; 95% CI, 2.04-8.18; P &lt; .001) and PIRA (HR, 4.71; 95% CI, 2.05-9.77; P &lt; .001).Conclusions and RelevanceResults of this cohort study suggest that sGFAP is a prognostic biomarker for future PIRA and revealed its complementary potential next to sNfL. sGFAP may serve as a useful biomarker for disease progression in MS in individual patient management and drug development.

- Hemodynamic assessment is an integral part of the diagnosis and management of cardiovascular disease. Four-dimensional cardiovascular magnetic resonance flow imaging (4D Flow CMR) allows comprehensive and accurate assessment of flow in a single acquisition. This consensus paper is an update from the 2015 ‘4D Flow CMR Consensus Statement’. We elaborate on 4D Flow CMR sequence options and imaging considerations. The document aims to assist centers starting out with 4D Flow CMR of the heart and great vessels with advice on acquisition parameters, post-processing workflows and integration into clinical practice. Furthermore, we define minimum quality assurance and validation standards for clinical centers. We also address the challenges faced in quality assurance and validation in the research setting. We also include a checklist for recommended publication standards, specifically for 4D Flow CMR. Finally, we discuss the current limitations and the future of 4D Flow CMR. This updated consensus paper will further facilitate widespread adoption of 4D Flow CMR in the clinical workflow across the globe and aid consistently high-quality publication standards.

- We consider the bidirectional broadcast channel with common and confidential messages. We show that polar codes achieve the capacity of binary input symmetrical bidirectional broadcast channels with confidential messages, if one node's channel is a degraded version of the other node's channel.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The integration of multiple services such as the transmission of private, common, and confidential messages at the physical layer is becoming important for future wireless networks in order to increase spectral efficiency. In this paper, bidirectional relay networks are considered, in which a relay node establishes bidirectional communication between two other nodes using a decode-and-forward protocol. In the broadcast phase, the relay transmits additional common and confidential messages, which then requires the study of the bidirectional broadcast channel (BBC) with common and confidential messages. This channel generalizes the broadcast channel with receiver side information considered by Kramer and Shamai. Low complexity polar codes are constructed that achieve the capacity region of both the degraded symmetric BBC, and the BBC with common and confidential messages. The use of polar codes allows an intuitive interpretation of how to incorporate receiver side information and secrecy constraints as different sets of frozen bits at the different receivers for an optimal code design. In order to show that the constructed codes achieve capacity, a tighter bound on the cardinality of an auxiliary random variable used in the converse is found using a method by Salehi.

- With the emergence of cyber-physical systems (CPSs) in utility systems like electricity, water, and gas networks, data collection has become more prevalent. While data collection in these systems has numerous advantages, it also raises concerns about privacy as it can potentially reveal sensitive information about users. To address this issue, we propose a Bayesian approach to control the adversarial inference and mitigate the physical-layer privacy problem in CPSs. Specifically, we develop a control strategy for the worst-case scenario where an adversary has perfect knowledge of the user’s control strategy. For finite state-space problems, we derive the fixed-point Bellman’s equation for an optimal stationary strategy and discuss a few practical approaches to solve it using optimization-based control design. Addressing the computational complexity, we propose a reinforcement learning approach based on the Actor-Critic architecture. To also support smart meter privacy research, we present a publicly accessible “Co-LivEn” dataset with comprehensive electrical measurements of appliances in a co-living household. Using this dataset, we benchmark the proposed reinforcement learning approach. The results demonstrate its effectiveness in reducing privacy leakage. Our work provides valuable insights and practical solutions for managing adversarial inference in cyber-physical systems, with a particular focus on enhancing privacy in smart meter applications.

Design Framework for Privacy-Aware Demand-Side Management with Realistic Energy Storage Model
- 2021
-
Ingår i: IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid. - : Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). - 1949-3053 .- 1949-3061. ; 12:4, s. 3503-3513

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Demand-side management (DSM) is a process by which the user demand patterns are modified to meet certain desired objectives. Traditionally, DSM was utility-driven, but with an increase in the integration of renewable sources and privacy-conscious consumers, it also becomes a “consumer-driven" process. Promising theoretical studies have shown that privacy can be achieved by shaping the user demand using an energy storage system (ESS). In this paper, we present a framework for utility-driven DSM while considering the user privacy and the ESS operational cost due to its energy losses and capacity degradation. We propose an ESS model using a circuit-based and data-driven approach that can be used to capture the ESS characteristics in control strategy designs. We measure privacy leakage using the Bayesian risk of a hypothesis testing adversary and present a novel recursive algorithm to compute the optimal privacy control strategy. Further, we design an energy-flow control strategy that achieves the Pareto-optimal trade-off between privacy leakage, deviation of demand from a DSM target profile, and the ESS cost. With numerical experiments using real household data and an emulated lithium-ion battery, we show that the desired level of privacy and demand shaping performance can be achieved while reducing the ESS degradation.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- We study the optimal control problem of the maximum a posteriori (MAP) state sequence detection of an adversary using smart meter data. The privacy leakage is measured using the Bayesian risk and the privacy-enhancing control is achieved in real-time using an energy storage system. The control strategy is designed to minimize the expected performance of a non-causal adversary at each time instant. With a discrete-state Markov model, we study two detection problems: when the adversary is unaware or aware of the control. We show that the adversary in the former case can be controlled optimally. In the latter case, where the optimal control problem is shown to be non-convex, we propose an adaptive-grid approximation algorithm to obtain a sub-optimal strategy with reduced complexity. Although this work focuses on privacy in smart meters, it can be generalized to other sensor networks.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this work, we propose an optimal privacy-by-design strategy using an energy storage system (ESS) that is capable of shaping the user demand to follow a time-varying target profile. In addition, we consider the ESS usage cost due to its energy losses and capacity degradation. We measure the privacy leakage in terms of the Bayesian risk. The proposed strategy is computed by solving a multi-objective optimization problem using the Markov decision process framework. With numerical simulations using real household consumption data and a lithium-ion battery model, we study the trade-off between the achievable Bayesian risk, the variations in the user demand from the target profile and the energy storage cost. The results show that by trading-off some privacy, the variations in the user demand can be reduced while improving the battery lifetime.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) is the process of disaggregating total electricity consumption measured by a smart meter into individual appliances’ contributions. In this paper, we present a privacy control strategy that selectively filters appliances’ consumption from the smart meter measurements to hinder NILM disaggregation performance. The privacy controller uses charging and discharging operations of an energy storage to achieve desired smart meter measurements. We model the household consumption using both additive and difference factorial hidden Markov models and design a control strategy to minimize privacy leakage measured in terms of Bayesian risk due to maximum a posteriori detection. Due to the high computational complexity of the optimal control strategy, we propose a computationally efficient sub-optimal strategy. We evaluate the proposed approaches using the ECO data set and show their privacy improvements against the Viterbi disaggregation algorithm.

- Privacy-preserving smart meter control strategies proposed in the literature so far make some ideal assumptions such as instantaneous control without delay, lossless energy storage systems etc. In this paper, we present a one-step-ahead predictive control strategy using Bayesian risk to measure and control privacy leakage with an energy storage system. The controller estimates energy state using a three-circuit energy storage model to account for steady-state energy losses. With numerical experiments, the controller is evaluated with real household consumption data using a state-of-the-art adversarial algorithm. Results show that the state estimation of the energy storage system significantly affects the controller's performance. The results also show that the privacy leakage can be effectively reduced using an energy storage system but at the expense of energy loss.

Ingår i: 2019 IEEE Milan PowerTech. - : IEEE.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this paper, we present a degradation-aware privacy control strategy for smart meters by taking into account the capacity fade and energy loss of the battery, which has not been included previously. The energy management strategy is designed by minimizing the weighted sum of both privacy loss and total energy storage losses, where the weightage is set using a trade-off parameter. The privacy loss is measured in terms of Bayesian risk of an unauthorized hypothesis test. By making first-order Markov assumptions, the stochastic parameters of energy loss and capacity fade of the energy storage system are modelled using degradation maps. Using household power consumption data from the ECO dataset, the proposed control strategy is numerically evaluated for different trade-off parameters. Results show that, by including the degradation losses in the design of the privacy-enhancing control strategy, significant improvement in battery life can be achieved, in general, at the expense of some privacy loss.

Towards Realistic Smart Meter Privacy against Bayesian Inference
- 2023

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Smart meters, now an essential component of modern power grids, allow energy providers to remotely monitor users' energy consumption in near real-time. While this technology offers numerous advantages for energy management and system efficiency, it also poses significant privacy concerns. High-resolution energy consumption data can reveal sensitive information about users' routines and activities, thus potentially jeopardizing their privacy. In particular, research has demonstrated that Bayesian inference attacks can effectively disaggregate smart meter data to deduce household appliance states and subsequently obtain sensitive user information.This thesis investigates the use of energy storage systems to protect smart meter data privacy against Bayesian inference attacks. Although several methods have been proposed in the literature that employ energy storage systems for this purpose, many rely on ideal assumptions such as lossless energy storage systems. To address this issue, a data-driven energy storage model that considers energy losses and capacity degradation has been proposed. Privacy leakage is quantified in terms of Bayesian risk, and control strategies are devised to minimize Bayesian risk while accounting for the energy storage system's operational constraints and economic implications. The findings reveal that non-idealities in energy storage systems significantly affect the privacy-preserving performance of control strategies. Moreover, incorporating degradation losses in the design of privacy-enhancing control strategies considerably improves battery life, albeit with some privacy loss.Taking into account the non-idealities of energy storage, this thesis introduces novel privacy-preserving control strategies using various adversarial models, which are classified based on their knowledge of the control system. These models include controller-aware and controller-unaware adversaries employing sequential hypothesis testing or maximum a posteriori detection. The proposed control strategies are evaluated through numerical simulations using real data and emulated energy storage systems. Additionally, the thesis provides a reference dataset of appliance power consumption, featuring detailed electrical measurements to support future smart meter privacy research. In summary, this work offers valuable insights and practical solutions for managing adversarial inference in cyber-physical systems, with potential applications extending to other sensor networks beyond smart meters.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this work, a complete biometrics identification and authentication system considered in [1] is implemented. In the considered system, polar codes are applied and binary symmetric memoryless channels are used for noisy enrollment and observation. The fundamental limits can be achieved with sufficiently long block length for iid binary source sequence. Fingerprints are used as the biometric source and an autoencoder is designed for pre-processing so that images are compressed to nearly uniformly distributed binary sequences with similar correlation and entropy properties to iid binary sequence. The identification and authentication system with generated secret key in [1] is implemented and simulated using pre-processed fingerprints as biometric source and polar code-based design. The proposed system design approach is systematic and flexible in choosing the optimal trade-off. The results show that identification error rates become smaller with longer code length and when the successive cancellation list algorithm is applied. Thus, it is shown by these first promising experiments that polar codes can be used in real identification and authentication systems.

- Remote stabilization of linear dynamical systems over Gaussian networks is studied. Two linear time invariant systems (plants) with arbitrary distributed initial states are monitored by two separate sensors. The sensors communicate their measurements to two remotely situated controllers over a Gaussian interference, possibly with the assistance from a relay node. The common goal of the sensors, relay, and controllers is to stabilize the plants in mean-square sense. An optimized linear delay-free sensing and control scheme is proposed and sufficient conditions for mean-square stability are derived. These conditions reveal the relationship between plants' stability and communication channel parameters. It is shown that the proposed linear scheme can significantly outperform the existing estimation based control scheme in multi-user Gaussian networks.

A delay-free linear sensing and control strategy is proposed and an achievable stability region is derived. It shows that the stability region can be significantly enlarged by deploying a relay node in such a multi-user Gaussian channels. Furthermore we observe that the separation structure between estimation and control is inadequate in high interference regime.

- The remote stabilization of a first order linear plant over a wireless channel is studied. The plant is assumed to have an arbitrary distributed initial state and the wireless channel between the plant's sensor and the controller is modeled as a white Gaussian channel subject to an external interference signal. In order to combat the interference a dedicated sensor (relay) node is deployed adjacent to the interferer, which relays the interference information to both the plant's sensor and the controller. The sensor and the controller utilize this information to mitigate interference. We use delay-free linear sensing and control scheme in order to derive sufficient conditions for mean square stability. The achievable stability region significantly enlarges with the relay assisted interference cancelation scheme. Moreover the effect of interference can be completely eliminated if the encoder knows all the future values of the interference.

On the strong converse for the broadcast capacity region of two-phase bidirectional relaying

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In our previous work we determined the weak capacity region for the broadcast phase of two-phase bidirectional relay channel. It turned out that the set of achievable rates obtained by optimizing over the two communication phases exceeds that obtained by using the network coding principle, i.e. by applying XOR to the decoded messages. In this paper we supplement our result by a proof of the strong converse with respect to the maximum error probability to the coding theorem for the broadcast phase. This result implies that the capacity region of that phase remains constant for a certain range of values of average error parameters [epsilon(1), epsilon(2)].
