The objective of the work presented here is to develop a low cost active above knee prosthetic device exploiting bipedal robotics technology which will work utilizing the available biological motor control circuit properly integrated with a Central Pattern ...
In this paper we present results of computational experiments where multi-objective algorithms were used to tune a controller for blind movements in a room of the LESO experimental building. The blind controller which is based on fuzzy logic was optimized ...
This paper presents the results of computational experiments where multi-objective algorithms were used to tune a controller for blind movements in a residential building and a room of the LESO (Solar Energy and Building Physics Laboratory) experimental bu ...
Among the driving processes responsible for riparian forest dynamics the species-specific impact of flooding on the development of woody plants plays a key role-particularly for lowland rivers. Only a few of the forest succession models currently in use in ...
Trajectory data is of crucial importance for a vast range of applications involving analysis of moving objects behavior. Unfortunately, the extraction of relevant knowledge from trajectory data is hindered by the lack of semantics and the presence of error ...
The restructuring of the electricity supply industry (ESI) has introduced new actors and market mechanisms. Electricity prices are more market oriented and fluctuate greatly. These changes bring about more uncertainties and risks to the market participants ...
Maintaining and developing competitive advantages in a constantly changing market require the creation and exploitation of a network of adequate competences. Competence management necessitates both clean formalization and evaluation of the pertinence of co ...
We present decision procedures for logical constraints that support reasoning about collections of elements such as sets, multisets, and fuzzy sets. Element membership in such collections is given by a characteristic function from a finite universe (of unk ...
Product end-of-life treatment is unavoidable, no matter how well the product is designed. European regulations becoming stringent regarding the disposal of products, emphasis on end-of-life (EOL) issues at the conceptual design stage gained in importance. ...
An application of fuzzy logic based control for power systems governing multiple flexible alternating current transmission system (FACTS) devices is described here. Sufficiently accurate relations have been derived to determine setpoints of FACTS devices u ...
