However, the general consensus is that PAs still remain effective in habitat conservation. To assess the efficacy of landscape-level conservation, we examined landscape alterations in the Changbai Mountain Biosphere Reserve (CMBR), which was established in 1960 as a ...

A Riding Fuzzy Control System for a Mountain Agricultural Robot

A fuzzy control system was designed to command driving directions for a mountain agriculture robot. First, a fuzzy control system program was developed based on the scheme of the robot driving control system. Then, the core part of the system--the fuzzy controller--was designed. Finally, a system model was created and a simulation test was conducted through the application of the Fuzzy Toolbox ...
