This letter studies real-time collaborative robot (cobot) handling, where the cobot maneuvers an object under human dynamic gesture commands. Enabling commands is useful when needs to avoid direct contact with or handled by robot. However, key challenge lies in heterogeneity behaviors and stochasticity perception of gestures, which requires handling policy be adaptable robust. To address these ...

This paper is in search of designing the cellular manufacturing systems (CMSs) under dynamic and flexible environment. CM is proper for small-to-medium lot production environment that helps the companies to produce variable kind of productions with at least scraps. The most important benefits of CM are decline in material handling, reduction in work-in-process, reduction in set-up time, increme...

The dramatic increasing of sea-freight container transportations and the developing trend for using containers in the multimodal handling systems through the sea, rail, road and land in the present market cause some challenges to the general managers of container terminals such as increasing demand, competitive situation, new investments and expansion of new activities and the need to use new m...

This paper presents two novel approaches for uncertainty estimation adapted and extended the multi-link bus travel time problem. The is modeled directly as part of recurrent artificial neural networks, but using fundamentally different approaches: one based on Deep Quantile Regression other Bayesian network. Both use a network to predict multiple steps into future, handle time-dependent differe...
