A model of human lower limb along with body has been drawn having a presumed body height and body mass index. Different ranges of joint angles of human legs and body have been taken to simulate the sit-to-stand motion. The kinematic analysis is done by varying joint angles over time. The dynamic studies have been carried out for different joints. Torque and power consumption have been calculate...

blind source separation technique separates mixed signals blindly without any information on the mixing system. in this paper, we have used two evolutionary algorithms, namely, genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization for blind source separation. in these techniques a novel fitness function that is based on the mutual information and high order statistics is proposed. in order to evalu...

Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) are driven by two energy convertors, i.e., an Internal Combustion (IC) engine and an electric machine. To make powertrain of HEV as efficient as possible, proper management of the energy elements is essential. This task is completed by HEV controller, which splits power between the IC engine and Electric Motor (EM). In this paper, a Genetic-Fuzzy control strategy...

One important issue in a machining robotic cell is the location of the workpiece with respect to the robot. The feasibility of the task, the quality of the final work and the energy consumption, just to mention a few, are all dependent upon it. This can be formulated as an optimization problem where the objective functions are chosen in order to meet desired perf...

This paper presents the application of reinforcement learning in automatic analog IC design. In this work, the Multi-Objective approach by Learning Automata is evaluated for accommodating required functionalities and performance specifications considering optimal minimizing of MOSFETs area and power consumption for two famous CMOS op-amps. The results show the ability of the proposed method to ...
