Pathway Interaction Database (PID) (http://pid.nci.nih.gov/) provides interaction data of pathways in several formats (XML and BioPAX). Here we parsed the PID XML format data (ftp://ftp1.nci.nih.gov/pub/PID/XML/). Data stored in PID XML file can be divided into four levels: pathway level, interaction level, node level and gene/compound level. The relationship between four levels is visualized i...

Our objective is to apply the fractional PID controller to enhance the system control performances. Unlike Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller, there is no systematic and yet rigor design or tuning method existing for this PID controller. In this paper a method to design PID controller is presented. The basic ideas of the tuning method are based, in the first place, on the convent...

Editorial Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is the most important complication of sexually transmitted chlamydial infections, causing major medical, social, and economic problems. PID is an ascending infection, with well over half of the cases caused by Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Neisseria gonorrhoeae (GC), or both. However, other microorganisms representing abnormal vaginal flora, such as tho...

This article presents the experimental results when comparing the Controllers PID Classic, Nonlinear PID and Fuzzy Gain Scheduling PID used in position controllers, for the tuning of the Classical PID was used the second method

In this study, trajectory control of the Variable Loaded Servo (VLS) system is performed by using a Fuzzy Logic based Iterative Learning Control (ILC) method. In the study, a Iterative Learning PID (IL-PID) Controller is used as the iterative learning control structure. Also, a fuzzy adjustment mechanism has been added to the control system for specify the initial parameter of the IL-PID contro...

The direct-drive pump control system has been gradually applied to the industrial control field due to its high control precision, fast response, small throttle loss and compact structure. This paper adopts the fuzzy PID control method to resolve the hydraulic cylinder position servo control of direct-drive pump control system. The system model and fuzzy PID control algorithm was established by...
