One of the key technologies for future large-scale location-aware services covering a complex of multi-story buildings — e.g., a big shopping mall and a university campus — is a scalable indoor localization technique. In this paper, we report the current status of our investigation on the use of deep neural networks (DNNs) for scalable building/floor classification and floor-level position esti...

The pelvic floor musculature plays an important role in behaviors such as defecation, micturition, mating behavior, and vomiting. A recent positron emission tomography (PET) study revealed that structures belonging to the emotional motor system are involved in the control of the pelvic floor during micturition. However, there also exist brain structures involved in the voluntary motor control o...

The aim of this study was to compare the environmental impact of the straw-flow system for fattening pigs with the slatted-floor system by measuring pollutant gas emissions such as ammonia (NH3), nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2), manure nitrogen (N) content and emissions of water vapour (H2O). Three successive batches of 32 pigs were fattened. For each batch, pigs wer...

various aldoximes and ketoximes synthesis of corresponding aldehydes and ketones in the presence of sio2@feso4 nano composite as recoverable nano catalyst and nh2oh·hcl. the sio2@feso4 nano composite system was carried out between 10 to 15 min in oil bath (70-80 °c) under solvent-free condition in excellent yields in addition this protocol can be used for industrial scales. this method offers s...

This paper proposes a distributed manufacturing scheduling framework at the shop floor level. The shop floor is modeled as a collection of multiple workcells, each of which is modeled as a flexible manufacturing system. The framework consists of a distributed shop floor control structure, dynamic distributed scheduling algorithms, multi-agent system modeling of workcell, and service oriented in...

Solid wood floors are very common in interior decoration, and their color is an important indicator of product quality, selected order to achieve the overall aesthetic needed ensure consistency. In realize sorting solid based on depth, so that colors could be freely graded, one image acquisition system was built collect 108 floor images a set fast methods for depth developed. Among these, 10 we...
