This paper proposes a neural-network-based method for the computation of the configuration space for robotic manipulators. The configuration space can be obtained by repeatedly computing configuration space patterns for elementary obstacle primitives. For any manipulator, these patterns depend only on the distance between the base of the manipulator and the obstacle primitive. An RBF-network is...

The problem is said to be tractable if there exist constants c, α, β independent of q (but possibly dependent on μ and F) such that En(F , μ) ≤ cqαn−β. We explore different regions (including manifolds), function classes, and measures for which this problem is tractable. Our results include tractability theorems for integration with respect to non-tensor product measures, and over unbounded and...

In this paper, we deal with the problem of function approximation from a given set of input/output data. This problem consists of analyzing these training examples so that we can predict the output of the model given new inputs. We present a new method for function approximation of the I/O data using radial basis functions (RBFs). This approach is based on a new efficient method of clustering o...

This paper presents numerical solution of elliptic partial differential equations Poisson’s equation using a combination of logarithmic and multiquadric radial basis function networks. This method uses a special combination between logarithmic and multiquadric radial basis functions with a parameter r. Further, the condition number which arises in the process is discussed, and a comparison is m...

With the aim of classifying sperm whales, this report compares two methods that can use Gaussian functions, a radial basis function network, and support vector machines which were trained with two different approaches known as C-SVM and ν-SVM. The methods were tested on data recordings from seven different male sperm whales, six containing single click trains and the seventh containing a comple...

Finding a robust catalytic system for hydrogen production via dry reforming of methane (DRM) remains challenge. Herein, MNi0.9Zr1−xYxO3 (M = Ce, La, and La0.6Ce0.4; x 0.00, 0.05, 0.07, 0.09) catalyst was prepared by the sol–gel method, tested DRM characterized surface area porosity, X-ray diffraction, H2-temperature programmed reduction, thermogravimetry, transmission electron microscopy. In La...

Academy in Pakistan is a gendered space that manifests and nurtures various forms of inequalities. This paper examines women’s experiences working Pakistani academies focusing primarily on factors influencing their career progression. Data for this drawn from larger qualitative research the women academy. Phenomenological interviews were carried out with fourteen participants including professo...

in this paper we investigate a new notion of bases in hilbert spaces and similarto fusion frame theory we introduce fusion bases theory in hilbert spaces. we also introducea new de nition of fusion dual sequence associated with a fusion basis and show that theoperators of a fusion dual sequence are continuous projections. next we de ne the fusionbiorthogonal sequence, bessel fusion basis, hilbe...

The purpose of this study is to determine whether and how the use video-based learning resources by architecture students contributes development high-order cognitive abilities in light Bloom’s revised taxonomy, as well satisfied these are with integration into their coursework. Convenience sampling was used recruit participants who completed a two-phase questionnaire (n = 52) focus-group inter...

Cellular senescence, a state of permanent cell cycle arrest in response to endogenous and exogenous stimuli, triggers series gradual alterations structure, metabolism, function, as well inflammatory gene expression that nurtures low-grade proinflammatory milieu human tissue. A growing body evidence indicates an accumulation senescent neurons blood vessels stress aging the retina. Prolonged cell...
