The Scarabs Team robot (Ringo) was designed and built by a team of high school students on a limited budget. The goal was to keep the design simple yet easy for a single human operator to control. The team uses a custom joystick interface to control robot movement using a PC. A Linuxbased camera provides video to the operator and passes serial commands from the PC to the robot. The goals of the...

Generalized Quasilinearization Method for Coincidences Adriana Buică and Radu Precup Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science Babeş-Bolyai University 3400 Cluj, Romania [email protected], [email protected] Abstract An abstract unified theory of both monotone iterative and generalized quasilinearization methods is presented for operator equations of coincidence type in ordered Ban...

We consider a numerical method to verify the existence and uniqueness of the solutions of nonlinear hyperbolic problems with guaranteed error bounds. Using a C 1 nite element solution and an inequality constituting a bound on the norm of the inverse operator of the linearized operator, we numerically construct a set of functions which satisfy the hypothesis of Banach's xed point theorem for a c...

Researchers have been applying artificial/computational intelligence (AI/CI) methods to computer games. In this research field, further researchesare required to compare AI/CI methods with respect to each game application. In thispaper, we report our experimental result on the comparison of evolution strategy, genetic algorithm and their hybrids, applied to evolving controller agents for MarioA...

Medical image segmentation is a frequent processing step in image understanding and computer aided diagnosis. In this paper, we propose developing on the range operator in image segmentation using depending on dermatology infection. Three different block size are utilized on the range operator and the developing ones to enhance the behavior of the segmentation process of medical images. We prop...

This material contains the description of instrumental technique of operative assessment of the mental condition of computer-aided control systems operator. The assessment is based on the study of processes of formation and functioning of mental dynamic images when an operator becomes involved in an activity on the basis of observation by perception. The data concerning the structure and dynami...

bstract. We propose a solution for the computer-aided recontruction of strip-cut shredded documents. First of all, the visual conent of the strips is automatically extracted and represented by a umber of numerical features. Usually, the pieces of different pages ave been mixed. A grouping of the strips belonging to a same page s thus realized by means of a clustering operator, to ease the suces...

The current primary use of the EEG is in clinical applications. However, because the EEG involves conceptually simple instrumentation, is relatively safe, and inherently noninvasive, it is well worth investigating for possible use in other applications. Specifically, if it were possible for a human operator to reliably control some aspect of his/her EEG, a direct humancomputer interface could b...

Most shift operator-based adaptive algorithms exhibit poor numerical behavior when the input discrete time process is obtained from a continuous time process by fast sampling. This includes the shift operator based least squares lattice algorithm. In this paper, we develop a delta least squares lattice algorithm. This algorithm has low computational complexity compared to the delta Levinson RLS...
