Although this controller has been established as a control standard, still it has to cope with some difficulties. Tuning the parameters (proportional, integral and derivative gains) of a PID controller manually requires a large experience and can be a tedious task. In this work, we propose an optimization based approach to automatically tune these three parameters as the system is driven towards its desired behaviour. The parameters of the PID controller are tuned using a neural network (NN) with a radial basis (RB) activation function, while the parameters of the NN are optimized using a stochastic gradient descent (SGD) algorithm. This enables the system to learn online in realtime. Further, this method is tested in Simulink environment on a benchmark of the vibration suppression for a clamped-free flexible aluminum beam. The starting point for the controller design is the model of the beam obtained through the subspace model identification. Further on, using the NN the model update is performed along with the PID parameter optimization.","PeriodicalId":102785,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Electrical, Computer, Communications and Mechatronics Engineering (ICECCME)","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127618164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The system captured 2D positions of a hurdles athlete's body parts such as wrists, ankles, hips and knees from an image. For experiments, we recorded videos from a top-tier athlete in hurdling to infer motion timing and kinematic parameters. We also explore the performance of different feature extractorsin OpenPose in terms of accuracy and run-time.

Their energies and pulsewidths depend only on chromatic and modal dispersion of the fiber, and on the input laser beam coupling conditions. Whereas the soliton properties are independent of the input pulse duration. The generated multimode solitons are composed by non-degenerate modes. However, upon propagation over distances comprising several hundreds of meters, the multimode solitons naturally evolve into singlemode pulses. For this reason, walk-off solitons are metastable objects, which are irreversibly attracted by the fundamental mode of the fiber.","PeriodicalId":102785,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Electrical, Computer, Communications and Mechatronics Engineering (ICECCME)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122492503","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Measuring and assessing human performance is key to enhance and maintain maritime navigational safety. In order to address the above problem, there is a need to develop an efficient measurement and assessment tool for navigational competencies for various behaviors such as situational awareness, decision making, teamwork, and communication and influencing skills. Multiple forms of data is collected in a Navigation Bridge Simulator in a Bridge Team Scenario to conduct this research. The topic is especially relevant to improve the safety of maritime navigation in crowded waters such as the Singapore Strait. An effective AI-based competency assessment tool for safe navigation (AICATSAN) is developed to measure and assess navigational competence. Hybrid deep learning methods using eye trackers are employed to develop AICATSAN, which was assessed to produce accurate results with preliminary test data sample. Convolutional neural network (CNN) and long short-term memory (LSTM) networks are used for multi-modal, multi-feature and multisensory for recognition of complex and concurrent activity details. The AICATSAN is able to quickly analyze the human performance of a given navigational scenario. As an indicative assessment system to evaluate behavioral competence through the use of navigation simulator, this AICATSAN system will observe key indicators to analyze human behavioral competencies and facilitate the evaluation of navigational competence. It has the potential to be used for training, recruitment or promotion to the higher ranks.","PeriodicalId":102785,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Electrical, Computer, Communications and Mechatronics Engineering (ICECCME)","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126606167","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As time goes by and Spambots and APIs grow more accurate, the CAPTCHA tests have been constantly updated to stay relevant, but that has not happened with the audio CAPTCHA. There exists an audio CAPTCHA intended for the blind/visually impaired but many blind/visually impaired find it difficult to solve. We propose an alternative to the existing system, which would make use of unique sound samples layered with music generated through GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks) along with noise and other layers of sounds to make it difficult to dissect. The user has to count the number of times the unique sound was heard in the sample and then input that number. Since there are no letters or numbers involved in the samples, speech-to-text bots/APIs cannot be used directly to decipher this system.

This study demonstrates the effects of a magnetic liquid (ferrofluid) on a permanent magnet brushed direct current (PMDC) motor. The ferrofluid was applied by smearing it on the shaft of the motor. The maximum amount of ferrofluid was determined to the non-linearity of the characteristics of the motor. The experimental results showed that the ferrofluid affected the motor-operating parameter values, particularly speed and losses, offering an interesting potential to improve efficiency, which consequently results in energy savings. Some equations for the affected parameters have been presented, including the circuit theory. It was seen that by controlling the addition of ferrofluid, the most efficient flux motor parameters could be determined. Some dynamic calculations of PMDC motors are also mentioned, including the principles of magnetic circuits and field theory. Experimental verification by testing a PMDC motor confirmed the positive results.","PeriodicalId":102785,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Electrical, Computer, Communications and Mechatronics Engineering (ICECCME)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132269676","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
