Fuzzy logic theory is a mathematical theory. Based on fuzzy set theory, it also uses intermediate values. The fuzzy logic that emerged in 1965 is used in many fields. In the production of pacemakers, in the production of artificial organs, in many electronic devices, company efficiency estimation, etc. situations are used. Fuzzy logic, which is frequently used in the solution of problems that occur in uncertain situations such as quality assessment in recent years, is one of the artificial intelligence methods. With the help of machines, people-specific data and experiences are studied using the fuzzy logic approach. In this study, by using Matlab Fuzzy Toolbox, it was aimed to design a system that gives information about the breeding performances of cows. The expert system was designed based on the optimal values under the ideal conditions specified in the literature. The architecture of the system presented in this paper is designed as three input parameters and one output. The designed system was tested with 100 sample values. Afterwards, expert results were evaluated and system decisions were compared. The success of the decision support system was 94%. As a result, the reproductive efficiency of cows can be determined with this designed system. With this determination, the handling or disposal of cows can be determined.","PeriodicalId":120305,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Mathematics Electronics and Computers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115934521","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 hourglass network has been used in many researches to achieve good performance in human pose estimation problems. For human pose estimation problem, not only high-level features but also low-level features are important for understanding the whole human body. However, the vanilla hourglass network has the problem of passing only high-level features to the next stack. Therefore, we propose a network structure that can solve the problems of the vanilla hourglass by using an additional skip connection. The proposed skip connection improves network performance by passing relative low-level features to the next stack. In addition, the skip connection is a simple element-wise Sum operation, so there is no increase in the number of parameters. In this work, we use the well-known human pose estimation data set, MPII, to evaluate the proposed method. We conducted experiments to evaluate the objective performance of the proposed method, and it was confirmed through this evaluation that the proposed method improves the performance of human pose estimation of the vanilla hourglass network.","PeriodicalId":120305,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Mathematics Electronics and Computers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130545361","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}

To use these payload estimators in the real-time applications, accurate position and velocity information of the system are required. In this paper, first recently proposed sliding-mode observers (SMOs) are designed and compared for velocity estimation of a nonlinear servo system. Second, a parameter estimation based on sliding-mode super-twisting approach is designed to estimate unknown and varying parameter for a class of nonlinear systems. The convergence property of observers is considered using Lyapunov stability method. In the applications, the constant and varying payloads of the servo system have been estimated using the designed method and compared with Extended-Kalman Filter (EKF). In the final section, artificial noises with different SNR are applied to the measurement signal. When the less amplitude of noise signal is applied, second order SMO estimated the states and the payload better than EKF. However, EKF provides much better estimation results than second order SMO for large amplitude of noise signals. For the sake of generalization, second order SMO is a fast and robust observer for small noise cases. In addition, the filtering property of EKF has still importance for large noise cases.","PeriodicalId":120305,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Mathematics Electronics and Computers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114130947","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}

In multidimensional warehouses with many constraints such as weight, volume, product compatibility, etc., storage and retrieval processes are complex optimization problems that need to be solved. Considering the number of constraints, the solution to the storage and retrieval problems with traditional algorithms take a long time. Meta-heuristic algorithms are frequently used in the solution of many complex optimization problems as they can provide acceptable solutions in a short time. In this study, the Genetic algorithm which is one of the popular meta-heuristic methods was used to solve this problem, and the A-star algorithm was used to travel the shortest path between the shelves. A three-dimensional warehouse with operational constraints was designed. Storage and retrieval orders containing a different number of pallets were produced randomly to perform warehouse product flow, and some of these orders were assumed as storage requests and the remainder were retrieval requests. Results show that the proposed approach is capable of finding effective solutions for storage and retrieval problems with operational constraints in a short time.","PeriodicalId":120305,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Mathematics Electronics and Computers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114374307","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}

Due to unmodeled dynamics, unknown and external disturbances, the performance of controllers based on these models are degraded for the accurate control. Therefore, robust controllers are need especially for the applications on patients. Inflammation, the cause of many complex biological phenomena and diseases, is a nonlinear process that is difficult to control. In this paper, continuous-time sliding-mode controller has been designed for the control of acute inflammation response (AIR) and antibacterial drug infusion under external disturbances both for septic and aseptic cases. Sliding-mode controller (SMC) is mostly used to control nonlinear systems against external disturbances and parametric uncertainties. Beside the control signal generation, we propose constraints on the control signals based on the clinical experiences such that the applied control signal is suitable for the health and improves the performance of the controller. Due to the multiple equilibrium point on the behavior of the acute inflammation response, it is difficult to design such model-based controllers without input constraints. In the numerical applications, septic death case and aseptic death case with disturbances are controlled and acceptable performances are obtained for future clinical applications.","PeriodicalId":120305,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Mathematics Electronics and Computers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122688281","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 undesired effects like loss of hydraulic performance, erosion, vibration and noise may occur because of the vortex in pump systems. It is important to detect and prevent vortex for the economic life and efficiency of the agriculture pump. The image processing and neuro-fuzzy based novel model is proposed for the detection of a vortex in the deep well pump used in the agriculture system with this paper. The used images and data submergence, flow rate, the diameter of the pipe, power consumption, pressure values and noise values- is acquired from an experimental pump. The proposed approach consists of three steps; Neuro-Fuzzy Learning, Image Processing and Neuro-Fuzzy Testing. In the first step, the eighty-two data have employed for the training process of the Neuro-Fuzzy. Then, the images derived from a camera placed near the experimental pump are used to detect vortex in the image processing step. Finally, the relevant data to vortex cases have employed for the testing process of the Neuro-Fuzzy. The result of this study demonstrates that image processing and neuro-fuzzy based design can be successfully used to detect vortex formation. This paper has provided novel contributions in the vortex detection issue such as find out vortex cases by using image processing and Neuro-Fuzzy. The image processing method has shed light on the studies to be done in the classification of vortexes and the measurement of their strength.","PeriodicalId":120305,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Mathematics Electronics and Computers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123596467","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}
