It is important that each agent does decision-making while configuring its own desirable dynamical characteristics and adapting to environmental changes. In conventional researches, the dynamics of each agent is modeled by neural network (NN) with static structure. Therefore, it is difficult for the agent to behave appropriately at time-varying conditions due to the static structure of NN. Thus, we propose a new decentralized adaptive control system (DACS) using an affine plus self-organizing fuzzy neural network (ASOFNN) for MAS, considering the consensus problem. Additionally, we give the proof of stability analysis of the proposed method theoretically, and the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by the computational simulations.","PeriodicalId":124317,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on System Science and Engineering (ICSSE)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125036769","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 order to perform the simulation, the modeling tool has to process the model. An important processing step is to determine the execution order of the elements in a model. This execution order is based on a sorted list of all semantically relevant model elements. Therefore, before simulation, Simulink® removes all model elements that only have a syntactic implication. In Simulink, the virtual subsystems are composite elements with no semantic bearing. Thus, Simulink performs a flattening model transformation that eliminates virtual subsystems. The work presented in this paper provides a novel algorithm for flattening composite elements in hierarchical models. Moreover, an optimized algorithm is also presented for Simulink models. With the implementation of these algorithms the level of abstraction of the model transformation can be raised. In this manner, a reusable, platform independent solution can be achieved for flattening Simulink subsystems.","PeriodicalId":124317,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on System Science and Engineering (ICSSE)","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123146442","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 accompany the demand of applying right cosmetics on face, multitudes of skin detectors emerged. Though small-scale skin detectors are easy to carry due to their lightweight and easy to use they need to contact the face by the metal part of the detector while examining. As photographic enhancements of the smart phones, taking and acquiring digital images become easier. Thus, this study uses smart phones to take facial skin images. Then, we can calculate the texture features, including contrast, entropy and inverse difference moment through gray level co-occurrence matrix. Finally, vertical, horizontal and diagonal texture features on the original gray image are found by Haar wavelet transform. After defining the six texture features of input and output membership functions of the skin types, the skin quality characteristics are inferred by the proposed fuzzy models. In order to reduce the computing time, we use principal component analysis method to discriminate texture features. The purpose is to examine the skin types with fewer features. With the six texture features from fuzzy inference results as a reference value, both the results from the principal component analysis and gray level co-occurrence matrix methods achieve the accuracy rates of 96.29% and 93.21%, respectively. These results verify that the proposed smart phone-based fuzzy models are effective for facial skin quality examination.","PeriodicalId":124317,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on System Science and Engineering (ICSSE)","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120956469","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 obtained results were applied to the investigation of systems' stability.

To start with, the hybrid object tracker uses PSO to search the objects in the beginning, taking advantage of the PSO for global optimization. Once the objects have been successfully found by PSO, the hybrid object tracker then switches to PF to continuously track the objects. To avoid the varying-size problem of the objects, Speeded Up Robust Features (SURF) is used to detect the object around its neighborhood in the video sequence for defining the real image size of the object for remodeling the target object by histogram. As a result, tracking speed can be maintained by the hybrid tracker using simple histogram model while circumventing the varying-size problem of the objects during the tracking process.","PeriodicalId":124317,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on System Science and Engineering (ICSSE)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133307322","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}
