In this paper, we use develop a CRT system to assess the physical security of any building, provided the building is designed with Building Information Models (BIM). BIMs are similar to 3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) models but with the addition of extra layers of information on the building system and components. Through a demonstration attack on a facility, this paper shows how a CRT approach to physical security assessment leads to a deeper and wider analysis of the building. The Red Team attacks every room under varying capabilities. The Blue Team analyses the attack data and strengthens the defences against further attack. Each attack-defend cycle yields a rich set of data that can be analysed by the user. We show that our algorithm performs at O(KLn(m+nlogn)) time. We present the effectiveness of our system based on recent developments in physical security assessment.","PeriodicalId":183401,"journal":{"name":"The 4th Annual IEEE International Conference on Cyber Technology in Automation, Control and Intelligent","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125760968","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 rhythm motion controller is modeled as motor neurons and modulated by global motion feedback, joints coordination feedback and joint angle feedback. The torso attitude controller is designed to maintain a desired torso attitude. Simulation results show that the proposed walking strategy not only has the ability to suppress the bifurcation phenomenon, but also has a good robustness against unexpected external pushes. The effectiveness of the proposed method was confirmed by walking experiments of a planar biped robot which is actuated by pneumatic muscles.","PeriodicalId":183401,"journal":{"name":"The 4th Annual IEEE International Conference on Cyber Technology in Automation, Control and Intelligent","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115857859","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 this paper, we discuss the challenges in general NILM system with methods implemented. We focus on models applied in key steps, which are “event detection” and “load recognition”. Approaches in residential and commercial buildings are evaluated, where these two typical applications have gained lot attentions recently. The challenges in commercial building are explored and studied, and potential solution and research direction are discussed.

Laser interferometry guidance methodology is utilized in the assembly task to calibrate the geometrical characteristics (cylinder surfaces, end points and axes) of parts, and also to eliminate the uncertainty of position and orientation due to the flexible grippers, thus enhancing the absolute positioning accuracy of the assembly system.

In order to improve both efficiency and quality of the painting line, the ability to simulate the paint deposition on a painting line becomes very desirable to the users.

Thus, learning to use tool requires robot to determine casual dependencies that exist among the spatial constraints of the environment, desired effects, functional features of the tool, actions and structural constraints of the tool. But learning of these casual dependencies by performing tool manipulation tasks using self-exploration or pre-programming by user is computationally expensive and resource intensive process. Thus, to address such a problem, learning of tool use in an online, incremental and interactive manner is proposed, where robots learn tool-use using trial-and-error-and-interaction loop. To deal with uncertainties in the domain knowledge, robot learning and inference process, probabilistic semantics of Bayesian network(BN) is used. BN allows making probabilistic queries to human user based on internal state of the robot and also allows incorporating user feedback with a degree of confidence. The concept of interaction based learning and experimental scenarios are presented.","PeriodicalId":183401,"journal":{"name":"The 4th Annual IEEE International Conference on Cyber Technology in Automation, Control and Intelligent","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129756980","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}

One critical step for the offline programming is that the robot cell needs to be calibrated first before the programs can be used in real world.

This is mainly due to the undesired change of parametrization during evolution. In this paper, we propose a new tangential diffusion term to compensate this undesired change. As a result, the parametrization will converge to a parametrization that is proportional to the natural parametrization which implies that the control points of the contour are uniformly distributed. We theoretically prove that this tangential diffusion term is bounded and therefore numerically stable. Several experiments were conducted and verified the feasibility of the proposed tangential diffusion force.","PeriodicalId":183401,"journal":{"name":"The 4th Annual IEEE International Conference on Cyber Technology in Automation, Control and Intelligent","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134057344","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}
