In particular, it is proposed the use of the SCoMR-FOPI procedure as the controller tuning method for an unmanned aerial vehicle's propulsion unit. In this framework, both the Hermite-Biehler and Pontryagin theorems are used to predefine a stability region for the controller. Several simulations were conducted in order to try to answer the questions — is the FOPI controller good enough to be an alternative to more complex FOPID controllers? In what circumstances can it be advantageous over the ubiquitous PID? How robust this fractional-order controller is regarding the parametric uncertainty of considered propulsion unit model?","PeriodicalId":189753,"journal":{"name":"2017 22nd International Conference on Methods and Models in Automation and Robotics (MMAR)","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130836397","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}

Commonly used artificial intelligence algorithms in recent years have also proved to be ineffective in solving a large group of extremely difficult instances of various problems. In the work we present some empirical methods of exploration of solution space in optimization problems whose solutions are represented by permutations. While sampling the set of permissible solutions we designate the histogram of the frequency of occurrence of local minima and on this basis we verify the statistical hypothesis concerning the (normal) distribution of occurrence of these minima. Due to this process we can flexibly change the “radius” of the searched area. Computational experiments performed on examples of the job shop problem are promising and inspire to conduct further research in this direction.","PeriodicalId":189753,"journal":{"name":"2017 22nd International Conference on Methods and Models in Automation and Robotics (MMAR)","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126460471","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}

For applications on a machine the parameters of the mechanical resonances differ from workpiece to workpiece and thus cannot be calculated a priori. Adaptive notch filters can dampen these unknown resonances online. In this paper an online mechanical resonance frequency identification algorithm and online notch filter depth tuning algorithm are presented which will be processed in a closed loop control system with a control frequency of 32 kHz in software. The performance of these algorithms is shown on a test axis and on a round table with a direct torque motor on a machine. It will furthermore be shown that multiple resonances present on the machine can be damped subsequently and the controller gains can be increased to improve the overall tracking performance.","PeriodicalId":189753,"journal":{"name":"2017 22nd International Conference on Methods and Models in Automation and Robotics (MMAR)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122442596","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 feedforward part of the controller is designed by applying a flatness-based approach for hyperbolic PDEs to a second-order quasilinear model of the pneumatic system. The stabilizing feedback is derived by the application of a recently developed backstepping approach for coupled PDE-ODE systems to a different, more simple, linear model of the line. In simulations, the tracking controller is used to asymptotically stabilize a complex quasilinear third-order distributed parameter model of the pneumatic transmission line along a desired trajectory. This complex model has previously been shown to accurately reproduce the behavior of the pneumatic test bench considered.","PeriodicalId":189753,"journal":{"name":"2017 22nd International Conference on Methods and Models in Automation and Robotics (MMAR)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128988998","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 research was carried out with the use of database of over 10 000 images representing skin lesions: benign and malignant. Because of an uneven number of images representing different classes of lesions, the up-sampling of underrepresented class was applied.
