The classical control strategies, namely the PI and the PID controllers tunned using the Ziegler-Nichols method, were approached. The system performances were improved using an adaptive mechanism to compute their optimal parameters and a comparison between the results obtained between those methods is presented. The chemical exchange process between the carbamate and the carbon dioxide taking place, it results the enriched 13C isotope. This process is a distributed parameters one, depending on the time constant and on the position in the column's height, and it can be simulated after determining an analytical solution when the process is working in the transitory regime. The control strategies require the implementation of the process modelling – it is desired to reach the 13C isotope concentration by using an optimal amount of monoethanolamine solution, the input flow. The adaptive mechanism consists of a PI controller which determines the proper time constants of the two controllers so the control of the 13C isotope concentration is possible in any point of height in the separation column, improving the performances of the system by reducing the settling time – if the concentration suffers variations at certain moments of time, the adaptive mechanism is also capable of settling with the new requirements.","PeriodicalId":220845,"journal":{"name":"2022 26th International Conference on System Theory, Control and Computing (ICSTCC)","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128023449","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 purpose of this paper is to present the need for a developed surveillance system that has the role of regaining their independence through artificial intelligence. The system is based on a unique concept that involves the use of artificial intelligence to recognize human activity in video. The system identifies the times when the monitored person is feeding or hydrating and reminds them by sound messages that they forgot to eat, drink or eat too much. It also allows for the remote supervision and management of the nutrition program by a caregiver. The paper includes the study, search, training and use of models and algorithms specific to the field of computer vision in order to classify images, detect objects in images and recognize human activity in video. The study shows that artificial intelligence used to help people with Alzheimer's is a new concept, but a real help for both them and their caregivers.","PeriodicalId":220845,"journal":{"name":"2022 26th International Conference on System Theory, Control and Computing (ICSTCC)","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124429287","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}

While capable of learning correlations and relationships among complex datasets, neural network training and validation are often tedious and time-consuming, especially for large, high-dimensional datasets, given that sufficient models should be run through the validation pipeline so as to adequately cover the hyperparameter space. In order to address this problem, we propose a weight adjustment method for improving training times when searching for the optimal neural network architecture by incorporating a knowledge transfer step into the corresponding pipeline. This involves learning weight features from a trained model and using them to improve the training times of a subsequent one. Considering a sequence of candidate neural networks with different hyperparameter values, each model, once trained, serves as a source of knowledge for the next one, resulting in improved overall training times. We test our approach on dataset of various sizes, where we obtain reduced total training times, especially when small learning rates are used for finely-tuned convergence.","PeriodicalId":220845,"journal":{"name":"2022 26th International Conference on System Theory, Control and Computing (ICSTCC)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133744635","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 both cases, the correct classification of the tissue where the measuring contacts are inserted is needed during the stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG). Most of the tissue classification procedures rely on imaging. In this paper a system identification based automatic classifier is proposed using previously proposed non-parametric and parametric methods for single contact tissue classification. By combining both identification methods, poorly classified contacts can be eliminated, and overall contact classification can be improved, especially for the parametric classifier. The proposed method can be either used in combination with imaging methods, or it could be used to help select contacts to be recorded during SEEG Investigation.","PeriodicalId":220845,"journal":{"name":"2022 26th International Conference on System Theory, Control and Computing (ICSTCC)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132714379","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}
