This work presents the use of an artificial neural network (ANN) to classify RR time series from an ECG stress test. Four classes of RR time series were defined: very good, good, low quality and useless. We use a preprocessing stage to split input data vectors into NW data windows for which we compute the standard deviation of the RR interval (SDRR) to generate the input features vector of a multilayer perceptron network architecture. We introduce a saturation value S in order to limit SDRR values. 520 RR time series from 65 records of ECG stress test were analyzed. Experiments were performed to explore the influence of parameters S and NW . 40 subjects records are used in training and the remaining for testing. The classification results show a matching correlation ratio above 71%, which is higher than the correlation between two human experts. The main contribution of this work constitutes the preprocessing stage proposed for a stress test RR time series schema and an acceptable performance which does not depend on parameter NW .","PeriodicalId":305576,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE XXV International Conference on Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computing (INTERCON)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133039770","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}

With the rapid proliferation of internet and videogames, internet addiction and addiction to videogames has become a topic of interest among different professionals, scholars, organizations and the media in Peru. Despite the fact that previous research has found clear differences and demographic profiles for internet addiction and internet gaming disorder, to our knowledge, there have been no further reports on these associations between these variables in Peruvian gamers. In addition to this, the term \"internet addiction\" has always been associated with videogames in the Peruvian context. Therefore, the present study aimed to examine the extent of association between problematic internet use, gaming addiction, and time spent playing, depression, and anxiety. Methods: To examine these associations, Peruvian gamers completed the problematic internet use questionnaire (PIUQ), and problematic online gaming questionnaire (POGQ), as well as anxiety and depression subscales of the Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI). Results: As expected, results demonstrated significant associations between PIUQ, POGQ, anxiety, depression and amount of weekly gaming.

In the present work, a method of calculating surface temperatures from satellite images of Landsat TM and Landsat OLI (band 6 and band 10 respectively) for the Huaytapallana Mountain at the Mantaro valley is validated. Initially, the radiance of the upper part of the atmosphere (TOA) is extracted from the digital number (DN) values. The TOA radiance is then converted into surface radiance applying the Reference Channel Emissivity (RCE) method considering that the emissivity of the study area is constant (0.97, the glacial ice emissivity). The surface temperature is extracted after the surface radiance. Based on this data, the correlation was made from data from Google Earth Engine (EEFlux), showing a high correlation between 0.97 to 0.98.","PeriodicalId":305576,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE XXV International Conference on Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computing (INTERCON)","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115989666","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}

Instead of making a linearization according to an operation point, the control laws, i.e., the dq-axis stator voltages are composed by two terms. The first one is to compensate the nonlinearities of the PMSM. The second component of the control law is determined by a linear controller to get the angular position. Thus, the design of the controller becomes easier. Simulation results prove the accuracy and robustness of the proposed angular position controller.","PeriodicalId":305576,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE XXV International Conference on Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computing (INTERCON)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114888089","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}

Nevertheless, controlling a robot group behaviors is not a trivial task, since they need to process information suitably so those team goals are achieved in a systematic form. Previous work has not made a clear distinction between the role played by coordination and cooperation, or the importance of conformity in robot networks. In this paper, a distributed control scheme is presented wich considers consent variables. The variables values are set by the robots in a consensus way to coordinate common actions. Finally, robots cooperate each other using local interactions sharing system information. Bottom-Up methodology is used to develop the distributed control strategy, which has been validated using simulation and experimentation with real robots of the Robotarium platform, an accessible mobile robot testbeds. The results show that it is possible constructing collective be-haviors using a control scheme that organize the way in which the information is computed by robots in a network system. In particular, the Progressive Reduction behavior, developed for the Area Reduction task, show how robots can explore suspected areas of contamination with antipersonnel mines to detect them.","PeriodicalId":305576,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE XXV International Conference on Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computing (INTERCON)","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121708920","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}

However, the lack of tools for automatic synthesis is a major drawback. Asynchronous Finite State Machines are widely used in the control of asynchronous digital systems and are usually implemented as Huffman machines with fed-back outputs (HMFO). However, it can be implemented as Huffman Machines (HM) which has the advantage of better interaction with fast environments, reducing the cost of timing analysis and has potential for better latency time, compared to HMFO. Interestingly, state of the art tools like 3D and SAGAAS does not synthesize asynchronous circuits in HM architecture, only HMFO. Nevertheless both uses Extended Burst-Mode (XBM) specification as its input. This paper proposes an algorithm based on genetic algorithms for state assignment of XBM_HMs, which is important step in the synthesis. This paper also proposes a tools flow for automatic synthesis of XBM specifications in the HM architecture.","PeriodicalId":305576,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE XXV International Conference on Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computing (INTERCON)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117135016","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}
