Interesting similarities were also observed in the arousal curve patterns between different movies in the same classifications.","PeriodicalId":309548,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Humanoid, Nanotechnology, Information Technology, Communication and Control, Environment and Management (HNICEM)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125968772","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 robot network itself was built using four robot modules from the flexible and adaptable Robotis Bioloid platform. Interconnections were provided wirelessly through the infrared modules of the Bioloid platform, and through the 802.11b standard of the Lantronix WiPort wireless module platform. Feedback and central automated control were integrated in the system using image processing and vector-based algorithms inside the open-source programming environment called Processing. The main focus of the implementation was the modeling of a “platoon” system with two basic formations using four robots connected wirelessly: a train-like behavior and a horizontal or side-by-side assembly. Initial results provided an overview on the expected capabilities and limitations of such system: the apparent lack of response speed and precision compared to full-blown custom robot networks built from the ground up, but having the advantage of manipulating individual robot structure to fit specific purposes due to the flexible (construction and design-wise) nature of the Bioloid platform. Further results suggest that distance between the robots, battery level condition and light ambiance are important factors that may affect the system.","PeriodicalId":309548,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Humanoid, Nanotechnology, Information Technology, Communication and Control, Environment and Management (HNICEM)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126721076","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}

Due to the concept of independence, each swarm members are required to collect themselves together to perform a certain task. However the swarm faces different environments thus this behavior is very complex to accomplish. This is the reason why the researchers developed this paper for multi robotic systems.

Due to the complexity and uncertainty of the decision components and elements derived from literature, a proposed hybrid MCDM approach in the form of an integrated probabilistic fuzzy analytic network process (PROFUZANP) is presented. In the proposed method, analytic network process (ANP) handles complexity of the decision model. Fuzzy set theory is used to describe vagueness in decision-making which is carried out by eliciting judgment in pairwise comparisons using linguistic variables with corresponding triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs). Probability theory is used to handle randomness when aggregating experts' judgments. Results are reported in this paper.

Through collaboration with interns and licensed physical therapists (PTs), we conducted tests using these wearable sensors known as the inertial measurement unit (IMU) side-by-side their norm of using a static universal goniometer (UG). An Android-based portable system was demonstrated that could be used by PTs on the move. We explored the variations of the normal range of motion (ROM) in healthy uninjured individuals, following that the functional ROM is less stringent than the conventional criteria. We can show that using the system the patient can participate in developing their digital medical records, as well as in their own wellness program.","PeriodicalId":309548,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Humanoid, Nanotechnology, Information Technology, Communication and Control, Environment and Management (HNICEM)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131152994","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}

Any real-time inflows forming a 5-consecutive-day vector could serve as input to the regression process. Its predictive power as measured by correlation coefficient at 0.959 for observed and predicted inflows taken from blind test set as well as 0.925 from validation set, could provide model users better perspective and outlook with regard to reservoir inflow conditions 24 hours into the future.
