In this article the issue of data based modeling is dealt with the help a network of uniform multivariate fuzzy classifiers. Within this framework the innovation consists in the specification of a hierarchical design strategy for such a network. Concretely, the two network specifying factors, namely the layout of the network structure and the classifier nodes configuration, will be addressed by...

One of the key requirements of a satellite cluster is to maintain formation flight among its physically distinct elements while at the same time being capable of collision avoidance among each other and external threats. This paper addresses the capability of clusters with tens and scores of satellites to perform the collision avoidance manoeuvre in the event of an external, kinetic impact thre...

background: diabetes mellitus is one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality all over the world. chronic high blood glucose is the root cause of developing future micro and macro vascular complications. in current study, we analyzed poorly controlled patients’ information by clustering method in order to find more homogenous sub-groups of patients for planning for further interv...

the process of spatial distribution of urban services in order to provide equitable access to opportunities and reduced regional disparities, and earning the highest citizen satisfaction are among the main challenges facing urban management. this requires knowledge of the current status of spatial distribution of public services in the city, followed by optimal resource allocation under varying...

We define a NP-hard clustered variant of the Set Covering Problem where subsets are partitioned into K clusters and a fixed cost is paid for selecting at least one subset in a given cluster. This variant can reformulate as a master problem various multi-commodity flow problems in transportation planning. We show that the problem is approximable within ratio (1+2)(e/e−1)H(q), where q is the maxi...

This paper introduces a new concept for flexible motion planning and control of industrial robots. Instead of a closed monolithic architecture, an open service-based framework is proposed. The services can be run hardwareindependent on a decentralized IT infrastructure (Cloud) allowing a fast reconfiguration of control modules and their multiple usage in different tasks. The services can be run...

Wide research has been carried out in this Wireless Sensor Networks to improve the lifetime of the sensor nodes in order to enhance the performance of the network. Clustering hierarchical structure is the base for the most of the existing methods which significantly reduces the energy consumption of each node, but it increases the communication burden of the cluster heads. In the proposed metho...

The paper contains description of a new clustering methodology that partitions data set into clusters, such that regression indetermination coefficient for data from each cluster is minimized. A clustering algorithm that realizes this methodology with genetic programming approaches, as well as, some experimental results are presented. The application of the algorithm for planning cellular telep...

Within the ramp-up phase of highly automated assembly systems, the planning effort forms a large part of production costs. Due to shortening product lifecycles, changing customer demands, and therefore an increasing number of ramp-up processes, these costs even rise. So assembly systems should reduce these efforts and simultaneously be flexible for quick adaption to changes in products and thei...
