In this paper, a dual system consisting of two 5 DOF (RRRRR) robot manipulators is considered as a cooperative robotic system used to manipulate a rigid payload on a desired trajectory between two desired initial and end positions/orientations. The forward and inverse kinematic problems are first solved for the dual arm system. Then, dynamics of the system and the relations between forces/momen...

We deene an algebra on matrix pencils that is a natural extension of sums, products and quotients of real numbers. The classical algebra of linear transformations may be regarded as a special case of the algebra of pencils. The sum and product deened here preserve right deeating subspaces. We show below that the matrix sign function and the inverse-free algorithms can be derived from an algebra...

This report considers the problem of writing data distribution independent (DDI) programs in order to eliminate or reduce initial data redistribution overheads for distributed memory parallel computers. The functionality and execution time of DDI programs are independent of initial data distributions. First, modular mappings, which can be used to derive many equally optimal ant1 functionally eq...

The inductive logic programming system LOPSTER was created to demonstrate the advantage of basing induction on logical implication rather than -subsumption. LOPSTER's sub-uni cation procedures allow it to induce recursive relations using a minimum number of examples, whereas inductive logic programming algorithms based on -subsumption require many more examples to solve induction tasks. However...

A generalization of the quantum inverse scattering method is proposed replacing the quantum group RLL commutation relations of Lax operators by reflection equation type RLRL commutation relations. Under some natural assumptions the most general algebra of this type allowing to construct the neccessary integrals of ⋆ Supported by the Science and Technology Fellowship Programme for Japan under th...

Smarandache initiated neutrosophic sets (NSs) which can be used as a mathematical tool for dealing with indeterminate and inconsistent information. In order to apply NSs conveniently, single valued neutrosophic sets (SVNSs) were proposed by Wang et al. In this paper, we propose single valued neutrosophic relations (SVNRs) and study their properties. The notions of anti-reflexive kernel, symmetr...

We deal with the statistical matching problem and in particular we study the problem related to the managing of inconsistencies. In fact, when logical relations among the variables are present incoherence can arise in the probability evaluations. The aim of this paper is to remove such incoherences by using different methods. Specific precise distances minimization or least committal imprecise ...

Mereological relations such as part-of and its inverse has-part are fundamental to the description of the structure of living organisms. Whereas classical mereology focuses on individual entities, mereological relations in biomedical ontologies are generally asserted between classes of individuals. In general, this practice leaves some basic issues unanswered: type constraints of mereological r...
