Cooperative object manipulation control of rigid-flexible multi-body systems in space is studied in this paper. During such tasks, flexible members like solar panels may get vibrated that in turn may lead to some oscillatory disturbing forces on other subsystems, and consequently produces error in the motion of the end-effectors of the cooperative manipulating arms. Therefore, to design and dev...

The inverse problem of identifying dynamic biological networks from their time-course response data set is a cornerstone of systems biology. Hill and Michaelis-Menten model, which is a forward approach, provides local kinetic information. However, repeated modifications and a large amount of experimental data are necessary for the parameter identification. S-system model, which is composed of h...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a method to measure relative efficiency of a set of decision-making units (dmus) which uses multiple inputs and produces multiple outputs. in the conventional dea, crisp inputs and outputs are fundamentally necessary. but the observed values of inputs and outputs in real-world problems are sometimes imprecise. thus, performance measurement often needs to be do...

Existing electronic shops based on CBR technology allow customers to search for adequate products by only specifying the attributes for the products in a fuzzy way. Unfortunately, most electronic shops do not further support customers after the retrieval step. However, especially configurable products could be customized at this stage. Based on the approach of interactive adaptation operators, ...

This article is devoted to the problem of decision making under uncertainty. An aggregated approach used that combines optimization and choice a solution, which makes it possible obtain more realistic solution. The criteria in vector are: profit, product quality, employee satisfaction. To solve problem, 3 methods were used: "Goal programming", "Interactive", "FMOLP". task group implemented on b...

This paper presents a new multi-objective mathematical model to address a Healthcare Inventory Routing Problem (HIRP) for medicinal drug distribution to healthcare facilities. The first part of objective function minimizes total inventory and transportation costs, while satisfaction is maximized by minimizing forecast error which caused by product shortage and the amount of expired drugs; Green...

Though ray tracing has recently become interactive, its high precomputation time for building spatial indices usually limits its applications to walkthroughs of static scenes. This is a major limitation, as most applications demand support for dynamically animated models. In this paper, we present a new approach to ray trace a special but important class of dynamic scenes, namely models whose c...

-Target tracking is one of the major aspects often used in sonar applications, surveillance systems, communication systems, embedded applications etc. To obtain kinematic components of a moving target such as position, velocity, and acceleration, one of the most used approaches in target tracking is stochastic estimation approach. Movement of the target is described by state space dynamic syste...
