The thrusters and propulsion propellers systems, as well the operating situations, are all well-known nonlinearities which caused less accuracy of dynamic positioning system (DPS) vessels in path planning control process. In this study, to enhance robust performance DPS, we proposed a adaptive fuzzy model reduce effect uncertainty problems disturbances on DPS. Firstly, controller with law is de...

In this study, the primary paper-mill sludge characterized as containing 51% glucan was used to optimize enzymatic saccharification process for production of bioethanol using a Box–Behnken design (BBD). Polyethylene glycol 4000 (PEG-4000) surfactant-assisted dried (DPS) showed 12.8% improvement in efficiency. There statistically significant effect solid enzyme loading and time on DPS at 95% con...

Direct policy search (DPS) is a method for machine learning, where the policy is represented by some parameters and they are optimized by evaluating the policy directly. We introduce exemplar based policy (EBP) optimization as a framework of DPS. An EBP is a policy composed of a set of exemplars which is parameter to be optimised, and a case-based action selector. An actual implementation with ...

Distributional models of semantics capture word meaning very effectively, and they have been recently extended to account for compositionally-obtained representations of phrases made of content words. We explore whether compositional distributional semantic models can also handle a construction in which grammatical terms play a crucial role, namely determiner phrases (DPs). We introduce a new p...

A comprehensive but simple-to-use software package called DPS (Data Processing System) has been developed to execute a range of standard numerical analyses and operations used in experimental design, statistics and data mining. This program runs on standard Windows computers. Many of the functions are specific to entomological and other biological research and are not found in standard statisti...

Polarity items have been analyzed as existential DPs that introduce into the semantic derivation two types of alternatives: domain alternatives (corresponding to possible restrictions quantification) and scalar stronger quantificational forces.) This approach has led development a typology polarity is based on these (Chierchia 2013). What are dimensions variation? Bar-Lev & Margulis (2014) ...

Asymmetric segregation of damaged proteins (DPs) during mitosis has been linked in yeast and bacteria to the protection of one cell from aging. Recent evidence suggests that stem cells may use a similar mechanism; however, to date there is no in vivo evidence demonstrating this effect in healthy adult stem cells. We report that stem cells in larval (neuroblast) and adult (female germline and in...

The frequency of deletion of short arm satellites has been examined in various populations. Four out of 2509 males in psychiatric institutions and prisons had Dps or Gps (1-6 per 1000), and five out of 6187 persons in the general population had Dps or Gps (0-8 per 1000). The difference is not significant. The segregation rate of the chromosome with lack of short arm satellite material did not d...

INTRODUCTION This study was designed to evaluate the psychometric attributes and screening efficiency of a Spanish version of the Children Predictive Scales (DPS) against the Spanish Diagnostic Interview Schedule for Children (DISC-IV). METHOD This pilot cross-sectional study included 61 children aged 9 to 14 years in a mainstream school. The following psychometric attributes were analyzed: a...

Motivated by clustering of data sets with multimode and skewed cluster distributions, we introduce a two-layer Bayesian Gaussian mixture model that is non-parametric in terms of not only the number of clusters but their shapes as well. The upper layer in this model uses a global Dirichlet Process (DP) to model the number of clusters and their sizes, while the lower layer assigns one local DP fo...
