This paper deals with the collision avoidance of the cooperative robots using the programming through imitation. Each physical robot acts fully independently, communicating with corresponding virtual prototype and imitating her behaviour. Each physical robot reproduces the motion of her virtual prototype. The estimation of the collision-free actions of the virtual cooperative robots and the tra...

Cooperative catalysis has proven to be a powerful strategy for realizing high reactivity and selectivity in asymmetric transformations. A variety of cooperative asymmetric catalysts have been developed over the last two decades. In this feature article, recent advances from our research on cooperative asymmetric catalysis, focusing on dinuclear Schiff base catalysis, are described. Design of di...

This paper outlines the research conducted on the SEAS DTC AA011 project into learning cooperative decision strategies for Autonomous Vehicles (AVs). The paper presents a brief review of the technical challenges involved and existing approaches to designing cooperative decision strategies. An initial study is used to compare two of the candidate solutions: Probability Collectives (PC) and Coord...

In the pursuit of effective treatments for cancer, an emerging strategy is "active targeting", where nanoparticles are decorated with targeting ligands able to recognize and bind specific receptors overexpressed by tumor cells or tumor vasculature so that a greater fraction of the administered drugs are selectively trafficked to tumor sites. However, the implementation of this strategy has face...

As usual, the microgrid operates in grid-connect mode, but, when a fault occurs in the upstream grid, it should disconnect and shift into islanded operation mode. In grid-connect mode, the controlling power at the PCC is necessary management function rather than the frequency and voltage. However, the controlling the frequency and voltage is asked in islanded mode. To achieve these management g...

In order to decrease fading and at the same time maintain an acceptable spectral efficiency, different cooperative schemes have been proposed for multi-source multi-relay networks. These schemes usually use the channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter side to do channel selection or relay selection to avoid deeply faded channels. A short note on the Distributed Coding Strategy, follow...

To meet the challenge of large-scale renewable energy penetration and take full advantage of existing AC infrastructure, the bipolar DC distribution system is of interest. In this article, the system structure and characteristics of the bipolar DC distribution network are proposed. The three-level Neural Point Clamped Converter (NPC) is used in the proposed system to construct the bipolar DC sy...

Two major simultaneous attack strategies have been introduced, as one of cooperative attack of multiple missiles. One strategy is an undesignated time attack, in which the missiles communicate among themselves to synchronize the arrival times by reducing the mutual differences of times-to-go of multiple missiles during the homing. The other is a designated time attack, in which a common impact ...

For the iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma, there exist Markov strategies which solve the problem when we restrict attention to the long term average payoff. When used by both players these assure the cooperative payoff for each of them. Neither player can benefit by moving unilaterally any other strategy, i.e. these are Nash equilibria. In addition, if a player uses instead an alternative which decre...

In the paper 16] has been proposed a method for synthesis of cooperative information systems 4] speciied by data tables 10]. On the base of this method it has been elaborated and presented in the paper 17] a strategy for reconstruction of the synthetized cooperative information system when the speciication for the system is being changed. The aim of this paper is to present an approach for the ...
