In semiautonomous mobile sensor networks, since human operators may be involved in the control loop, particular improper actions may cause accidents and result in catastrophes. For such systems, this paper proposes a command filtering framework to accept or reject the human-issued commands so that undesirable executions are never performed. In the present approach, Petri nets are used to model ...

Exosystem: A dynamical system modelling the set of all exogenous inputs (command/disturbances) affecting a controlled plant. Internal Model: A model of the exogenous inputs (command/disturbances) affecting a controlled plant, embedded in the interior of the controller. Generalized Tracking Problem: The problem of designing a controller able to asymptotically track/reject any exogenous command/d...

as a result of rule of law ideal, judges are required to act in accordance with laws. the ideal is justified by some political values: political liberty, legal liberty , personal liberty and equality. citizens are subject only to the law not to the arbitrary will or judgment of another who wields coercive government power. but in some cases law is indeterminate. in these cases there is an impor...

In this paper we present a novel method to reject OOV words for speaker dependent dynamic command set recognition. The OOV rejection problem is regarded as the designing of recognizer with two classes: In-Vocabulary command and OOV command. Multiple soundly confidence measures derived from likelihood score of acoustic match and prosody match are defined and compete with each other at the same l...

Jarvis is a system designed to respond to user issued commands to provide convenient control over a number of electronic devices. These devices can be lights, TV's, radios, stereos, etc. The system will be designed to work best within a moderate home with the convenience of a wireless router. Fig. 1.1 shows how each stage of the system will interact with each other. More details on this are pro...

Mixed Control Moment Gyro and Momentum Wheel Attitude Control Strategies C. Eugene Skelton II Attitude control laws that use control moment gyros (CMGs) and momentum wheels are derived with nonlinear techniques. The control laws command the CMGs to provide rapid angular acceleration and the momentum wheels to reject tracking and initial condition errors. Numerical simulations of derived control...

This paper describes a fast and efficient method to detect out-of-vocabulary words and compute confidence measures in a command-based speech recognition system. The method uses a phone-loop model to reject out-of-vocabulary words and a filler model to compute a confidence measure for each accepted word present in the recognizer output. Tests with this method show that it achieves a good trade-o...

ratification as a term common among the imami usulites entails that divine decree is consistently in compliance with the mujtahid’s opinion, and even in cases where the opinions of the mujtahids differ with one another, all of them are right and true and divine. this notion of ratification has been expressed in both mu‘tazilī and ash‘arī manners. the question now is whether sunni usulites belie...

We introduce a new class of speech processing, called Intentional Voice Command Detection (IVCD). It is necessary to reject not only noises but also unintended voices to achieve completely hands-free speech interface. Conventional VAD framework is not sufficient for such purpose, and we discuss how we should define IVCD and how we can realize it. We investigate implementation of IVCD from the v...
