Linear systems are still often preferred in industrial control applications for their solvable and single solution nature and for the clarity to the most application engineers. Artificial neural networks are powerful cognitive nonlinear tools, but their nonlinear strength is naturally repaid with the local minima problem, overfitting, and high demands for application-correct neural architecture and optimization technique that often require skilled users. The QNU is the important midpoint between linear systems and highly nonlinear neural networks because the QNU is relatively very strong in nonlinear approximation; however, its optimization and performance have fast and convex-like nature, and its mathematical structure and the derivation of the learning rules is very comprehensible and efficient for implementation.

Scene classification has application in the development of automatic surveillance systems, robotic navigation, content-based image retrieval systems among other areas. According to how a scene is recognized, scene classification algorithms can be divided in two categories: based on object recognition and based on low-level image features obtained by applying descriptors. This paper proposes a new binary descriptor called Local Lineal Binary Pattern and a new framework that allows the combination of the new binary descriptor with another local and global descriptors in order to improve the automatic classification of scene images. This new binary descriptor increases the spatial support for its calculation allowing to add more spatial information than the traditional binary descriptors such as the Local Binary Pattern and the Modified Census Transform. Experiments conducted over indoor and outdoor scene datasets show that the new proposed descriptor and framework help to improve the results obtained by related works.

Detection of the QRS complex is affected by the abnormalities and quality in electrocardiogram recordings; the proposed method can detect QRS complex despite these challenges. Electrocardiogram continuous signal acquisition is performed with the BITalino biomedical data acquisition card. Electrocardiogram signals typically suffer from (a) premature atrial complexes, (b) premature ventricular complexes, (c) low signal-to-noise ratio, (d) right bundle branch blocks, (e) left bundle branch blocks, and (f) non-stationary effects. Interestingly, the signal processing is implemented by means of a bandpass filter, followed by a numerical derivative. Next, the Hilbert transform and the adaptive threshold technique are implemented to detect the QRS complex. Tests are performed to evaluate the Internet of Things-assisted architecture using the obtained signal in real time. Results, and the simplicity of the architecture, demonstrate that it is suitable for wearable, portable, and battery-operated electrocardiogram acquisition card.

Non linear polynomial, exponential, and trigonometric models are mathematically deduced and discussed. Analysis about their pros and cons, and their mathematical modelling are made on what method to chose for what type of highly non linear multi-dimension problems are more suitable to be solved. In this study only deterministic models with analytic solutions are involved, or parameters calculation by numeric methods, which the complete model can subsequently be treated as a theoretical model. Models deduction are summarised and presented as a survey.

By Using the Hilbert-Huang Transform as an adaptive filter, the proposed method decreases the embedding dimension space from five (original samples) to four (de-noising samples). This dimension space provides the number of inputs to the fuzzy rule base system, which causes the number of rules, the time for training and the inference process to decrease. Experimental results indicated that this method achieves higher accuracy prediction than the direct use of original data.

The aim is to analyze the potentialities of conventional neural networks, such as feedforward neural networks, recurrent neural networks; and also, the potentialities of nonconventional neural networks composed typically by higher-order neural units. Finally, experimental analysis of long-term prediction of non-stationary time series (Mackey-Glass) is presented as well. The resulting prediction made by the proposed neural models feedforward multilayer perceptron and quadratic neural unit show high prediction accuracy for non-stationary time series.

We use hydroponic tomato cultivation as our test case because tomatoes are part of the goods and services category for the “Índice Nacional de Precios al Consumidor” in México, which is an important reference for greenhouse crops and because hydroponics is a technique that saves precious resources, such as water. Fuzzy control allows a person to give instructions to the greenhouse in a natural language. Therefore, we generate input variables to relate the temperature inside the greenhouse to favorable or unfavorable conditions for crop growth and an output variable that allows the control to keep the window closed or to open the window at 45 or 90 degrees. After the mathematical model was refined, it is executed in a GNU Octave environment to generate the temperature values at which the window should react.

The model is based on the combined usage of Hilbert-Huang transform, False nearest neighbors, and a novel neural network architecture. This model is intended to increase the prediction accuracy by applying the Empirical Mode Decomposition over a signal, and to reconstruct the signal by adding each calculated Intrinsic Mode Function and its residue. The Intrinsic Mode Function that obtains the highest frequency oscillation is not considered during the reconstruction. The optimal embedding dimension space of the reconstructed signal is obtained by False Nearest Neighbors algorithm. Finally, for the prediction horizon, a neural network retraining technique is applied to the reconstructed signal. The method has been validated using the record 103 from MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. Results are very promising since the measured root mean squared errors are 0.031, 0.05, and 0.085 of the ECG amplitude, for the prediction horizons of 0.0028, 0.0056, 0.0083 seconds, respectively.

The method is performed in a window framework. First, the Wavelet transform is applied to the ECG signal to remove noise. Next, the Hilbert transform is applied to detect dominant peak points in the signal. Finally, the adaptive threshold technique is applied to detect R-peaks, Q, and S points. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated against the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database, and the numerical results indicated significant detection accuracy.

Communication between the users of information system is a fundamental concept for acquiring, showing, spreading, sharing and constantly increasing the knowledge about the circumstances under which they are in need to make a move all alone as well as while working in groups. In this paper, we review information stream-based systems on amount of information acceptable to facilitate the process of decision making, also in multilingual settings. We analyze the information system objects and the resource management cycle. In addition, methodology of data mining in natural language is investigated.

We implement some attributes of evolutionary algorithms performing cosine similarity objective function of a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm then, we evaluate an English text set for translation precision into the Spanish text as a simulated benchmark, and explore the backward process. Our results show that PSO algorithm can be used for translation of multiple language sentences with one identifier only, in other words the technology presented is language-pair independent. Specifically, we indicate that our cosine similarity objective function improves the velocity attribute of the PSO algorithm, making the complex cost functions unnecessary.

The proposed control algorithm is applied to a doubly fed induction generator whose stators are directly connected to the grid; the rotor is connected to a pulse-width modulation converter. To extract the maximum power, the rotor-side converter is controlled by using a flux-oriented strategy for the stator. The simulation results show that a proportional integral controller designed with chemical reaction optimization yields better results than the traditional method in terms of the performance index.

Superconducting coils together with a pair of resistive PF coils, an air core ohmic transformer and a pair of vertical field coils. These magnets are instrumented with various cryogenic compatible sensors and voltage taps for its monitoring, operation, protection, and control during different machine operational scenarios like cryogenic cool down, current charging cycles including ramp up, flat top, plasma breakdown, dumping/ramp down and warm up. The data acquisition system for these magnet instrumentation have stringent requirement regarding operational flexibility, reliability for continuous long term operation and data visualization during operations. A VME hardware based data acquisition system with ethernet based remote system architecture is implemented for data acquisition and control of the complete magnet operation. Software application is developed in three parts namely an embedded VME target, a network server and a remote client applications. A target board application implemented with real time operating system takes care of hardware configuration and raw data transmission to server application. A java server application manages several activities mainly multiple client communication over ethernet, database interface and data storage. A java based platform independent desktop client application is developed for online and offline data visualization, remote hard ware configuration and many other user interface tasks. The application has two modes of operation to cater to different needs of cool-down and charging operations. This paper describes application architecture, installation and commissioning and operational experience from the recent campaigns of SST-1.
