Digital control of dynamic systems

Presents an end-to-end solution to the cooperative control problem represented by the scenario where M unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) are assigned to transition through N known target locations in the presence of dynamic threats. The problem is decomposed into the subproblems of: 1) cooperative target assignment; 2) coordinated UAV intercept; 3) path planning; 4) feasible trajectory generation; and 5) asymptotic trajectory following. The design technique is based on a hierarchical approach to coordinated control. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.

Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is a new paradigm in information technology aimed at empowering people's capabilities by means of digital environments that are sensitive, adaptive, and responsive to human needs, habits, gestures, and emotions. This futuristic vision of daily environment will enable innovative human-machine interactions characterized by pervasive, unobtrusive, and anticipatory communications. Such innovative interaction paradigms make AmI technology a suitable candidate for developing various real life solutions, including in the healthcare domain. This survey will discuss the emergence of AmI techniques in the healthcare domain, in order to provide the research community with the necessary background. We will examine the infrastructure and technology required for achieving the vision of AmI, such as smart environments and wearable medical devices. We will summarize the state-of-the-art artificial intelligence (AI) methodologies used for developing AmI system in the healthcare domain, including various learning techniques (for learning from user interaction), reasoning techniques (for reasoning about users' goals and intensions), and planning techniques (for planning activities and interactions). We will also discuss how AmI technology might support people affected by various physical or mental disabilities or chronic disease. Finally, we will point to some of the successful case studies in the area and we will look at the current and future challenges to draw upon the possible future research paths.

A Survey on Ambient Intelligence in Healthcare

In existing fuzzy logic controllers (FLCs), input variables are mostly the error and the change-of-error regardless of complexity of controlled plants. Either control input u or the change of control input /spl Delta/u is commonly used as its output variable. A rule table is then constructed on a two-dimensional (2-D) space. This scheme naturally inherits from conventional proportional-derivative (PD) or proportional-integral (PI) controller. Observing that 1) rule tables of most FLCs have skew-symmetric property and 2) the absolute magnitude of the control input |u| or |/spl Delta/u| is proportional to the distance from its main diagonal line in the normalized input space, we derive a new variable called the signed distance, which is used as a sole fuzzy input variable in our simple FLC called single-input FLC (SFLC). The SFLC has many advantages: The total number of rules is greatly reduced compared to existing FLCs, and hence, generation and tuning of control rules are much easier. The proposed SFLC is proven to be absolutely stable using Popov criterion. Furthermore, the control performance is nearly the same as that of existing FLCs, which is revealed via computer simulations using two nonlinear plants.

To maximize total operating time, an online minimum-energy translational and rotational velocity trajectory planning and control system is presented on a straight-line path for three-wheeled omnidirectional mobile robots (TOMRs). We suggest an efficient online trajectory planning algorithm, which minimizes a practical cost function as the energy that is drawn from batteries to motors, which is based on an accurate TOMR dynamic model that includes both the Coriolis force and the actuator motor dynamics. Using Pontryagin's minimum principle, we find the minimum-energy rotational velocity trajectory in analytic form. Then, the minimum-energy translational velocity trajectory is found using a novel algorithm that has a time complexity of O(n), which is based on a linearity condition on the state transition of TOMRs. Moreover, a trajectory control system is implemented using the resolved-acceleration control to validate the actual performance. Simulation and experiment results show that these minimum-energy trajectories can save energy up to 4.76% compared with the energy-efficient trapezoidal velocity profile and up to 5.29% compared with the loss-minimization control.

This paper introduces a new robotic smart house, Intelligent Sweet Home, developed at KAIST in Korea, which is based on several robotic agents and aims at testing advanced concepts for independent living of the elderly and people with disabilities. The work focuses on technical solutions for human-friendly assistance in motion/mobility and advanced human-machine interfaces that provide simple control of all assistive robotic systems and home-installed appliances. The smart house concept includes an intelligent bed, intelligent wheelchair, and robotic hoist for effortless transfer of the user between bed and wheelchair. The design solutions comply with most of the users' requirements and suggestions collected by a special questionnaire survey of people with disabilities. The smart house responds to the user's commands as well as to the recognized intentions of the user. Various interfaces, based on hand gestures, voice, body movement, and posture, have been studied and tested. The paper describes the overall system structure and explains the design and functionality of some main system components.
