A new statistical pattern recognition method has been developed for detection, recognition or measurement of patterns which are (much) smaller than the measure of the elementary pixel windows in the image screen. In this measurement the gray-level histogram of the objects examined is compared with the simulated histograms of different (in type or size) possible objects, and the recognition (of shape or measure) is taken on the basis of the comparison. This method does not need ultra-precise movement of the scanning sensors or any additional hardwares. Moreover, the examined pattern should be randomly distributed on the screen, or a random movement of camera (or target or both) is needed. Effect of noises are analyzed, and filtering processes are suggested in the histogram domain. Several examples of different shapes are presented through simulations and experiments.< >

The authors show that the game of life algorithm, which is equivalent to a Turing machine, can be realized by cellular neural networks (CNNs). They also present a multipath CNN algorithm that demonstrates the capabilities of analog/logic (analogic) software. Complex image processing tasks can be realized by programmable dual computing CNNs. A specific example of blob-counting in a gray-scale image is presented.< >

A method for the path-control of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) in computer integrated manufacturing (CIM) systems that combines the flexibility and easy installation of optical methods with the simplicity and robustness of the inductive method is proposed. Using a new computing paradigm, the cellular neural network (CNN), and a related device, the VLSI CNN chip, a very high speed solution that is less expensive than the conventional methods can be achieved. This AGV control complies with the requirements of CIM systems. Further advantages of the proposed system are as follows: fault tolerance and the ability to give instructions along the path, and the use of a simple local control.< >

In an approach proposed by V.P. Kumar et al. (see Proc. IEEE Int. Conf. on computer-Aided Design, p.226-9, Nov. 1989) for the yield enhancement of programmable gate arrays (PGAs), an initial placement of a circuit is first obtained using a standard technique such as simulated annealing on a defect-free PGA. In the next step this placement is reconfigured so that the circuit is mapped onto the defect-free portion of a defective PGA chip with the same architecture. In the present work, the authors consider the problem of yield enhancement along the same lines as above not only for PGAs but also for wafer-scale-integrated arrays. A heuristic algorithm for reconfiguration based on a graph-theoretic formulation of the problem and a polynomial-time exact algorithm for a special case of the problem are presented. The reconfiguration algorithms are evaluated by comparing the routability and wire length of the reconfigured and initial placements of the circuit.< >

The series Advances in Industrial Control aims to report and encourage technology transfer in control engineering. The rapid development of control technology has an impact on all areas of the control discipline. New theory, new controllers, actuators, sensors, new industrial processes, computer methods, new applications, new philosophies , new challenges. Much of this development work resides in industrial reports, feasibility study papers and the reports of advanced collaborative projects. The series offers an opportunity for researchers to present an extended exposition of such new work in all aspects of industrial control for wider and rapid dissemination. In some areas of manufacturing, the elements of a flexible manufacturing system form the key components of the process line. These key components are four-fold: a set of programmable robots and machines, an automated materia- handling system that allows parts to be freely routed and re-routed, a buffer storage system where parts and partly-assembled components can wait until required for further processing and assembly and finally, a supervisory control system. The technology employed to coordinate and control all these components as a working system is usually based on programmable logic controllers. The use of this automation hardware and software in manufacturing is designed to yield significant cost reductions and to enhance quality.
