In this work we propose a novel computer fovea model based on hexagonal-type cellular neural networks (hCNN). The hCNN represents a new image processing architecture that is motivated by the overwhelming evidence for hexagonal image processing in biological systems. The necessary new coupling templates and basic hCNN image operators are introduced. The fovea model includes the biological mechanisms of the photoreceptors, the horizontal cells, the ganglions, the bipolar cells, and their cooperation. Thus the model describes the signal processing from the optical stimulation at retina to the output of the ganglion cells. Different building blocks of the model turned out to be useful for practical image enhancement algorithms. Two such applications are considered in this work, namely the image sharpness improvement and the color constancy algorithm.

On-orbital services of space robot are playing more and more important roles in the space operation. Nearly all space operation can not possibly avoid to contact the target. The contact and impact do not possibly avoid when the space robot captures the object. The impulse caused by impact is bad to the space robot and object. This paper derives the impact dynamic equations according to the dynamic model of space robot system and the object. We propose a genetic algorithm (GA) based on approach to search the optimal configuration of space robot at capturing moment in order to minimize or avoid the impact. An illustrative example has verified that the proposed method has satisfactory performance and real significance for reducing the impact.

Wireless networked embedded systems are becoming increasingly important in a wide area of technical fields. In this tutorial paper we present recent results on the design of these systems and their use in control applications, that have been developed within the project Reconfigurable Ubiquitous Networked Embedded Systems (RUNES). RUNES is a European Integrated Project with the aim to control complexity in networked embedded systems by developing robust and scalable middleware systems. New components for control under varying network conditions are discussed for the RUNES architecture. The paper highlights how the complexity of the closed-loop system is increased, due to additional disturbances introduced by the communication system: additional delays, jitter, data rate limitations, packet losses, etc. Experimental work on integration test beds that demonstrates these results is presented, together with motivating links to the RUNES disaster relief tunnel scenario

A typical servicing operation in space mainly includes three phases: capturing the target, berthing and docking the target, and repairing the target. The attitude of a satellite usually changes after the capturing, because the control system is turned off during this phase for safety reasons. In this paper, a method is proposed to achieve the berthing of the target and reorientating the satellite attitude at the same time, both by involving manipulator motion only. Firstly, the constraints on the manipulator and the objective function are defined according to the planning problem. Then the joint trajectory is parameterized by sinusoidal function, whose argument is the polynomial. Finally, genetic algorithm is used to search for the global optimal resolution of the parameters. When the parameters are found, each joint trajectory can be determined. This planned trajectory is smooth and more applicable for the control of the free-floating robotic system. Our proposed method is verified by simulation

Smith predictor is very sensitive to uncertain system with variable time-delay. Using dual-locus diagram method, we first analyse the essence of Smith predictor's sensitivity and present a proposition to illustrate the system stability criteria with relation to system gain and time-delay variation. Then a new modified Smith predictor is proposed to compensate the variable time-delay system with uncertain model for set-point tracking. After that, we discuss the system internal stability and give two-degree freedom controller self-adaptive to eliminate the impact of system uncertainty with varying time-delay. Examples show the improved performance compared to previous modified Smith predictor structures

Supporting active rules has become an important characteristic of modern database systems. Active rules termination is an important problem of active database. To prove termination by using triggering and activation graphs has conservativeness. In order to refine the existing works, the formula constructed for an effective activation path is proposed and an approach about how to determine the termination of active rules set is presented. The analytical results prove that the proposed approach can detect more termination situations than any other existing works. Moveover, an algorithm for termination decision is provided, and its correctness and termination are proved.

The high encoding efficiency of H.264 comes from many new video encoding technologies such as adopting variable block size in the process of motion estimation and compensation. But this increases the complexity of H.264 encoder greatly. The high encoding complexity limits the application of H.264 in the domain of real time video encoding. In order to decrease the complexity of H.264 encoder greatly, this paper proposes a fast inter mode selection algorithm to speed up the H.264 encoder. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can reduce the complexity of the inter mode decision remarkably while incurring little, if any, loss in quality

Two algorithms for robust pole assignment by state feedback, proposed by Kautsky, Nichols and Van Dooren (1985) and by Tits and Yang (1996) are briefly reviewed. MATLAB code implementations of these algorithms, place (from the MATLAB control System Toolbox) and robpole (from SLICOT), are then numerically compared on randomly generated test data sets, as well as on examples from two benchmark collections, in terms of the robustness (insensitivity of poles to variations in plant parameters) of the closed-loop systems they produce. The functions place and robpole are also compared with each other, as well as with the (non robust) pole assignment code pass (from SLICOT) in terms of CPU time and accuracy of the pole assignment.
