In this paper the flying convex-path-following formations problem (FCxPFF) is solved for two cases of underactuated rigid bodies. In the first case the the rigid bodies have a single degree of underactuation with two thrusts and three torques. In the second, they have two degrees of underactuation with a single thrust. The solution builds on the one developed for fully-actuated agents in Part I of the paper. In addition, the way the solution is tailored for underactuation relies on further utilization of hierarchic set stabilization, and reduction. Additional remarks on the benefits of the approach, and simulation results of the proposed solutions are presented.

The intrusion response system is dedicated to automatically respond to sophisticated network intrusions, which is a sequential decision-making problem for autonomous agents. The current Markov decision process (MDP) or stochastic games based solutions suffer from several weaknesses: (i) The MDP-based approach is unable to explicitly model the opponents;(ii) The Nash equilibrium approach of stochastic games cannot handle the condition with multi equilibria. Existing studies have not considered the cognitive ability of the agent and lack of explicit opponent modeling. Inspired by recursive reasoning, this paper introduces a theory of mind (ToM)-based stochastic game-theoretic approach to reason about the beliefs and behaviors of the attackers. Each agent maintains different order ToM beliefs concerning his opponent with explicit opponent modeling. In order to accurately predict the attacker's action with nested beliefs, we utilize the Bayesian attack graph (BAG) to model multi-step attacks scenarios. In addition, the agent is allowed to learn from new information to adjust his beliefs and learning speed. Simulation results validate that ToM modeling performs well in the intrusion response system than random defense actions. Besides, a defender with first-order ToM beliefs always wins an attacker with zero-order ToM beliefs.

Various types of faults can occur in an air conditioner resulting in a decrease in efficiency, a rise in energy consumption, and increasing maintenance costs. Hence predictive maintenance becomes important. In this paper, the two most common types of faults - gas leakage and capacitor malfunction have been detected using the decision tree machine learning algorithm. The data for faulty and operating air conditioners have been collected using distributed sensors, microcontroller, and dedicated circuitry and analyzed using MATLAB Classification App Learner Toolbox. The results obtained by the decision tree for fault detection and diagnosis and load monitoring were then compared with results obtained by support vector machine and the prediction accuracy for the decision tree was found to be higher. The presented research work can identify the air conditioner which is faulty as well as predicts the type of fault at an early stage to do maintenance beforehand.

Visual simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is the core of intelligent robot navigation system. Many traditional SLAM algorithms assume that the scene is static. When a dynamic object appears in the environment, the accuracy of visual SLAM can degrade due to the interference of dynamic features of moving objects. This strong hypothesis limits the SLAM applications for service robot or driverless car in the real dynamic environment. In this paper, a dynamic object removal algorithm that combines object recognition and optical flow techniques is proposed in the visual SLAM framework for dynamic scenes. The experimental results show that our new method can detect moving object effectively and improve the SLAM performance compared to the state of the art methods.
