For very large document collections or high volume streams of documents, finding relevant documents is a major information filtering problem. One of the main types of information retrieval systems produces a word frequency measure estimated by some important parts of the document using neural network approaches. This paper reports a new network structure for this task. It is specialised considering the main difficulties of these kinds of applications, namely, the calculation time complexity. It will be pointed out that the calculation, hence, the learning time is much reduced applying the new algorithm, however, the result is significantly improved compared to the former approaches, which offer a possibility to increase the number of considered words, hence, improve the effectiveness of information filtering systems.

In this paper we address the problem of designing simple global tracking controllers for a kinematic model of a mobile robot and a simple dynamic model of a mobile robot. For this we use a cascaded systems approach, resulting into linear controllers that yield global K-exponential stability of the closed loop system.

This paper considers the abstract features of human/machine interaction systems that are required for the production of intelligent behaviour. A conceptual architecture is proposed for a subset of intelligent systems called human-centred intelligent systems (HCISs) and it is argued that such systems must be autonomous, robust and adaptive in order to be intelligent. Soft computing is proposed as a promising new technique that can be used to build HCISs, and examples are presented where this is already being done. Finally, flexibility is defined to be a combination of the often-conflicting requirements of robustness and adaptability, and it is argued that the right balance between these two features is necessary to achieve intelligent behaviour.

Research in human/computer interaction has mainly focused on natural language, text, speech and vision primarily in isolation. Recently there have been a number of research projects that have concentrated on the integration of such modalities using intelligent reasoners. The rationale is that many inherent ambiguities in single modes of communication can be resolved if extra information is available. This paper describes an intelligent multi-modal system called the Smart Work Manager. The main characteristics of the Smart Work Manager are that it can process speech, text, face images, gaze information and simulated gestures rising the mouse as input modalities, and its output is in the form of speech, text or graphics. The main components of the system are the reasoner, a speech system, a vision system, an integration platform and the application interface. The overall architecture of the system will be described together with the integration platform and the components of the system which include a non-intrusive neural network based gaze-tracking system. The paper concludes with a discussion on the applicability of such systems to intelligent human/computer interaction and lessons learnt in terms of reliability and efficiency.

This paper refers to the fast implementation of the positional forward acceleration of the end effector of revolute robotic arms with spherical wrists, using the distributed arithmetic technique. The acceleration of the end effector is calculated by a cascade configuration of two pipelined arrays that calculate the Jacobian matrix and its time derivative, as well as the centrifugal-Coriolis and linear accelerations. These partial accelerations are then added in the adder tree. The building blocks of the arrays are the distributed arithmetic-based circuits that implement the matrix-vector multiplications involved in the calculations. The digit-serial configuration of the proposed implementation of the positional forward acceleration of the end effector is described. The serial and the parallel configurations may result as special cases of the digit-serial configuration. The proposed distributed arithmetic (DA) implementation of the positional forward acceleration may be applied, after appropriate modifications, to the general case of robots having either revolute or prismatic joints, with any type of wrist.

A computational method, DAS, is proposed for symmetry analysis oi a planar figure closed by a simply connected curve. DAS determines both the symmetric axis and the symmetric point pairs on the curve, consistently, based on the duality of two geometric plane divisions, the Delaunay triangulation and the Voronoi diagram.

A simple, but effective, method of calibrating a multimanipulator robotic system is introduced. The algorithm uses precisely machined calibration plates which are inexpensive to manufacture and require no measuring instrumentation. The method is tested on a dual-arm system which resulted in an order of magnitude reduction in the pose error. Coordinated dual-arm manipulation experiments are conducted using the calibrated kinematic model to validate the usefulness of the calibration process.
