This paper deals with the optimal tuning of proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers for a pancake direct current (DC) torque motor system that belongs to a Diesel engine exhaust gas recirculation valve in automotive applications. The Bacterial Foraging Optimization (BFO) algorithms solve an optimization problem which targets the minimization of an objective function expressed as the weighted sum of overshoot plus the integral of squared control error, and the parameters of the PID controllers are the variables of the objective function. Our BFO algorithms are characterized by the validation of the position of bacteria only if the PID control system response is in a valid range. A digitally simulated case study which deals with the shaft angle control of a DC torque motor system is considered. The impact of four parameters of one BFO algorithm on the objective function values is discussed.

In this paper, the unsupervised human action retrieval problem in 3D mesh sequences is addressed. An action is represented by a mesh sequence wherein each frame is represented by a static shape descriptor. Six state-of-the-art static descriptors are used to extract meaningful information of the mesh objects in the sequence. These descriptors are first examined in terms of similarity performance using Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves. Then, they are utilized in the action retrieval problem, where the query is a 3D mesh sequence. Each descriptor for an action, is considered as a multidimensional curve which traverses the corresponding points. The temporal similarity estimation is achieved by two variations of the descriptor's normalization in the context of Multidimensional Dynamic Time Warping. Experimental results are given for two standard datasets, one containing real data and another one containing artificial data.

Human geography is a concept used to indicate the augmentation of standard geographic layers of information about an area with behavioral variations of the people in the area. In particular, the actions of people can be attributed to both local and regional variations in physical (i.e., terrain) and human (e.g., income, political, cultural) variables. In this paper, we study the utility of a human geographic data cube coupled with computational intelligence as a means to predict conditions across a geographic area. This becomes a Big data problem. In this sense, we are using genotype information to predict phenotype states. We demonstrate the approach on the prediction of medically underserved areas in Missouri.

This paper proposes the Bacterial Foraging Optimization (BFO)-based tuning of controllers for a pancake DC torque motor in the framework of a Diesel engine exhaust gas recirculation valve as a representative automotive torque motor actuator. The validation of the position of bacteria only if the control system response is in a valid range is inserted in the BFO algorithm. PID and sliding mode controllers are optimally tuned by the BFO algorithm focused on solving an optimization problem that minimizes an objective function expressed as the weighted sum of overshoot plus the integral of squared error. The parameters of these two controllers belong to the vector variables of the objective function. A case study that deals with the shaft angle control of an automotive torque motor actuator is included to validate our approach by simulation results. The comparison of control system performance is carried out.

This paper suggests a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) approach to the optimal tuning of fuzzy models for Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABSs). A set of ten local state-space models of the ABS is first obtained by the linearization of the nonlinear state-space model of the ABS process at ten operating points. The initial Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy models are next obtained by the modal equivalence principle, namely by placing the local state-space models of the process in the rule consequents. The optimization problem targets the minimization of the objective function (OF) expressed as the mean squared modeling error, and the vector variable of the OF consists of the feet of the triangular input membership functions. A PSO algorithm solves the optimization problem and gives the optimal T-S fuzzy models. A set of real-time experimental results is included to validate the PSO approach and the optimal T-S fuzzy models for real-world ABS laboratory equipment.

This paper proposes an optimal path planning approach based on Charged System Search (CSS) algorithms. The approach is applied to multiple mobile robots on holonomic wheeled platforms. Optimization problems (o.p.s) are defined for each robot to minimize the weighted sum of four objective functions whose minimization targets four path planning objectives. The CSS algorithms are mapped onto the o.p.s considering that the fitness functions are the objective functions, the search spare is the solution space, the agents (charged particles) are the mobile robots, and the population of agents is the set of mobile robots. Therefore, the optimal solutions to the o.p.s are the optimal paths. The new path planning approach is validated by experiments, and a comparison with other nature-inspired optimization-based path planning approaches is given.

This paper suggests a model-free tuning solution for a sliding mode control system (SMCS) structure dedicated to servo systems. The new SMCS structure is viewed in the framework of reference trajectory tracking using a first-order nonlinear dynamic system as a local approximation of the process model. The sliding mode control signal augments the control signal specific to a model-free PI control system (CS) structure in order to compensate for the estimation errors which affect the systematic design and performance. The derivatives in the local approximation of the process model are estimated numerically using a Savitzky-Golay filter to carry out both differentiation and smoothing. A simple design approach is proposed for the SMCS structure. The real-time experimental results concerning the speed control of a laboratory nonlinear DC servo system prove the performance improvement of the SMCS structure against a model-free PI CS structure.

This paper discusses the implementation of an efficient anti-collision algorithm for RFID systems. Conventional TDMA methods do not show a high efficiency and speediness in collision detection and do not take into account the spatial characteristics of tags distribution. By combining the TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) and SDMA (Space Division Multiple Access) algorithms, the proposed approach takes into account the characteristics of the tag position in the reading area of the reader. Knowing that the SDMA method is based on the principle of Digital Beam Forming (DBF), we used the FFT and IFFT blocks to form the different beams and the OFDM technique to meet the orthogonality condition. We then divided the space into two subsets of beams and applied the TDMA method to detect any collision. The developed RFID anti-collision SDMA system has been coded by VHDL and simulated using the ISE software for FPGA implementation.
