INSPIRED by the insight from American political scientist Lasswell, who summarized the environmental role in societal surveillance [1], Schramm coined the term “social radar” [2] as it resembles the activities of radar in collecting and processing information, playing a crucial role in helping humans perceive changes in the internal and external environment and promptly adjusting adaptive behaviors.
Service robots must navigate efficiently and harmoniously in human-robot coexistence environments. Previous studies often treated pedestrians as independent entities, ignoring human intentions and leading to group int...

Powered by advanced information technology,more and more complexsystems are exhibiting characteristics of the cyber-physical-social systems(CPSS).In this context,computational experiments method has emerged as a novel approach for the design,analysis,management,control,and integration of CPSS,which can realize the causal analysis of complexsystems by means of“algorithmization”of“counterfactuals”.However,because CPSS involve human and social factors(e.g.,autonomy,initiative,and sociality),it is difficult for traditional design of experiment(DOE)methods to achieve the generative explanation of system *** address this challenge,this paper proposes an integrated approach to the design of computational experiments,incorporating three key modules:1)Descriptive module:Determining the influencing factors and response variables of the system by means of the modeling of an artificial society;2)Interpretative module:Selecting factorial experimental design solution to identify the relationship between influencing factors and macro phenomena;3)Predictive module:Building a meta-model that is equivalent to artificial society to explore its operating ***,a case study of crowd-sourcing platforms is presented to illustrate the application process and effectiveness of the proposed approach,which can reveal the social impact of algorithmic behavior on“rider race”.

This paper presents an improved equivalent-input-disturbance(EID) approach to deal with periodic disturbances. The approach has two degrees of freedom. One is an improved EID compensator, in which a repetitive controller is inserted in this study. The other is a conventional servo system for a reference *** improved EID compensator estimates and compensates for periodic disturbances without steady-state error, and the servo system ensures a satisfactory tracking performance. The improved EID compensator is designed using the linear-matrix-inequality(LMI) method. Three parameters in an LMI are selected using the particle-swarm-optimization(PSO) algorithm. The state-feedback gain of the conventional servo system is designed using the linear-quadratic-regulator(LQR) method. Simulation results of a rotational control system demonstrate the validity of the approach and its advantage over others.
