A measurement technique is presented for recording positions of the bones of the shoulder mechanism, i.e., thorax, clavicula, scapula and humerus, in 3-D space, based on palpating and recording positions of bony landmarks. The palpation technique implies that only static positions can be measured. Accuracy of retrieving bony landmarks is checked on-line using rigid body assumptions. The measurement error is calculated afterwards and is comparable with cinegraphic methods. Axial rotation of the clavicula is estimated by minimizing rotations in the acromioclnviacularjoint. A number of motion definitions is compared by means of interindividual variation and subjective interpretability. Two useful definitions are proposed for describing motions of the shoulder mechanism. Four conditions have been recorded: abduction and anteflexion of the humerus both with and without additional weight in the hand. Abduction and anteflexion result in large differences in scapular and clavicular motions. The effect of additional weight in the hand on the position of the shoulder girdle is negligible.
A process trace describes the processes taken in a workflow to generate a particular result. Given many process traces, each with a large amount of very low level information, it is a challenge to make process traces ...

Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy models have been the popular choice for multi-model based nonlinear system identification for controller design. However, the interpretation of the model from a dynamical systems point of view is still unclear. In this paper, we investigate the interpretation of the TS fuzzy models in terms of local dynamics of nonlinear systems in state space. The investigation is based on the comparison between the constant-affine recursive i/o equation and constant-affine state space representations. We show that the true local dynamics is not identifiable by TS fuzzy models by analysis and example. For the identification of constant-affine state space models, a subspace identification algorithm is proposed to identify the true local dynamics with zero initial conditions.

In this paper we give some basic principles of fuzzy neural computing using synaptic and somatic operations. We first briefly review the neural systems based upon conventional synaptic (confluence) and somatic (aggregation) operations. Then we provide a detailed neuronal morphology based upon fuzzy logic and its generalization in the form of T-operators. For such fuzzy logic based neurons, we then develop the learning and adaptation algorithm.
