In this paper, a dynamic EMG-torque model of the elbow joint is developed based on ANN, and two novel test methods are proposed to validate its generalization performance. A time-delay neural network (TDNN) model is built and proved to have less risk of overfitting than the most-used multilayer feedfoward neural network (MFNN) model for dynamic EMG-torque modeling. Both EMG and kinematic features are included in the input of ANN, but the zero-EMG test shows that the trained ANN is part of the inverse joint dynamics rather than the EMG-torque model, and some random samples for ANN training are added to overcome this problem. The single-muscle test shows that an inappropriate choice of the motion type may cause the model to estimate wrong torque directions. After tuning and testing, the root mean square error (RMSE) across all subjects is 0.60±0.20 N.m.

To hit incoming balls back to a desired position, it is a key factor for table tennis robot to get racket parameters accurately. For modeling the stroke process, a novel model is built based on multiple neural networks. The input data for neural networks are the ball velocity differences during the stroke, and racket parameters are the output data. To reduce the influences from the invalid data, a neural network based on each empirical data is established. The training data are clustered based on the empirical data. The way of choosing a neural network to compute the racket parameters depends on the comparison between the new coming data and the empirical data. Moreover, a novel way based on a binocular vision system to verify the stroke model is proposed. Experimental results have showed that the stroke model created via the proposed method is applicable and the verification method is effective.

This paper presents a novel binarization technique for text images based on Markov Random Field (MRF) framework. We regard stroke as an obvious feature of text to produce clustering result, which will be optimized by MRF model combining color, texture, context features to get the final binarization. The main innovations of our method are: (1) the integrated image is split into sub-images on which we can automatically acquire seed pixels of foreground and background using stroke feature; and (2) diverse weights are attached to seed pixels according to their location information, then highly confident cluster centers of sub-image can be acquired by gathering weighted seeds. The experimental results show that our method is robust and accurate on both video and scene images.

In this paper, an infinite horizon optimal robust guaranteed cost control scheme of a class of continuous-time uncertain nonlinear systems is established based on adaptive dynamic programming. The main idea lies in that the optimal robust guaranteed cost control problem can be transformed into an optimal control problem. Actually, the optimal cost function of the nominal system is nothing but the optimal guaranteed cost of the original uncertain system. A critic neural network is constructed to help solving the modified Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation corresponding to the nominal system. Then, an additional stabilizing term is introduced to reinforce the updating process of the weight vector and reduce the requirement of an initial stabilizing control. An example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the present control approach.

Policy evaluation has long been one of the core issues of the online reinforcement learning, especially in the continuous state domain. In this paper, the issue is addressed by employing Gaussian processes to represent the action value function from the probability perspective. By modeling the return as a stochastic variable, the action value function can sequentially update according to observed variables such as state and reward by Bayesian inference during the policy evaluation. The update rule shows that it is a temporal difference learning method with the learning rate determined by the uncertainty of a collected sample. Incorporating the policy evaluation method with the e-greedy action selection method, we propose an online reinforcement learning algorithm referred as to Bayesian-SARSA. It is tested on some benchmark problems and the empirical results verifies its effectiveness.

Robot-assisted vascular interventions present promising trend for reducing the X-ray radiation to the surgeon during the operation. However, the control methods in the current vascular interventional robots only repeat the manipulation of the surgeon. While under certain circumstances, it is necessary to scale the manipulation of the surgeon to obtain a higher precision or a shorter manipulation time. A novel control method based on motion scaling for vascular interventional robot is proposed in this paper. The main idea of the method is to change the motion speed ratios between the master and the slave side. The motion scaling based control method is implemented in the vascular interventional robot we've developed before, so the operator can deliver the interventional devices under different motion scaling factors. Experiment studies verify the effectiveness of the motion scaling based control.

Short message is one of the most common communication media for mobile subscribers, so major mobile operators are devoted to improve their Short Message Service (SMS). However, the annoying and undesired messages, also named message spam or simply spam, not only worsen the users' experience, but also cause their complaints on SMS. In this paper, we present a novel Chinese SMS spam filtering framework based on AdaBoost algorithm to provide accurate and effective short messages classification. Three content-based weak filters are introduced to boost the performance of final classification decision. Results from Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) analysis prove the proposed method has such advantages as higher efficiency and fewer parameters over those established SMS spam filtering methods. The application of the proposed method is expected to block the most spam for mobile subscribers and improve the service quality of SMS. With simple data processing and few training parameters, the proposed method can be applied into the practice of short text classification.

In this paper, distributed containment control problems of general linear multi-agent systems are investigated. The objective is to make the followers in a multi-agent network converge to the convex hull spanned by some leaders whose control inputs are nonzero and not available to any *** mode surfaces are defined for the cases of reduced order and non-reduced order, respectively. For each case, fast sliding mode controllers are designed. It is shown that all the error trajectories exponentially reach the sliding mode surfaces in a finite time if for each follower, there exists at least one of the leaders who has a directed path to the follower, and the leaderscontrol inputs are bounded. The control Lyapunov function for exponential finite time stability, motivated by the fast terminal sliding mode control, is used to prove reachability of the sliding mode surfaces. Simulation examples are given to illustrate the theoretical results.
