Abstract

The increased demand for liquid level measurement has been a key factor in designing accurate and reliable control systems. Here, a study was carried out to calculate the liquid level in a tank using a pressure sensor for changes in inlet liquid parameters like temperature, density and velocity. Prediction of their variables for the long term is essential due to the randomness present in the input and measurement. Hence, observer design for state estimation of a non-linear dynamic system with uncertainties in the measurement and process becomes important. This work provides a feedback observer solution for a system with multiple inputs and single measurable output. A full state observer model is developed to estimate a system’s states with a sensor placed at a definite position from the pipe’s input point through which the liquid flows at different densities and temperatures. Using the observability properties, Luenberger full state observer is designed by various methods, verified using MATLAB and SIMULINK for the system state estimation. To incorporate process noise and measurement noise, the Kalman estimator is integrated with the system. Chaotic systems are susceptible to initial conditions, variations in parameters and are complex dynamic systems. However, providing consistently precise measurements through particular meters necessitates time-consuming computations that can be reduced by employing machine learning approaches that make use of optimizers. The results obtained are compared with the prediction models obtained using Artificial Neural Networks and are validated through the readings obtained from the experimental setup.

Abstract

Recently, there has been increasing attention paid to AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) in factories and warehouses to enhance the level of automation. In order to improve productivity, it is necessary to increase the efficiency of the AGV, including working speed and accuracy. This study presents a fuzzy-PID controller for improving the efficiency of a line-following AGV. A line-following AGV suffers from tracking errors, especially on curved paths, which causes a delay in the lap time. The fuzzy-PID controller in this study mimics the principle of human vehicle control as the situation-aware speed adjustment on curved paths. Consequently, it is possible to reduce the tracking error of AGV and improve its speed. Experimental results show that the Fuzzy-PID controller outperforms the PID controller in both accuracy and speed, especially the lap time of a line-following AGV is enhanced up to 28.6% with the proposed fuzzy-PID controller compared to that with the PID controller only.

Abstract

The article deals with the management of a fleet of AMR robots that perform logistics in production. The entire system design is implemented in the ROS environment - state of the art for the development in robotics. Four already available solutions for fleet management in ROSe are analyzed in detail in the article. These solutions fail when there is a need to change the route plan in a dynamically changing environment. Likewise, some did not sufficiently synchronize the movement of the robots and collisions occurred or, with a larger number of robots, represented an enormous computational load. Our solution was designed to be as simple and reliable as possible for industrial use. It is based on a combination of semi-autonomous and centralized approach. A hybrid map is used for planning the movement of the robot fleet, which provides the advantages of both a metric and a topological map. This route map for a fleet of robots can be easily drawn in readily available CAD software. Synchronization of robots was designed on the principle of semaphore or mutex, which enabled the use of bidirectional paths. The results are verified in simulations and were aimed at verifying the proposed robot synchronization. It was confirmed that the proposed synchronization slows down the robots, but there were no collision situations. By separating route planning from synchronization, we simplified the entire fleet management process and thus created a very efficient system for network and hardware resources. In addition, the system is easily expandable.

Abstract

Over the years, researchers have addressed several control problems of various classes of nonlinear systems. This article considers a class of uncertain strict feedback nonlinear system with unknown external disturbances and asymmetric input dead-zone. Designing a tracking controller for such system is very complex and challenging. This article aims to design a finite-time adaptive neural network backstepping tracking control for the nonlinear system under consideration. In addition,  all unknown disturbances and nonlinear functions are lumped together and approximated by radial basis function neural network (RBFNN). Moreover, no prior  information about the boundedness of the dead-zone parameters is required in the controller design. With the aid of a Lyapunov candidate function, it has been shown that the tracking errors converge near the origin in finite-time. Simulation results testify that the proposed control approach can force the output to follow the reference trajectory in a short time despite the presence of  asymmetric input dead-zone and external disturbances. At last, in order to highlight the effectiveness of the proposed control method, it is applied to a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).

Abstract

It is known, that unlike the Kalman filter (KF) finite impulse response (FIR) filters allow to avoid the divergence and unsatisfactory object tracking connected with temporary perturbations and abrupt object changes. The main challenge is to provide the appropriate choice of a sliding window size for them. In this paper, the new finite impulse response (FIR) filtering algorithm with the adaptive horizon size selection is proposed. The algorithm uses the receding horizon optimal (RHOFIR) filter which receives estimates, an abrupt change detector and an adaptive recurrent mechanism for choosing the window size. Monotonicity and asymptotic properties of the estimation error covariance matrix and the RHOFIR filter gain are established. These results form a solid foundation for justifying the principal possibility to tune the filter gain using them and the developed adaptation mechanism. The proposed algorithm (the ARHOFIR filter) allows reducing the impact of disturbances by varying adaptively the sliding window size. The possibility of this follows from the fact that the window size affects the filter characteristics in different ways. The ARHOFIR filter chooses a large horizon size in the absence of abrupt disturbances and a little during the time intervals of their action. Due to this, it has better transient characteristics compared to the KF and RHOFIR filter at intervals where there is temporary uncertainty and may provide the same accuracy of estimates as the KF in their absence. By simulation, it is shown that the ARHOFIR filter is more robust than the KF and RHOFIR filter for the temporarily uncertain systems.

Abstract

Traditionally, the farmers manage the crops from the early growth stage until the mature harvest stage by manually identifying and monitoring plant diseases, nutrient deficiencies, controlled irrigation, and controlled fertilizers and pesticides. Even the farmers have difficulty detecting crop diseases using their naked eyes due to several similar crop diseases. Identifying the correct diseases is crucial since it can improve the quality and quantity of crop production. With the advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, all crop-managing tasks can be automated using a robot that mimics a farmer's ability. However, designing a robot with human capability, especially in detecting the crop's diseases in real-time, is another challenge to consider. Other research works are focusing on improving the mean average precision and the best result reported so far is 93% of mean Average Precision (mAP) by YOLOv5. This paper focuses on object detection of the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture-based to detect the disease of solanaceous crops for robot vision. This study's contribution involved reporting the developmental specifics and a suggested solution for issues that appear along with the conducted study. In addition, the output of this study is expected to become the algorithm of the robot's vision. This study uses images of four crops (tomato, potato, eggplant, and pepper), including 23 classes of healthy and diseased crops infected on the leaf and fruits. The dataset utilized combines the public dataset (PlantVillage) and self-collected samples. The total dataset of all 23 classes is 16580 images divided into three parts: training set, validation set, and testing set. The dataset used for training is 88% of the total dataset (15000 images), 8% of the dataset performed a validation process (1400 images), and the rest of the 4% dataset is for the test process (699 images). The performances of YOLOv5 were more robust in terms of 94.2% mAP, and the speed was slightly faster than Scaled-YOLOv4. This object detection-based approach has proven to be a promising solution in efficiently detecting crop disease in real-time.

Abstract

In disaster areas, robot manipulators are used to rescue and clearance of sites. Because of the damaged area, they encounter disturbances like obstacles, and limited workspace to explore the area and to achieve the location of the victims. Increasing the degrees of freedom is required to boost the adaptability of manipulators to avoid disturbances, and to obtain the fast desired position and precise movements of the end-effector. These robot manipulators offer a reliable way to handle the barrier challenges since they can search in places that humans can't reach. In this research paper, the 9-DOF robotic manipulator is designed, and an analytical model is developed to examine the system’s behavior in different scenarios. The kinematic and dynamic representation of the proposed model is analyzed to obtain the translation or rotation, and joint torques to achieve the expected position, velocity, and acceleration respectively. The number of degrees may be raised to avoid disturbances, and to obtain the fast desired position and precise movements of the end-effector. The simulation of developed models is performed to ensure the adaptable movement of the manipulators working in distinct configurations and controlling their motion thoroughly and effectively. In the proposed configuration the joints can easily be moved to achieve the desired position of the end-effector and the results are satisfactory. The simulation results show that the redundant manipulator achieves the victim location with various configurations of the manipulator. Results reveal the effectiveness and efficacy of the proposed system.

Abstract

The dynamic development of computer and software technology in recent years was accompanied by the expansion and widespread implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) based methods in many aspects of human life. A prominent field where rapid progress was observed are high‐throughput methods in biology that generate big amounts of data that need to be processed and analyzed. Therefore, AI methods are more and more applied in the biomedical field, among others for RNA‐protein binding sites prediction, DNA sequence function prediction, protein‐protein interaction prediction, or biomedical image classification. Stem cells are widely used in biomedical research, e.g., leukemia or other disease studies. Our proposed approach of Deep Bayesian Neural Network (DBNN) for the personalized treatment of leukemia cancer has shown a significant tested accuracy for the model. DBNNs used in this study was able to classify images with accuracy exceeding 98.73%. This study depicts that the DBNN can classify cell cultures only based on unstained light microscope images which allow their further use. Therefore, building a bayesian‐based model to great help during commercial cell culturing, and possibly a first step in the process of creating an automated/semiautomated neural network‐based model for classification of good and bad quality cultures when images of such will be available.
