Navigation Performance Evaluation for AutomaticGuided Vehicles
2015
International audience; —Automatic guided vehicles (AGVs), an industrial form of a mobile robot,typically navigate using a central computer commanding AGV movement on predefined paths. How well they follow these paths is not well-defined in research articles and their performance is reported in non-standard manufacturer specifications. Furthermore, AGV technology is advancing towards vision guidance to map and localize their position from onboard the vehicle, whereas performance evaluation of advanced navigation techniques is just beginning. This paper describes AGV experiments using ground truth measurement comparisonfor performance evaluationof AGV navigation. A generic test procedure and…
Survey of Research for Performance Measurement of Mobile Manipulators
2016
International audience; This survey provides the basis for developing research in the area of mobile manipulator performance measurement, an area that has relatively few research articles when compared to other mobile manipulator research areas. The survey provides a literature review of mobile manipulator research with examples of experimental applications. The survey also provides an extensive list of planning and control references as this has been the major research focus for mobile manipulators which factors into performance measurement of the system. The survey then reviews performance metrics considered for mobile robots, robot arms, and mobile manipulators and the systems that measu…

Utilisation des critères non financiers pour évaluer ou piloter la performance : analyse théorique
2005
The determinants which explain the use of non-financial measures in order to evaluate or drive the performance belong to disciplinary (contractual) and knowledge-based approaches. The aim of this paper is to propose a theoretical analysis of these explanations. For the disciplinary view, we realize a typology of the existing literature. We show that others theories explain the choice of non-financial measures too. For the knowledge-based view, we propose a synthesis of the existing literature in which the link between non-financial and theoretical explanations exists. Finally, we explain why the Balanced Scorecard can be associated to the disciplinary view and the Intellectual Capital to th…
Tiesību aizsardzības pagaidu līdzekļi Starptautiskajā investīciju strīdu izšķiršanas centrā (ICSID)
2014
Anotācija Autore pēta tiesību aizsardzības pagaidu līdzekļu institūtu ICSID šķīrējtiesas procesā – tā vēsturisko attīstību un interpretāciju ICSID šķīrējtiesu praksē. Autore darba ietvaros ir veikusi visaptverošu tiesību aizsardzības pagaidu līdzekļu veidu analīzi balstoties uz empīrisku ICSID šķīrējtiesas prakses analīzi. Lai ICSID šķīrējtiesa rekomendētu tiesību aizsardzības pagaidu līdzekļus, autore izdala procesuālus un materiālus priekšnoteikumus. Procesuālo priekšnoteikumu aspektā tiek pētīta tiesību aizsardzības pagaidu līdzekļu juridiskā daba. Materiālo priekšnoteikumu aspektā tiek analizēti apstākļi, kādos var tikt pieņemts lēmums par tiesību aizsardzības pagaidu līdzekļiem. Darbā …
Words, clauses, sentences, and T-units in learner language: Precise and objective units of measure?
2020
In research on learner language complexity, accuracy and fluency (CAF), syntactic complexity is often studied with quantitative measures based on words, clauses, sentences, and T-units. The findings have been mixed, but segmenting learner language into these units of measure has seldom been problematised, even if the need for accurate coding is well known. The present study explores words, clauses, sentences, and T-units as production units in written learner language using a corpus of 352 L2 Finnish texts (28,813 words). The results illustrate how written learner language can be hard to fit into the production unit categories, which are essential for the most frequently used quantitative m…
Predictors of changing patterns of adherence to containment measures during the early stage of COVID-19 pandemic: an international longitudinal study
2023
Abstract Background Identifying common factors that affect public adherence to COVID-19 containment measures can directly inform the development of official public health communication strategies. The present international longitudinal study aimed to examine whether prosociality, together with other theoretically derived motivating factors (self-efficacy, perceived susceptibility and severity of COVID-19, perceived social support) predict the change in adherence to COVID-19 containment strategies. Method In wave 1 of data collection, adults from eight geographical regions completed online surveys beginning in April 2020, and wave 2 began in June and ended in September 2020. Hypothesized pre…
