Análisis para la Implementación del Sistema de Gestión de Calidad y del Sistema de Gestión Ambiental para el Laboratorio de Análisis Instrumental de …
2019
El Laboratorio de Análisis Instrumental ubicado en el 5to piso del Edificio No. 17 de la Escuela Politécnica Nacional brinda servicios de análisis de gases de pozo, biogás, biocidas, solventes, vidrios laminados y templados, entre otros; no obstante, no cuenta con un sistema integrado de Gestión que incluya la ISO 9001:2015 ni ISO 14001:2015, los cuales deberían ser una base fundamental a fin de permitir una dirección basada en la optimización de procesos con una disminución de los impactos ambientales que puede generar cualquier empresa. Con estos antecedentes, el presente trabajo tiene por objetivo desarrollar un mecanismo para implementación de un SIG y que vaya acorde a la normativa ISO…
Adaptive backstepping control of uncertain systems in the presence of unmodeled dynamics and time-varying delays
2016
In this paper, the problem of adaptive backstepping control for uncertain systems in the presence of unmodeled dynamics and input time-varying delays is studied. Under some mild assumptions, a robust adaptive controller is designed such that the system is globally stabilized by using adaptive backstepping technique. Meanwhile, the transient system performance in L2 and norms of system output can be adjusted by choosing the design parameters. Finally, a simulation example is given to show the effectiveness of the results.
Using Two-Level Context-Based Predictors for Assembly Assistance in Smart Factories
2020
The paper presents some preliminary results in engineering a context-aware assistive system for manual assembly tasks. It employs context-based predictors to suggest the next steps during the manufacturing process and is based on data collected from experiments with trainees in assembling a tablet. We were interested in finding correlations between the characteristics of the workers and the way they prefer to assemble the tablet. A certain predictor is then trained with correct assembly styles extracted from the collected data and assessed against the whole dataset. Thus, we found the predictor that best matches the assembly preferences.
Modified F-transform Based on B-splines
2018
The aim of this paper is to improve the F-transform technique based on B-splines. A modification of the F-transform of higher degree with respect to fuzzy partitions based on B-splines is done to extend the good approximation properties from the interval where the Ruspini condition is fulfilled to the whole interval under consideration. The effect of the proposed modification is characterized theoretically and illustrated numerically.
Application of Selected Methods of Black Box for Modelling the Settleability Process in Wastewater Treatment Plant
2017
Abstract The paper described how the results of measurements of inflow wastewater temperature in the chamber, a degree of external and internal recirculation in the biological-mechanical wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Cedzyna near Kielce, Poland, were used to make predictions of settleability of activated sludge. Three methods, namely: multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS), random forests (RF) and modified random forests (RF + SOM) were employed to compute activated sludge settleability. The results of analysis indicate that modified random forests demonstrate the best predictive abilities.
A Novel Intelligent Technique of Invariant Statistical Embedding and Averaging via Pivotal Quantities for Optimization or Improvement of Statistical …
2020
In the present paper, for intelligent constructing efficient (optimal, uniformly non-dominated, unbiased, improved) statistical decisions under parametric uncertainty, a new technique of invariant embedding of sample statistics in a decision criterion and averaging this criterion over pivots’ probability distributions is proposed. This technique represents a simple and computationally attractive statistical method based on the constructive use of the invariance principle in mathematical statistics. Unlike the Bayesian approach, the technique of invariant statistical embedding and averaging via pivotal quantities (ISE&APQ) is independent of the choice of priors and represents a novelty i…
Robust Network Agreement on Logical Information
2011
Abstract Logical consensus is an approach to distributed decision making which is based on the availability of a network of agents with incomplete system knowledge. The method requires the construction of a Boolean map which defines a dynamic system allowing the entire network to consent on a unique, global decision. Previous work by the authors proved the method to be viable for applications such as intrusion detection within a structured environment, when the agent's communication topology is known in advance. The current work aims at providing a fully distributed protocol, requiring no a priori knowledge of each agent's communication neighbors. The protocol allows the construction of a r…
Study Regarding the Optimal Milling Parameters for Finishing 3D Printed Parts from ABS and PLA Materials
2018
Abstract In this paper we proposed to identify the optimum milling parameter required for finishing processes performed on 3Dprinted parts from ABS and PLA materials. We have identified the optimum milling parameters for a constant spindle speed of 3500 rot/min for face milling and profile contouring operations with different tools diameters. The study was performed on 3D printed specimens from ABS and PLA materials.
LMI-based 2D-3D Registration: from Uncalibrated Images to Euclidean Scene
2015
International audience; This paper investigates the problem of registering a scanned scene, represented by 3D Euclidean point coordinates , and two or more uncalibrated cameras. An unknown subset of the scanned points have their image projections detected and matched across images. The proposed approach assumes the cameras only known in some arbitrary projective frame and no calibration or autocalibration is required. The devised solution is based on a Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) framework that allows simultaneously estimating the projective transformation relating the cameras to the scene and establishing 2D-3D correspondences without triangulating image points. The proposed LMI framewo…
Adaptive-gain extended Kalman filter: Extension to the continuous-discrete case
2009
In the present article we propose a nonlinear observer that merges the behaviors 1) of an extended Kalman filter, mainly designed to smooth off noise , and 2) of high-gain observers devoted to handle large perturbations in the state estimation. We specifically aim at continuous-discrete systems. The strategy consists in letting the high-gain self adapt according to the innovation. We define innovation computed over a time window and justify its usage via an important lemma. We prove the general convergence of the resulting observer.
