Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: In complex sea conditions with wind and waves, the relative motion between unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) requiring autonomous landing and ships is highly uncertain. In order to improve the accuracy of relative positioning and control during autonomous landing, and to ensure the safety and reliability of autonomous landing, a relative precise point positioning (RPPP) technique based on differential tropospheric error is proposed. The technology only relies on data link and carrier satellite positioning receiver to eliminate the same error of satellite positioning in the same environment and obtain accurate relative positioning. The combination of proportional navigation and linear quadratic …

Nonlinear System Identification Based On Combined Signal Sources, Tian Zheng, Feng Li, Naibao He, Ya Gu

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Aiming at the interference of noise in the nonlinear system, the identification modeling method of the neuro-fuzzy Hammerstein output error nonlinear system is considered.

The correlation analysis method and the recursive least square identification method based on auxiliary model technique are derived to estimate the parameters of dynamic linear block and nonlinear block, which can effectively suppress the interference of system output noise. Compared with least square algorithm, polynomial model and multi-innovation method, the simulation results demonstrate that the …

Stochastic Models For Resilience Assessment And Improvement, Weimar Ardila Rueda

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Resilience refers to the ability of a system to absorb and mitigate the impact of potential disruptions and return to normal operational conditions. The above notion of resilience allows us to distinguish two stages in a system's post-disruption response, the absorptive dimension and the recovery dimension. The absorptive dimension is related to a system's robustness and capacity to mitigate initial loss posterior to a disruption. Meanwhile, the recovery dimension is the system's rapidity to return and reach an acceptable level of functionality after the disruption occurrence.

A social-physical (SP) system's post-disruption response is related to its resilience capacity so building …

Bone is a highly hierarchical complex structure that consists of organic and mineral components represented by collagen molecules (CM) and hydroxyapatite crystals (HAC), respectively. The nanostructure of bone can significantly affect its mechanical properties. There is a lack of understanding how collagen fibrils (CF) in different orientations may affect the mechanical properties of the bone. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of interaction, orientation, and hydration on atomic models of the bone composed of collagen helix (CH) and HAC, using molecular dynamics simulations and therefrom bone-related disease origins.

A Retrieval Queueing Model With Feedback, Agassi Melikov, Srinivas Chakravarthy, Sevinc Aliyeva

Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering Publications

A multi-server retrial queuing model with feedback is considered in this paper.Input flow of calls is modeled using a Markovian Arrival Process (M AP) and the service time is assumed to follow an exponential distribution. An arriving call enters into service should there be a free server. Otherwise, in accordance to Bernoulli trials, the call will enter into an infinite orbit (referred to as a retrial orbit) to retry along with other calls to get into service or will leave the system forever. After obtaining a service each call, independent of the others, will either enter into a finite orbit …

Recall Distortion In Neural Network Pruning And The Undecayed Pruning Algorithm, Aidan Good, Jiaqi Lin, Hannah Sieg, Mikey Ferguson, Xin Yu, Shandian Zhe, Jerzy Wieczorek, Thiago Serra

Faculty Conference Papers and Presentations

Pruning techniques have been successfully used in neural networks to trade accuracy for sparsity. However, the impact of network pruning is not uniform: prior work has shown that the recall for underrepresented classes in a dataset may be more negatively affected. In this work, we study such relative distortions in recall by hypothesizing an intensification effect that is inherent to the model. Namely, that pruning makes recall relatively worse for a class with recall below accuracy and, conversely, that it makes recall relatively better for a class with recall above accuracy. In addition, we propose a new pruning algorithm aimed …

Using Strategic Options Development And Analysis (Soda) To Understand The Simulation Accessibility Problem, Andrew J. Collins, Ying Thaviphoke, Antuela A. Tako

Engineering Management & Systems Engineering Faculty Publications

Simulation modelling is applied to a wide range of problems, including defense and healthcare. However, there is a concern within the simulation community that there is a limited use and implementation of simulation studies in practice. This suggests that despite its benefits, simulation may not be reaching its potential in making a real-world impact. The main reason for this could be that simulation tools are not widely accessible in industry. In this paper, we investigate the issues that affect simulation modelling accessibility through a workshop with simulation practitioners. We use Strategic Options Development and Analysis (SODA), a problem-structuring approach that …

Efficient Navigation For Constrained Shortest Path With Adaptive Expansion Control, Wenwen Xia, Yuchen Li, Wentian Guo, Shenghong Li

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

In many route planning applications, finding constrained shortest paths (CSP) is an important and fundamental problem. CSP aims to find the shortest path between two nodes on a graph while satisfying a path constraint. Solving CSPs requires a large search space and is prohibitively slow on large graphs, even with the state-of-the-art parallel solution on GPUs. The reason lies in the lack of effective navigational information and pruning strategies in the search procedure. In this paper, we propose SPEC, a Shortest Path Enhanced approach for solving the exact CSP problem. Our design rationales of SPEC rely on the observation that …

Traumatic Brain Injury Biomarkers, Simulations And Kinetics, Celeste Hicks, Akshima Dhiman, Chauntel Barrymore, Tarun Goswami

Biomedical, Industrial & Human Factors Engineering Faculty Publications

This paper reviews the predictive capabilities of blood-based biomarkers to quantify traumatic brain injury (TBI). Biomarkers for concussive conditions also known as mild, to moderate and severe TBI identified along with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) that occur due to repeated blows to the head during one’s lifetime. Since the pathways of these biomarkers into the blood are not fully understood whether there is disruption in the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and the time it takes after injury for the expression of the biomarkers to be able to predict the injury effectively, there is a need to …
