Published: July 2019

One of the active challenges in multi-robot missions is related to managing operator workload and situational awareness. Currently, the operators are trained to use interfaces, but in the near future this can be turned inside out: the interfaces will adapt to operators so as to facilitate their tasks. To this end, the interfaces should manage models of operators and adapt the information to their states and preferences. This work proposes a videogame-based approach to classify operator behavior and predict their actions in order to improve teleoperated multi-robot missions. First, groups of operators are generated according to their strategies by means of clustering algorithms. Second, the operators’ strategies are predicted, taking into account their models. Multiple information sources and modeling methods are used to determine the approach that maximizes the mission goal. The results demonstrate that predictions based on previous data from single operators increase the probability of success in teleoperated multi-robot missions by 19%, whereas predictions based on operator clusters increase this probability of success by 28%.

Published: July 2019

The cooperation between humans and robots is becoming increasingly important in our society. Consequently, there is a growing interest in the development of models that can enhance and enrich the interaction between humans and robots. A key challenge in the Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) field is to provide robots with cognitive and affective capabilities, by developing architectures that let them establish empathetic relationships with users. Over the last several years, multiple models were proposed to face this open-challenge. This work provides a survey of the most relevant attempts/works. In details, it offers an overview of the architectures present in literature focusing on three specific aspects of HRI: the development of adaptive behavioral models, the design of cognitive architectures, and the ability to establish empathy with the user. The research was conducted within two databases: Scopus and Web of Science. Accurate exclusion criteria were applied to screen the 4916 articles found. At the end, 56 articles were selected. For each work, an evaluation of the model is made. Pros and cons of each work are detailed by analyzing the aspects that can be improved to establish an enjoyable interaction between robots and users.
A Method for Energy Balance and Data Transmission Optimal Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks
Authors: Liu Xuesong , Wu Jie
Published: July 2019

Wireless sensor networks are widely used in many fields. Nodes in the network are typically powered by batteries. Because the energy consumption of wireless communication is related to the transmission distance, the energy consumption of nodes in different locations is different, resulting in uneven energy distribution of nodes. In some special applications, all nodes are required to work at the same time, and the uneven energy distribution makes the effective working time of the system subject to the node with the largest energy consumption. The commonly used clustering protocol can play a role in balancing energy consumption, but it does not achieve optimal energy consumption. This paper proposes to use the power supply line to connect the nodes to fully balance the energy. The connection scheme with the shortest power line length is also proposed. On the basis of energy balance, the method of transmitting data with the best hop count is proposed, which fully reduces the power consumption of the data transmission. The simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively reduce the energy consumption and prolong the lifetime of wireless sensor networks.
Exploring GNSS Crowdsourcing Feasibility: Combinations of Measurements for Modeling Smartphone and Higher End GNSS Receiver Performance
Authors: Lehtola Ville V. , Söderholm Stefan , Koivisto Michelle , Montloin Leslie
Published: July 2019

GNSS receiver data crowdsourcing is of interest for multiple applications, e.g., weather monitoring. The bottleneck in this technology is the quality of the GNSS receivers. Therefore, we lay out in an introductory manner the steps to estimate the performance of an arbitrary GNSS receiver via the measurement errors related to its instrumentation. Specifically, we do not need to know the position of the receiver antenna, which allows also for the assessment of smartphone GNSS receivers having integrated antennas. Moreover, the method is independent of atmospheric errors so that no ionospheric or tropospheric correction services provided by base stations are needed. Error models for performance evaluation can be calculated from receiver RINEX (receiver independent exchange format)data using only ephemeris corrections. For the results, we present the quality of different receiver grades through parametrized error models that are likely to be helpful in stochastic modeling, e.g., for Kalman filters, and in assessing GNSS receiver qualities for crowdsourcing applications. Currently, the typical positioning precision for the latest smartphone receivers is around the decimeter level, while for a professional-grade receiver, it is within a few millimeters.
Performance Analysis of Wireless Information Surveillance in Machine-Type Communication at Finite Blocklength Regime
Authors: Dong Ruonan , Li Baogang , Yan Binyang
Published: July 2019

The Internet of Things (IoT) will feature pervasive sensing and control capabilities via the massive deployment of machine-type communication devices in order to greatly improve daily life. However, machine-type communications can be illegally used (e.g., by criminals or terrorists) which is difficult to monitor, and thus presents new security challenges. The information exchanged in machine-type communications is usually transmitted in short packets. Thus, this paper investigates a legitimate surveillance system via proactive eavesdropping at finite blocklength regime. Under the finite blocklength regime, we analyze the channel coding rate of the eavesdropping link and the suspicious link. We find that the legitimate monitor can still eavesdrop the information sent by the suspicious transmitter as the blocklength decreases, even when the eavesdropping is failed under the Shannon capacity regime. Moreover, we define a metric called the effective eavesdropping rate and study the monotonicity. From the analysis of monotonicity, the existence of a maximum effective eavesdropping rate for a moderate or even high signal-to-noise (SNR) is verified. Finally, numerical results are provided and discussed. In the simulation, we also find that the maximum effective eavesdropping rate slowly increases with the blocklength.

Activity recognition, a key component in pervasive healthcare monitoring, relies on classification algorithms that require labeled data of individuals performing the activity of interest to train accurate models. Labeling data can be performed in a lab setting where an individual enacts the activity under controlled conditions. The ubiquity of mobile and wearable sensors allows the collection of large datasets from individuals performing activities in naturalistic conditions. Gathering accurate data labels for activity recognition is typically an expensive and time-consuming process. In this paper we present two novel approaches for semi-automated online data labeling performed by the individual executing the activity of interest. The approaches have been designed to address two of the limitations of self-annotation: (i) The burden on the user performing and annotating the activity, and (ii) the lack of accuracy due to the user labeling the data minutes or hours after the completion of an activity. The first approach is based on the recognition of subtle finger gestures performed in response to a data-labeling query. The second approach focuses on labeling activities that have an auditory manifestation and uses a classifier to have an initial estimation of the activity, and a conversational agent to ask the participant for clarification or for additional data. Both approaches are described, evaluated in controlled experiments to assess their feasibility and their advantages and limitations are discussed. Results show that while both studies have limitations, they achieve 80% to 90% precision.
Nanoparticle Assisted EOR during Sand-Pack Flooding: Electrical Tomography to Assess Flow Dynamics and Oil Recovery
Authors: Nwufoh Phillip , Hu Zhongliang , Wen Dongsheng , Wang Mi
Published: July 2019

Silica nanoparticles have been shown to exhibit many characteristics that allow for additional oil to be recovered during sand-pack flooding experiments. Additionally various imaging techniques have been employed in the past to visually compare flooding procedures including x-ray computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging; however, these techniques require the sample to be destroyed or sliced after the flooding experiment finishes. Electrical resistance tomography (ERT) overcomes these limitations by offering a non-destructive visualization method allowing for online images to be taken during the flooding process by the determination of spatial distribution of electrical resistivity, thus making it suitable for sand-packs. During the scope of this research a new sand-pack system and methodology was created which utilized ERT as a monitoring tool. Two concentrations, 0.5 wt% and 1.0 wt%, of SiO2 nanoparticles were compared with runs using only brine to compare the recovery efficiency and explore the ability of ERT to monitor the flooding process. Electrical resistance tomography was found to be an effective tool in monitoring local recovery efficiency revealing 1.0 wt% SiO2 to be more effective than 0.5 wt% and brine only runs during the scope of this research. A new method involving the slope function in excel was used to compare the effects of nanofluids on resistivity trends also revealing information about the rate of recovery against time. SiO2 nanofluid recovery mechanisms such interfacial tension reduction and viscosity enhancement were then considered to explain why the nanofluids resulted in greater oil recovery.
Research on Subdivision System of Sin-Cos Encoder Based on Zero Phase Bandpass Filter
Authors: Zhao Haoning , Xu Jiazhong , Zhang Haibin , Liu Zhen , Dong Shi
Published: July 2019

A novel high-precision subdivision system for high-speed encoders is designed in this work. The system is designed with an arc second of Sin-Cos Encoder (SCE) based on zero phase bandpass filter. The system collects the analog output signals of an encoder with a high-speed data acquisition system (DAS); the noise of a digital signal can be effectively eliminated by zero phase bandpass filter with appropriate prior parameters. Finally, the actual rotation angle of the encoder is calculated by the software subdivision technique in the system. The software subdivision technique includes two methods, which are the Analog Pulse Counter (APC) and the Arc Tangent Subdivision (ATS). The APC method calculates the encoder angle by counting the analog pulses acquired by the arc tangent signal. The ATS method calculates the encoder angle by computing the arc tangent results of each point. The accuracy and stability of the system are first verified with a simulated signal; second, the real signals of an SCE are acquired by a high speed DAS on a test bench of a precision reducer, which is employed in industrial robots. The results of the proposed system are compared. The experimental results show that the system can significantly improve the accuracy of the encoder angle calculation, with controllable costs.
Smart Water Meter Using Electrical Resistance Tomography
Authors: Wu Chenning , Hutton Martin , Soleimani Manuchehr
Published: July 2019

Smart flow monitoring is critical for sewer system management. Obstructions and restrictions to flow in discharge pipes are common and costly. We propose the use of electrical resistance tomography modality for the task of smart wastewater metering. This paper presents the electronics hardware design and bespoke signal processing to create an embedded sensor for measuring flow rates and flow properties, such as constituent materials in sewage or grey water discharge pipes of diameters larger than 250 mm. The dedicated analogue signal conditioning module, zero-cross switching scheme, and real-time operating system enable the system to perform low-cost serial measurements while still providing the capability of real-time capturing. The system performance was evaluated via both stationary and dynamic experiments. A data acquisition speed of 14 frames per second (fps) was achieved with an overall signal to noise ratio of at least 59.54 dB. The smallest sample size reported was 0.04% of the domain size in stationary tests, illustrating good resolution. Movements have been successfully captured in dynamic tests, with a clear definition being achieved of objects in each reconstructed image, as well as a fine overall visualization of movement.
Automatic Classification Using Machine Learning for Non-Conventional Vessels on Inland Waters
Authors: Wlodarczyk-Sielicka Marta , Polap Dawid
Published: July 2019

The prevalent methods for monitoring ships are based on automatic identification and radar systems. This applies mainly to large vessels. Additional sensors that are used include video cameras with different resolutions. Such systems feature cameras that capture images and software that analyze the selected video frames. The analysis involves the detection of a ship and the extraction of features to identify it. This article proposes a technique to detect and categorize ships through image processing methods that use convolutional neural networks. Tests to verify the proposed method were carried out on a database containing 200 images of four classes of ships. The advantages and disadvantages of implementing the proposed method are also discussed in light of the results. The system is designed to use multiple existing video streams to identify passing ships on inland waters, especially non-conventional vessels.
Regressions during Reading
Authors: Inhoff Albrecht W. , Kim Andrew , Radach Ralph
Published: July 2019

Readers occasionally move their eyes to prior text. We distinguish two types of these movements (regressions). One type consists of relatively large regressions that seek to re-process prior text and to revise represented linguistic content to improve comprehension. The other consists of relatively small regressions that seek to correct inaccurate or premature oculomotor programming to improve visual word recognition. Large regressions are guided by spatial and linguistic knowledge, while small regressions appear to be exclusively guided by knowledge of spatial location. There are substantial individual differences in the use of regressions, and college-level readers often do not regress even when this would improve sentence comprehension.
RUSŲ KARININKIJA KASDIENINIAME IR ŠVENTINIAME XVIII A. VILNIAUS GYVENIME:
TAIKAUS SUGYVENIMO REGIMYBĖ
Authors: Balaišytė Lina
Published: July 2019

Life in the eighteenth century Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was signified
by active interference of the Russian Empire in the politics of the state. Imperial
army was continuously summoned to reinforce Russian interests and to support
internal feuds of the Commonwealth. Lithuanian and Polish society was forced
to reconcile
with the presence of foreign army in the country, whereas Russian
officers sought to utilize their presence in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth
in enhancing useful personal relationships and for the purposes of propaganda.
The article explores the relationship between the society of the Grand Duchy of
Lithuania and the Russian officers in daily life, how both sides built this coexistence,
and how it was changing depending on circumstances.
Analysis of sources on everyday life of Vilnius showed that daily life of its
citizens was burdened by the obligation of housing and feeding the army, although
in ordinarily they tried not to confront this menacing power. People wanted to
earn favour of the Russian army leadership and be relieved of this duty through
gifts, salutations and other signs of respect. On the other side, Russian officers
depended not only on their power, they also tried to form good relationships
with the high society and communities, e. g. officers visited monasteries and pass
greetings during church celebrations. A pretext to assemble the nobility was a celebration
dedicated to honour the rulers of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth
and Russia. Russian officers also demonstrated signs of respect to the loyal high
standing officials of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. They also tried to earn favour
of the wider public through events of mass entertainment, e. g. the carnivals were
made open to the citizens from various strata. The public could be rallied to watch
show exercises of the Russian army, which was a spectacle for the curious citizens
from lower social strata, and for the higher level citizens it was an opportunity
to strengthen ties that could ensure their future privileges. Multiple festivities
organized by the Russian officers were implemented with propaganda objectives
in mind. Through such spectacular and luxury events they tried to demonstrate
power and their decorations usually repeated motifs of the glorification of the
Court of Catherine II. Celebrations, their decorations, occasional literature were
some of the tools aimed at supporting the patronage of Russia. Existing sources
on everyday life do not permit speaking about the moral side of the relationship
with the Russian officers. Most likely, the start of the Four-Year Sejm, when the
aim to strengthen the statehood was expressed in clearer terms, collaboration with
the foreign power was not considered treason and condemned.

Keywords: Vilnius, Russian army, everyday life, festivities, spectacles.
Evaluating possible acute coronary syndrome in primary care: the value of signs, symptoms, and plasma heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP). A diagnostic study
Authors: Willemsen Robert TA , Winkens Bjorn , Kietselaer Bas LJH , Smolinska Agnieszka , Buntinx Frank , Glatz Jan FC , Dinant Geert-Jan
Published: July 2019

Background

Additional diagnostic means could be of added value when evaluating possible acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in primary care.

Aim

To determine whether heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP)-based point-of-care (POC) biomarker testing, embedded in a clinical decision rule (CDR), is helpful to the GP when evaluating possible ACS.

Design & setting

A prospective, non-randomised, double-blinded, diagnostic derivation study was undertaken, with a delayed-type cross-sectional diagnostic model among GPs in the Netherlands and Belgium.

Method

Signs and symptoms predicting acute myocardial infarction (AMI) or ACS were identified using both logistic regression analysis, and classification and regression trees (CART). Diagnostic values of the POC H-FABP test (cut-off value 4 ng/ml) alone and as part of a CDR were determined.

Results

A total of 303 participants (48.8% male) with chest pain or discomfort who had consulted a GP were enrolled. ACS was found in 32 (10.6%) of these 303 patients. For ACS, sensitivity and negative predictive value (NPV) of the POC H-FABP test was 25.8% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 12.5 to 44.9) and 91.6% (95% CI = 87.6% to 94.5%), respectively. The area under the receiver operating curve of the optimal CDR was 0.78 for ACS.

Conclusion

Sensitivity of the current H-FABP POC test (cut-off value 4 ng/ml) as a stand-alone test is poor, either owing to limitations of the marker or of the test device. Usability of a CDR derived from these results is doubtful: the number of ACS cases missed by the GP is reduced but, as a consequence, disproportionally more ACS-negative patients are referred.

O breve texto de Walter Benjamin sobre 1871, incluído nas notas de seu livro inacabado sobre a Paris do século XIX (1927-1940), permanece ainda hoje enigmático. O que significou a insurreição da Comuna de Paris para o emigrado alemão nos anos 1930? Que esperanças representou, para aquele que escrevia durante a Frente Popular (1936-1938), o movimento social francês e suas revoluções abortadas de 1789? Como age a memória coletiva e as paixões sociais num momento tal como o das greves de 1936? O presente artigo é uma tentativa de responder a essas perguntas.
Géographie historique de l’architecture romane en Italie septentrionale. État des questions
Authors: Tosco Carlo
Published: July 2019

Architecture in northern Italy is traditionally defined as “Lombard”, but the meaning of the term is ambiguous. To understand its historical and linguistic origins, the article follows the development of 19th and 20th century studies by attempting to define the characteristics of an extremely complex and varied monumental landscape. Between the 10th and 12th century, the Lombard region was one of the most urbanized in Europe and architecture developed there mainly in the urban centers, and in different ways with no single leading center. The birth of the communes around 1100 led to the creation of large worksites, attesting to the vitality and cohesion of the cities around the cult of their patron saint. In the second part of the article, the most original tendencies in Lombard architecture are outlined along two thematic lines : the affirmation of the role of architects who, all over northern Italy, were publicly recognized and honored, and the relation between architecture and liturgy, an area of research that has greatly evolved in recent years.
L’architecture romane en Piémont et dans le Val d’Aoste. État des questions
Authors: Tosco Carlo , Vescovi Michele Luigi
Published: July 2019

Research on architecture in Piemonte and Val d’Aosta from the 10th to 12th century has made important headway in recent years thanks to systematic inventories and excavations. Piemonte, which did not exist as a geographic entity in the Middle Ages, was part of the large Lombard region, which corresponds with the northwest region of the Italian kingdom. Around the year 1000, major projects are linked to bishops and the reconstruction of cathedrals, especially at Ivrea and Aosta. Texts and monuments show that bishops were also active in their dioceses, the best known example being that of Landolfo in Turin. Seigniorial dynasties also invested in buildings that express their prestige (Sezzadio, Suze). The reconstruction of the Acqui Cathedral, consecrated in 1067, marked the maturation of Romanesque art in the region. In the 12th century, important constructions reflect established contacts with France at a moment when homogeneous zones using similar construction techniques begin to be defined, as at Monferrat.
L’architecture romane en Ligurie. État des questions
Authors: Caldano Simone
Published: July 2019

In Liguria l’architettura religiosa presenta caratteri differenti nell’xI e nel xII secolo, sia nella diffusione dei monumenti sul territorio, sia nelle tipologie architettoniche e decorative. Nell’xI secolo le evidenze si concentrano soprattutto nel Ponente ligure, con ampio utilizzo di pilastri privi di articolazioni secondarie, coperture a tetto e modulazioni parietali che impiegano principalmente specchiature orlate da archetti pensili a coppie : così a San Paragorio di Noli, nella cattedrale di Ventimiglia a San Tommaso di Pigna e in molti altri edifici. La presenza di molte chiese ad aula unica monoabsidata documenta la capillarità del fervore costruttivo, anche in insediamenti di piccole dimensioni. Per il xII secolo si conservano molte testimonianze soprattutto nella città di Genova : la refrattarietà all’utilizzo delle coperture voltate continua, inoltre si utilizzano impianti con finti matronei e torre nolare, come alla cattedrale di San Lorenzo e nella chiesa di San Donato ; ma anche impianti basilicali più semplici (San Siro di Struppa e altri) e, frequentemente, la pianta ad aula unica con transetto sporgente, molto diffusa nel territorio.
L’art roman en Lombardie. État des questions
Authors: Schiavi Luigi Carlo
Published: July 2019

Romanesque art in Lombardy is striking for its lack of typological and technical uniformity, due to the use of a variety of materials : stone in the alpine and sub-alpine zones, brick (reused brick until the end of the 11th century) in the plain, in the south. The formulation in Lombardy of a new architectural style springs from a wider geographical and cultural context, that of the “first Romanesque art”. This architectural renewal is closely related to episcopal reform in the framework of the Ottonian and Salien Reichskirchensystem. The most emblematic figures are Aribert d’Intimiano for the diocese of Milan and the bishops of Brescia and Como, who remained faithful to the Empire. In the mid-11th century there are important experiments made in Santa Maria Maggiore at Lomello, in the baptistery of Galliano and in the San Sepulchro in Milan, both in the architectural conceptions and structural solutions (vaulting in stone, material division of bays, articulation of the supports). The unfortunate disappearance of many monuments in the second half of the 11th century prohibits a serial vision of the process that leads to the mature phase of Romanesque architecture at the end of the century, which coincides with the emergence of the Lombard communes. The most representative buildings, such as Sant’Ambrogio in Milan and San Michele Maggiore in Pavia, adopt tribunes with alternating supports and ribbed vaults, and monumental sculpture takes on unprecedented importance. At the same moment, reconstruction work begins on Cremona Cathedral, one of the most problematic Romanesque buildings in northern Italy, which is situated halfway between the Lombard world and the cathedrals in Po valley (Modena and Piacenza).
Les armatures de fer de la cathédrale de Bourges : nouvelles données, nouvelles lectures
Authors: L'Héritier Maxime
Published: July 2019

The Cathedral Saint-Etienne in Bourges is the first major Gothic building to have been examined with regard to the use of iron in its construction. The study, made in the 1990s, posed questions about the role and origin of the iron armatures identified in the structure of the edifice. Increased research in this area in the intervening years and the development of archaeometric methods applied to metals have allowed us to cast new light on these questions. The present article publishes the results of an archaeological study of the construction of Bourges Cathedral undertaken in 2010-2011, in conjunction with the chemical analysis of 70 iron samples and 58 lead sealings. The integration of the armatures in the masonry, as well as their chemical composition, reveals that the truss rods and chains installed in the triforium are contemporary with the rising structure, but that their installation was not foreseen from the beginning. They were implanted only after construction was under way, probably in order to consolidate disorders observed in the unfinished structure. The results of this study make Bourges Cathedral a benchmark in the history of the use of iron in Gothic architecture and herald a reconsideration of the evolution of the know-how of medieval builders with regard to the progressive integration of this material in masonry in the early thirteenth century, the fruit of constant experimentation.
Un écho de la sculpture du XVe siècle à la cathédrale de Tours : les moulages des voussures disparues
Authors: Guillouët Jean-Marie
Published: July 2019

Les portails de la cathédrale Saint-Gatien de Tours, construits à partir de la décennie 1430 pour clore la nef rayonnante de l’édifice, passent pour avoir été considérablement altérés par le vandalisme révolutionnaire puis par le zèle des restaurateurs du xixe siècle. Au point qu’il ne serait aujourd’hui plus possible d’avoir accès à leurs dispositions d’origine, tant en ce qui concerne leur iconographie que le style de leur sculpture. La reprise systématique de la documentation figurée des lourdes campagnes de restauration conduites à partir de 1842 comme l’exploitation des vestiges épigraphiques de ces voussures, permet pourtant de reconstituer avec précision et une relative assurance un programme iconographique à la hauteur des ambitions du monument. Mais ce sont surtout onze figures en plâtre, passées jusqu’à présent inaperçues au sein du dépôt de la «chambre des métaux » de la cathédrale, qui se révèlent être du plus haut intérêt. Un examen rapproché montre en effet qu’il s’agit des moulages réalisés par Gustave Guérin sur les sculptures originales des portails avant leur remplacement. Bien qu’ainsi révélée à travers le filtre de la copie, la sculpture des voussures de Saint-Gatien de Tours sort donc partiellement d’un long oubli et doit être mise en relation avec celle du chantier contemporain de Nantes. Ces deux édifices constituent, au xve siècle, les deux pôles majeurs de cet espace artistiquement et culturellement cohérent, gravitant autour du domaine royal et de ses marges et appelé à devenir le coeur de cet art reçu comme spécifiquement français dès les premières décennies du siècle suivant.
