In industries loading and unloading of heavy loads manually is one of the most important task which turns out to be quite difficult, time-consuming and risky for humans. This paper illustrates the mechanical design of the industry based automated robot which include: Ackerman Steering Mechanism and Differential Mechanism. Ackerman Steering allows front two wheels to turn left and right in the track without going out of the track. Differential has been mounted with two back wheels and a DC motor has been used with its controller to start motion of the robot. The autonomous robot is designed to start its movement from a starting position where goods are loaded on it, then follow a path of white line drawn on black surface and unload goods by itself after reaching a destination place. Digital Line Following sensor has been mounted in front of the robot so that the sensor can detect path by emitting and receiving signals allowing it to move in the pre-defined track having left and right turns while carrying goods from starting position to the destination. The main objective is to load and unload heavy goods that has been achieved by two large linear actuators for producing required torque and force necessary to unload heavy loads up to 150kg sideways to the ground safely. Besides, the robot has been built up having the ability to avoid collision with any obstacles that come in its way. Building an industrial robot with moderate speed, good efficiency for loading and unloading purpose within a short time to ease human suffering has been the main focus of this paper.

On a ship's bridge, the deck officer who has the duty of navigating and keeping watch is known as the officer of the watch (OOW). Many of the causes of accidents relate not only to the OOW's knowledge and capability, but to his or her cognitive process. The cognitive reliability and error analysis method (CREAM) is a technique for analyzing human reliability. The CREAM organizes interactions between humans and the environment by using the human-technology-organization triad. The CREAM defines common performance conditions (CPCs), the dependencies between them, and the links between antecedents and consequences, thus clarifying the background factors that affect human performance. This method has mainly been used in the nuclear industry, but since conditions change across domains, CPCs apply differently to other domains. Based on the considerations above, we have adapted CPCs to maritime collision accidents, and administered a questionnaire to OOWs for the purpose of quantifying the dependency and priority of CPCs. This paper introduces the support for the retrospective analysis of marine accidents.

Semi-supervised clustering is an efficient scheme for utilizing data with partial class information, where unsupervised data distributions are estimated under some supports of partial supervised class information. In this paper, a novel framework for performing fuzzy co-clustering of cooccurrence information with partial supervision is proposed, which is induced by multinomial mixture concept. Co-clustering is useful for extracting object-item pair-wise clusters from cooccurrence information and has been utilized in various applications such as document-keyword analysis and customer-products purchase history data analysis. Several experimental results including a twitter data analysis demonstrate the ability of improving the classification quality of the fuzzified co-cluster structural knowledge. Then, the proposed semi-supervised framework is expected to be a powerful tool in Big Data analysis with huge volumes of data but partial supervisions only.

This paper presents the development of Android-based framework for improving marriage satisfaction without having to spend time and money for the marriage counselor. Classic research in psychology found that stability of marriage is based on the ability to create and maintain a positive interaction ratio 5 times more than negative interactions. Based on that, we propose a method to record information of daily positive behaviors (joking, showing affection) of couples that using our application. We propose a method where the apps can determine users' marital satisfaction level and also can help the users to increasing their marriage satisfaction based on the assessment of the results of questionnaire and the assessment of user's behaviors to their partners using fuzzy logic. The experimental results are presented and shown the application is running well on mobile devices based on Android platform.

The present research is aimed to help users to identify which encoding functions are more effective than others in terms of data matching quality. Therefore, we have carried out an evaluation of data matching considering Soundex Daitch-Mokotoff [1], Fuzzy Soundex [2] and Modified Soundex [3] in terms of precision-recall and f-measure. As far as we know such comparison against these encoding functions has not been presented before in such terms. The Daitch Mokotoff Soundex function has a better performance during string comparison. However, its execution time is greater than Fuzzy Soundex and Modified Soundex. This is justificable since the Daitch-Mokotoff Soundex algorithm is more complex and meticulous.

Video and image analysis technologies have made human action recognition as an interesting field and used in many practical application systems such as visual surveillance systems, healthcare monitoring systems, 3D games and smart home. In this paper, we address the challenges of automatic tracking, detection and recognition of three-dimensional human pose-based actions from sequences of depth maps. Specifically, we have designed our proposed idea into a probabilistic framework: (1) dividing each action into meaningful ordered temporal segments, (2) using pixel-neighboring intensity difference approach to identify human shape region from the confused scenes, (3) introducing a robust spatiotemporal features to extract 3D joints information via local distance features and depth human shape information to get motion variation features and (4) finally these sets of features are merged together and their feature vectors are further reduced and discriminated to get optimal vectors for real-world applications. Next, the augmented features are enhanced and symbolized by Linde-Buzo-Gray clustering algorithm for better action recognition. With these symbols, each action hidden Markov model (HMM) is trained and tested for action recognition. The experimental results demonstrated our proposed approach on three challenging depth video datasets: IM-DepthActions, MSRAction3D and MSRDailyActivity3D, producing significantly improved results over the state-of-the-art methods: especially for those actions that are not easily discernible by the existing methods.

Resulting in the ripple of electromagnetic torque, high order harmonic flux and current of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) are generated by the nonlinear characteristics of inverter and the distortion of air-gap magnetic field. In this paper, a novel harmonic compensation algorithm was presented to reduce the harmonic components of flux and current. Based on the harmonic model of the PMSM, harmonic voltage is injected to compensate the harmonic components of the motor flux and current. By extraction of harmonic flux/current and injection of harmonic voltage in real-time, high-order harmonics of flux generated by the nonlinear characteristics of inverter and the distortion of air-gap magnetic field is counteracted. Thereby, distortion of motor current is reduced. The effectiveness of the algorithm is validated by simulation and experimentation.

A Hopfield network is one of the famous neural network models proposed in 1980s, and it is known as a good tool for solving combinatorial optimization problems. Its working mechanismis quite easy to understand, because its state transition is carried out to reduce the energy defined in advance. But it is true that there are some drawbacks. One is the existence of local energyminima corresponding to spurious solutions. Another is a size of the given task. Generally speaking, it is said that a large-scale network shows poor performance compared with a small-scale one, because the number of combinations for all possibilities are larger. In order to overcome the latter issue, an idea of partitioning applied constraints is tried in this study. Its key aspect is as follows: i) all constraints are divided into several groups, and ii) some of them are applied iteratively while the Hopfield network is searching an optimal solution. As a result of some computer simulations, it is found that the proposed method shows a better score than the conventional method.

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an effective surgical treatment for the knee osteoarthritis, and is currently performed about 50,000 per year in Japan. TAK minimally invasive surgery (TKA-MIS) is a smaller incision range than TKA, and can expect an early recovery and post-surgical pain reduction. The navigation system for the purpose of precision improvement and shortening of the operative time operated on has been already studied. However, a study for the instruction system to improve the skill of surgeons has not yet advanced. This study aims to develop a training system which can makes non-expert surgeon improved the skill by simulating the TKA-MIS. The proposed method developed a simulator for the knee model with a three-dimensional electromagnetism sensor. The experiment established an evaluation method for the skin incision by tracing a sham scalpel trace. The developed system was applied to one non-experts. In the experimental results, non-teaching case was 65.80+/-7.00; teaching case, 83.44+/-11.04 (p = 0.00 <; 0.05, student t-test). The experimental result leads to the conclusion that the proposed training system has the learning effect.

Visually impaired person faced difficulty in limited movement, even in their house. A study on this field based on engineering concept is vital to help the visually impaired people. It is very important that this research come out with an intelligent path guidance robot to assist the visually impaired people in their movement. This paper presents the design and implementation of an intelligent path guidance robot to assist the visually impaired people in their movement (iPath). The robot has the capability to follow a path that is provided on the floor and also detect any obstacle that is blocking the path. Apart from that, the robot can sense the motion of the user. The robot can also detect when the user wants the robot to increase or decrease its speed. Another great advantage of the robot is that the cane that is attached on the robot can be easily detached from the robot body. In addition, the hardware design for the robot is small and lightweight. Thus, visually impaired people can comfortably receive the help from the robot in assisting their movement.
