Parkinson's disease is a neurological disorder that affects about 1% of people over 60 years. The complexity of the disease difficult to carry out objective medical assessments of the level of tremors. This article presents a system which uses the accelerometer and gyroscope sensors in smartwatches to quantify the tremors in patients with Parkinson's disease. The system is based on a Wireless Body Area Network composed by multiple sensor nodes (Android Wears) and one sink node (Android Smartphone). The system integrates four processes: user authentication, placement of sensors on the body, movement sensing and data uploading. The system was evaluated in 12 patients with PD (five males and seven females) while they were doing several activities, but in this article we only analyses when the patients were seated at rest. The patients had an average disease duration of 6.25 years, an average age of 66.33 years and a range of 5186 years. The tremor magnitudes were presented in the form of linear acceleration and angular velocity in the time domain. The results indicate that these variables can determine Parkinson's disease evolution in a patient diagnosed with stage 3 and 4.
帕金森氏症是一种神经系统疾病,大约1%的60岁以上的人会受到影响。疾病的复杂性难以对震颤程度进行客观的医学评估。本文介绍了一种系统,该系统使用智能手表中的加速度计和陀螺仪传感器来量化帕金森病患者的震颤。该系统基于由多个传感器节点(Android wear)和一个汇聚节点(Android Smartphone)组成的无线体域网络。该系统集成了四个过程:用户认证、传感器在身体上的放置、运动传感和数据上传。该系统在12名PD患者(5名男性和7名女性)进行多项活动时进行了评估,但在本文中,我们只分析了患者坐着休息时的情况。患者平均病程6.25年,平均年龄66.33岁,年龄跨度5186岁。地震震级在时域上以线加速度和角速度的形式表示。结果表明,这些变量可以确定诊断为3期和4期患者的帕金森病演变。

A Central Pattern Generator (CPG) is a network of neurons capable of producing oscillatory signals without oscillatory inputs. This paper proposes of gait generator for lower lumbar exoskeleton, based on neurophysiological principles. In this manner, based in an Amplitude Controlled Phase Oscillator (ACPO) implementation for a CPG, acting as trajectory generator in normal gait for hip and knee joints of a lower lumbar exoskeleton. Three types of topologies are evaluated to determine the most suitable for this system. The results indicated that the “A” topology exhibits a smoother reaction to perturbations, which is desirable for a safe and comfortable human-machine interaction. It is also proposed as future work, the evaluation of the trajectories generator in the exoskeleton model and control.

This paper presents experimental results of a two-wheeled inverted pendulum path planning. The model of the robot, which has six identified variables, is linearized by least squares estimation. A Linear-quadratic Regulator is designed to maintain the robot stabilized, while it moves over a path. Furthermore, an integral part is added to the controller in order to achieve steady state equal to zero. Thus the result is an optimal PI controller. The path planning is designed using a Rapidly Exploring Random Tree Connect method. In addition, two algorithms are presented to improve the quality of the path, the first algorithm reduces the redundant paths and the second algorithm uses the Bezier curves to smooth the path.

Electrical power systems must balance demand and generation almost instantly to maintain frequency. This task is performed at each power station with the load frequency controller. On wider areas, the energy management systems supervise generation control automatically to preserve stability and reliability. Due to the unpredictability of the demand, the control response must be as fast as possible to prevent larger deviations that could lead to cascading failures and outages. In order to understand the dynamic behavior and capabilities of the controllers, real time simulation offers a great advantage over its offline predecessors, not only for operational training but also for prototyping. This paper studies the effectiveness of the real time simulator in the analysis of a power system load frequency control.
电力系统必须几乎立即平衡需求和发电量以保持频率。这个任务是在每个电站用负荷频率控制器来完成的。在更广泛的领域,能源管理系统自动监督发电控制,以保持稳定性和可靠性。由于需求的不可预测性,控制响应必须尽可能快,以防止可能导致级联故障和中断的更大偏差。为了了解控制器的动态行为和能力,实时仿真比其离线前辈提供了很大的优势,不仅用于操作培训,而且用于原型设计。本文研究了实时仿真器在电力系统负荷频率控制分析中的有效性。

Researchers share their results through articles that are published and indexed in scientific databases, which are useful to consult in future research. Generally, the user interface of these databases are traditional, restrict user interaction and limit their field of view. In this paper a new interface model is proposed, based on virtual reality and natural language processing, which together provide a excellent user experience and better use of human capabilities, such as intuition and spatial cognition. In this research they are used the devices Oculus Rif and Leap Motion hardware. The case study is the exploration of scientific articles using Alicia, which is the scientific database of Peru. The motivation for this research is to contribute with better tools to optimize the tasks of literature review and facilitate the work of researchers.

From the topological perspective, the availability of genome-scale metabolic network models assists to the large-scale analysis of the metabolites connections, and thus, the evaluation of the cell metabolic capabilities to produce high added-value molecules. In this study, a comprehensive connectivity analysis of the published genome-scale metabolic model of Synechococcus elongatus PCC7942 (iSyf715) is presented, highlighting the most connected metabolites of this biological system. To get a suitable fit, the connectivity distribution of the metabolic model is evaluated using the cumulative distribution function (Pareto's law), verifying a power-law distribution in iSyf715 metabolic network (3=2.203). Additionally, through the comparison of the connectivity distributions in different microbial metabolic network models, the scale-free behavior of these metabolic networks is verified. The prediction of the metabolic network connectivity could supports the determination of the underlying functioning principles of certain cellular processes.

This work introduces the engineering design of a device capable to detect serum turbidity. We hypothesized that an electronic, portable, and low cost device that can provide objective, quantitative measurements of serum turbidity might have the potential to improve the early detection of neonatal sepsis. The design features, testing methodologies, and the obtained results are described. The final electronic device was evaluated in two experiments. The first one consisted in recording the turbidity value measured by the device for different solutions with known concentrations and different degrees of turbidity. The second analysis demonstrates a positive correlation between visual turbidity estimation and electronic turbidity measurement. Furthermore, our device demonstrated high turbidity in serum from two neonates with sepsis (one with a confirmed positive blood culture; the other one with a clinical diagnosis). We conclude that our electronic device may effectively measure serum turbidity at the bedside. Future studies will widen the possibility of additional clinical implications.
本文介绍了一种能够检测血清浊度的装置的工程设计。我们假设,一种电子、便携、低成本的设备,可以提供客观、定量的血清浊度测量,可能有潜力改善新生儿败血症的早期检测。描述了设计特点、测试方法和获得的结果。最后的电子装置在两个实验中进行了评估。第一步是记录仪器测量的不同浓度、不同浑浊度溶液的浊度值。第二个分析证明了视觉浊度估计和电子浊度测量之间的正相关关系。此外,我们的设备在两名脓毒症新生儿的血清中显示出高浊度(一名确诊血培养阳性;另一个有临床诊断)。我们的结论是,我们的电子设备可以有效地在床边测量血清浑浊度。未来的研究将扩大其他临床意义的可能性。

The aim of this paper is to analyze the performance through the ISE index between the two techniques SMC and PD control for quadcopters formation based on a virtual structure by establishing geometrical relationships between the virtual leader (centroid) and quadcopters located in each vertex. The controllers are used for stabilization and trajectory tracking. To analyze the stability, the direct method of Lyapunov is used.

Modeling and Monte Carlo simulation of call completion success probabilities under the input-output scheme 输入输出方案下呼叫完成成功率的建模与蒙特卡罗模拟

We present a model of Probability of Success Call Completion (PSCC) from a typical I/O procedure and computationally tested through Monte Carlo simulation with Gaussian profiles. Under the I/O view the input and transfer functions are prepared without to abandon the randomness nature of the phenomenology. Because kernels are required by the I/O formulation, we have assumed that the Dirac-Delta functions play the role of kernels in according to the I/O representation. The results would indicate that under certain circumstances the formulation I/O is valid by a 10% of error respect to the Meo-Ajmone model. However, the weakness of the I/O approach would be in the extraction of a large number of free parameters, which do not necessarily encompasses the dynamic of phenomenon.
我们从一个典型的I/O过程中提出了一个成功调用完成概率(PSCC)模型,并通过高斯分布的蒙特卡罗模拟进行了计算测试。在输入/输出视图下,输入函数和传递函数是在不放弃现象学随机性的前提下准备的。由于I/O公式需要核,因此我们假设根据I/O表示,Dirac-Delta函数扮演核的角色。结果表明,在某些情况下,公式I/O是有效的,相对于Meo-Ajmone模型有10%的误差。然而,I/O方法的弱点在于提取大量的自由参数,这些参数不一定包含现象的动态。
