In the future, robotic surgical assistants may assist surgeons by performing specific subtasks such as retraction and suturing to reduce surgeon tedium duration of some operations. We propose an apprenticeship learning approach that has potential allow autonomously execute trajectories with superhuman performance in terms speed smoothness. first step, we record a set using human-guided backdriven motions robot. These are then analyzed extract smooth reference trajectory, which at gradually...
Rapidly running arthropods like cockroaches make use of passive dynamics to achieve remarkable locomotion performance with regard stability, speed, and maneuverability. In this work, we take inspiration from these organisms design, fabricate, control a 10cm, 24 gram underactuated hexapedal robot capable at 14 body lengths per second performing dynamic turning maneuvers. Our design relies on parallel kinematic mechanisms fabricated using the scaled smart composite microstructures (SCM)...
This paper presents a set of innovative algorithms and system, named Log Master, for mining correlations events that have multiple attributions, i.e., node ID, application event type, severity, in logs large-scale cloud HPC systems. Different from traditional transactional data, e.g., supermarket purchases, system their unique characteristics, hence we propose several approaches to correlations. We parse into an n-ary sequence where each is identified by informative nine-tuple. enhanced...
Heat defense is crucial for survival and fitness. Transmission of thermosensory signals into hypothalamic thermoregulation centers represents a key layer regulation in heat defense. Yet, how these are transmitted the hypothalamus remains poorly understood. Here, we reveal that lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPB) glutamatergic prodynorphin cholecystokinin neuron populations progressively recruited to defend elevated body temperature. These two nonoverlapping types form circuits with downstream...
The nucleus accumbens (NAc) is the most promising target for drug use disorder treatment. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of NAc effective However, mechanisms by which DBS produces its therapeutic effects remain enigmatic. Here, we define a behavioral cutoff criterion to distinguish depressive-like behaviors and non-depressive-like in mice after morphine withdrawal. We identified basolateral amygdala (BLA) D1 medium spiny neuron (MSN) pathway that controls Furthermore, paraventricular thalamus...
This paper addresses an optimal periodic training signal design for frequency offset estimation in frequency-selective multipath Rayleigh fading channels. For a fixed transmitted energy within fixed-length block, the structure (the locations of identical subblocks) and subblock are presented. The optimality is based on minimum Cramer-Rao bound (CRB) criterion. Based CRB joint channel, (optimality only estimation, not necessarily channel estimation) derived. obtained by using average...

Compared existing methods CDMA-type codes (in frequency-domain) defined in 802.16-2004, achieves...
As the sizes of supercomputers and data centers grow towards exascale, failures become normal. System logs play a critical role in increasingly complex tasks automatic failure prediction diagnosis. Many methods for are based on analyzing event large scale systems, but there is still neither widely used one to predict both non-fatal fatal events, nor precise that uses fine-grained information (such as type, node location, related application, time occurrence). A deeper more log analysis...

Incorporating ESG analyze mechanism of company, found that company risk factors...
Abstract This study investigates the evolution of equilibrium points (EPs) in dynamical environment a rotating asteroid, parametrized with respect to single governing physical parameter. The polyhedral model is employed accurately represent asteroid’s gravity field, and corresponding equations motion are using general variable associated either spin rate or bulk density asteroid. A theorem established, demonstrating that EP sets derived from these two parametrizations...
We address the initial ranging process in OFDMA systems such as IEEE 802.16a. The proposed method includes three main tasks - timing estimation, multi-user code detection, and power estimation. All are performed based on a bank of correlators corresponding to codes. estimation scheme is peak correlator outputs. detection outputs an adaptive threshold. A novel threshold setting proposed. simple user-power estimator derived adjustment at random access users also which brings significant...
This letter studied the covert communication with help of cognitive jammer over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. The first senses Alice's transmission; then, based on its sensing results, it determines whether to transmit jamming signal. results showed that function does increase rate Alice Bob link while keeping eavesdropper, Willie, from detecting existence transmission.
We address joint estimation of frequency offsets and channel responses in OFDMA uplink. A cyclically equal-spaced, equal-energy interleaved pilot preamble is proposed by which two iterative estimators are developed. In the first estimator, we develop a modified SAGE (space alternating generalized expectation-maximization) method incorporating multiuser interference cancellation both time domains into method. The yields faster convergence rate, better performance, lower complexity than...
Fuzzy logical control is a robust and effective method in industrial fields, which renders it applicable to the attitude of solar sail.
