This paper proposes an overarching review of national municipal waste management systems and waste-to-energy as an important part of it in the context of circular economy in the selected countries in Europe. The growth of population and rising standards of living means that the consumption of goods and energy is increasing. On the one hand, consumption leads to an increase in the generation of waste...
This paper presents a recursive algorithm for adaptive observation of linear single-input single-output (SISO) time-invariant discrete systems. The problem of state observation is of main importance in automatic control, especially for designing modal state controllers when the state variables of the system are unknown. The proposed algorithm is based on the recursive extended least-squares (RELS)...
The current paper proposes an improved specialized charge amplifier as an interface for measurement based applications that utilize Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) material. As this material and its interfacing electronics are still being researched, most of the applications and topologies are in development. PVDF material characteristics are reviewed and set as a basis for the design of the proposed...
In this paper a novel and more complete classification of color harmonies and contrasts are presented. It is done on the base of the three main characteristics of the color, which are most closed to the human perception - hue, saturation and lightness. Functions for automatic features extraction from digital images, using MPEG-7 dominant color descriptor are defined. The results of these functions...
A new approach for video-stream filtering that makes use of the features representing video content and exploits the properties of metric spaces can help reduce the filtering receiver's computational load.
We present a general framework for vessel segmentation in retinal images with a particular focus on small vessels. The retinal images are first processed by a nonlinear diffusion filter to smooth vessels along their principal direction. The vessels are then enhanced using a compound vessel enhancement filter that combines the eigenvalues of the Hessian matrix, the response of matched filters, and...
The problem of the reliability of an entity sharing between their components in order to maximize its lifetime is considered. Some algorithms generating solutions to the problem is presented along with numerical examples for the problem.
