This article focuses on the business analytics and data analysis by application of the advanced tools, technologies and methods of Business Intelligence (BI). These tools enable companies to gain competitive advantage and improve their processes. We had data from the biggest steel factory in Slovakia. In papers [1], [2] we worked with BI solutions and there was request that all reports have to be...
This paper is dealing with the final assembly of the spectrophotometric instrument and especially with creating of the control and calculation software. The resulting device is primarily intended for measuring phototherapy sources used in neonatal wards in hospitals. On the basis of the measured spectrum (i. e. dependence of the radiation intensity on the wavelength) and other input parameters are...
In the proposed paper, we described the approach to build Hadoop based knowledge discovery platform. The proposal focuses on predictive maintenance of production systems, including manufacturing machines and tools, to increase the production process quality. The proposal utilises production data storage, built on Hadoop framework and NoSQL systems, integrated into traditional data warehouse discovery...
The aim of the experiment is to evaluate an effect of industrially used plasma sprayed coatings of the TBC on the heat transfer into the refractory material designed for aeronautical applications. This study uses basic structural material of combustion chambers — components of turbine engines highly thermally stressed during the operation by flow of hot gasses. Using the hot gasses from the gas burner,...
This article reviews and demonstrates the necessary abstraction levels of interoperability for enhanced healthcare systems integration. Defined interoperability levels are mapped against the Open System Interconnection Model layers resulting in bridging the classical and the modern methodology. The clinical integration of eHealth consumer electronic technology is assessed according to the aforementioned...
This paper presents the current progress in acquiring and analyzing the data, obtained from smartphone sensor measurements during a drive with a car. The main aim of the research is to create generic rules to identify road state and its quality. Previously, the mobile application has been created, and measurements began. Currently, we acquired data from more than 500km of daily driving and created...
Behavior Modeling is always a attentive task in the complex product modeling. It is difficult to monitor different kind of behavior of a product in the physical environment. In the RFLP (Requirement Functional Logical Physical) structure, behavior modeling is accomplished in Function and Logical level. There are several ways to monitor the behavior of a product. In this paper, author made an effort...
This paper presents a mathematical model of heat production, exchange and accumulation during ethanol generator at small-scaled fermentor tanks in home wineries or breweries. Heat generation is directly related to CO2 production rate, which serves as a time-dependent input parameter of the model, as well as the actual ambient temperature. Validation at pilot scale experiments showed good agreement...
Defibrillators are electronic sanitary apparatus, used for urgent surgery for restoration cardiac activity. Defibrillator is fast, effective and easy a method surgery and therefore are still more used. Practical education of engineers in this topic is limited, in particular to the potential risk of unwanted defibrillation pulse during operation of the device. Therefore, we designed and implemented...
We summarize the design and implementation of a laboratory model "the Elevator" and its control. We focus on the hardware and software components and on the process of design, actual implementation and application control. The mentioned model is located at the Technical University in Kosice, Department of Cybernetics and Artificial Intelligence at the Center of Modern Control Techniques...
The electrification of the vehicle drivelines provides a new possibility in the lateral control strategies of the vehicle. Through the independent control of the wheels the steering and driving capability of the vehicle can be improved. Although the enhanced solutions, such as torque vectoring and variable-geometry suspension result in additional functionalities, several new challenges must also be...
In this paper, a Simulink model for the robot navigation in unknown environment is presented. The robot navigation is handled by two controllers: pure pursuit and fuzzy logic controller. The pure pursuit controller computes a direct path from start to goal position without considering the obstacles in the path. For obstacle avoidance in robot navigation, the fuzzy logic controller is taken. This fuzzy...
In a wide class of robots of open kinematic chain the inverse kinematic task cannot be solved by the use of closed-form analytical formulae. On this reason the traditional approaches apply differential approximation in which the Jacobian of the — normally redundant — robot arm is "inverted" by the use of some "generalized inverse". These pseudo-inverses behave well whenever the...
In the past period, great efforts have been made to develop the methods for the detection of human beings based on a monitoring their respiratory motion. For that purpose, ultra-wideband sensors (radars) operating in the frequency band DC-5GHz can be used with advantage. The basic principle of respiratory motion detection consists in the identification of sensor signal components possessing a significant...
This paper presents an application for managing education by creating presence lists. An administration application has also been created in order to allow manipulating with the content of the enumerables in the presence lists. Overviews of possible solutions are presented. Our main motivation was to provide secure and reliable way of evaluating student attendance on specific lectures. In order to...
This paper describes the development of a specialized application for voice command recognition for the Jaguar V4 robot in conjunction with the Starkville, MS, USA Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team during training. This training took place at The Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems (CAVS), which provides a specialized environment for police SWAT training. This reconfigurable space, setup during...
New design conditions for the Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model based unknown input observer, is presented in the paper. By the proposed methods, the design problem is parameterized in terms of linear matrix inequalities in relaxed and enhanced structures. Related to the state decoupling and reconstruction in the given class nonlinear systems, the design steps are revealed in the example for attenuation of...
