Electromyography (EMG) signal contains a large amount of human motion information, which can be used to classify human actions. In this study, based on the detection of surface electromyography (sEMG) signal, three actions were designed, the sEMG signal was collected by the EMG acquisition system. Four feature values, including root-mean-square value, average absolute value (MAV), wavelength, and Zero crossing point, were extracted from the signal. Then these values were taken as the input of Back-Propagation neural network (BPNN) to recognize different actions, thereby realizing the real-time control of mechanical simulated arm. The experiment found that the training time of the BPNN method designed in this study was short, 11.36 s, and the average recognition accuracy rate reached 92.2%. In the real-time control experiment of mechanical simulated arm, the recognition accuracy of different actions reached more than 90%, and the running time was short. The experimental results verifies the effectiveness of the proposed method and make some contributions to the efficient control of the mechanical simulation arm.

Developing a microcontroller-based system for controlling the flywheel motor of high-dynamics spacecraft using Russian-made parts and components made it possible to make statement of the problem of searching control function for a preset rotation rate of the flywheel rotor. This paper discusses one of the possible options for mathematical study of the stated problem, namely, application of structural analysis based on graph theory. Within the framework of the stated problem a graph was constructed for generating the new required rate, while in order to consider the stochastic case option the incidence and adjacency matrices were constructed. The stated problem was solved using a power matrix which transforms a set of contiguous matrices of the graph of admissible solution edge sequences, the real-time control function was found. Based on the results of this work, operational trials were run for the developed control function of the flywheel motor rotor rotation rate, a math model was constructed for the real-time control function, and conclusions were drawn about the feasibility of implementing the results of this study. Key words: Control function, graph, incidence matrix, adjacency matrix, power matrix, microcontroller control of the flywheel motor, highly dynamic spacecraft.

ABSTRACTWe present the real-time pseudodielectric function <ε(E)> of low-temperature-grown GaAs (LT-GaAs) thin films during the growth as a function of growth temperature Tg and thickness. We obtained accurate measurements of the real-time <εc(E)> by using in situspectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) in conjunction with active feedback control of the substrate temperature using diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. We show that for epitaxial LT-GaAs layers, the peak in the imaginary pseudodielectric function <ε2(E)> decreases in amplitude and sharpness systematically with decreasing Tg. We also revealed an abrupt change in <εc(E)> near the critical epitaxial thickness hepi, the value of which decreases with decreasing Tg. Above hepi, the LT-GaAs grows polycrystalline (amorphous) above (below) Tg ∼ 190°C. We also simultaneously monitored the surface roughness and crystallinity by using real-time reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED). These results represent progress in obtaining real-time control over the composition and morphology of LT-GaAs
