Remotely controlled robots are the majority of contemporary robots’ population. As a rule such robots are used for inspection, patrolling, mines disposal. This is caused by a fact that today’s level of robots’ autonomy is rather low and autonomous robots can not secure reliable performance. However performance of remotely operated robots depends largely on efficiency of information perception by human-operator. This paper studies images representation to operators on robots’ control pendants. More specifically it studies 3D images representation on flat displays. The goal of this study is to increased reaction rate and decrease errors done by robot’s operator due to image’s uncertainty or poor quality. Our main attention is paid to the development of software that implements the technology of transforming the perspective of images. Matrixes for perspective transformation are studied. Hence application of these matrixes within remotely operated robots is discussed. A novelty of this research is in new knowledge about perspective transformation which is done for a better information perception by human-operator and, as an outcome, to increase efficiency of remotely operated robots. The related technologies in the field of telemetry and technical vision systems have been investigated. Also considered are works in medical fields, in particular, the psychology of perception of images and space. A static software model has been developed. The video camera has been implemented with the introduction of perspective distortions to improve the reliability of the transmission of the necessary areas in the image. Research on the technology is carried out jointly with the Institute of Biomedical Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences. A special prototype for perspective transformation basing on various scenarios is being developed.

A new approach to microlaryngeal surgery using a specially designed video microlaryngoscope with a rigid endoscopic telescope and an attached video camera was introduced by Kantor et al in 1990. The ability to video document and perform surgery of the larynx by viewing a high-resolution television image was demonstrated. This method was recommended over the standard microscopic technique for increased visibility with greater depth of field, unimpeded instrument access, instant documentation, and superior teaching value. The authors tried this new method and the standard microscopic technique at the same sitting on a series of patients. This paper will compare these two different techniques and discuss their advantages and disadvantages. Although the new method has many advantages, the standard microscopic technique remains as a valuable method in laryngeal surgery.

A new approach to a circuit implementation design of quantum algorithm gates for quantum massive parallel fast computing realization is presented. The main attention is focused on the development of design method of fast quantum algorithm operators as superposition, entanglement and interference which are in general time-consuming operations due to the number of products that have to be performed. SW & HW support sophisticated toolkit of supercomputing accelerator of quantum algorithm simulation is described. As example, the method for performing Grover’s interference without product operations introduced. The background of developed information technology is the "Quantum / Soft Computing Optimizer" (QSCOptKBTM) software based on soft and quantum computational intelligence toolkit.

This chapter outlines the multiple origin myths of “digital” historical research, arguing that social science inspired cliometricians and linguistically inclined humanities computing scholars working on textual collections were both using computers from the mid-twentieth century, but with very different intellectual agendas and only occasionally crossing paths. With the rise of mass digitization in the 1990s, both groups inspired a new generation of “digital” historians who worked to unlock the potential of the newly digitized archives. Wrestling with practical and intellectual challenges ranging from poor-quality transcription to dealing with incomplete data, this group generated new knowledge and answered new questions such as “what do you do with a million books?” but were not necessarily contributing directly to the existing conversations of the historiography

Developing simple and effective synthetic strategies regarding the formation of heterostructure photocatalytic semiconductors remains an intense challenge in research matters. Uniform heterostructure cobalt oxide@meso–CN@MoS2 (CoO@meso–CN@MoS2) photocatalyst exhibits excellent photocatalytic redox performance for pollutant degradation under visible light. By adjusting the weight ratio of CoO@meso–CN and MoS2, we fabricated a CoO@meso–CN@MoS2 heterostructure photocatalyst, and the established heterostructure between CoO@meso–CN and MoS2 was indicated by various physicochemical and morphological characterizations. The photocatalytic response to the fabricated hybrid was determined by rodamine B (RhB), methylene blue (MB), and congo red (CR) degradation in aqueous solution under visible light, and the nanocomposites with a slight content consisting of CoO@meso–CN achieved better catalysis than pure MoS2. This finding confirmed the propriety of this heterostructure as a valuable photocatalyst. The experimental results demonstrated that the apparent reaction rate constant of the 3 wt% CoO@meso–CN modified MoS2 was about two times higher than that of pure MoS2. The present work serves as a new approach for designing highly efficient visible light-induced heterostructure-based photocatalysts for environmental applications in the future.

A brand new approach to the understanding of breast cancer (BC) is urgently needed. In this contribution, the etiology, pathogenesis, and treatment of this disease is approached from the new pH-centric anticancer paradigm. Only this unitarian perspective, based upon the hydrogen ion (H+) dynamics of cancer, allows for the understanding and integration of the many dualisms, confusions, and paradoxes of the disease. The new H+-related, wide-ranging model can embrace, from a unique perspective, the many aspects of the disease and, at the same time, therapeutically interfere with most, if not all, of the hallmarks of cancer known to date. The pH-related armamentarium available for the treatment of BC reviewed here may be beneficial for all types and stages of the disease. In this vein, we have attempted a megasynthesis of traditional and new knowledge in the different areas of breast cancer research and treatment based upon the wide-ranging approach afforded by the hydrogen ion dynamics of cancer. The concerted utilization of the pH-related drugs that are available nowadays for the treatment of breast cancer is advanced.
