Formalization of target invariants and designing an adaptive control system for the model of anaerobic biological wastewater treatment

A model of a two-step anaerobic fermentation in a bioreactor-mixer, whose mathematical description is a system of nonlinear mathematical equations, is discussed. The purpose is to design an algorithm of an energy-saving control relying on the principles of nonlinear adaptation on target manifolds with an attractive property, which are referred to as invariants or invariable laws of the target system behavior for the object under study. A necessary preliminary step is the formalization of possible target invariants in the form of prescribed (desired) laws of the controlled object behavior. An example is given of designing a vector regulator with a compensation of random disturbances over the control channel in a system of anaerobic biological waste water treatment.

A Lightweight Motional Object Behavior Prediction System Harnessing Deep Learning Technology for Embedded ADAS Applications

This paper proposes a lightweight moving object prediction system to detect and recognize pedestrian crossings, vehicles cutting-in, and vehicles ahead applying emergency brakes based on a 3D Convolution network for behavior prediction. The proposed design significantly improves the performance of the conventional 3D convolution network (C3D) adapted to predict the behaviors employing behavior recognition network capable of performing object localization, which is pivotal in detecting the numerous moving objects’ behaviors, combining and verifying the detected objects with the results of the YOLO v3 detection model with that of the proposed C3D model. Since the proposed system is a lightweight CNN model requiring far lesser parameters, it can be efficiently realized on an embedded system for real-time applications. The proposed lightweight C3D model achieves 10 frames per second (FPS) on a NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier and yields over 92.8% accuracy in recognizing pedestrian crossing, over 94.3% accuracy in detecting vehicle cutting-in behavior, and over 95% accuracy for vehicles applying emergency brakes.

Ultrasonic Sensors Enabling Early Detection of Emergency Trends and Analysis of Structure Inclination and Stability by Means of Highly Accurate Level Measurements

Building inclinations can be measured through the use of ultrasonic hydrostatic levelers. These are used to measure long-term relative displacements of vertical parts of structures and utilize the principle of communicating vessels (similar to the classic water scales). The presented ultrasonic displacement measurement technique was developed by Ultrasystem in the 1990s and was applied to several objects in Poland. Long-term measurements enabled the development of a model of object behavior under the influence of various factors. Among these are the annual cycle of temperature changes, fluctuating water levels, turbine chamber emptying, etc. Such a model can facilitate the prediction of failure based on the appearance of changes deviating from typical behavior (e.g., a much stronger dependence of the inclination as a function of the water level). The results obtained with the help of ultrasonic sensors enable the observation of subtle deformations of the object, which is valuable when developing and calibrating new models of the object (e.g., by means of the finite element method).

The influencing potential of the conflictogenic media space in the aspect of legal culture

The authors consider the problematic field of conflictogenic media space in a linguistic-legal aspect. The goal of the article is to present the individual results of linguistic and psycholinguistic studies of polycode controversial texts. In expert practice the authors actively employ the emotional-lexical assessment of verbal and non-verbal models, the assessment of the rhythmic brain activity during the perception of the entire text, the assessment of the rhythmic coherence in the perception of individual parts of the text and their comparison, the technique for recognizing the hidden motives of the object behavior in the process of its professional activity, analysis of the individual coefficients of the text impact on the individual and mass consciousness and subconsciousness. Conflict genes are demonstrated and described in this work. These are the minimum significant units of the component of the conflictogenic media space. The specific character of the polycode text, the texture of which consists of verbal and non-verbal parts, is demonstrated. The quantitative and qualitative results of the research performed are determined by the potential of classical linguistics and related branches of knowledge for solving polycode text problems using the developed software products in the field of psycholinguistic investigations.

Religion as the “art of being an object”: Some modern cryptotheological approaches

In the article, the author proceeds from the assumption that the obsession with the subject status, characteristic of the New European man, devalued the “art of being an object”. The article deals with intellectual strategies for the rehabilitation of the “object” status: the social grammar of Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy and the cybernetic epistemology of Gregory Bateson. Rosenstock-Huessy draws attention to the fact that in speech acts the speaker appears not only as the subject-source of speech, but also as the object to which the listener’s reaction is directed. Moreover, the condition for the formation of the subject of speech is the listener’s object position. This statement captures a wide range of interpretations: from psychological and pedagogical to theological. Bateson criticizes Cartesian epistemology, which, without reflexive grounds, places a person in the position of a subject, thinking, acting, that is ultimately controlling, and ignores or critically treats the position of the object. However, such epistemology gives an incomplete picture of the cognitive or practically transformative act, since it does not register the moments when the cognizing and acting subject receives feedback from the known or transformed reality — becomes an object. The “art of being an object” is proposed as an essential characteristic of religion as such. In fact, a religious situation (at least in theistic religions) is a situation of being in a complex subject-object relationship with the Absolute, where a person, as a rule, does not control the situation, but voluntarily or forcibly becomes the object of influence, control. At the same time, a religious person is not indifferent to the field of a certain power he finds himself in, therefore he is forced to use art or the “gift of discerning spirits”. In the article’s conclusion, secular forms of object behavior are criticized.

Performance Analysis of 77 GHz mmWave Radar Based Object Behavior

In this paper, performance analysis of the object behavior using mmwave radar is proposed. The AWR1642 mmwave radar with frequency 77 GHz that has advantages over the other sensors, especially in penetrate materials and high accuracy, is utilized in this research. The paper presents an analysis of object behavior in the experimental method in the indoor environment. The radar will detect an object by sending a chirp signal and receiving it again after it is reflected. The mmwave radar shows the performances in the distance, number of objects, radiation pattern, and velocity. The measurement results show that the object can be detected up to 3 m in the indoor environment with a high level of accuracy and stability. Then, the radar can detect multiple objects in the Line-of-Sight (LOS) condition, where the received power level would be attenuated by about 10 dB after penetrating the first object. The research results showed the beamwidth of the radar is 140 degrees with a directional radiation pattern from 20 degrees to 160 degrees. In this system, radar has been able to identify the velocity of the object accurately. It appears that increasing the speed will affect the Central Processing Unit (CPU) usage on the radar too. The proposed system showed excellent performance in object behavior analysis, and it can be utilized in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) applications.

Universal Object Motions: Theory

Postulates governing universal object motion s are hypothesized. All o bjects display mass, geometry, andwavelengths (colors) determined either by their inherent properties of transmission or by their interactions withrays of different wavelengths. T h is paper proposes that RMs , which will be defined later, are the fundamentalcaus ation of motion in the UniverseThe motion of objects in theUniverse is governed by Newton 's laws of motion and laws of gravitation. Einstein’sspecial theory of relativity defines the motion of objects through relativistic frames and makes a bold hypothesisthat no object in the universe can surpass the speed of light. However, both, Newton’s and Einstein’s theoriessimply ignore the geometry of objects in defining the motion.This paper will explainho w the number of objects (defined here as RM), geometry of objects andemission/reflective property of objects are the fundamental cause for the origination of motion It is critical tounderstand how the number of objects, geometrical structure of objects and emission/reflective behaviour ofobjects can result in the occurrence of motion in the form of translational, rotational and revolution. When theproperties of objects such as geometry, light emission and the number of objects change, motion changes its forms.This paperis intended to be first of series of papers that will explain the nature of objects, their motion behavior s,and the fundamental nature of a Universe observed via the various object behavior s

Russian constructions with numerals and quantifiers: Their non-standard use in the subject and object position

In the article, I describe cases of special behavior of Russian phrases with quantifiers like neskol’ko ‘some’, mnogo ‘many, much’ and small numerals like dva ‘two’. I show that they can occur in the subject position in contexts that usually do not contain a canonical DP/NP subject (constructions with the verb xvatat’ ‘be enough’, negation contexts with the verb byt’ ‘be’ and its habitual / iterative correlate byvat’), and for neskol’ko-like quantifiers, the direct object position with intransi- tive predicates like na-...-sja circumfixed verbs is also available. The reason of non- canonical subject behavior is the possibility to be subjects without controlling plural verbal agreement, while the non-canonical direct object behavior is possible because neskol’ko-like quantifiers lack the category of case.
