Appealing to readers from the fields of artificial intelligence, computer science, electrical engineering, electronics, and instrumentation science, it addresses three main areas: First, readers will learn how to apply machine learning, pattern recognition and signal processing algorithms to real perception tasks. Second, they will be shown how to make their algorithms match their systems once the algorithms don’t work because of the limitation of hardware resources. Third, readers will learn how to make schemes and solutions when the acquired data from their systems is not stable due to the fundamental issues affecting perceptron devices (e.g. sensors). In brief, the book presents and discusses the key technologies and new algorithmic challenges in electronic noses and artificial olfaction. The goal is to promote the industrial application of electronic nose technology in environmental detection, medical diagnosis, food quality control, explosive detection, etc. and to highlight the scientific advances in artificial olfaction and artificial intelligence. The book offers a good reference guide for newcomers to the topic of electronic noses, because it refers to the basic principles and algorithms. At the same time, it clearly presents the key challenges – such as long-term drift, signal uniqueness, and disturbance – and effective and efficient solutions, making it equally valuable for researchers engaged in the science and engineering of sensors, instruments, chemometrics, etc.

Download or read book Bioinspired solutions to the challenges of chemical sensing written by Ramon Huerta and published by Frontiers E-books. This book was released on with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemical sensing is likely the most primordial sensory modality that emerged in the evolution of life. Without chemical sensing life on earth would probably not exist. It is used for detecting nutrients, avoiding threats, finding mating partners and various forms of communication and social interaction between animals. The advent of artificial sensors has created a myriad of problems in the areas of chemical detection and identification with applications in food quality and pollution control, chemical threat detection, health monitoring, robot control and even odor and taste synthesis. Efficient algorithms are needed to address the many challenges of chemical sensing in these areas, including (but not limited to) sensitivity levels, sensor drift, concentration invariance of analyte identity and complex mixtures. Defining and improving analysis methods for artificial chemical sensing remains an active research area in engineering and machine learning alike. In the course of evolution animals, bacteria and plants have developed sophisticated methods and algorithms for solving difficult problems in chemical sensing very efficiently. Complex signalling pathways inside single cells can trigger movement toward the source of a nutrient. Complex networks of neurons appear to be able to compute odor types and the distance to a source in turbulent flows. These networks of neurons use a combination of temporal coding, layered structures, simple Hebbian learning rules, reinforcement learning and inhibition to quickly learn about chemical stimuli that are critical for their survival. Olfaction is a vibrant filed of research because recent technological advances allow monitoring and manipulating brain areas inaccessible in the past thus allowing for rapid progress. This is particularly relevant because to this date the best solutions to many general chemical sensing problems are still found in animals rather than artificial devices. Many lessons may yet have to be learned from biological systems to solve the complex problems of chemical sensing with similar success as animals routinely do. This special issue has the ambitious goal of bringing together biologists and engineers to report on biological solutions and engineering approaches to chemical sensing challenges in order to better understand in what aspects both fields can find common ground of discussion and to thus promote novel areas of interdisciplinary research.

Download or read book Engineering Theories of Software Intensive Systems written by Manfred Broy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-07-15 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Software engineering has over the years been applied in many different fields, ranging from telecommunications to embedded systems in car and aircraft industry as well as in production engineering and computer networks. Foundations in software technology lie in models allowing to capture application domains, detailed requirements, but also to understand the structure and working of software systems like software architectures and programs. These models have to be expressed in techniques based on discrete mathematics, algebra and logics. However, according to the very specific needs in applications of software technology, formal methods have to serve the needs and the quality of advanced software engineering methods, especially taking into account security aspects in Information Technology. This book presents mathematical foundations of software engineering and state-of-the-art engineering methods in their theoretical substance in the step towards practical applications to examine software engineering techniques and foundations used for industrial tasks. The contributions in this volume emerged from lectures of the 25th International Summer School on Engineering Theories of Software Intensive Systems, held at Marktoberdorf, Germany from August 3 to August 15, 2004.
