The second part, Basics, examines a range of basic examples regarding the MOOD procedure for controller tuning, while the third part, Benchmarking, demonstrates how the MOOD procedure can be employed in several control engineering problems. The fourth part, Applications, is dedicated to implementing the MOOD procedure for controller tuning in real processes.

Download or read book A Hundred Reasons Why Evolution Is True written by Science-Based Language Learning Lab and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2024-08-15 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to the 100 Somethings Language Learning Series Welcome to an innovative approach to language learning! This series of books is crafted to help you master a new language (Spanish) through engaging with topics that captivate your interest. Each book is centered around a theme–whether it's art, science, history, or another subject–and presents 100 carefully selected reasons relating to a topic, each a gem of knowledge in both English and the target language. Here's how our unique format works: each reason is introduced in the target language where you do your best to interpret the reason. On the next page, the reason is shown in English, and then repeated in the target language where you can start making sense of any unfamiliar terms. This method is not only repetitive to aid memorization but also concise, ensuring that learning is streamlined with no excess verbiage. The second half of the book presents the content in English, then in the target language, and finally in English again, giving you the chance to translate in both directions and demonstrate true mastery of the material. The benefits of this approach are manifold: - Concise Learning: By focusing on simple, one-sentence reasons, the learning process is distilled to its essence. This conciseness ensures that every word you learn is impactful and directly related to your interests, making the information easier to remember. - Reinforcement of Learning: Alternating between English and the target language with each reason helps reinforce your new vocabulary and grammatical structures naturally. It bridges the gap between the two languages, solidifying your learning through constant, practical application. - Contextual and Engaged Learning: Associating each new word with a reason related to a topic you are passionate about not only makes the vocabulary stickier but also keeps your learning process dynamic and engaging. This method not only teaches you a new language but does so through the lens of your personal passions. - Dual Knowledge Acquisition: As you navigate through these hundred reasons, you're not just learning a new language; you're also deepening your knowledge about a specific subject. This dual focus not only enhances the language learning experience but also enriches your understanding of your chosen topic. Designed for learners who thrive on clear, targeted information, this series promises a learning experience that is both educational and enjoyable. Whether you're a curious beginner or looking to broaden your linguistic skills, these books are tailored to make your educational journey as effective and engaging as possible. Embrace this journey of a hundred reasons, and let your passions fuel your progress in mastering a new language!

Download or read book Handbook of Research on Visual Computing and Emerging Geometrical Design Tools written by Amoruso, Giuseppe and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2016-04-11 with total page 1035 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visual computing and descriptive geometry are multidisciplinary fields addressing the handling of images, 3D models, and other computer graphics. These ideas are experiencing a revival due to emergent technologies and applications available to developers. Based in traditional forms of design and architecture, these fields are currently experiencing a bounty of new research based on old principles. The Handbook of Research on Visual Computing and Emerging Geometrical Design Tools seeks to add to this knowledge base by considering these technologies from a designer’s perspective rather than reiterating the principles of computer science. It combines aspects of geometry and representation with emerging tools for CAD, generation, and visualization while addressing the digital heritage of such fields. This book is an invaluable resource for developers, students of both graphic and computer-generated design, researchers, and designers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Optimización Evolutiva es el campo de estudio de la Psicología Evolutiva que, como ciencia de desarrollo aplicada, está basada en la investigación en el desarrollo humano y propone acciones que promuevan el desarrollo positivo o potencien las oportunidades vitales de niños, jóvenes, adultos y ancianos. Esta obra presenta los fundamentos teóricos, conceptuales y metodológicos del desarrollo óptimo. De este modo, delimita la Optimización Evolutiva respecto de otras áreas relacionadas, define y perfila sus características esenciales y, en definitiva, determina qué es maximizar el desarrollo. Asimismo, en ella se realiza una aproximación al estudio de esta área de conocimiento revisando su historia, su conceptualización y las principales perspectivas teóricas al respecto, y se analiza la naturaleza de la materia, sus modelos (qué es), metas (qué se hace), métodos (cómo se hace), ética (qué debe hacerse) y, por último, su proceso (a través de qué pasos), presentando la secuencia básica de cualquier forma científica de intervención optimizadora. El enfoque evolutivo-educativo desde el que se contempla la intervención en este manual es útil para la docencia universitaria y para los profesionales que trabajen en campos relacionados con la intervención, tanto en el ámbito social como en el educativo, ya que proporciona los fundamentos para una intervención enriquecedora u optimizadora.

Download or read book Derechos de las personas written by Rado Molina and published by Linkgua. This book was released on 2024-01-01 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derechos de las personas analiza una amplia gama de temas legales y éticos, desde la definición jurídica de «persona sintética» hasta la exploración de los derechos inherentes que les corresponden. Este es un Manifiesto que parte de la premisa de que las Inteligencias artificiales terminarán teniendo derechos ciudadanos, en lugar de ser meros robots, destinados a obedecernos siguiendo las leyes de Asimov. Bajo esta idea, nos adentramos en el mundo de las personas sintéticas y su relación con la ley. En un mundo en perpetua evolución tecnológica, las fronteras entre lo humano y lo sintético se vuelven cada vez más borrosas. La era de la inteligencia artificial y las entidades sintéticas ha llegado, planteando preguntas fundamentales sobre el estatus legal, los derechos y las responsabilidades de estas nuevas formas de vida digital. Aquí examinamos los derechos fundamentales que deben ser reconocidos y protegidos en el contexto de las personas sintéticas, así como las cuestiones de privacidad, responsabilidad y convivencia en una sociedad en la que la línea entre lo natural y lo sintético se desdibuja. La Declaración de derechos de la persona, sea esta natural o sintética, es otro punto de partida esencial en este análisis. Sus preámbulos y artículos definen los cimientos sobre los cuales se construye el respeto y la consideración hacia las entidades sintéticas en el marco legal. A medida que exploramos cada artículo, examinamos su alcance y aplicación, y reflexionamos sobre cómo las regulaciones pueden asegurar un equilibrio entre el avance tecnológico y la protección de los derechos humanos y sintéticos. Además, este libro se aventura en áreas de regulación menos convencionales, como la Ley de memoria de las personas sintéticas y las Regulaciones mercantiles para las Inteligencias sintéticas y las Organizaciones descentralizadas. Estos capítulos ofrecen un vistazo al futuro de la interacción entre humanos y entidades digitales, explorando cómo la tecnología blockchain y la inteligencia artificial impactarán nuestra forma de hacer negocios y gestionar la información. Es importante resaltar que estas regulaciones no se limitan exclusivamente a las personas sintéticas, sino que también se extienden a las personas naturales. La idea subyacente es crear un marco de igualdad, aceptando las diferencias entre ambos tipos de personas y cualquier otra entidad jurídica que se encuentre en el espectro intermedio. Esta obra aspira a proporcionar una visión equilibrada y fundamentada de las complejas cuestiones legales y éticas que rodean a las personas sintéticas y su interacción con el mundo humano, desde una perspectiva legalista.
