A wavelet-based CMAC for enhanced multidimensional learning
<p>The CMAC (Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller) neural network has been successfully used in control systems and other applications for many years. The network structure is modular and associative, allowing for rapid learning convergence with an ease of implementation in either hardware or …

Pole -mounted sonar vibration prediction using CMAC neural networks
… the pole-mounted sonar vibration using CMAC neural networks is presented. The feasibility of this approach is studied in theory, evaluated by simulation and verified with a real-time laboratory prototype, Analytical bounds of the learning rate of a CMAC neural network are derived which …

Active disturbance cancellation in nonlinear dynamical systems using neural networks
<p>A proposal for the use of a time delay CMAC neural network for disturbance cancellation in nonlinear dynamical systems is presented. Appropriate modifications to the CMAC training algorithm are derived which allow convergent adaptation for a variety of secondary signal paths. Analytical bounds …

Determinantes en la rentabilidad de las cajas municipales de ahorro y crédito en el Perú (2013-2019)
Las Cajas Municipales de Ahorro y Crédito (CMAC) en el Perú ocupan desde inicios del año 2000 , el segundo lugar en la participación del mercado solo por detrás de los Bancos, pero a diferencia de estos han visto disminuida su rentabilidad año tras año; sin embargo, representan la mayor …

Dynamic Model and Adaptive Control of a Transcritical Organic Rankine Cycle
… Cere- bellar Model Articulation Controller (CMAC) which uses a single-input-single-output strategy by pairing the controlled variables (CVs) to the manipulated variables (MVs) using Relative Gain Ar- ray (RGA) analysis of the system. The CMAC improves performance and robustness compared to a …

Intelligent motion control with an artificial cerebellum
… called “FOX”, uses a modified form of Albus’s CMAC neural network. It is trained to generate control signals that minimize a system’s performance error. A theoretical consideration of the adaptive control problem is used to show that FOX must assign each CMAC weight an “eligibility” value which …

An analysis of medical imaging costs in military treatment facilities
… (DMLSS), the CHAMPUS National Pricing System (CMAC), and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services website (CMS.gov). Our conclusions regarding overall cost of radiology services at military facilities is hampered by the use of average cost per test as a basis for analysis. However, …

Fuzzy neural networks
… network architectures (the feedforward network, CMAC, Hopfield network, Kohonen network) have been developed to aid in the solution of these problems. In this paper, we are interested in the feedforward network.

Learning control of bipedal dynamic walking robots with neural networks
… networks. Three neural network models (BP, CMAC and RBF networks) are studied. The RBF network is chosen as best, despite its weakness at covering high dimensional input spaces. To overcome this problem, a self-organizing scheme of data clustering is explored. This system is applied …

Innovation in low-cost video-laryngoscopy: Intubator V1-Indirect compared with Storz C-MAC in a simulated difficult airway
… existing gold-standard video laryngoscope (Storz CMAC with Dörges blade). Methods: We conducted a randomised, controlled, cross-over equivalence study with 100 skilled practitioners who had previous video laryngoscopy experience. Participants received instruction on the new device, and adequate …

Human inspired pattern recognition via local invariant features
… A human inspired approach was used to create a CMAC based neural network capable of pattern recognition. A comparison of 3 object, 30 object, and 50 object scenes were examined using edge and optimized SIFT based features as inputs and produced extensible results from 3 to 50 objects based on …

A comparison of the South African and Swaziland's labour market regulatory systems in dispute resolution
… Mediation and Arbitration Commission (CMAC), the Labour Court and the Industrial Court. At a later stage, the discussion takes a twist and focuses on the competing and overlapping jurisdiction between the labour dispute resolution systems as set out in labour legislations on the one …

Message Authentication Codes On Ultra-Low SWaP Devices
This thesis focuses on specific crypto algorithms, Message Authentication Codes (MACs), running on ultra-low SWaP devices. The type of MACs we used is hash-based message authentication codes (HMAC) and cipher-block-chaining message authentication code (CBC-MAC). The most important thing about …

Securing the Future of 5G Smart Dust: Optimizing Cryptographic Algorithms for Ultra-Low SWaP Energy-Harvesting Devices
While 5G energy harvesting makes 5G smart dust possible, stretching computation across power cycles affects cryptographic algorithms. This effect may lead to new security issues that make the system vulnerable to adversary attacks. Therefore, security measures are needed to protect data at rest and …

Simulation and Assessment of Long-Term Stormwater Basin Performance under Real-Time Control Retrofits
The use of real-time control (RTC) as an adaptation technique for improving existing stormwater systems has been gaining attention in recent years for its ability to enhance water quality and quantity treatment. A case study RTC retrofit of seven existing detention basins was simulated for a small …
