Paperback. Condition: New. In the last decades robots are expected to be of increasing intelligence to deal with a large range of tasks. Especially, robots are supposed to be able to learn manipulation skills from humans. To this end, a number of learning algorithms and techniques have been developed and successfully implemented for various robotic tasks. Among these methods, learning from demonstrations (LfD) enables robots to effectively and efficiently acquire skills by learning from human demonstrators, such that a robot can be quickly programmed to perform a new task.This book introduces recent results on the development of advanced LfD-based learning and control approaches to improve the robot dexterous manipulation. First, there's an introduction to the simulation tools and robot platforms used in the authors' research. In order to enable a robot learning of human-like adaptive skills, the book explains how to transfer a human user's arm variable stiffness to the robot, based on the online estimation from the muscle electromyography (EMG). Next, the motion and impedance profiles can be both modelled by dynamical movement primitives such that both of them can be planned and generalized for new tasks. Furthermore, the book introduces how to learn the correlation between signals collected from demonstration, i.e., motion trajectory, stiffness profile estimated from EMG and interaction force, using statistical models such as hidden semi-Markov model and Gaussian Mixture Regression. Several widely used human-robot interaction interfaces (such as motion capture-based teleoperation) are presented, which allow a human user to interact with a robot and transfer movements to it in both simulation and real-word environments. Finally, improved performance of robot manipulation resulted from neural network enhanced control strategies is presented. A large number of examples of simulation and experiments of daily life tasks are included in this book to facilitate better understanding of the readers.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This open access book focuses on cutting-edge research in high-performance concrete. Concrete has been a main construction material all over the world in the past century. As the demand for construction rises, the need for concrete with stronger performance grows as well. Existing studies on high-performance concrete are mainly on fiber admixtures and reactive mineral powder admixtures, with a focus on concrete proportioning and rheological properties. Through in-depth analysis of real-world engineering cases and demonstration of the latest research achievements, this book aims to provide a systematic review of research on high-performance concrete for civil engineers and scholars in related research fields. The topics of this book include but are not limited to the following:1. Fiber Reinforced Concrete and Admixture Factors;2. Effect of Mineral Reactive Powders on Concrete;3. High Performance Concrete Packing Density and Rheological Properties;4. High Performance Concrete Proportioning and Theoretical Research;5. Research on Mechanical Properties of High Performance Concrete.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. THE ONE-STOP RESOURCE FOR ANY INDIVIDUAL OR ORGANIZATION CONSIDERING FOG COMPUTING Fog and Fogonomics is a comprehensive and technology-centric resource that highlights the system model, architectures, building blocks, and IEEE standards for fog computing platforms and solutions. The "fog" is defined as the multiple interconnected layers of computing along the continuum from cloud to endpoints such as user devices and things including racks or microcells in server closets, residential gateways, factory control systems, and more. The authorsnoted experts on the topicreview business models and metrics that allow for the economic assessment of fog-based information communication technology (ICT) resources, especially mobile resources. The book contains a wide range of templates and formulas for calculating quality-of-service values. Comprehensive in scope, it covers topics including fog computing technologies and reference architecture, fog-related standards and markets, fog-enabled applications and services, fog economics (fogonomics), and strategy. This important resource: Offers a comprehensive text on fog computingDiscusses pricing, service level agreements, service delivery, and consumption of fog computingExamines how fog has the potential to change the information and communication technology industry in the next decadeDescribes how fog enables new business models, strategies, and competitive differentiation, as with ecosystems of connected and smart digital products and servicesIncludes case studies featuring integration of fog computing, communication, and networking systems Written for product and systems engineers and designers, as well as for faculty and students, Fog and Fogonomics is an essential book that explores the technological and economic issues associated with fog computing.
