On a generalization of Bernstein polynomials and Bézier curves based on umbral calculus

In Winkel (2001) a generalization of Bernstein polynomials and Bézier curves based on umbral calculus has been introduced. In the present paper we describe new geometric and algorithmic properties of this generalization including: (1) families of polynomials introduced by Stancu (1968) and Goldman (1985), i.e., families that include both Bernstein and Lagrange polynomial, are generalized in a new way, (2) a generalized de Casteljau algorithm is discussed, (3) an efficient evaluation of generalized Bézier curves through a linear transformation of the control polygon is described, (4) a simple criterion for endpoint tangentiality is established.     

Human tracking system based on adaptive multi-feature mean-shift for robot under the double-layer locating mechanism

Human tracking has been a challenging task for robot in the past decades. In this paper, to realize the human following in a cluttered environment, a human tracking system based on adaptive multi-feature mean-shift (AMF-MS) under the double-layer locating mechanism (DLLM) is proposed to solve the problem of distinguishing target, occlusion, and quick turning. The DLLM, considering the course location processing and fine location processing, is designed to estimate the person’s position using the fusion of heterogeneous data. As an ID tag attached on target can be detected by RF antennas, the course locating method can track the target easily and quickly. The Bayes rule is introduced to calculate the probability where the tag exists due to the instability of RF signals. In the fine locating step, the AMF-MS is proposed because it can reduce computational load and represent target by multi-feature histogram function. Meanwhile, we combine extended Kalman filter and AMF-MS to overcome MS’s inability of occlusion. To control the robot following the target person precisely, an intelligent gear shift strategy based on fuzzy control is implemented by analyzing the robot structure. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed approach is robust to handle complex tracking conditions, and show the system has an optimum performance.

On the performance of economic model predictive control with self-tuning terminal cost

In this paper, we analyze the closed-loop performance of a recently introduced economic model predictive control (MPC) scheme with self-tuning terminal cost. To this end, we propose to use a generalized terminal region constraint instead of a generalized terminal equality constraint within the repeatedly solved optimization problem, which allows us to obtain improved closed-loop asymptotic average performance bounds. In particular, these bounds can be obtained a priori. We discuss how the necessary parameters for the generalized terminal region setting can be calculated, and we illustrate our findings with two numerical examples.

透射成像纸币冠字号定位方法

纸币成像方式分为反射和透射成像两种方式。反射方式成像的纸币图像清晰、背景单一,但采集任意方向进入点验设备的冠字号图像需两个图像传感器,占用仓室空间大;相同条件下,透射方式仅需一个图像传感器,具有空间上的优势,但透射方式的图像背景复杂、两面图像重叠、易光照不均。针对这些问题,提出一种冠字号定位的新算法。检测冠字号的字符间间隙特征点;在特征点检测基础上,进行水平投影,根据人民币固有属性计算冠字号区域的准确水平位置;在水平定位基础上,通过定位欧姆龙环间接计算出冠字号区域的准确垂直位置;利用连通域标记算法定位出单个字符。对2000张正常流通05版人民币进行测试,定位正确率为100％。
