Science fiction reduces the eeriness of android robots: A field experiment

As suggested by the uncanny valley hypothesis, robots that resemble humans likely elicit feelings of eeriness. Based on the psychological model of meaning maintenance, we expected that the uncanny valley experience could be mitigated through a fictional story, due to the meaning-generating function of narratives. A field experiment was conducted, in which 75 participants interacted with the humanlike robot Telenoid. Prior to the interaction, they either read a short story, a non-narrative leaflet about the robot, or they received no preliminary information. Eeriness ratings were significantly lower in the science fiction condition than in both other conditions. This effect was mediated by higher perceived human-likeness of the robot. Our findings suggest that science fiction may provide meaning for otherwise unsettling future technologies.     

Multi-resource scheduling for FPGA systems

In modern cloud data centers, reconfigurable devices (FPGAs) are used as an alternative to Graphics Processing Units to accelerate data-intensive computations (e.g., machine learning, image and signal processing). Currently, FPGAs are configured to execute fixed workloads, repeatedly over long periods of time. This conflicts with the needs, proper to cloud computing, to flexibly allocate different workloads and to offer the use of physical devices to multiple users. This raises the need for novel, efficient FPGA scheduling algorithms that can decide execution orders close to the optimum in a short time. In this context, we propose a novel scheduling heuristic where groups of tasks that execute together are interposed by hardware reconfigurations. Our contribution is based on gathering tasks around a high-latency task that hides the latency of tasks, within the same group, that run in parallel and have shorter latencies. We evaluated our solution on a benchmark of 37500 random workloads, synthesized from realistic designs (i.e., topology, resource occupancy). For this testbench, on average, our heuristic produces optimum makespan solutions in 47.4% of the cases. It produces acceptable solutions for moderately constrained systems (i.e., the deadline falls within 10% of the optimum makespan) in 90.1% of the cases.     

Ranking of aircraft maintenance organization based on human factor performance

Aircraft maintenance organisation is a complex socio-technical setup, where human factors influence the quality of aircraft maintenance service. Maintenance service quality is assessed based on the commitment of management and its ability to provide suitable facility, tools, spares and manpower supported with comfortable environment and maintenance procedures. Assessment of the service quality of the aircraft maintenance organisation is a complex process. Airlines, regulators, insurance companies and other agencies need decision support system, to assess the performance of a maintenance organisation. This paper provides criteria and scientific approach for assessing the maintenance organisation; it presents a methodology of applying Analytical Hierarchy Process to prioritise the key functions and to rank the maintenance organisations under study. The study has established that maintenance service quality in airline is directly correlated to its fleet size.

Research and Development of a Network—Based Intelligent Maintenance Information System

A maintenance information system is an important part of equipment management.An intelli-gent maintenance information system(IMIS)is a synthesis of network technology,information technology and intelligent technology.The IMIS in used to finish flexible maintenance decision-making and fast main-tenance planning,which helps enterprises to effectively reduce maintenance cost and increase working effi-ciency.Because the IMIS integrates advanced technologies,its performance is better than a traditional one.The difference between an IMIS and a traditional maintenance information system,and the functions,struc-ture,important realizations,and application of an IMIS are discussed in this paper.

Reconfigurable hardware implementation of a phase-correlation stereoalgorithm

This paper describes the implementation of a stereo-vision system using Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). Reconfigurable hardware, including FPGAs, is an attractive platform for implementing vision algorithms due to its ability to exploit parallelism often found in these algorithms, and due to the speed with which applications can be developed as compared to hardware. The system outputs 8-bit, subpixel disparity estimates for 256× 360 pixel images at 30,fps. A local-weighted phase correlation algorithm for stereo disparity [Fleet, D. J.: {Int. Conf. Syst. Man Cybernetics 1:48–54 (1994)] is implemented. Despite the complexity of performing correlations on multiscale, multiorientation phase data, the system runs as much as 300 times faster in hardware than its software implementation. This paper describes the hardware platform used, the algorithm, and the issues encountered during its hardware implementation. Of particular interest is the implementation of multiscale, steerable filters, which are widely used in computer vision algorithms. Several trade-offs (reducing the number of filter orientations from three to two, using fixed-point computation, changing the location of one localized low-pass filter, and using L1 instead of L2 norms) were required to both fit the design into the available hardware and to achieve video-rate processing. Finally, results from the system are given both for synthetic data sets as well as several standard stereo-pair test images.     

R-Calculus for ELP:An Operational Approach to Knowledge Base Maintenance

Sme concepts used in knowledge base maintenace,such as sequence,new law,user‘s rejection and reconstructions of a knowledge base,are first introduced,and then a framework for extended logic programming(ELP)is given,where an extended logic program is equivalent to a knowledge base.A transition system called R-calculus for ELP is provided.For a given knowledge base and a user‘s rejection,the R-calculus for ELP will deduce best revisions of the base.The soundness and the completeness of the R-calculus for ELP are proved,and the R-calculus for ELP is implemented in Prolog.In addition,the research is compared with other relevant work.
