    摘要: A system and method for providing an integrated virtual and real emulation environment for a manufacturing process to provide component compatibility testing and system performance prediction. In one embodiment, a real manufacturing system includes one or more real components that are controlled by a programmable logic controller. The real component can be replaced with a virtual component to determine whether it is compatible in the process, where the programmable controller sends signals to and receive signals from the virtual component as if it were the real component. For system performance prediction, a virtual manufacturing process is provided that includes virtual components where the virtual process is controlled by a programmable logic control as if it were a real process to determine the performance of a real system using the virtual process.

    摘要: A method for training a robot to execute a robotic task in a work environment includes moving the robot across its configuration space through multiple states of the task and recording motor schema describing a sequence of behavior of the robot. Sensory data describing performance and state values of the robot is recorded while moving the robot. The method includes detecting perceptual features of objects located in the environment, assigning virtual deictic markers to the detected perceptual features, and using the assigned markers and the recorded motor schema to subsequently control the robot in an automated execution of another robotic task. Markers may be combined to produce a generalized marker. A system includes the robot, a sensor array for detecting the performance and state values, a perceptual sensor for imaging objects in the environment, and an electronic control unit that executes the present method.

    摘要: A method and system for characterizing, detecting, and predicting or forecasting multiple target events from a past history of these events includes compressing temporal data streams into self-organizing map (SOM) clusters, and determining trajectories of the temporal streams via the clusters to predict the multiple target events. The system includes an evolutionary multi-objective optimization (EMO) module for processing the temporal data streams, which are obtained from a plurality of heterogeneous domains; a SOM module for characterizing the temporal data streams into self-organizing map clusters; and a target event prediction (TEP) module for generating prediction models of the map clusters. The SOM module employs a vector quantization method that places a set of vectors on a low-dimensional grid in an ordered fashion. The prediction models each include trajectories of the temporal data streams, and the system predicts the multiple target events using the trajectories.

    摘要: A method is provided for determining when to provide a refueling notification to a driver of a vehicle. A refueling behavior is determined for refueling the vehicle. The refueling behavior is associated at least in part to an amount of fuel customarily remaining in the vehicle when the vehicle is customarily refueled. A remaining amount of fuel in the vehicle and a fuel economy of the vehicle are determined. A distance the vehicle will travel to a next driving destination is estimated. An amount of fuel that will be used to travel to the next driving destination is estimated based on the estimated distance the vehicle will travel to the next driving destination and the fuel economy. A determination is made whether the amount of fuel that will be remaining in the vehicle after the vehicle travels to the next driving destination is less than the amount of a fuel customarily remaining in the vehicle when the vehicle is refueled. A refueling notification is actuated to a driver of a vehicle in response to the determination that the amount of fuel that will be remaining in the vehicle after the vehicle travels to the next driving destination will be less than the amount of fuel customarily remaining in the vehicle when the vehicle is refueled.

The method includes receiving a plurality of data series and input parameters, where the input parameters include a time step parameter, preprocessing the plurality of data series according to the input parameters, to form binned and classified data series, and processing the binned and classified data series. The processing includes initializing a Markov model for trend prediction, and training the Markov model for trend prediction of the binned and classified data series to form a trained Markov model. The method further includes deploying the trained Markov model for trend prediction, including outputting trend predictions. The method develops an architecture for the Markov model from the data series and the input parameters, and disposes the Markov model, having the architecture, for trend prediction.

    摘要: A system and method for determining events in a system or process, such as predicting fault events. The method includes providing data from the process, pre-processing data and converting the data to one or more temporal spike trains having spike amplitudes and a spike train length. The spike trains are provided to a dynamical neural network operating as a liquid state machine that includes a plurality of neurons that analyze the spike trains. The dynamical neural network is trained by known data to identify events in the spike train, where the dynamical neural network then analyzes new data to identify events. Signals from the dynamical neural network are then provided to a readout network that decodes the states and predicts the future events.
