Title: Structure learning for belief rule base expert system: A comparative study
Authors: Leilei Chang, Yu Zhou, Jiang Jiang, Mengjun Li, Xiaohang Zhang
Abstract: The Belief Rule Base (BRB) is an expert system which can handle both qualitative and quantitative information. One of the applications of the BRB is the Rule-base Inference Methodology using the Evidential Reasoning approach (RIMER). Using the BRB, RIMER can handle different types of information under uncertainty. However, there is a combinatorial explosion problem when there are too many attributes and/or too many alternatives for each attribute in the BRB. Most current approaches are designed to reduce the number of the alternatives for each attribute, where the rules are derived from physical systems and redundant in numbers. However, these approaches are not applicable when the rules are given by experts and the BRB should not be oversized. A structure learning approach is proposed using Grey Target (GT), Multidimensional Scaling (MDS), Isomap and Principle Component Analysis (PCA) respectively, named as GT–RIMER, MDS–RIMER, Isomap–RIMER and PCA–RIMER. A case is studied to evaluate the overall capability of an Armored System of Systems. The efficiency of the proposed approach is validated by the case study results: the BRB is downsized using any of the four techniques, and PCA–RIMER has shown excellent performance. Furthermore, the robustness of PCA–RIMER is further verified under different conditions with varied number of attributes.

Title: Electromagnetic Interference with RFID Readers in Hospitals
Authors: Yue Ying, Dirk Fischer, Uvo Hlscher
Abstract: Radio frequency identification (RFID) applications have become popular in many areas. RFID uses wireless technology to transmit information stored within a RFID-tag to a RFID-reader. Passive RFID-tags are powered through the received signal from the reader. Therefore the reader has to transmit its request with a certain power to bridge the gap between reader and tag. In contrast to bar-code technology this technique allows communication without requiring a line of sight. The RFID-technology is beginning to be introduced in medical environment, e.g. for patient tracking, staff location, inventory management etc. Implementation of this technology in medical environment has to guarantee the patients_ safety. However the electromagnetic field generated by the RFID-readers may interfere with medical devices. This study evaluates the electromagnetic interference of RFID-readers with medical devices, discusses the results with respect to the safety standards and proposes a process to manage the risks associated with RFID-technology in medical environment.

Title: Engineering Mathematics: The Odd Order Theorem Proof
Authors: Georges Gonthier
Abstract: Even with the assistance of computer tools, the formalized description and verification of research-level mathematics remains a daunting task, not least because of the talent with which mathematicians combine diverse theories to achieve their ends. By combining tools and techniques from type theory, language design, and software engineering we have managed to capture enough of these practices to formalize the proof of the Odd Order theorem, a landmark result in Group Theory.

Title: Low Power VLSI Implementation of Adaptive Noise Canceller Based on LeastMean Square Algorithm
Authors: Vakulabharanam Ramakrishna, Tipparti Anil Kumar
Abstract: This paper presents VLSI implementation of adaptive noise canceller based on least mean square algorithm. First, the adaptive parameters are obtained by simulating noise canceller on MATLAB. Simulink model of adaptive noise canceller was developed and the noise is suppressed to a much larger extent in recovering the original signal. The data such as input and output signals, desired signal, step size factor and coefficients of adaptive filter was processed by FPGA. Finally, the functions of field programmable gate array -based system structure for adaptive noise canceller based on LMS algorithm are synthesized, simulated, and implemented on XilinxXC3s200 field programmable gate array using Xilinx ISE tool. The research results show that it is feasible to implement and use adaptive least mean square filter based adaptive noise canceller design which consumed a low power of 0.156W at29.1° C in a single field programmable gate array chip.

Title: Information Fusion and Discounting Techniques for Decision Support in Aerospace
Authors: Fiona Browne , Yan Jin , Niall Rooney Hui Wang
Abstract: Decision makers are required to make critical decisions throughout all stages of a life-cycle in large-scale projects. These decisions are important as they impact upon the outcome and the success of projects. In this paper we present an evidential reasoning framework to aid decision-makers in the decision - making process. This approach utilizes the Dezert-Smarandache Theory (DSm) to fuse heterogeneous evidence sources that suffer from levels of uncertainty, imprecision and conflicts to provide beliefs for decision options. To analyze the impact that source reliability and priority has upon the decision making process a reliability discounting technique along with a priority discounting technique are applied. Application of the evidential reasoning framework is illustrated using a Case Study based in the Aerospace domain.
