Clustering of tethered satellite system simulation data by an adaptive neuro-fuzzy algorithm
Recent developments in neuro-fuzzy systems indicate that the concepts of adaptive pattern recognition, when used to identify appropriate control actions corresponding to clusters of patterns representing system states in dynamic nonlinear control systems, may result in innovative designs. A modular, unsupervised neural network architecture, in which fuzzy learning rules have been embedded is used for on-line identification of similar states. The architecture and control rules involved in Adaptive Fuzzy Leader Clustering (AFLC) allow this system to be incorporated in control systems for identification of system states corresponding to specific control actions. We have used this algorithm to cluster the simulation data of Tethered Satellite System (TSS) to estimate the range of delta voltages necessary to maintain the desired length rate of the tether. The AFLC algorithm is capable of on-line estimation of the appropriate control voltages from the corresponding length error and length rate error without a priori knowledge of their membership functions and familarity with the behavior of the Tethered Satellite System

Embedding Multi-Task Address-Event- Representation Computation
Address-Event-Representation, AER, is a communication protocol that is
intended to transfer neuronal spikes between bioinspired chips. There are
several AER tools to help to develop and test AER based systems, which may
consist of a hierarchical structure with several chips that transmit spikes
among them in real-time, while performing some processing. Although these
tools reach very high bandwidth at the AER communication level, they require
the use of a personal computer to allow the higher level processing of the
event information. We propose the use of an embedded platform based on a
multi-task operating system to allow both, the AER communication and
processing without the requirement of either a laptop or a computer. In this
paper, we present and study the performance of an embedded multi-task AER
tool, connecting and programming it for processing Address-Event
information from a spiking generator.Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación TEC2006-11730-C03-0
Spike Processing on an Embedded Multi-task Computer: Image Reconstruction
There is an emerging philosophy, called Neuro-informatics, contained
in the Artificial Intelligence field, that aims to emulate how living beings do tasks
such as taking a decision based on the interpretation of an image by emulating spiking
neurons into VLSI designs and, therefore, trying to re-create the human brain at
its highest level. Address-Event-Representation (AER) is a communication protocol
that has embedded part of the processing. It is intended to transfer spikes between
bioinspired chips. An AER based system may consist of a hierarchical structure with
several chips that transmit spikes among them in real-time, while performing some
processing. There are several AER tools to help to develop and test AER based systems.
These tools require the use of a computer to allow the higher level processing of
the event information, reaching very high bandwidth at the AER communication level.
We propose the use of an embedded platform based on a multi-task operating system
to allow both, the AER communication and processing without the requirement of either
a laptop or a computer. In this paper, we present and study the performance of a
new philosophy of a frame-grabber AER tool based on a multi-task environment. This
embedded platform is based on the Intel XScale processor which is governed by an
embedded GNU/Linux system. We have connected and programmed it for processing
Address-Event information from a spiking generator.Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia TEC2006-11730-C03-0
Graph Neural Networks Meet Neural-Symbolic Computing: A Survey and Perspective
Neural-symbolic computing has now become the subject of interest of both
academic and industry research laboratories. Graph Neural Networks (GNN) have
been widely used in relational and symbolic domains, with widespread
application of GNNs in combinatorial optimization, constraint satisfaction,
relational reasoning and other scientific domains. The need for improved
explainability, interpretability and trust of AI systems in general demands
principled methodologies, as suggested by neural-symbolic computing. In this
paper, we review the state-of-the-art on the use of GNNs as a model of
neural-symbolic computing. This includes the application of GNNs in several
domains as well as its relationship to current developments in neural-symbolic
computing.Comment: Updated version, draft of accepted IJCAI2020 Survey Pape
