Summary This paper investigates the flocking problem for multiple unicycle systems in the presence of heterogenous input disturbances under directed topologies. Adaptive compensators are employed to eliminate the effect of disturbances. Based on the constructed potential functions, a class of novel distributed dynamic control algorithms are designed to implement flocking with connectivity preservation and collision avoidance with strongly connected directed graphs. It is noted that the proposed controller has released the constraints for connectivity preservation by only maintaining a minimum strongly connected directed graph in the initial topology. With the proposed methodology, the initial graph is allowed to contain those edges at boundary distances. Two illustrative examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the actuator involved in this paper.

“…There is much research offering complex solutions including software agents and artificial intelligence (Gelogo et al, 2015;Solanas et al, 2014;Aouatef et al, 2015;Olaru et al, 2013). Current research builds on the work of Santos et al (2015) and Kamberov et al (2016), and emphasises a need for a novel model to facilitate the dynamic integration of a device into a context-enabled computing system.…”

Ubiquitous and mobile context-aware computing is an essential component of the smart cities infrastructure. Widely available wireless networks, the maturity level of distributed computing and the increasing number of mobile devices have significantly influenced the human experience with computing. In the present paper, we discuss the need for a model that will be able to represent a formal structure of a context-aware system in a device. The core functionality of the model is expected to expose context-aware behaviour and support dynamic integration of mobile devices and context-aware behaviour. The major contribution of this work is to identify deficiencies of the existing model which is using the notions from sociology such as Role, Ownership and Responsibility.

Elderly and disabled population is rapidly increasing. It is important to uplift their living standards by improving the confidence towards daily activities. Navigation is an important task, most elderly and disabled people need assistance with. Replacing human assistance with an intelligent system which is capable of assisting human navigation via wheelchair systems is an effective solution. Hand gestures are often used in navigation systems. However, those systems do not possess the capability to accurately identify gesture variances. Therefore, this paper proposes a method to create an intelligent gesture classification system with a gesture model which was built based on human studies for every essential motion in domestic navigation with hand gesture variance compensation capability. Experiments have been carried out to evaluate user remembering and recalling capability and adaptability towards the gesture model. Dynamic Gesture Identification Module (DGIM), Static Gesture Identification Module (SGIM), and Gesture Clarifier (GC) have been introduced in order to identify gesture commands. The proposed system was analyzed for system accuracy and precision using results of the experiments conducted with human users. Accuracy of the intelligent system was determined with the use of confusion matrix. Further, those results were analyzed using Cohen’s kappa analysis in which overall accuracy, misclassification rate, precision, and Cohen’s kappa values were calculated.
