Target detection poses problems for moving animals, such as tiger beetles, that track targets visually. The pursuer's movements
degrade target image contrast and induce reafferent image movement that confounds continuous detection of prey. In nature,
beetles pursue prey discontinuously with several iterations of stop-and-go running. The beetle's dynamics were analyzed by
filming pursuits of prey or experimenter-controlled dummies. Durations of stops are inversely related to prey visual angular
velocity; as the prey image moves between neighboring ommatidial fields, the beetle relocalizes it and renews running. During
subsequent runs, translation and rotation depend upon prey visual angular velocity and position, respectively, seen during
the previous stop. The beetle runs, then stops, while prey continues moving. After two to three iterations of stop-and-go
the beetle catches its prey, suggesting open-loop control of running. Computational model simulations produce good qualitative
spatio-temporal fit with actual pursuits. However, when pursuing prey dummies, beetles track continuously and quickly follow
changes in target position, suggesting closed-loop control using a position-sensitive servo mechanism. Differences between
these types of pursuit control system are discussed with respect to limitations in signal detection, particularly spatio-temporal
contrast, that may force beetles to use an open-loop system.

To satisfy the requirements of real-time and high quality mosaics,a bionic compound eye visual system was designed by simulating the visual mechanism of a fly compound eye.Several CCD cameras were used in this system to imitate the small eyes of a compound eye.Based on the optical analysis of this system,a direct panoramic image mosaic algorithm was proposed.Several sub-images were collected by the bionic compound eye visual system,and then the system obtained the overlapping proportions of these sub-images and cut the overlap sections of the neighboring images.Thus,a panoramic image with a large field of view was directly mosaicked,which expanded the field and guaranteed the high resolution.The experimental results show that the time consumed by the direct mosaic algorithm is only 2.2% of that by the traditional image mosaic algorithm while guaranteeing mosaic quality.Furthermore,the proposed method effectively solved the problem of misalignment of the mosaic image and eliminated mosaic cracks as a result of the illumination factor and other factors.This method has better real-time properties compared to other methods. 相似文献

Saccade and smooth pursuit are two important functions of human eye.In order to enable bionic eye to imitate the two functions,a control method that implements saccade and smooth pursuit based on the three-dimensional coordinates of target is proposed.An optimal observation position is defined for bionic eye based on three-dimensional coordinates.A kind of motion planning method with high accuracy is developed.The motion parameters of stepper motor consisting of angle acceleration and turning time are computed according to the position deviation,the target's angular velocity and the stepper motor's current angular velocity in motion planning.The motors are controlled with the motion parameters moving to given position with desired angular velocity in schedule time.The experimental results show that the bionic eye can move to optimal observation positions in 0.6 s from initial location and the accuracy of 3D coordinates is improved.In addition,the bionic eye can track a target within the error of less than 20 pixels based on three-dimensional coordinates.It is verified that saccade and smooth pursuit of bionic eye based on three-dimensional coordinates are feasible. 相似文献

The online detection of a monotonic trend in a time series with a time‐varying mean is an important task in medical applications like intensive care monitoring, that is rendered difficult by autocorrelations. Statistical control charts designed for industrial processes are not adequate as they typically rely on a fixed target value, and many detection rules assume a trend to be linear or neglect autocorrelations. We report our experience with the online detection of slow monotonic trends. Our approach is based on a moving time window, and time‐varying autocorrelations are estimated online using parametric assumptions. The performance of versions of this approach is investigated in a simulation study. We find that shrinkage estimation of the time‐varying mean improves the results.

Extenics is a newly developed interdisciplinary subject combining mathematics, philosophy and engineering. It providesuseful formalized qualitative tools and quantitative tools for solving contradictory problems. In this paper, extension theory isintroduced briefly and the primary applications of this theory and methods in bionic engineering research are discussed. Theextension model of biological coupling functional system is established. In order to identify the primary and secondary sequencingof coupling elements, the Extension Analytic Hierarchy Process (EAHP) was adopted to analyze the contribution ofeach coupling element to the coupling functional system. Thus, the influence weight factor of each coupling element can bedetermined, so as to provide a new approach for solving primary and secondary sequencing problem of coupling elements in aquantitative way, and facilitate the subsequent bionic coupling study. 相似文献

Bionic underwater robots have been a hot research area in recent years. The motion control methods for a kind of bionic underwater robot with two undulating fins are discussed in this paper. The equations of motion for the bionic underwater robot are described. To apply the reinforcement learning to the actual robot control, a Supervised Neural Q_learning (SNQL) algorithm is put forward. This algorithm is based on conventional Q_learning algorithm, but has three remarkable distinctions: (1) using a feedforward neural network to approximate the Q_function table; (2) adopting a learning sample database to speed up learning and improve the stability of learning system; (3) introducing a supervised control in the earlier stage of learning for safety and to speed up learning again. Experiments of swimming straightforward are carried out with SNQL algorithm. Results indicate that the SNQL algorithm is more effective than pure neural Q_learning or supervised control. It is a feasible approach to figure out the motion control for bionic underwater robots. 相似文献

In this paper, a bionic optimization algorithm based dimension reduction method named Ant Colony Optimization -Selection (ACO-S) is proposed for high-dimensional datasets. Because microarray datasets comprise tens of thousands of features (genes), they are usually used to test the dimension reduction techniques. ACO-S consists of two stages in which two well-known ACO algorithms, namely ant system and ant colony system, are utilized to seek for genes, respectively. In the first stage, a modified ant system is used to filter the nonsignificant genes from high-dimensional space, and a number of promising genes are reserved in the next step. In the second stage, an improved ant colony system is applied to gene selection. In order to enhance the search ability of ACOs, we propose a method for calculating priori available heuristic information and design a fuzzy logic controller to dynamically adjust the number of ants in ant colony system. Furthermore, we devise another fuzzy logic controller to tune the parameter (q0) in ant colony system. We evaluate the performance of ACO-S on five microarray datasets, which have dimensions varying from 7129 to 12000. We also compare the performance of ACO-S with the results obtained from four existing well-known bionic optimization algorithms. The comparison results show that ACO-S has a notable ability to generate a gene subset with the smallest size and salient features while yielding high classification accuracy. The comparative results generated by ACO-S adopting different classifiers are also given. The proposed method is shown to be a promising and effective tool for mining high-dimension data and mobile robot navigation. 相似文献

1. The path, eye and body movements of a teleost fish (the leatherjacket Acanthaluteres spilomelanurus) approaching and taking food were measured by cinematography. 2. Fixation of the food by movement of the eyes is an invariable feature of the approach. The eyes then remain aligned with the target while the body moves forward and round to bring the mouth to the food. 3. When pursuing pieces of food moving vertically at constant velocity through the water these fish normally trace out the pathway that can be calculated by assuming the fish aims constantly at the food. Predictive pathways that imply anticipation of the point of intersection with the food are not regularly seen. 4. Deviations from pursuit occur sporadically, usually in the direction of a predictive path, particularly when the fish approach falling food from below. 5. The geometry of the situation suggests that predictive paths may sometimes be generated if the alignment of eye and body during the pursuit of moving food can be delayed. In approaches from below this may be because forward movement of the fish would tend to stabilize the image of the falling food in the retina. 6. We suggest that a simple linked control system using both eye and body movements to fixate retinal images will on occasions generate predictive pathways without any need for the central nervous system to calculate them in advance. 相似文献

The adaptation to light of compound eyes in insects has been extensively documented and their adaptive role is well understood. Much less attention has been paid, however, to the control of ocelli sensitivity, a study which could help us to understand the functional role of these simple eyes. We analyzed the dynamic changes in the distribution of screening pigments which occur in the ocelli of the haematophagous bug, Triatoma infestans, when the insects are subjected either to light/dark cycles (LD), to constant darkness (DD) or constant light (LL). We then compared these changes with those occurring in the compound eyes of the same individuals and found that, while compound eyes are subject to the control of an endogenous circadian clock, the adaptation of the ocelli is entirely dependent on environmental illumination. In addition, we have observed that environmental temperature is not involved in the control of screening pigments in either ocelli or compound eyes as a direct stimulus, nor as a Zeitgeber. The existence of a differential control in the components of the dual visual system represents an adaptive advantage in the adjustment of visual sensitivity in insects exposed to quick changes in lighting conditions in their natural habitat. We discuss the implications of our findings with regards to the biology of triatomines and with respect to the general understanding the functional role of insect ocelli. 相似文献

Background
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT), a process of acquisition and fixation of foreign genetic material, is an important biological phenomenon. Several approaches to HGT inference have been proposed. However, most of them either rely on approximate, non-phylogenetic methods or on the tree reconciliation, which is computationally intensive and sensitive to parameter values.Results
We investigate the locus tree inference problem as a possible alternative that combines the advantages of both approaches. We present several algorithms to solve the problem in the parsimony framework. We introduce a novel tree mapping, which allows us to obtain a heuristic solution to the problems of locus tree inference and duplication classification.Conclusions
Our approach allows for faster comparisons of gene and species trees and improves known algorithms for duplication inference in the presence of polytomies in the species trees. We have implemented our algorithms in a software tool available at https://github.com/mciach/LocusTreeInference.16.

The grasping of a moving object requires the development of a motor strategy to anticipate the trajectory of the target and
to compute an optimal course of interception. During the performance of perception-action cycles, a preprogrammed prototypical
movement trajectory, a motor schema, may highly reduce the control load. Subjects were asked to hit a target that was moving
along a circular path by means of a cursor. Randomized initial target positions and velocities were detected in the periphery
of the eyes, resulting in a saccade toward the target. Even when the target disappeared, the eyes followed the target’s anticipated
course. The Gestalt of the trajectories was dependent on target velocity. The prediction capability of the motor schema was
investigated by varying the visibility range of cursor and target. Motor schemata were determined to be of limited precision,
and therefore visual feedback was continuously required to intercept the moving target. To intercept a target, the motor schema
caused the hand to aim ahead and to adapt to the target trajectory. The control of cursor velocity determined the point of
interception. From a modeling point of view, a neural network was developed that allowed the implementation of a motor schema
interacting with feedback control in an iterative manner. The neural net of the Wilson type consists of an excitation-diffusion
layer allowing the generation of a moving bubble. This activation bubble runs down an eye-centered motor schema and causes a planar arm model to move toward the target. A bubble provides local integration and straightening of the trajectory during repetitive moves. The schema adapts to task demands
by learning and serves as forward controller. On the basis of these model considerations the principal problem of embedding
motor schemata in generalized control strategies is discussed. 相似文献

Many animals visualize and track small moving targets at long distances-be they prey, approaching predators or conspecifics. Insects are an excellent model system for investigating the neural mechanisms that have evolved for this challenging task. Specialized small target motion detector (STMD) neurons in the optic lobes of the insect brain respond strongly even when the target size is below the resolution limit of the eye. Many STMDs also respond robustly to small targets against complex stationary or moving backgrounds. We hypothesized that this requires a complex mechanism to avoid breakthrough responses by background features, and yet to adequately amplify the weak signal of tiny targets. We compared responses of dragonfly STMD neurons to small targets that begin moving within the receptive field with responses to targets that approach the same location along longer trajectories. We find that responses along longer trajectories are strongly facilitated by a mechanism that builds up slowly over several hundred milliseconds. This allows the neurons to give sustained responses to continuous target motion, thus providing a possible explanation for their extraordinary sensitivity. 相似文献
