Manufacturing automation, especially through implementation of autonomous ground vehicle (AGV) technology, has been under intensive study due to increased productivity and reduced variations. The objective of this paper is to present an algorithm on scheduling of an AGV that traverses desired locations on a manufacturing floor. Although many algorithms have been developed to achieve this objective, most of them rely on exhaustive search, which is time-consuming. A novel two-step algorithm that generates “good,” but not necessarily optimal, solutions for relatively large data sets (≈1000 points) is proposed, taking into account time constraints. A tradeoff analysis of computational expense versus algorithm performance is discussed. The algorithm enables the AGV to find a tour, which is as good as possible within the time constraint, using which it can travel through all given coordinates before returning to the starting location or a specified end point. Compared to exhaustive search methods, this algorithm generates results within a stipulated computation time of 30 s on a laptop personal computer.

AbstractIdentifying genomic regions with unusually high local haplotype homozygosity represents a powerful strategy to characterize candidate genes responding to natural or artificial positive selection. To that end, statistics measuring the extent of haplotype homozygosity within (e.g., EHH, iHS) and between (Rsb or XP-EHH) populations have been proposed in the literature. The rehh package for R was previously developed to facilitate genome-wide scans of selection, based on the analysis of long-range haplotypes. However, its performance wasn’t sufficient to cope with the growing size of available data sets. Here we propose a major upgrade of the rehh package, which includes an improved processing of the input files, a faster algorithm to enumerate haplotypes, as well as multi-threading. As illustrated with the analysis of large human haplotype data sets, these improvements decrease the computation time by more than an order of magnitude. This new version of rehh will thus allow performing iHS-, Rsb- or XP-EHH-based scans on large data sets. The package rehh 2.0 is available from the CRAN repository (http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rehh/index.html) together with help files and a detailed manual.

Spectrum-imaging is a useful technique for comparing different processing methods on very large data sets which are identical for each method. This paper is concerned with comparing methods of electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) quantitative analysis on the Al-Li system. The spectrum-image analyzed here was obtained from an Al-10at%Li foil aged to produce δ' precipitates that can span the foil thickness. Two 1024 channel EELS spectra offset in energy by 1 eV were recorded and stored at each pixel in the 80x80 spectrum-image (25 Mbytes). An energy range of 39-89eV (20 channels/eV) are represented. During processing the spectra are either subtracted to create an artifact corrected difference spectrum, or the energy offset is numerically removed and the spectra are added to create a normal spectrum. The spectrum-images are processed into 2D floating-point images using methods and software described in [1].

Automated Scanning

Individual particle analysis involves the study of tens of thousands of particles using automated scanning electron microscopy and elemental analysis by energy-dispersive, x-ray emission spectroscopy (EDS). EDS produces large data sets that must be analyzed using multi-variate statistical techniques. A complete study uses cluster analysis, discriminant analysis, and factor or principal components analysis (PCA). The three techniques are used in the study of particles sampled during the FeLine cruise to the mid-Pacific ocean in the summer of 1990. The mid-Pacific aerosol provides information on long range particle transport, iron deposition, sea salt ageing, and halogen chemistry.Aerosol particle data sets suffer from a number of difficulties for pattern recognition using cluster analysis. There is a great disparity in the number of observations per cluster and the range of the variables in each cluster. The variables are not normally distributed, they are subject to considerable experimental error, and many values are zero, because of finite detection limits. Many of the clusters show considerable overlap, because of natural variability, agglomeration, and chemical reactivity.

Singular Data

In this article investigated the features of processing large arrays of information for distributed systems. A method of singular data decomposition is used to reduce the amount of data processed, eliminating redundancy. Dependencies of com­putational efficiency on distributed systems were obtained using the MPI messa­ging protocol and MapReduce node interaction software model. Were analyzed the effici­ency of the application of each technology for the processing of different sizes of data: Non — distributed systems are inefficient for large volumes of information due to low computing performance. It is proposed to use distributed systems that use the method of singular data decomposition, which will reduce the amount of information processed. The study of systems using the MPI protocol and MapReduce model obtained the dependence of the duration calculations time on the number of processes, which testify to the expediency of using distributed computing when processing large data sets. It is also found that distributed systems using MapReduce model work much more efficiently than MPI, especially with large amounts of data. MPI makes it possible to perform calculations more efficiently for small amounts of information. When increased the data sets, advisable to use the Map Reduce model.

Automatic Scoring

A programming contest generally involves the host presenting a set of logical and mathematical problems to the contestants. The contestants are required to write computer programs that are capable of solving these problems. An online judge system is used to automate the judging procedure of the programs that are submitted by the users. Online judges are systems designed for the reliable evaluation of the source codes submitted by the users. Traditional online judging platforms are not ideally suitable for programming labs, as they do not support partial scoring and efficient detection of plagiarized codes. When considering this fact, in this paper, we present an online judging framework that is capable of automatic scoring of codes by detecting plagiarized contents and the level of accuracy of codes efficiently. Our system performs the detection of plagiarism by detecting fingerprints of programs and using the fingerprints to compare them instead of using the whole file. We used winnowing to select fingerprints among k-gram hash values of a source code, which was generated by the Rabin–Karp Algorithm. The proposed system is compared with the existing online judging platforms to show the superiority in terms of time efficiency, correctness, and feature availability. In addition, we evaluated our system by using large data sets and comparing the run time with MOSS, which is the widely used plagiarism detection technique.
