Position and Angle Control for a Two-wheel Robot
Chih-Hui Chiu,Ya-Fu Peng 제어·로봇·시스템학회 2017 International Journal of Control, Automation, and Vol.15 No.5
In this paper, a two-wheel robot (TWR) system is implemented based on a position and angle decoupledintelligent backstepping control system. The decoupled method provides a simple method to achieve asymptoticstability control for a fourth-order nonlinear TWR system using a second-order dynamics model. Moreover, adaptiveoutput recurrent cerebellar model articulation control (AORCMAC) is designed in this study to imitate an idealbackstepping controller (IBC). Furthermore, to compensate for the difference between the two controllers mentioned,a compensator is used. Based on the Lyapunov stability method, the stability of the closed-loop system canbe guaranteed. To train the AORCMAC effectively, the variable learning rates that guarantee the convergence ofthe system are proposed. Finally, simulation and experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposedcontrol method for TWR control.

Objective: To assess the association between condom use and oral contraceptive consumption and the risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Perth clinics. A total of 348 women responded to the structured questionnaire. Information sought included demographic and lifestyle characteristics such as the use of condom for contraception, consumption of oral contraceptive, and duration of oral contraceptive usage. Crude and adjusted odds ratio (OR) and associated 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using unconditional logistic regression models and reported as estimates of the relative risk. Results: The prevalence of CIN was found to be 15.8%. The duration of oral contraceptive consumption among women with abnormal Papanicolaou (Pap) smear result indicating CIN was significantly shorter than those without abnormal Pap smear result (mean±SD, 5.6±5.2 years vs. 8.2±7.6 years; p=0.002). Comparing to ≤3 years usage, prolonged consumption of oral contraceptive for ≥10 years reduced the risk of CIN (p=0.012). However, use of condom for contraception might not be associated with a reduced risk of CIN after accounting for the effects of confounding factors (adjusted OR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.05 to 5.11; p=0.577). Conclusion: Use of oral contraceptives, but not condoms, for contraception appeared to be inversely associated with CIN. Prolonged use of oral contraceptive demonstrated its benefits of reducing the risk of CIN.

Personalized genetic profiling has focused on improving treatment efficacy and predicting risk stratification by identifying mutated genes and selecting targeted agents according to genetic testing. Therefore, we evaluated the role of genetic profiling and tumor mutation burden (TMB) using next-generation sequencing in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC). The relapse mutation signature (RMS) and chromatin remodeling mutation signature (CRMS) were explored to predict the risk of relapse in patients with HNSC treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with platinum-based chemotherapy. Patients in the high RMS and CRMS groups showed significantly shorter relapse-free survival than those in the low RMS and CRMS groups, respectively (p < 0.001 and p = 0.006). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that extranodal extension, CCRT response, and three somatic mutation profiles (TMB, RMS, and CRMS) were independent risk predictors for HNSC relapse. The predictive nomogram showed satisfactory performance in predicting relapse-free survival in patients with HNSC treated with CCRT.

Background: Whether ambient exposure to environmental pollutants leads to hematopoietic malignancies such as multiple myeloma (MM) remains to be ascertained. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the immunotyping distribution of serum monoclonal paraprotein and the environmental influence on MM and monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance (MGUS) in the Taiwanese population. Materials and Methods: Serum protein electrophoresis with immunosubtraction by the capillary zone electrophoresis method was performed as primary screening for MM and MGUS. Clinical, pathological, and residence data of patients were also obtained. Results: From August, 2013 to June, 2015, a total of 327 patients underwent serum protein electrophoresis with immunosubtraction. Among these, 281 demonstrated no remarkable findings or non-malignant oligoclonal gammopathy, 23 were detected to have MGUS, 18 were identified as MM, and a further 5 were found as other malignancies. The most frequent immunotyping distribution of serum monoclonal paraprotein was IgG kappa (54.3%, n=25), followed by IgA lambda (15.2%, n=7) and IgG lambda (10.9%, n=5) in subjects with gammopathy. Additionally, it was shown that the elderly (OR: 4.61, 95% CI: 1.88-11.30, P<0.01) and males (OR: 2.04, 95% CI: 1.04-4.02, P=0.04) had significantly higher risk of developing MM and MGUS. There was no obvious impact of environmental factors on the health risk of MM and MGUS evolution (OR: 0.77, 95% CI: 0.40-1.50, P=0.49). Conclusions: The most frequent immunotyping distribution of serum monoclonal paraprotein included IgG kappa, IgA lambda and IgG lambda in MM and MGUS in the Taiwanese population. The elderly and male subjects are at significantly higher risk of MM and MGUS development, but there was no obvious impact of environmental factors on risk.

Three types of petroleum-based tricycloalkyl-containing methacrylate polymers derived from adamantane and DCPD were synthesized and characterized, poly(1-adamantyl methacrylate) (PADMA), poly(tricyclodecyl methacrylate) (PTCDMA) and poly(1-adamantyl methacrylate-co-tricyclodecyl methacrylate) (P(ADMA-co-TCDMA)). As expected, the incorporation of a tricycloalkyl substituent as a pendant group on the methacrylate polymer contributed to enhancement of thermal stability in combination with high transparency in the UV–vis region and long-term thermal resistance, in addition to improved mechanical properties, a lower CTE, decreased water absorption and a lower dielectric constant. These merits make tricycloalkyl-containing methacrylate polymers promising candidates for use as high value-added optical plastics in the microelectronics and optoelectronics applications.
