Abstract:
SummarySupernovae have provided the evidence for the existence of a dominant dark energy component of the Universe. The commonly accepted form of such a component is the quintessence. Here, we show that the possible nature of this component is rather well constrained by combining the various existing observational cosmological data. However, relaxing some of the various hypothesis can lead to somewhat different results.

Abstract:
Purpose – Robot localization technology has been widely studied for decades and a lot of remarkable approaches have been developed. However, in practice, this technology has hardly been applied to common day-to-day deployment scenarios. The purpose of this paper is to present a novel approach that focuses on improving the localization robustness in complicated environment. Design/methodology/approach – The localization robustness is improved by dynamically switching the localization components (such as the environmental camera, the laser range finder and the depth camera). As the components are highly heterogeneous, they are developed under the robotic technology component (RTC) framework. This simplifies the developing process by increasing the potential for reusability and future expansion. To realize this switching, the localization reliability for each component is modeled, and a configuration method for dynamically selecting dependable components at run-time is presented. Findings – The experimental results show that this approach significantly decreases robot lost situation in the complicated environment. The robustness is further enhanced through the cooperation of heterogeneous localization components. Originality/value – A multi-component automatic switching approach for robot localization system is developed and described in this paper. The reliability of this system is proved to be a substantial improvement over single-component localization techniques.

Abstract:
Abstract. Title of the paper: The Robustness of BLUP and EBLUP The expectations of BLP and BLUP used as estimator for fixed effects and as predictor for random effects were investigated concerning the property "unbiasedness". Different aspects of robustness research on prediction procedures are discussed. The robustness of BLUP and EBLUP was investigated with respect to the distribution ofthe random components of the model, the degree of balancedness of the experimental design, influence of the variance components ratio and different variance component estimators used in EBLUP(2) on the bases of a Computer Simulation in the random one-way model. Criteria used for the evaluation were the mean squared error (MSE) and the selection gain. Besides, an idea of the overestimation of the accuracy of EBLUP by the naive MSE approximation based on the MSE formulas of BLUP with variance component estimations instead of unknown parameters is given.

Abstract:
Shor's factorisation algorithm is a combination of classical pre- and post-processing and a quantum period finding (QPF) subroutine which allows an exponential speed up over classical factoring algorithms. We consider the stability of this subroutine when exposed to a discrete error model that acts to perturb the computational trajectory of a quantum computer. Through detailed state vector simulations of an appropriate quantum circuit, we show that the error locations within the circuit itself heavily influences the probability of success of the QPF subroutine. The results also indicate that the naive estimate of required component precision is too conservative.

Abstract:
The traceability of manufactured components is growing in importance with the greater use of digital service solutions offered and with an increased digitalization of manufacturing logistics. In this paper, we investigate the use of image-plane laser speckles as a tool to acquire a unique code from the surface of the component and the ability to use this pattern as a secure component-specific digital fingerprint. Intensity correlation is used as a numerical identifier. Metal sheets of different materials and steel pipes are considered. It is found that laser speckles are robust against surface alterations caused by surface compression and scratching and that the correct pattern reappears from a surface contaminated by oil after cleaning. In this investigation, the detectability is close to 100% for all surfaces considered, with zero false positives. The exception is a heavily oxidized surface wiped by a cotton cloth between recordings. It is further found that the main source for lost detectability is caused by misalignment between the registration and detection geometries where a positive match is lost by a change in angle in the order of 60 mrad. Therefore, as long as the registration and detection systems, respectively, use the same optical arrangement, laser speckles have the ability to serve as unique component identifiers without having to add extra markings or a dedicated sensor to the component.

Abstract:
We present new intelligent logo watermarking based on independent component analysis (ICA) in which a binary logo watermark is embedded in a host image in a wavelet domain. To improve robustness, an image adaptive watermarking algorithm is applied by a stochastic approach based on a noise visibility function (NVF). The algorithm design, evaluation, and experimentation are described. Experimental results show that the logo watermark is perfectly extracted by ICA with excellent invisibility and with robustness against various image and digital processing operators and almost all compression algorithms such as Jpeg, jpeg 2000, SPIHT, EZW, and principal component analysis (PCA) based compression.

Abstract:
The term ‘digital divide' refers to the gap between individuals, households, businesses and geographic areas with regard to both their opportunities to access Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and to their use of Internet. Composite indicators are regularly used for measuring the divide and in benchmarking the country's performance. But often it creates controversies regarding the subjectivity that is connected with their construction methodology more specifically the weighting and aggregation issues. The paper attempts to assess the robustness of the ranks generated by the composite digital divide index using different weighting and aggregation schemes in case of Asian countries. Here four weighting techniques Iyengar-Sudarshan Method, Benefit of Doubt Method, Principal Component Analysis and Unobserved Component Model and three techniques of aggregation viz. Linear Aggregation, Geometric Aggregation and Weighted Displaced Ideal Method are used for mutual comparison.

Abstract:
The objective of this paper is to integrate the post-disaster network access to critical facilities into the network robustness assessment, considering the geographical exposure of infrastructure to natural hazards. Conventional percolation modelling that uses generating function to measure network robustness fails to characterize spatial networks due to the degree correlation. In addition, the giant component alone is not sufficient to represent the performance of transportation networks in the post-disaster setting, especially in terms of the access to critical facilities (i.e. emergency services). Furthermore, the failure probability of various links in the face of different hazards needs to be encapsulated in simulation. To bridge this gap, this paper proposed the metric robust component and a probabilistic link-removal strategy to assess network robustness through a percolation-based simulation framework. A case study has been conducted on the Portland Metro road network during an M9.0 earthquake scenario. The results revealed how the number of critical facilities severely impacts network robustness. Besides, earthquake-induced failures led to a two-phase percolation transition in robustness performance. The proposed robust component metric and simulation scheme can be generalized into a wide range of scenarios, thus enabling engineers to pinpoint the impact of disastrous disruption on network robustness. This research can also be generalized to identify critical facilities and sites for future development.

Abstract:
This article presents an ontology-supported approach to tackle the complexity of the Robustness Validation (RV) process of automotive electrical/electronic (E/E) components. The approach uses formalized knowledge from the RV process and stress, operating, and load profiles, so-called Mission Profiles (MPs). In contrast to the error-prone industrially established manual procedure, we show how component characteristics are formalized in OWL in order to form the foundation of an efficient automated analysis selection and decision support during the RV process. Additionally, a rule-based transformation of component characteristics upon propagation via SWRL is described. The proposed approach is based on the idea of mapping MPs to an OWL representation in order to allow to execute semantic queries against MP data to improve their integration into the RV process. The resulting ontology-supported application framework has been applied to an industrial use-case from automotive power electronics. A generalization of the approach is described and demonstrated by applying it to stress test selection within the AEC Q100 standard. We present experimental results showing that the RV process can be significantly improved in terms of reduced design time and increased exhaustiveness by automating the analyses selection step and the provisioning of all the relevant data to be used.
