The authors show how the fusion of fuzzy systems with sliding-mode controllers can alleviate some of these problems and promote applicability.  Fuzzy systems used as soft switches eliminate high-frequency signal oscillations and can substantially lower the noise sensitivity of sliding-mode controllers. The amount of a priori knowledge required concerning the nominal structure and parameters of a nonlinear system is also shown to be much reduced by exploiting the general function-approximation property of fuzzy systems so as to use them as identifiers.   The main features of this book include:  •\ta review of various existing structures of sliding-mode fuzzy control;  •\ta guide to the fundamental mathematics of sliding-mode fuzzy controllers and their stability analysis;  •\tstate-of-the-art procedures for the design of a sliding-mode fuzzy controller;  •\tsource codes including MATLAB® and Simulink® codes illustrating the simulation of these controllers, particularly the adaptive controllers;  •\ta short bibliography for each chapter for readers interested in learning more on a particular subject; and  •\tillustrative examples and simulation results to support the main claims made in the text.  Academic researchers and graduate students interested in the control of nonlinear systems and particularly those working in sliding-mode controller design will find this book a valuable source of comparative information on existing controllers and ideas for the development of new ones.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49589019246865,"sku":"GOR013446982","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52351845466385,"sku":"NLS9783030691844","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3030691845.jpg?v=1751157840"},{"product_id":"solved-exercises-in-fractional-calculus-book-edmundo-capelas-de-oliveira-9783030205232","title":"Solved Exercises in Fractional Calculus","description":"This book contains a brief historical introduction and state of the art in fractional calculus.

In the 1970s, the developed countries saw the Fordist growth regime crumble in parallel with the growing awareness of the ecological issue. Since the first industrial revolutions, technological dynamics have been the cause of many environmental problems, and there is a consensus on the diagnosis. Integrated technologies reduce resource use and\/or pollution at source by using cleaner production methods. This generally leads to a reduction in the by-products, energy inputs and resources used by companies to produce goods.    Integrated production technologies reduce negative environmental impacts at source by substituting or modifying cleaner technologies. Examples of integrated, or cleaner, production technologies are the recirculation of materials, the use of environmentally friendly materials (such as the substitution of water for organic solvents), etc. However, the implementation of integrated production technologies is often hampered by obstacles related to cost, coordination and skill inertia problems and to the productive organisation of companies. In addition to the high investment costs of new integrated technologies, additional barriers may emerge depending on the nature of the environmental problem and the type of environmental regulation in question.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50329511493905,"sku":"NGR9783031557866","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3031557867.jpg?v=1751349812"},{"product_id":"embedded-platforms-for-uas-landing-path-and-obstacle-detection-ii-book-gennaro-ariante-9783031597534","title":"Embedded Platforms for UAS Landing Path and Obstacle Detection II","description":"This book reports on the design and development of a system that assists remote pilots during navigation.

This stability allows us to obtain diverse approximations depending on various special functions that are initially chosen and to evaluate maximal stability and minimal error which enable us to obtain a unique optimal solution of functional equations, inequalities, and fractional equations. Stability analysis in the sense of the Ulam and its different kinds has received considerable attention from the researchers. However, how to effectively generalize the Ulam stability problems and to evaluate optimized controllability and stability are new issues. The multi-stability not only covers the previous concepts but also considers the optimization of the problem and provides a comprehensive discussion of optimizing the different types of the Ulam stabilities of mathematical models used in the natural sciences and engineering disciplines with fuzzy attitudes. Besides, this book also deals with nonlinear differential equations with various boundary conditions or initial value problems, based on the matrix Mittag-Leffler function, fixed point theory, as well as Babenko's approach to study uniqueness and existence of solutions. In general, the benefits for the readers can be concluded as follows:  1. Evaluates maximal stability with minimal error to get a unique optimal solution.  2. Discusses an optimal method of the alternative to study existence, uniqueness, and different types of Ulam stabilities under special consideration of the fuzzy approaches.  3. Delves into the new study of boundary value problems of fractional integro-differential equations with integral boundary conditions and variable coefficients.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51060449509649,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51060452655377,"sku":"NIN9783031555633","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52502645670161,"sku":"NLS9783031555633","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3031555635.jpg?v=1751030872"},{"product_id":"credible-asset-allocation-optimal-transport-methods-and-related-topics-book-songsak-sriboonchitta-9783030972752","title":"Credible Asset Allocation, Optimal Transport Methods, and Related Topics","description":"This book describes state-of-the-art economic ideas and how these ideas can be (and are) used to make economic decision (in particular, to optimally allocate assets) and to gauge the results of different economic decisions (in particular, by using optimal transport methods).

This book provides an overview of recent work on mathematical formalisation and computational simulation of multilevel organisational learning by exploiting the possibilities of self-modeling network models to address it.         This is      the first book addressing mathematical formalisation and computational      modeling of multilevel organisational learning in a systematic, principled      manner.   A self-modeling network      modeling approach from AI and Network Science is used where in a reflective      manner some of the network nodes (called self-model nodes) represent parts      of the network’s own network structure characteristics.  This is supported by a      dedicated software environment allowing to design and implement      (higher-order) adaptive network models by specifying them in a conceptual      manner at a high level of abstraction in a standard table format, without      any need of algorithmic specification or programming.  This modeling approach      allows to model the development of knowledge in an organisational setting      in a neatly structured manner at three different levels for the usage,      adaptation and control, respectively, of the underlying mental models.   Several examples of      realistic cases of multilevel organisational learning are used to      illustrate the approach.   Crucial concepts such as      the aggregation of mental models to form shared mental models out of      individual mental models are addressed extensively.  It is shown how to model      context-sensitive control of organisational learning taking into account a      wide variety of context factors, for example relating to levels of      expertise of individuals or to leadership styles of managers involved.  Mathematical equilibrium      analysis of models of organisational learning is also addressed, among      others allowing verification of correctness of the implemental models in      comparison to their conceptual design.  Chapters      in this book also contribute to the Management and Business Sciences      research by demonstrating how computational modeling can be used to      capture complex management phenomena such as multilevel organizational      learning.    This      book has a potential implication for practice by demonstrating how      computational modeling can be used to capture learning scenarios, which      then provide a      basis for more informed managerial decisions.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51386658357521,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51386659406097,"sku":"NGR9783031287374","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3031287371.jpg?v=1751349718"},{"product_id":"machine-learning-for-econometrics-and-related-topics-book-vladik-kreinovich-9783031436000","title":"Machine Learning for Econometrics and Related Topics","description":"In the last decades, machine learning techniques – especially techniques of deep learning – led to numerous successes in many application areas, including economics.

Extant game theory recommends diverse strategies (plans of actions) for various given games, particularly those in Nash equilibria, in which no player benefits from one-sided strategy alteration. The literature also refers to the design of games that fit given goals. This is the mechanism design theory; its function is to serve social planners ignorant of the preferences of the people intended to play them.  Our study of games avoidance adds to game theory the meta-game of choosing what game to play and what game to avoid playing, and that both players and planners can generate. This comprises a shift from the maximalist position that aims to maximize possible profit to the minimalist one that aims at minimizing possible loss. This shift depends on the question, considering the public interest, what set of games is it advisable to encourage? Obviously, it is advisable to encourage playing some groups of games such as trade, as well as to discourage playing other groups of games such as wars. This shift makes the theory much more applicable to social science: usually, choosing what game to play is less practical than choosing what game not to play. This invites legislation and similar incentives; their study should aim at the improvement of their usefulness.  Discussing the possibility of changing both game and strategy renders game theory part-and-parcel of social science. For this mathematical models will not do: it requires a clear distinction between describing options and explaining situations. Explanations may enhance efforts at improvement.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51607954161937,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51607954358545,"sku":"NGR9783031276033","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3031276035.jpg?v=1750838070"},{"product_id":"preferential-voting-and-applications-approaches-based-on-data-envelopment-analys-book-mehdi-soltanifar-9783031304057","title":"Preferential Voting and Applications: Approaches Based on Data Envelopment Analysis","description":"This book presents the theory and application of the models presented in this regard and establishes a meaningful relationship between data envelopment analysis and multi-attribute decision making. The issue of \"choice\" using the aggregation of voters' votes is one of the most important group decision-making issues that are always considered by decision makers in electoral systems. Voting is a method of group decision making in a democratic society that expresses the will of the majority. Voting is perhaps the simplest way to gather the opinions of experts, and this ease of application has made it a multi-attribute decision-making method in group decisions. Preferential voting is a type of voting that may refer to electoral systems or groups of the electoral system. In preferential voting, voters vote for multiple candidates, and how the candidates are arranged on the ballot is important. Researchers have made many efforts to provide models of voter aggregation, and one of the bestresults of these efforts is the aggregation of votes based on the policy of data envelopment analysis. Thus, in group decisions, the opinions of experts are obtained in a simple structure and consolidated in an interactive and logical structure, and the results can be a powerful tool for decision support.  This book provides a complete set of voting models based on data envelopment analysis and expressing its various applications in industry and society. However, most decision-making methods do not use the opinions of experts or reduce the motivation of experts to participate in complex interactions and time, while voting methods do not have this shortcoming.  This book is suitable for graduate students in the fields of industrial management, business management, industrial engineering, applied mathematics, and economics. It can also be a good source for researchers in decision science, decision support systems, data envelopment analysis, supply chain management, healthcare management, and others.

Its main focus is on numerical aspects of computation of the expectation and covariance in Kalman-like filters rather than on statistical properties determining a model of the system state. Nevertheless, it provides the sound theoretical background and covers all contemporary state estimation techniques beginning at the celebrated Kalman filter, including its versions extended to nonlinear stochastic models, and till the most advanced universal Gaussian filters with deterministically sampled mean and covariance. In particular, the authors demonstrate that, when applying such filtering procedures to stochastic models with strong nonlinearities, the use of adaptive ordinary differential equation solvers with automatic local and global error control facilities allows the discretization error—and consequently the state estimation error—to be reduced considerably. For achieving that, the variable-stepsize methods with automatic error regulation and stepsize selection mechanisms are applied to treating moment differential equations arisen. The implemented discretization error reduction makes the self-adaptive nonlinear Gaussian filtering algorithms more suitable for application and leads to the novel notion of accurate state estimation.         The book also discusses accurate state estimation in mathematical models with sparse measurements. Of special interest in this regard, it provides a means for treating stiff stochastic systems, which often encountered in applied science and engineering, being exemplified by the Van der Pol oscillator in electrical engineering and the Oregonator model of chemical kinetics. Square-root implementations of all Kalman-like filters considered and explored in this book for state estimation in Ill-conditioned continuous–discrete stochastic systems attract the authors’ particular attention.         This book covers both theoretical and applied aspects of numerical integration methods, including the concepts of approximation, convergence, stiffness as well as of local and global errors, suitably for applied scientists and engineers. Such methods serve as a basis for the development of accurate continuous–discrete extended, unscented, cubature and many other Kalman filtering algorithms, including the universal Gaussian methods with deterministically sampled expectation and covariance as well as their mixed-type versions. The state estimation procedures in this book are presented in the fashion of complete pseudo-codes, which are ready for implementation and use in MATLAB® or in any other computation platform. These are examined numerically and shown to outperform traditional variants of the Kalman-like filters in practical prediction\/filtering tasks, including state estimations of stiff and\/or ill-conditioned continuous–discrete nonlinear stochastic systems.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51680311017745,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51680311214353,"sku":"NIN9783031613708","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52152174084369,"sku":"NGR9783031613708","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3031613708.jpg?v=1770285507"},{"product_id":"using-shared-mental-models-and-organisational-learning-to-support-safety-and-sec-book-peter-hmp-roelofsma-9783031720741","title":"Using Shared Mental Models and Organisational Learning to Support Safety and Security Through Cyberspace: A Computational Analysis Approach","description":"Ensuring patient safety and security through cyberspace requires that all care professionals operate as a team and community . In order to be successful, it is of paramount importance that all members of the team have a shared understanding of the diagnosis, the condition of the patient, the secure use of medical devices and the plan of action. At present, to ensure that all mem bers have this 'shared mental model', members communicate and observe each other's actions. Based upon this information, members sho uld be able to confirm if indeed all have a shared mental model and speak up when deviations in one or more members and\/or processes are suspected. From a group dynamical and information processing perspective, this verification process is known to be very vulnerable: how can red flags be detected in complicated surgery settings and do members feel psychologically safe enough to speak up when they have concerns about being on the same page as the rest of their team? This book presents a new approach for saf ety and security through cyberspace through introducing a concept of co designed clinical pathways supported by the AI coach. The AI coach will be an intervention for both improving hospital wide safety and security through cyberspace.

The underlying assumption of the research path taken is that unmanned systems exhibiting attributes of autonomy, autonomous functionality, and resilience have to be considered as technically engineered systems. Hence, validation, verification, certification, and acceptance testing have to be provided together with the product \"robot capable of fulfilling a specific requirement.\" The key is to provide a mathematically sound “metric” to evaluate autonomy, autonomous functionality, and resilience, directly applicable to real complex engineering systems. This overarching approach, presented as a lecture script, is reaching out to provide an ethically aligned view on engineering, specifically aiming to support human's free will.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51680472760593,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51680473022737,"sku":"NIN9783031787393","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52152460837137,"sku":"NGR9783031787393","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3031787390.jpg?v=1770372887"},{"product_id":"statistical-diagnostics-of-electric-power-equipment-book-vitalii-babak-9783031762529","title":"Statistical Diagnostics of Electric Power Equipment","description":"This book considers the issues of constructing mathematical probabilistic models of diagnostic signals, the development of statistical methods of their analysis in order to make diagnostic decisions and, finally, the technical implementation of the proposed diagnostic methods. Following the concept of primacy of the mathematical model of the diagnostic signal, the authors considered it expedient to consider first of all the questions connected with the theory of random processes possessing infinitely divisible distribution laws, linear and linear periodic random processes. Considerable attention is paid to the issues of simulation modeling of diagnostic signals and their statistical evaluation. Modern element base and new information technologies allowed to develop, build and practically test a number of experimental samples of information-measuring systems of statistical diagnostics of electric power engineering objects. Among these IMS, the systems are realized by means of unmanned diagnostic complexes, and also IMS of vibrodiagnostics of moving units of electric machines represents an important role. A large amount of experimental research has shown the operability and efficiency of the built IMS samples. Particular attention is paid to the selection of diagnostic spaces, formation of training sets, construction of solving rules for diagnosis and classification of EE defects. The authors do not pretend to a comprehensive consideration of the issues of EE diagnostics using statistical methods and IMS realized on their basis. At the same time, the results of researches, stated in this monograph, were a natural continuation of the subject of application of statistical methods in the field of control, monitoring and diagnostics for objects of electric power industry.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51717795414289,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51717796004113,"sku":"NGR9783031762529","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3031762525.jpg?v=1770285868"},{"product_id":"advanced-system-development-technologies-ii-book-mykhailo-bezuglyi-9783031820342","title":"Advanced System Development Technologies II","description":"This book is the second in the series Advanced System Development Technologies: Studies in Systems, Decision and Control. As in the previous volume, the sections of the book are grouped into three directions: optoelectronic technologies, medical technologies, and technological support.    The prerequisites for solving the problem of increasing the efficiency of mechanical assembly production are presented, based on the creation of a new method and system for technological preparation of small-scale production in instrument engineering, which takes into account the dominant influence of assembly processes on the time and cost of instrument manufacturing. A new structure and sequence for the technological preparation of instrument production with a formalized relationship between machining and assembly production are proposed. A new model of an assembled product in instrument engineering has been developed, taking into account the labor intensity and specifics of assembly, adjustment, and control-measurement operations, as well as methods for automated design of technological assembly processes. Additionally, a functional model for forming the product structure based on the labor intensity of manufacturing assembly units is proposed, allowing for the formulation of a substantiated plan for the production of parts. A mathematical model of the assembly sequence has also been developed, enabling the construction of an assembly sequence considering organizational and technical factors.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51717807636753,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51717808029969,"sku":"NGR9783031820342","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3031820347.jpg?v=1751317629"},{"product_id":"information-measuring-systems-book-vitalii-babak-9783031894053","title":"Information-Measuring Systems","description":"This book concentrates on virtual IMS with the use of modern information and measurement modeling technologies. Modern IMS can be implemented as: real hardware and software measuring tools; virtual IMS with the use of modern information and measurement modeling technologies, including simulation, mathematical, physical, with extensive use of computer equipment for conducting a simulation measurement experiment. Compared to real ones, virtual IMS has a number of advantages, and their implementation requires less time, production, and financial costs. However, in a number of cases, due to the information uncertainty of the object of measurement, such IMS cannot provide objective and reliable results, and therefore, it is necessary to conduct a full-scale measurement experiment using real systems. The potential capabilities of modern systems at the stage of information development of society have increased significantly, which contributes both to the expansion of the subject areas of their application and their use to increase the efficiency of known and solve new scientific and applied measurement tasks. The authors are in solidarity with other colleagues—specialists in measurements—in the forecasts of the development of IMS. No improvements in measurement information technologies, including computer and intellectual ones, have not led, are not leading, and obviously cannot lead in future to the expansion of the nomenclature of measurements of quantities while there are no corresponding sensors that form primary information during their direct interaction with the research object. Further development of IMS and their use in various fields of science and technology, including quantum metrology and nanotechnology, will largely be determined by the development of new principles of operation and the creation of new types of sensors based on them.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51717809307921,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51717809864977,"sku":"NGR9783031894053","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3031894057.jpg?v=1750966921"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/studies-in-systems-decision-and-control-book-series.oembed?page=6","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
