Regulación del proceso de secado de embutidos crudos-curados mediante la aplicación de lógica borrosa (fuzzy logic)

El presente proyecto tenía como objetivo final el desarrollo de un sistema de control basado en Lógica Fuzzy que permita que el proceso de secado tenga una regulación continua y con una menor dependencia de la experiencia del personal experto, evitando además la formación de encostrado. Asimismo, se plantearon una serie de objetivos parciales, cuya consecución permitiría, además de alcanzar el objetivo final descrito, obtener un conocimiento científico adicional. Por ello, a continuación se resumen los resultados en relación con los objetivos parciales propuestos. Como paso previo, antes de abordar los objetivos planteados se diseñó y construyó un equipo experimental de secado, donde se controló de forma precisa la temperatura, la humedad relativa y la velocidad del aire.

Chromosome numbers in the Triatominae (Hemiptera-Reduviidae): a review

The chromosome numbers of 46 out of the 122 currently recognized species of Triatominae (Hemiptera, Reduviidae) are summarized. We present the number of autosomes, the sex mechanism and the first reference for each karyotype.

Fuzzy set Theory and Quantum Chemistry

Es discuteixen breument algunes consideracions sobre l'aplicació de la Teoria delsConjunts difusos a la Química quàntica. Es demostra aqui que molts conceptes químics associats a la teoria són adequats per ésser connectats amb l'estructura dels Conjunts difusos. També s'explica com algunes descripcions teoriques dels observables quàntics espotencien tractant-les amb les eines associades als esmentats Conjunts difusos. La funciódensitat es pren com a exemple de l'ús de distribucions de possibilitat al mateix temps queles distribucions de probabilitat quàntiques

A Homogeneous Set-Theoretical Frame for Clustering Fuzzy Relational Data

Our purpose is to provide a set-theoretical frame to clustering fuzzy relational data basically based on cardinality of the fuzzy subsets that represent objects and their complementaries, without applying any crisp property. From this perspective we define a family of fuzzy similarity indexes which includes a set of fuzzy indexes introduced by Tolias et al, and we analyze under which conditions it is defined a fuzzy proximity relation. Following an original idea due to S. Miyamoto we evaluate the similarity between objects and features by means the same mathematical procedure. Joining these concepts and methods we establish an algorithm to clustering fuzzy relational data. Finally, we present an example to make clear all the process

Correlation of intra- and extraepidermal CD8 T cell numbers with development of psoriatic epidermal pathology

The development of psoriatic plaques is T cell dependent. Recently, Th17 CD4 T cells have been proposed to be the main effector cells. However, development of psoriasis is critically dependent on accumulation of epidermal T cells, among the majority express CD8. Here we show that numbers of epidermal CD8 T cells correlated with development of psoriasis in human biopsies, and that blockade of CD8 T cells by depleting antibodies inhibited development of psoriasis in the AGR xenotransplantation mouse model. In human dermis, both CD4 and CD8 T cell numbers correlated significantly with epidermal pathology, indicating a role for dermal CD4 T cells in orchestrating the development of psoriasiform changes induced by epidermis-infiltrating CD8 T cells.

Discovering similarities in the time use patterns of the Spanish Autonomous Communities by Fuzzy techniques

In 2000 the European Statistical Office published the guidelines for developing theHarmonized European Time Use Surveys system. Under such a unified framework,the first Time Use Survey of national scope was conducted in Spain during 2002–03. The aim of these surveys is to understand human behavior and the lifestyle ofpeople. Time allocation data are of compositional nature in origin, that is, they aresubject to non-negativity and constant-sum constraints. Thus, standard multivariatetechniques cannot be directly applied to analyze them. The goal of this work is toidentify homogeneous Spanish Autonomous Communities with regard to the typicalactivity pattern of their respective populations. To this end, fuzzy clustering approachis followed. Rather than the hard partitioning of classical clustering, where objects areallocated to only a single group, fuzzy method identify overlapping groups of objectsby allowing them to belong to more than one group. Concretely, the probabilistic fuzzyc-means algorithm is conveniently adapted to deal with the Spanish Time Use Surveymicrodata. As a result, a map distinguishing Autonomous Communities with similaractivity pattern is drawn.Key words: Time use data, Fuzzy clustering; FCM; simplex space; Aitchison distance
