Tecniche parallele di machine learning applicate a container

L’obiettivo di questa tesi `e l’estensione della conoscenza di un argomento già ampliamente conosciuto e ricercato. Questo lavoro focalizza la propria attenzione su una nicchia dell’ampio mondo della virtualizzazione, del machine learning e delle tecniche di apprendimento parallelo. Nella prima parte verranno spiegati alcuni concetti teorici chiave per la virtualizzazione, ponendo una maggior attenzione verso argomenti di maggior importanza per questo lavoro. La seconda parte si propone di illustrare, in modo teorico, le tecniche usate nelle fasi di training di reti neurali. La terza parte, attraverso una parte progettuale, analizza le diverse tecniche individuate applicandole ad un ambiente containerizzato.

Applicazione ROS 2 di un robot antropomorfo in esecuzione su container VxWorks in architettura IMA

L’elaborato di tesi discute del progetto di integrazione tra ROS 2, framework open-source per lo sviluppo di applicazioni robotiche, e VxWorks, sistema operativo in tempo reale (RTOS), attraverso l’utilizzo di container OCI compliant su VxWorks. L’integrazione è stata svolta all’interno dello stack software di IMA (Industria Macchine Automatiche). Il progetto ha dunque integrato ROS 2 Humble e VxWorks 7 permettendo l’utilizzo di costrutti software di ROS 2 su dei container in esecuzione a livello User su VxWorks. Successivamente è stata creata una applicazione di pick and place con un robot antropomorfo (Universal Robots Ur5e) avvalendosi di ROS 2 Control, framework per l’introduzione e gestione di hardware e controllori, e MoveIt 2, framework per incorporare algoritmi di motion-planning, cinematica, controllo e navigazione. Una volta progettata l’applicazione, il sistema è stato integrato all’interno dell’architettura di controllo di IMA. L’architettura a container VxWorks di IMA è stata estesa per il caso ROS 2, la comunicazione tra campo e applicazione ROS 2 è passata tramite il master EtherCAT e il modulo WebServer presenti nell’architettura IMA. Una volta eseguito il container ROS 2 posizione e velocità dei servo motori sono stati inviati tramite al WebServer di IMA sfruttando la comunicazione VLAN interna. Una volta ricevuto il messaggio, il WebServer si è occupato di trasferirlo al master EtherCAT che in aggiunta si è occupato anche di ottenere le informazioni sullo stato attuale del robot. L’intero progetto è stato sviluppato in prima battuta in ambiente di simulazione per validarne l’architettura. Successivamente si è passati all’installazione in ambiente embedded grazie all’ausilio di IPC sui quali è stato testato l’effettivo funzionamento dell’integrazione all’interno dell’architettura IMA.

Double-blind, crossover, placebo-controlled clinical trial with clobetasol propionate in desquamative gingivitis

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a 0.05% clobetasol propionate ointment administered in trays to 22 patients with desquamative gingivitis in a double-blind, crossover, placebo-controlled trial. Patients received container number 1 and were instructed to apply the ointment 3 times a day for 2 weeks, and to reduce the application to once a day in the third week. Next, the patients were then instructed to discontinue the treatment for 2 weeks, and were then given container 2, used in the same way and for the same length of time as container 1. Regarding signs, 17 patients presented some improvement, while 5 experienced worsening with clobetasol propionate. With the placebo, 14 patients presented some improvement, and 8 patients presented worsening. For symptoms, there was complete improvement in 2 patients, partial improvement in 12, no response in 7, and worsening in 1 with clobetasol propionate. With the placebo, there was partial improvement in 8 patients, no response in 12 and worsening in 2. No statistically significant difference was found between clobetasol and placebo (p>0.05). Within the period designed to treat the gingival lesions of the patients, clobetasol propionate did not significantly outperform the placebo.

Estimação da infestação predial por Aedes aegypti (Díptera: Culicidae) por meio da armadilha Adultrap

Foi utilizada a armadilha Adultrap em uma amostra de domicílio preconizada pelo levantamento de índice rápido de infestação por Aedes aegypti (LIRAa) para mensuração do número de adulto de Aedes aegypti no domicílio. Foi vistoriada uma média de 555 imóveis mês: 15 unidades continham criadouros da espécie; e 53, a presença de fêmeas. O índice de infestação para larva/pupa (IPL) variou de zero ao máximo de 4,9 por cento, enquanto o índice de infestação para adulto (IPA), de 2,21 a 17,32 por cento. O teste de MacNemar mostrou diferenças significativas entre a positividade de IPL e IPA em todos os meses do ano. Além disso, detectaram-se fêmeas de Ae. Aegypti em período de baixa densidade populacional, sem o caráter invasivo e incômodo da pesquisa de recipientes para o IPL. A Adultrap mostrou-se útil para revelar situações propícias à transmissão da dengue, bem como de fácil operacionalidade

Eucalyptus sp seedling response to potassium fertilization and soil water

A considerable portion of Brazil's commercial eucalypt plantations is located in areas Subjected to periods of water deficit and grown in soils with low natural fertility, particularly poor In potassium. Potassium is influential in controlling water relations of plants. The objective of this study was to verify the influence of potassium fertilization and soil water potential (psi(w)) oil the dry matter production and oil water relations Of eucalypt seedlings grown under greenhouse conditions. the experimental units were arranged in 4x4x2 randomized blocks factorial design, as follow: four species of Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus grandis, Eucalyptus urophylla, Eucalyptus camaldulensis and hybrid Eucalyptus grandis x Eucalyptus urophylla), four dosages of K (0, 50, 100 and 200 mg dm(-3)) and two soil water potentials (-0.01 M Pa and -0.1 M Pa). Plastic containers with 15 cm diameter and 18 cm height, with Styrofoam base, containing 3.0 dm(3) of soil and two plants per container were used. Soil water potential was kept at -0.01 MPa for 40 days after seeding. Afterward, the experimental units were divided into two groups: in one group the potential was kept at 0.01 MPa, and in the other one, at -0.10 MPa. Sol I water potential was control led gravimetrically twice a day with water replacement until the desired potential was reestablished. A week before harvesting, the leaf water potential (psi), the photosynthetic rate (A), the stomatal conductance (gs) and the transpiration rate were evaluated. The last week before harvesting, the mass of the containers was recorded daily before watering to determine the consumption of water by the plants. After harvesting, total dry matter and leaf area were evaluated. the data were Submitted to analysis of variance, to Tukey's tests and regression analyses. The application of K influenced A, gs and the transpiration rate. Plants deficient in K showed lower A and higher Us and transpiration rates. There were no statistical differences in A, gs and transpiration rates ill plants with and Without water deficit. The addition of K reduced the consumption of water per unit of leaf area and, in general, plants submitted to water deficit presented a lower consumption of water.

Low urinary 6-sulphatoxymelatonin concentrations in acute migraine

Substantial evidence points to melatonin as playing a role in the regulation of circadian rhythms, sleep, and headache disorders. The objective of the study was to assess 6-sulphatoxymelatonin (aMT6s) levels in a large consecutive series of patients with migraine, comparing with controls. A total of 220 subjects were evaluated-146 had migraine and 74 were control subjects. Urinary samples were collected into the same plastic container since 8:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. of the next day (12-h period) and aMT6s was measured with quantitative ELISA technique. Among patients with migraine, 53% presented pain on the day of the urine samples collection. Their urinary aMT6s concentration was significantly lower than in the urine of patients without pain [14.0 +/- 7.3 vs. 49.4 +/- 19.0; t(143) = -15.1; 95% CI = -40.0 to -30.8; P<0.001]. There was no significant difference in the aMT6s concentration of patients with migraine without pain on the day of their urine samples collection and controls [49.4 +/- 19.0 vs. 42.5 +/- 27.9; t(140) = 1.7; 95% CI = -1.2 to 14.8; P = 0.094]. To our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate reduction in melatonin levels during attacks in episodic and chronic migraine.

Simulated annealing applied to the irregular rotational placement of shapes over containers with fixed dimensions

This work deals with the problem of minimizing the waste of space that occurs on a rotational placement of a set of irregular two dimensional polygons inside a two dimensional container. This problem is approached with an heuristic based on simulated annealing. Traditional 14 external penalization"" techniques are avoided through the application of the no-fit polygon, that determinates the collision free area for each polygon before its placement. The simulated annealing controls: the rotation applied, the placement and the sequence of placement of the polygons. For each non placed polygon, a limited depth binary search is performed to find a scale factor that when applied to the polygon, would allow it to be fitted in the container. It is proposed a crystallization heuristic, in order to increase the number of accepted solutions. The bottom left and larger first deterministic heuristics were also studied. The proposed process is suited for non convex polygons and containers, the containers can have holes inside. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Placement over containers with fixed dimensions solved with adaptive neighborhood simulated annealing

This work deals with the problem of minimizing the waste of space that occurs on a rotational placement of a set of irregular bi-dimensional items inside a bi-dimensional container. This problem is approached with a heuristic based on Simulated Annealing (SA) with adaptive neighborhood. The objective function is evaluated in a constructive approach, where the items are placed sequentially. The placement is governed by three different types of parameters: sequence of placement, the rotation angle and the translation. The rotation applied and the translation of the polygon are cyclic continuous parameters, and the sequence of placement defines a combinatorial problem. This way, it is necessary to control cyclic continuous and discrete parameters. The approaches described in the literature deal with only type of parameter (sequence of placement or translation). In the proposed SA algorithm, the sensibility of each continuous parameter is evaluated at each iteration increasing the number of accepted solutions. The sensibility of each parameter is associated to its probability distribution in the definition of the next candidate.
