Abstract: The static gravimetric method, along with different saturated salt solutions, was used in a range of water activity (aw) of 0.11–0.88, and at 288.15, 298.15 y 308.15 K, to obtain sorption isotherms of freeze-dried pulp of mango. At a given aw the results show that the moisture content decreases with increasing temperature. BET, G.A.B, Halsey, Henderson, Oswin and Smith were evaluated to determine the best fit for the experimental data. A nonlinear regression–analysis method was used to evaluate the constants of equations. The BET and GAB models were the most suitable to described the sorption curves; the monolayer-content values for the sorption at different temperatures are calculated. The isosteric sorption heat was determines for adsorption of freeze-dried pulp of mango using the relevant thermodynamic relations (i.e., Clausius Clapeyron equation).

Abstract: In this paper we present a new network reliability measure that is particularly useful to evaluate performance objectives of wireless sensor networks. A communication network can be modeled as directed graph G = (V, E), composed of a set of nodes V, and a set of directed links E. Given that the links of the network underlying graph fail independently with known probabilities (nodes are perfectly reliable), and given a set K of terminal nodes (or participating nodes) and a distinguished terminal node s of K, the K-terminal-to-sink reliability measure, RK,s(G), is the probability of the event that the surviving links span a sub-digraph of G such that for each node u of K, there exists an operational directed path from u to s. In this paper we study a combinatorial property of graphs called the domination invariant which has been applied to efficiently compute the reliability of communication networks. Moreover we model wireless networks as random digraphs using curre!
nt results in Information Theory and we discuss how the K-terminal-to-sink reliability could be applied to tackle several optimization as well as design problems in sensor networks.

Abstract: The objective of this paper is to design a heart arrhythmias diagnosis instrument that has very low complicated computations. Therefore, a ECG classifier system based on discreet wavelet (DW) transformation and multi layer Perceptron neural network is presented. There is a new Idea in this paper in which signal is pre-processed in order to omit its noises firstly, then, using DW, 6db of signal is divided into eight levels and the minimum, maximum, variance and standard deviation of the signal are obtained. In addition, time features of the signal are obtained. Then combining time features with discrete wavelet output features an array of them are made to be used as final features in order to teach and test a 3-layer MLP neural network. Finally, using 255 heart signal samples existed in MIT-BIH data base, designed Classifier is taught and tested and in its best performance accuracy of 98% percentage have been obtained for three different heart arrhythmias of ECG sig!
nals include; RBBB,LBBB and normal heart rhythm.

Abstract: It was determined carbon sequestration rate, total nitrogen content and several important physicochemical parameters (electrical conductivity, gravimetric moisture, salinity, pH and soil texture) in mangrove forest soil located within the natural protected area named "Términos Lagoon" in Carmen Island, Campeche-México. Six sampling zones were considered within a mangrove forest located in the Botanical Garden of the Autonomous University of Carmen City. Samplings were carried out from February to August during 2009 considering three climatic periods ("Norths" season, dry season and rainy season). The electrical conductivity was within the range of 1.38 to 26.2 dS m-1 and the highest values were found during the rainy season when the study sites were flooded most of the time. The seasonal influence on carbon storage was evident (from 1.2 to 22.2 kg C / m-2), with the highest rate of carbon sequestration in the dry season, in flooded soils with greater predominanc!
e of red mangrove, and is lower in those soils rarely flooded with a higher prevalence of buttonwood mangrove individuals. The organic matter content and organic carbon was greater at 30 cm depth for flooded areas, where long periods of flood tides and low rates of decomposition maintain anoxic conditions. Due to soils are sandy in the study areas and have high pH values with red mangrove associations, we can suggests that they have a high potential for carbon sequestration and it could be increased in future years.

Abstract: The Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) is applied to various signal and image processing applications. However the computation is computational expense. Therefore plenty of approaches have been proposed to accelerate the computation. Graphics processing units (GPUs) can be used as stream processor to speed up the calculation of the DWT. In this paper, we present a implementation of the translation-invariant wavelet transform using consumer level graphics hardware. As our approach was motivated by infrared image processing our implementation focuses on gray-level images, but can be also used in color image processing applications. Our experiments show, that the computation performance of the DWT could be significantly improved. However, initialisation and data transfer times are still a problem of GPU implementations. They could dramatically reduce the achievable performance, if they cannot be hided by the application. This effect was also observed integrating our imp!
lementation in wavelet-based edge detection and wavelet denoising.

Abstract: In automotive applications large-scale nonlinear dynamical models are utilized for hardware-in-the-loop simulations and model-based controller design. A projection-based order reduction of these models, on the one hand, yields substantial advantages in computational speed and on the other hand, simplifies the controller design procedure. In this work a mathematical-empirical approach is chosen for the order reduction of a real-time diesel engine model. It is based on recorded time-snapshots for typical system excitations. Flat and nonlinear Galerkin approximations are obtained by projection onto a lower-dimensional sub-space. In the nonlinear Galerkin approach a novel scheme for the reconstruction of the omitted states is introduced. It makes use of the local model parameters in the local Jacobian matrix, obtained from a linearization of the complete nonlinear model for various points of a local model network. The results from the application of the reduction meth!
ods to the engine model are presented and discussed for different reduced model orders and the benefits of the iteration scheme are demonstrated.

Abstract: The restriction on the Euclidian edge length is an important consideration in the study of geographical network modeling. We herein investigate a network model developed in a one-dimensional (1-D) lattice, in which the restriction on the Euclidian edge length is a result of dynamical processes on the network, the prosperity of random transports represented by a random walker, and the ageing of edges. Based on numerical calculations, we show that the time evolution of the distribution of the edge length is subject to the 1-D heat conduction equation with a radiation term. According to this equation, the typical equilibrium length of edges is determined by a balance between the diffusion rate and the decrease rate of the edge length density. We can relate these rates to a model parameter that adjusts the aging of edges by comparing the solution of the equation with numerical results. The calculation of the mean shortest path length and the sum of the edge length alon!
g the shortest paths shows that the model assumption provides a large traffic capacity on the network and an automatic mechanism causes a natural extinction of the unapproachable area for the walker with the consequent removal of circuitous routes with long edges. The calculation of the clustering coefficient also reveals that the local clustering strength on each vertex is stabilized for a certain value, regardless of the vertex degree. These global and local properties of resulting networks emerge spontaneously from random events in the network, the movement of the random walker, and the aging of edges.

Abstract: Using an experimental platform for research of combustion process in small-scale biomass boilers using pellets, authors present some results from investigation focused on improvements of boiler's operation, which can be achieved with a control system innovation based on a PAC. Presented results include reduction of the size in emission peaks that occur as a consequence of the grate movement process that has not been adapted to the topical load. This instrumentation replacement allowed implementing a PI control algorithm that has replaced the originally installed on-off controller. The newly proposed PI controller opens new way to additional control function that can bring enhancing features to the control system. From these features, in the paper it is discussed detection of the controlled variable discredibility or a search for an efficiency or emission optimum simultaneously carried out with the main control function. Results of experiments with original and newl!
y designed control solutions are discussed showing important reduction of the fuel consumption and stability of the combustion process.

Abstract: A new type of vibration sensor based on flat coil element has been made. This paper describes the development of vibration sensor based on flat coil element that has low manufacturing cost and high sensitivity. In this research, the flat coil element is used to measure the position of a vibrating object as a function of time. Its working principle is based on position change of a seismic mass that put in front of a flat coil element. The flat coil is a part of a LC oscillator; therefore the change of seismic mass position will change its resonance frequency. A sensor model based on mathematical approach for determining frequency and amplitude of the sensor has been developed. The model shows a good result with relative error under 3%.

Abstract: The problem of Image Compression is to reduce memory storage which is the need of the hour as images are very bulk and require more storage and difficult to transmit.This paper presents an adaptive lifting scheme with Particle swarm Optimization technique and SPECK Coder for image compression. Particle swarm Optimization technique (PSO) is used to improve the accuracy of the prediction function used in the lifting scheme. The objective of this paper is to develop an efficient compression scheme and to obtain better quality and higher compression ratio using lifting schemes with Set Partitioned Embedded block algorithm (SPECK coder ). This scheme is applied in Image compression and parameters such as PSNR,Compression Ratio and the visual quality of the image is calculated .The proposed scheme performs better with PSNR, CR and Visual quality when compared with traditional methods (GA). In this paper we propose a method to optimize the prediction functio!
n used in the lifting scheme using Particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) and encoded using SPECK ALGORITHM for image compression. The SPECK Algorithm performs better than SPIHT ALGORITHM. The advantages of the PSO are, very few parameters to deal with and the large number of processing elements, so called dimensions, which enable to fly around the solution space effectively. On the other hand, it converges to a solution very quickly which should be carefully dealt with when using it for combinatonial optimization problems.

Abstract: The extractive industry is unanimously acknowledged as being a vital sector of any country which owns workable natural resources. The experts claim that this industry is a source of foreign income, of direct foreign investments and it is also the main and sometimes the only energy provider of a country. The activities carried out within the extractive industry of any country provide employment to population and contribute to the public budget by taxes and dues, while the incomes resulted from these activities can be directed towards charity; however, at the same time, there is a certain environmental risk related to each initiative that is being carried out in this industry.Given that ecological research has begun to study environmental phenomena and interpret data and information on economic and social relations taking into account environmental restrictions, as to draw conclusions about the effects that such restrictions have on economic and social life, this pap!
er intends to determine the extent to which costs provide maximum benefits for quality of life in general and human in particular.

Abstract: A cracks growth in metallurgical installations refractory linings under thermal shock was investigated with mathematical modeling methods. As an example a standard periclasse – chromite refractory lining of DH-degasser was taken. Two types of thermal shock were considered – during heating and cooling of the lining. Thermal stress while preheating process was also calculated. A dynamic heat field was an initial data for thermal stress calculating. A finite elements method was choused for all calculations. The size of lining damages was calculated with method of «heat displacement». The moments of crack appearance were determinate with 3-dimentional stress field modeling. The calculating results are in good correspondence with real damage sizes, measured after finish of installation usage.

Abstract: This paper presents a new method to synchronize chaos in nonlinear systems. This new method is called Generalized Backstepping Method (GBM) because of its similarity to Backstepping Method (BM), but its more abilities to control nonlinear systems than it; such as wide range of controllable systems, better settling time, lower overshoot and etc. In paper chaos in Lorenz equations is selected as case study. This method has some coefficient that positively is only condition to select them. In papers this parameters are chosen optionally but optimal selection of this parameters help to receive best response of systems. In this study Genetic Algorithm (GA) is chosen to optimize these parameters. GA select best values for them by minimizing fitness function that defined to minimize error function. The results of simulations prove more abilities of GBM than many methods to decrease error.

Abstract: The redox cycle of iron oxides which can be applied as a new method of storage and supply of hydrogen were studied. The iron oxides were prepared by precipitation of aqueous ferric nitrate. The addition of aluminium oxide into iron oxides prevented the sintering of metal iron and/or iron oxides during repeated redox cycles. The optimal calcination temperature for cylindrical pellets preparation was found to be 850 deg. C. Transport parameters for Fe2O3/Al2O3 and Fe/Al2O3 samples, which can be utilized for optimization of porous structure for hydrogen storage, were determined by the chromatographic technique in the single pellet-string arrangement.

Abstract: Being the first step of production cutting has a vital role in garment industry. It can be done according to the "marker making picture" which is prepared in the frame of "calculations of fabric lay quantities". So, time of cutting is measure by the size number in the marker making picture, part count, and marker making length. What would be ideal for the production efficiency in cutting houses is to cut down on the length of a marker making and raise the count of the fabric layers. However, the cutting speed preferred high for the same fabric kind would remain slower than lower layer count ones. That's why; to be able to estimate the cutting time is very important to decide which "calculations of fabric lay quantities" is ideal in terms of time and labour resources. Because, predicting the cutting time in an optimum level will have an effect on the production efficiency and daily production capacity. In this work, artificial neural network is proposed to handle !
to estimating the marker making cutting time .With the help of ANN method, the data which is gathered about various marker making lengths and cutting times (fabric layer count, blade speed, size number in one layer, marker making length, cutting time) can be applied to the system. Previously high numbered orders were talked about; however; nowadays variety is increased and numbers of orders are decreased accordingly. To satisfy the customer; time estimations gained an important role.

Abstract: Vibrations of elastic plate strips supported at two opposite edges and free at the other edges are studied. It is assumed that the thickness of the strip is piece wise constant whereas stable part-through cracks are located at the re-entrant corners of steps. Making use of the basic concepts of the fracture mechanics a method for determination of eigenfrequencies of stepped plates with cracks is developed. The influence of a crack on the behavior of the strip is modeled as a change of the local flexibility or as a distributed line spring. Numerical results are presented for strips with cracks and without any crack subjected to the tension applied at an edge of the strip.

Abstract: The pole-zero analysis is generally known to be very sensitive to the numerical precision of the computer arithmetics. In the paper, various methods are suggested for solving that problem. First, an optimal pivoting strategy of the algorithm that reduces the general eigenvalue problem to the standard one is presented for both full- and sparse-matrix procedures. The algorithm increases the precision of the semisymbolic analysis, especially for the large-scale radio-frequency circuits. A novel technique is also incorporated recognizing multiple poles or zeros, which are often computed inaccurately by standard algorithms. A new type of this procedure called secondary root polishing is described in the paper. The accuracy is furthermore increased using longer numerical data. First, the long double precision is utilized. Further, a novel application of a suitable multiple-precision arithmetic library is suggested. Finally, using the longer numerical data to eliminate po!
ssible imprecision of the multiple eigenvalues is evaluated. The algorithm is demonstrated in both low- and high-frequency domains. In the low-frequency domain, necessity of using the longer numerical data is demonstrated by a power operational amplifier with poles and zeros located in both hertz and gigahertz ranges, which are often computed inaccurately by the standard algorithms. In the high-frequency domain, the algorithm is demonstrated by estimating the frequency of a distributed microwave oscillator, and by estimating the bandwidth of a distributed microwave amplifier.

Abstract: A new model of the active network element controlled by neural networks has been designed. They are described the Virtual Output Queuing Manager (VOQM) blocks in this paper. They manage and group together virtual output queues. The number of queues in each block depends on the number of ports. Each VOQM has been set a unique input port number which it serves and which is used for packet addressing. The settings are made using the graphical dialog, where you can assign the already mentioned port number, the maximum number of saved packages and their maximum length.

Abstract: This paper presents parameters estimation of EVA (EVA â€" German abbreviation for Erzeugung, Verteilung and Aufteilung meaning Production, Distribution, and Mode Choice) mode choice model of city of Ljubljana, Slovenia by using genetic algorithms software. First we present design of stated preference survey, then we briefly review EVA mode choice model, present different types of utility functions, Maximum likelihood method as the estimation method and application of genetic algorithms software. Probabilities of choosing each of four considered modes (private car, public transport, bike, walking) can be calculated by using estimated mode choice model parameters. A practical example of mode choice probabilities for an actual trip is shown at the end. Final log-likelihood enables comparison among different types of utility functions. Results show that absolute differences in final log-likelihood among most types of utility functions are not high in spite of differenc!
es in function shapes, which implies that different functions may best describe different variables. Log-likelihood function for most utility function types by using standard optimization tool only convergated to local maximum, what clearly states the need to use genetic algorithms software to find the best solution.

Abstract: Rapid development of a global economy underlines an increasing importance of competitiveness. The phenomenon of competition is involved in all spheres of our life. It appears between the countries or economies in a global context, companies contesting markets, and between people competing with one another. It is characterized by many layers. Competitiveness constitutes an indispensible element of the very complex and multi-dimensional phenomenon of clusters. This paper presents the phenomenon of clusters from the Polish perspective. It characterizes the background for clusters growth in Poland, their current stage of development and the existing cluster-based policy. Based on the examined group of Polish clusters, vital characteristics regarding clusters' structure, activities, management and financing are being distinguished and depicted. In addition to that, pinpointing the best practices implemented and at the same time, confronting the problems which came acros!
s, allows determining the existing conditions in Poland and putting more attention to the features which have to be improved in order to enable successful cluster development in the future.

Abstract: In a mechanical system, the acting mechanical power is the most important quantity of rotating shaft of machines. There are many methods to measure it such as measuring the torque directly on the rotating shaft and measuring the rotational speed. Also there are many widely used measuring methods and more or less standardized instruments for measuring the rotational speed. A digital hand tachometer was chosen for measuring speed. The torque measurement is more complicate than the speed measurement. It needs a special solution in every occasion. It must be built onto the machine's shaft. This is because the high accuracy, a relatively simple application and the high dynamical behavior, the strain gauge sensor will be chosen for measuring the torque on the rotating shaft. During the design, the shaft was adapted for application of "V shape" strain gauge, to the shaft's end a HBM made slip-ring assembly was connected the rotating shaft with the standing cable and the S!
pider8 measurement electronics. The HBM CATMAN-Express software was used during the calibration and the tests. The calibration was carried out with 0.5 m long lever and dead weights in 0.5 kg steps up to 4.5 kg.

Authors as they appear in the Paper: JALAL KARAM
Email addresses of all the authors: jkaram@alfaisal.edu
Number of paper pages: 10
Abstract: In the last decade, Daubechies wavelets have been successfully used in many signal processing paradigms. The construction of these wavelets via two channel perfect reconstruction filter bank requires the identification of necessary conditions that the coefficients of the filters and the roots of binomial polynomials associated with it should exhibit. In this paper, orthogonal and Biorthogonal Daubechies families of wavelets are considered and their filters are derived. In particular, the Biorthogonal wavelets $Bior3.5$, $Bior3.9$ and $Bior6.8$ are examined and the zeros distribution of their polynomials associated filters are located. We also examine the locations of these zeros of the filters associated with the two orthogonal wavelets $db6$ and $db8$.

Title of the Paper: Biorthoganal Wavelet Packets and Mel Scale Analysis for Automatic Recognition of Arabic Speech via Radial Basis Functions
Authors as they appear in the Paper: JALAL KARAM
Email addresses of all the authors: jkaram@alfaisal.edu
Number of paper pages: 12
Abstract: In this paper, a Neural Network (NN) approach for the recognition of the Arabic digits is presented. The two phases of training and testing in a Radial Basis Functions (RBF) type network is described. Biorthogonal Wavelets are constructed and used for analysis of generated subwords of the digits. This approach decomposes spoken Arabic digits based on the acoustical information contained within the speech signals. The procedure locates the boundaries between subwords by finding the peaks in the function representing the spectral changes between consecutive speech frames. The Frame-based energy parameters derived from a Wavelet Packet Scale (WPS) are used in deriving the Spectral Variation Function (SVF). Three Biorthogonal wavelets are used as analyzing functions and their performances are compared with that of their Orthogonal counterpart and with that of the traditional Fourier based Mel scale approach.
Keywords: Biorthogonal Wavelets, Radial Basis Functions, Recohnizing Arabic Speech.

Abstract: In this paper we describe a method designed for filtering the information available on job portals, according to users' preferences. We started by collecting the information needed crawling the specialized web sites, in order to build the necessary dataset. Testing two classification algorithms (Naïve Bayes and J48) we found that the second obtained higher performances, thus we concluded to be a good candidate for this type of classification and suggested possible applications for users of such web sites.

Abstract: Phytoremediation belongs to relatively modern and frequently used methods of possible treatment of environmental problems (mainly caused by human activities). It consists in mitigating pollutant concentrations in contaminated soils with plants, which are able to accumulate or eliminate metals and various other contaminants. Nevertheless, the fundamental principles of this technique, i.e., transport of pollutants from soils into the plant cells have not been elucidated. These processes can be studied using model solutions of cadmium, lead and oxalic acid and the conditions in the rhizosphere can be studied within the artificially prepared phospholipid bilayer membrane on polycarbonate support. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is used to monitor the formation and stability of phospholipid membrane, whereas voltammetric methods can detect species, which are transferred across the membrane.

Title of the Paper: Transport of heavy metals across the supported phospholipid bilayers

Abstract: As it has been reported in many scientific as well as popular papers, TV, newspapers etc., practically all parts of environment (air, waters, and soils, plants, animals, etc.) have been in increased levels contaminated with various metals, inorganic or organic compounds and species. This effect can be explained as result of human activities in many cases. In combination with pollutions brought about by natural events (volcano eruptions, forest fires, etc.), the human being is fundamentally affected in this respect. To start their negative (or positive) role in plants or in human body, the elements, the compounds and the other species, which are present in polluted environment, must be transported into these organisms, more precisely, into their cells. In other words, each pollution particle, which takes part further in metabolic processes, must be transported across the cell membranes. Similar processes are realized in the opposite way – out of the cells as well as!
in and out of any sub cellular structure. Detail elucidation of transport mechanisms is prerequisite for understanding of distribution of pollutants in real cells of more complex organisms (leaves, roots or the whole plants, animals or men) and for their possible control in the future. Because the real bio-membranes and the transporting processes realized across them are very complicated, the model membranes have been used for elucidation of the basic transporting steps. This article deals with simulation, characterization, description, and elucidation of the above mentioned transport processes on the example of some heavy (hazardous) metals, i.e., of cadmium and of lead. Because cations of these metals do not exist only as separate ions, it is necessary to take into account their existence in complexes. Therefore the attention was paid to their complexes with low molecular weight organic acids (LMWOAs) and their transporting processes. This contribution summarizes the res!
ults achieved using supported phospholipid model membranes. The ion ch
annels, which are responsible for transport of some particles across the cell membranes, were replaced in the reported experiments by ionophores (valinomycin and calcimycin). The tested membranes and processes were characterized using electrochemical methods (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, anodic stripping voltammetry, conductometry, etc.) and optical spectroscopy. This manuscript presents new knowledge in this field, first part of which was presented one year ago at this conference.

Abstract: Image registration is currently used to refer the activity of make to coincide two or more observation of the same scene. This task is fundamental for several areas of image processing, such as: remote sensing, processing of medical images and video processing, among others. There are numerous publications addressing the image registration problem, from several points of view. It involves choosing one image as reference. The remaining images must be shift to match the one chosen as reference. Two images match between them whenever every region of the original scene is mapped on the same set of pixels in both images. The registration problem consists in finding the geometric transformation to accomplish the required modification of the image. Existing methods may be classified as: based on characteristics and based on areas. The first group of methods requires the intervention of an expert who chooses a set of distinctive points of the image, while the second group !
of methods automatically uses all pixels of the image. This does not take into account the fact that the information content of different pixels may be rather different. Pixels with low content of information degrade the contribution of the pixels with high information content. Information content is measured in relation with its contribution to define the geometric transformation. This paper details a method that automatically discards pixels with low content of information focusing the calculation on those with high information content.

Abstract: Today, logistic systems face increasing dynamics and complexity. Autonomous Control faces these challenges, by enabling logistic objects to render their own local decisions. To apply autonomous control to real world applications, it is necessary to model and test autonomous processes before implementing them. The Autonomous Logistic Engineering Methodology provides tools to develop autonomous processes. In order to support testing and validation of these models, the methodology is extended by a simulation component. This article presents a concept, to transform the process models into executable simulation models. This procedure uses concepts and techniques of the Model Driven Architecture. Furthermore, the article presents a procedure that supports in selecting suitable simulation platforms and in integrating them into the methodology's framework.

Title of the Paper: subtractive fuzzy c-means clustering approach with applications to fuzzy predictive control

Abstract: Abstract£º- To identify T-S models, this paper presents a so-called ¡°subtractive fuzzy C-means clustering¡± approach, in which the results of subtractive clustering are applied to initialize clustering centers and the number of rules in order to perform adaptive clustering. This method not only regulates the division of fuzzy inference system input and output space and determines the relative member function parameters, but also overcomes the impacts of initial values on clustering performance. Additionally, the orthogonal least square algorithm is employed to identify the parameters of consequents and linearize the systems over every sample time, ultimately resulting in the entire T-S fuzzy models. With this approach available, a fuzzy model predictive control system is established, along with corresponding control algorithms derived, as well as control system simulations carried out which explicitly demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Abstract: Today, unloading processes of standard container units are mainly executed manually. An automatic unloading system could automate this labor and time intensive process step. The crucial challenge in developing such a system is the object recognition of goods with undefined shape and size. The development and the successful market launch of the Paketroboter© has shown the feasibility of the correct detection of cubic goods inside a standard container unit. Nevertheless, there exists no established system that is able to unload universal packaged goods. The requirements for a suitable object recognition system for goods with undefined shapes are very high. In the case of an high error rate, the automatic unloading process has to be aborted or a manually intervention is necessary. This paper presents a concept that aims to develop an object recognition system for classification and pose detection of universal packaged goods inside a standard container unit. In order t!
o classify different packaged goods inside a less lighted container unit significant sensor data is required. On the basis of the sensor data, the object recognition system detects all goods and calculates suitable 3D gripping points for the manipulator unit. Therefore, range images from Time-of-Flight cameras and simulated images are used for image analysis.
