Thus, the system may respond in different ways to identical experimental conditions which seems to contradict classical thermody-namics. While the phenomenon is known since about a century, it has not yet found a consistent theoretical description. In the pres-ent talk, we will-based on results of computer simulations-formulate rules that provide a consistent basis for the behavior of confined systems, or even for inhomogeneous systems in general. In other words, we present a new theory (confined thermodynamics) with its own definitions and rules. It will turn out, that hysteretic behavior does not impose a conceptual challenge any more, but follows in a natural way from these rules. The approach which is employed in the simulations is very akin to the density functional method. All quantities defined develop into the standard thermodynamic expressions when the density of amount becomes homogeneous.The second part of the talk is devoted to the potential for practical use. It turns out that the new theory does not only remove conceptual problems, but at the same time opens the route to a number of new states found in porous systems which may lead to im-proved applications. In particular we will focus on the possibility to drive a fluid in a pore into exotic states with negative pressure, provided one has full control over the phenomenon of adsorption hysteresis. Negative pressure states are in principal known since the time of Torricelli and they have been in the literature as experimentally accessible situations. Still, they have not been turned into practical usefulness which is likely to be caused by the notion of their metastability in macroscopic systems. However, fluids con-fined to nanopores have been proven to show reproducible behaviour. The present time appears to be suited for exploring the new ap-plications resting in fluid/pore systems: since about a decade material scientists have started to prepare pores with increasing accura-cy from an increasing variety of substances. On the other hand, the new theory presented in the first part of the talk provides the tool to drive a fluid/pore system reliably into any of the exotic states found within a hysteresis loop. Prospects of a few applications will be discussed.展开更多

We propose a semantic centered cloud control framework for cooperative multi-unmanned ground vehicle(UGV) system. Firstly, semantic modeling of task and environment is implemented by ontology to build a unified conceptual architecture, and secondly, a scene semantic information extraction method combining deep learning and semantic web rule language(SWRL) rules is used to realize the scene understanding and task-level cloud task cooperation. Finally, simulation results show that the framework is a feasible way to enable autonomous unmanned systems to conduct cooperative tasks.展开更多

Instead of separated parts of speech decoding and language parsing, a close cool,ration is carded out in SHTQS by integrating automatic speech recognizer （AS,R）, language understanding, dialogue management and speech generatot. In such a way, the erroneous analysis and uncertainty happening in the preceding stages would be recovered and determined acourately with high-level knowledge, Moreover, instead of shallow word-level analysis or simply keyword or key phrase matching, a deeper analysis is performed in our system by integrating a robust parser and a semantic interpreter. The robust parser is particularly important for spontanecos speech inputs because most of the inquiry sentences/phrases are ill-formed. In addition, in designinga mixed-initiative dialogue system, understanding users＇ inquiries is essential; however, simply matching keywords and/or key phrases can hardly achieve this. Therefore, a semantic interpreter is incorporated in oar system. The performnce of is also evaluated. The dialogue efficiency is 4.4 sentences per query on an average and the case precision rate of language understanding module is up to 81%. The results are satisfactory.展开更多
