13. Multi-objective optimization of a parallel manipulator for the design of a prosthetic arm using genetic algorithms
Abstract This paper presents a synthesis of a spherical parallel manipulator for a shoulder of a seven-degrees-of-freedom prosthetic human arm using a multi-objective optimization. Three design objectives are considered, namely the workspace, the dexterity, and the actuators torques. The parallel manipulator is modelled considering 13 design parameters in a

14. Dexterous hand gestures recognition based on low-density sEMG signals for upper-limb forearm amputees
Abstract Introduction Intuitive prosthesis control is one of the most important challenges in order to reduce the user effort in learning how to use an artificial hand. This work presents the development of a novel method for pattern recognition of sEMG signals able to discriminate, in a very accurate way, dexterous hand and fingers movements using a reduce

15. Multivariate Calibration to Determine Phorbol Esters in Seeds of Jatropha curcas L. Using Near Infrared and Ultraviolet Spectroscopies
The building of partial least squares (PLS) regression models using near infrared (NIR) and ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopies to estimate the concentrations of phorbol esters (PEs) in Jatropha curcas L. is presented. The models were built using two algorithms for variable selection, ordered predictors selection (OPS) and genetic algorithm (GA). Chromatographic

24. CLASSIFICATION OF POWER QUALITY CONSIDERING VOLTAGE SAGS IN DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS USING KDD PROCESS
In this paper, we propose a methodology to classify Power Quality (PQ) in distribution systems based on voltage sags. The methodology uses the KDD process (Knowledge Discovery in Databases) in order to establish a quality level to be printed in labels. The methodology was applied to feeders on a substation located in Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil, considering at
