    Classification of Manipulators of the Same Origin by Virtue of Compactness and Complexity
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2011) Gezgin, Erkin; Özdemir, Serhan
    This work deals with a classification method that employs concepts such as complexity and compactness. The idea is to classify manipulators, or any other mechanism for that matter, of the same origin, based on the geometry of the joints, the tasks performed by the joints, the efficiency and the manufacturing cost to generate the specified efficiency. It is known that successive units on a single branch create individual uncertainties that affect the eventual quality of the performed operation [1]. An entropic expression quantifies this uncertainty in terms of the number of links and the unit effectiveness. The concepts of compactness and complexity have been formulated, and these concepts are explained through serial and parallel manipulators with varying parameters. Eventually, a cost function is created which is a function of complexity, uncertainty and the manufacturing cost. A worked example on M = 6 Stewart-Gough platform is given how this cost function could be taken advantage of when deciding an initial manipulator. A genetic algorithm is used for the optimization of the cost function, where the results are tabulated.

    Continuous Time Wavelet Entropy of Auditory Evoked Potentials
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Çek, Mehmet Emre; Özgören, Murat; Savacı, Ferit Acar
    In this paper, the continuous time wavelet entropy (CTWE) of auditory evoked potentials (AEP) has been characterized by evaluating the relative wavelet energies (RWE) in specified EEG frequency bands. Thus, the rapid variations of CTWE due to the auditory stimulation could be detected in post-stimulus time interval. This approach removes the probability of missing the information hidden in short time intervals. The discrete time and continuous time wavelet based wavelet entropy variations were compared on non-target and target AEP data. It was observed that CTWE can also be an alternative method to analyze entropy as a function of time. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Measures of Uncertainty in Power Split Systems
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Özdemir, Serhan
    This paper discusses the overlooked uncertainty inherent in every transmission. The uncertainty aspect has been often, for the sake of clarity, ignored. Instead, mechanical transmissions have been characterized traditionally by their transmission efficacies. It is known that transmission localities are sources of power loss, depending on many factors, hence sources of uncertainty. Thus each transmission of power should not only be designated by a constant of efficiency but also by an expression of uncertainty, reflecting the probability of transmission. Furthermore, Shannon's and Renyi's expressions of entropy have been used to quantify this so-called transmission uncertainty. The entropy of a transmitting unit is given in these two forms and then compared. Practical formulations for flow optimization are given.
