Methods for operating robotic devices (i.e., “robots”) that employ adaptive behavior relative to neighboring robots and external (e.g., environmental) conditions. Each robot is capable of receiving, processing, and acting on one or more multi-device primitive commands that describe a task the robot will perform in response to other robots and the external conditions. The commands facilitate a distributed command and control structure, relieving a central apparatus or operator from the need to monitor the progress of each robot. This virtually eliminates the corresponding constraint on the maximum number of robots that can be deployed to perform a task (e.g., data collection, mapping, searching). By increasing the number of robots, the efficiency in completing the task is also increased.

Typical conventional content based database security scheme mechanisms employ a predefined criteria for identifying access attempts to sensitive or prohibited data. An operator, identifies the criteria indicative of prohibited data, and the conventional content based approach scans or “sniffs” the transmissions for data items matching the predefined criteria. In many environments, however, database usage tends to follow repeated patterns of legitimate usage. Such usage patterns, if tracked, are deterministic of normal, allowable data access attempts. Similarly, deviant data access attempts may be suspect. Recording and tracking patterns of database usage allows learning of an expected baseline of normal DB activity, or application behavior. Identifying baseline divergent access attempts as deviant, unallowed behavior, allows automatic learning and implementation of behavior based access control. In this manner, data access attempts not matching previous behavior patterns are disallowed.

The present invention features methods for operating, such as methods for dispersing and clustering, robotic devices (i.e., “robots”) that employ adaptive behavior relative to neighboring robots and external (e.g., environmental) conditions. Each robot is capable of receiving, processing, and acting on one or more multi-device primitive commands that describe a task the robot will perform in response to other robots and the external conditions. The commands facilitate a distributed command and control structure, relieving a central apparatus or operator from the need to monitor the progress of each robot. This virtually eliminates the corresponding constraint on the maximum number of robots that can be deployed to perform a task (e.g., data collection, mapping, searching, dispersion, and retrieval). By increasing the number of robots, the efficiency in completing the task is also increased.

The architecture and the method of operation of a receiver core are described. The core performs clock and data recovery on an incoming serial data stream transmitted across a wired media, such as a chip-to-chip or card-to-card interconnect. The bit error rate and accuracy of the recovery are optimized without centering of oversampling. Further, random errors due to edge mis-tracking are minimized. The receiver utilizes a phase rotator to detect the edge position of the bits of the data stream, select the optimum data sample and generate early and late signals if the detected edge is not in the expected position. A phase locked loop provides a frequency source for the phase rotator. At least three evenly spaced samples are detected for each bit. A sample processing algorithm, preferably an adaptive behavior algorithm, is used for centering the bit edge between two of the samples.

The system and method of the present invention process clarified emotional response data in order to guide next step adaptive behavior. Emotional responses with predetermined clarified intensities are sorted. The best quality clarified intensity or intensities are then selected as the ‘heart of the matter’, which is then shown to a user to reveal how the user is most uniquely responding to a particular subject or issue. The user is then given guidance on how to respond to the particular subject or issue thereby guiding the user's behavior in response to such subject or issue.

The acceptance of hearing systems is to be improved. To this end there is provision for the control circuit for controlling a directional microphone circuit and/or a noise reduction circuit to feature a timer with which a parameter of the relevant circuit is able to be changed as a function of the time. Time-adaptive withdrawal of the effect of these circuits can for example enable an ear supplied with a new hearing aid to be slowly trained to localization and noise suppression.

The invention discloses a method for establishing a multi-agent model for residential area selection. The method comprises the following steps: establishing an adaptive behavior model of a household agent in a residential site selection process, and setting the household agent, wherein each household agent has the following attributes: age, marriage status, members, deposit, income and vehicles; wherein each household intelligent agent has seven life cycle stages: birth, marriage, child tending, child leaving home, retirement, elderly people alone and death; judging the satisfaction degree ofthe home agent to the current address. For each family agent, when a family is moved, the family agent must be based on the necessity of a new life stage. Different facilities of the residential areaare compared to adapt to new places to input city information and family information. Parameters are adjusted, and the selection of resident living site selection is judged. The model can simulate theresident residence relocation process under the influence of urban central area residence lifting policies.

An adaptive self-centering device (ASCD) which uses one or more ratchet-pawl mechanisms. The hysteretic slip force of the ASCD preferably comes from a friction mechanism. The self-centering originates from the ratcheting of the pawl over the ratchet wheel and a self-centering device, in response to a force from an apparatus such as a spring. The nonlinear hardening of the apparatus, which conforms to the favorable adaptive behavior sought in modern day passive devices, stems from the mechanism of the lever within the apparatus that transforms the linear motion into rotatory motion.
