CD-Based Indices for Link Prediction in Complex Network.

PloS one Jan 11, 2016
Lots of similarity-based algorithms have been designed to deal with the problem of link prediction in the past decade. In order to improve prediction accuracy, a novel cosine similarity index CD based on distance between nodes and cosine value betwee...

Analytical model and stability analysis of the leading edge spar of a passively morphing ornithopter wing.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Oct 26, 2015
This paper presents the stability analysis of the leading edge spar of a flapping wing unmanned air vehicle with a compliant spine inserted in it. The compliant spine is a mechanism that was designed to be flexible during the upstroke and stiff durin...

Changes in depression stigma after the Germanwings crash - Findings from German population surveys.

Journal of affective disorders Jul 31, 2015
BACKGROUND: Media coverage of the Germanwings plane crash intensely focused on the co-pilot's mental illness and was criticized for potentially increasing depression stigma. We explored whether stigma beliefs towards persons with depression changed i...

An improved quasi-steady aerodynamic model for insect wings that considers movement of the center of pressure.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Jul 30, 2015
A quasi-steady aerodynamic model in consideration of the center of pressure (C.P.) was developed for insect flight. A dynamically scaled-up robotic hawkmoth wing was used to obtain the translational lift, drag, moment and rotational force coefficient...

Performance analysis of jump-gliding locomotion for miniature robotics.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Mar 26, 2015
Recent work suggests that jumping locomotion in combination with a gliding phase can be used as an effective mobility principle in robotics. Compared to pure jumping without a gliding phase, the potential benefits of hybrid jump-gliding locomotion in...

Flying over uneven moving terrain based on optic-flow cues without any need for reference frames or accelerometers.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Feb 26, 2015
Two bio-inspired guidance principles involving no reference frame are presented here and were implemented in a rotorcraft, which was equipped with panoramic optic flow (OF) sensors but (as in flying insects) no accelerometer. To test these two guidan...
