Read MoreGuidance Law Based on Line-of-Sight Rate Information Considering Uncertain Modeled Dynamics
Proportional navigation (PN) is a widely-used guidance law for missiletarget engagement. The goal of the missile intercept problem is to reduce the closest distance between the missile and target by diminishing the line-of-sight rate (LOS rate). In general, PN guidance law necessitates information of the LOS rate and missile velocity. The closing velocity (relative approaching…

Read MoreProposed System of New Generation LMS Using Visual Models to Accelerate Language Acquisition
Language skill is a rule-like operation, based on generalized connections. The main property of language skills is awareness. They are formed with conscious mastery of the language means of communication (phonetic, lexical and grammatical). Language acquisition is a complex process which includes a large number of different parameters. Therefore, the study and improvement of language…
