In recent years, ultralight UAVs are increasingly used to meet the challenge of area monitoring, both in military and civilian sectors. The main criterion that guarantees the task implementation is the accuracy of orientation. Usually, the basic equipment for locating is a GLONASS/GPS receiver; the signal from which may be received with noise, delays or could be absent. In this paper, a new ultralight UAVs orientation method is proposed; it is based on detecting a priori specified landmarks while processing the data obtained from the onboard photo camera and successively sweeping the landmarks. The algorithm for generating the landmarks data of the area, action scenarios for UAVs, and a randomized algorithm to optimize the motion of the UAV are described. An example of the ultralight UAV architecture is considered to show the applicability of the proposed method.

Scenario Approach and Feedbacks Using PI-controller Under Idealized Market Conditions

Key words: financial mathematics, scenario approach, adaptive strategy, feedbacks, PI-controller.

A number of recent papers, the apparatus of financial mathematics was used to elaborate new approaches to the analysis of stock exchange. In particular, B. Barmish and co-authors exploit the PI-controller approach. The main attention is paid to the idealized market conditions and prices generated by a non-trivial Geometric Brownian Motion. Under these conditions, a combination of static and dynamic linear feedbacks leads to the positivity of the robust mathematical expectation. Such a strategy does not guarantee a profit; however it shows itself efficient in simulations. Additional assumptions on the model uncertainties are required; specifically, those related to the range of possible variations of the parameters of the moving average model. In this paper, we provide a survey of the stock exchange trading strategy mentioned above, together with the scenario approach. This latter was chosen purposely, since approach can be used to optimize the choice of the feedback coefficients.

Key words: graphs, sequence of degrees, random generation, multiheuristic approach, isomorphism.

In this paper, a multi-heuristic method, a version of incomplete branch-and-bound method is proposed and applied to the random generation of graphs with a given vector of degrees. We also consider various graph invariant comparison sequences understood as heuristic algorithms for checking the isomorphism. Finally, we provide the results of numerical experiments targeted at the quantitative comparison of efficiency of using various invariant comparison sequences.

A Method for Evaluating the Performance of Algorithms of DNA Inter-String Distance Detection

Key words: random variables, DNA string, string difference, algorithm performance assessment.

Discoveries of modern biology and biochemistry increasingly requires processing large amounts of data. One of the promising areas of application of information technology is analyzing the transcribed DNA strings. By comparing the DNA strings, it is possible to establish (with certain probability) the relationship between the individuals and the proximity between the analyzed species. In this paper we describe a method for estimating the performance of algorithms that compute the distance between the DNA strings; application of this method to the evaluation of the existing algorithms is also considered.
