Od wielu lat w Polsce wykorzystywane są fundusze unijne do podnoszenia jakości życia. Również w dziedzinie transportu publicznego miasta aktywnie działają w poszukiwaniu nowych dla nas, a sprawdzonych w innych krajach rozwiązań. Miasto Kraków uczestniczyło i nadal bierze udział w różnych projektach i inicjatywach, które służą wymianie doświadczeń pomiędzy miastami w Unii Europejskiej. Jednym z takich projektów był Civitas Caravel, w ramach którego została stworzona nowa usługa transportowa Tele-bus. Jest to przykład udanego transferu technologii oraz wymiany wiedzy i doświadczeń pomiędzy partnerami w projekcie. Usługa ta jest obecna w Krakowie nieprzerwanie od 2007 roku i już kilkakrotnie była rozszerzana.

The EU funds aiming at improvement of quality of life have been used in Poland for many years. Also in the scope of public transport Polish cities seek intensely for solutions - new for us but proven in other countries. City of Cracow has taken part and is still involved in many projects and initiatives which serve to exchange of experiences between cities of the European Union. Civitas Caravel is one of such projects which resulted with a new transport service Tele-bus. It is an example of successful exchange of technologies, knowledge and experiences between partners in the project. This service has been provided to the passengers continuously since 2007 and it has already been expanded for few times.
This paper presents 15 texture features based on GLCM (Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix) and GLRLM (Gray-Level Run-Length Matrix) to be used in an automatic computer system for breast cancer diagnosis. The task of the system is to distinguish benign from malignant tumors based on analysis of fine needle biopsy microscopic images. The features were tested whether they provide important diagnostic information. For this purpose the authors used a set of 550 real case medical images obtained from 50 patients of the Regional Hospital in Zielona Góra. The nuclei were isolated from other objects in the images using a hybrid segmentation method based on adaptive thresholding and kmeans clustering. Described texture features were then extracted and used in the classification procedure. Classification was performed using KNN classifier. Obtained results reaching 90% show that presented features are important and may significantly improve computer-aided breast cancer detection based on FNB images.
In this paper, the concept of a multidimensional discrete spectral measure is introduced in the context of its application to the real-valued evolutionary algorithms. The notion of a discrete spectral measure makes it possible to uniquely define a class of multivariate heavy-tailed distributions, that have recently received substantial attention of the evolutionary optimization community. In particular, an adaptation procedure known from the distribution estimation algorithms (EDAs) is considered and the resulting estimated distribution is compared with the optimally selected referential distribution.
This paper presents an automatic computer system to breast cancer diagnosis. System was designed to distinguish benign from malignant tumors based on fine needle biopsy microscope images. Studies conducted focus on two different problems, the first concern the extraction of morphometric and colorimetric parameters of nuclei from cytological images and the other concentrate on breast cancer classification. In order to extract the nuclei features, segmentation procedure that integrates results of adaptive thresholding and Gaussian mixture clustering was implemented. Next, tumors were classified using four different classification methods: k–nearest neighbors, naive Bayes, decision trees and classifiers ensemble. Diagnostic accuracy obtained for conducted experiments varies according to different classification methods and fluctuates up to 98% for quasi optimal subset of features. All computational experiments were carried out using microscope images collected from 25 benign and 25 malignant lesions cases.

In this paper, a new weighted clustering algorithm for image segmentation in cytopathology is introduced. The weights incorporating spatial information into pixel-based segmentation are computed with use of a color homogram. The effectiveness of the proposed solution is evaluated on microscopic fine needle biopsy (FNB) images. The results of the classical fuzzy c-means algorithm and its weighted modification are compared.

This paper describes three cytological image segmentation methods. The analysis includes the watershed algorithm, active contouring and a cellular automata GrowCut method. One can also find here a description of image pre-processing, Hough transform based pre-segmentation and an automatic nuclei localization mechanism used in our approach. Preliminary experimental results collected on a benchmark database present the quality of the methods in the analyzed issue. The discussion of common errors and possible future problems summarizes the work and points out regions that need further research.
The paper deals with the evolutionary algorithm which uses new methods which allow to increase the efficiency of finding the optimum in an environment in which fitness function is time-varying. All methods base on gathering information from environments obtained with the help of indyviduals (treated as sensors) and use it to help to make a decision to use a particular mechanism. These methods include watching procedure which provides information about changes in the environment based on using individuals as detectors, multiply random immigrants mechanism which investigates a particular area of the environment, predict procedure which tries to calculate the next location of the optimum, memory mechanism which cannot be classified as any existing type of memory.
In this paper a concept of directional mutations for phenotypic evolutionary algorithms is presented. The proposed approach allows, in a very convenient way, to adapt the probability measure underlying the mutation operator during evolutionary process. Simulated experiments confirms the thesis that proposed mutation improves the effectiveness of evolutionary algorithms in the case of the local as well as global optimization problems.
In the paper we propose a new method for an isosurface construction from unorganized points in 3-D. The aim is to combine evolutionary algorithms with a recursive subdivision scheme. the algorithm starts from a base population where each individual represents an N-level surface approximation of an input object. next the population is evaluated and an offspring generation is created with a denser subdivision of surface. The method is illustrated by a set of samples.

This paper provides a description of application of the regular decision tree at the pre-segmentation stage of the breast cancer fine needle biopsy microscope image analysis. The purpose the application is to improve results of segmentation, which is the next stage of the process. The proposed approach consists in the classification of image pixels based on their colour. The result is the image with pixels colour representing the probability of association to one of three classes: the nucleus, the intemucleus matter and the background. The enhancement is evaluated by applying the thresholding segmentation to the resultant image and comparing it with the results of the application of the similar process without the pre-segmentation stage.
The paper deals with an evolutionary algorithm which uses new methods to control the range of mutation. In order to significantly increase the efficiency of finding the optimum, it discovers and exploits knowledge about the state of population in environment in every generation. It allows to be found a solution both quickly and precisely. Due to the division of population into objects dealing with different functions of optimization, it can simultaneously explore as well as exploit solution space. The algorithm works in such a way that it is unable to undergo a premature convergence. There is no possibility of falling into a trap of local optimum. Therefore, it is possible to increase a selective pressure safely, for example with the help of elitist succession.
In this paper evolutionary algorithms are applied to computation of confidence intervals for the expected response of nonlinear models. A simple phenotypic evolutionary algorithm was adapted to deal with nonlinear constraints and utilized to find the maximum and minimum value of a nonlinear model responses inside a confidence region. Moreover, the adequacy of the proposed approach is tested in a series of numerical simulations, and compared with the commonly applied linearization technique.

Multidimensional Symmetric alpha-Stable (S alpha S) mutations are applied to phenotypic evolutionary algorithms. Such mutations are characterized by non-spherical symmetry for alpha<2 and the fact that the most probable distance of mutated points is not in a close neighborhood of the origin, but at a certain distance from it. It is the so-called surrounding effect (Obuchowicz, 2001b; 2003b). For alpha=2, the S alpha S mutation reduces to the Gaussian one, and in the case of alpha=1, the Cauchy mutation is obtained. The exploration and exploitation abilities of evolutionary algorithms, using S alpha S mutations for different alpha, are analyzed by a set of simulation experiments. The obtained results prove the important influence of the surrounding effect of symmetric alpha-stable mutations on both the abilities considered.

The aim of the presented paper is to introduce and compare three novel mechanisms: Simple Variance Adaptation (SVA), Forced Direction of Mutation (FDM) and Deterioration of the Objective Function (DOF), which accelerate the global optimization ability of evolutionary algorithms. The evolutionary algorithm considered here, called Evolutionary Search with Soft Selection (ESSS), is based on the simplest selection-mutation model of phenotype evolution [5]. The comparison analysis is made using two kinds of simulation experiments. The first one is focused on the saddle crossing ability of the algorithm considered. In the second one, chosen global optimization problems are solved.
Almost all known evolutionary algorithms use a "global" selection, i.e., all individuals in the current population compete with each other for placing as many offspring individuals in the next generation as possible. In nature, such a selection is impossible for population is dispersed over a wide area. The natural selection is a "local" one, where an individual competes only with rivals in its "ecological niche". Such a mechanism is implemented in an evolutionary search algorithm proposed in this work and tested on chosen optimization problems.

The neural model-based Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) system for dynamic non-linear processes is considered. The emphasis is placed upon the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN's) for residual generation. The proposed network is constructed with the Dynamic Neuron Model (DNM) which contains local memory. Similar to server based schemes, a network is applied to build the nominal and fault models of the investigated system. The output residuals between the process and the models bank are use to detect and identify faults in the system. The modelling efficiency based on the multilayer feedforward Network of Dynamic Neurons (NDN) is compared with the Elman and recurrent network with outside feedbacks. Finally, the NDN and the cascade NDN architectures are applied to build Neural-Residual Generators (NRG) of the two tank system.

A fault diagnosis scheme for unknown nonlinear dynamic systems with modules of residual generation and residual evaluation is considered. Main emphasis is placed upon designing a bank of neural networks with dynamic neurons that model a system diagnosed at normal and faulty operating points.To improve the quality of neural modelling, two optimization problems are included in the construction of such dynamic networks: searching for an optimal network architecture and the network training algorithm. To find a good solution, the effective well-known cascade-correlation algorithm is adapted here. The residuals generated by a bank of neural models are then evaluated by means of pattern classification. To illustrate the effectiveness of our approach, two applications are presented: a neural model of Narendra's system and a fault detection and identification system for the two-tank process.
