This paper offers an improvement for machine vision based tracking algorithm using NARX neural network. This is achieved by predicting the next position of a mobile agent based on previous movement described by time-series functions. The algorithm remains passive and does not interfere with the quadrotr flight path until detection of multiple agent-candidates, when the tracking algorithm is not able to identify or locate the assigned agent. Meanwhile the NARX training set are updated in parallel with each successful tracking cycle. This process is done to eliminate the overfitting problem of BPTT training.

The paper studies the possibility of interaction of acrylamide with aliphatic di-, tri-, tetra- and pentaamines using quantum chemical ab initio modeling. The interest to the preparation of these compounds can only increase since they may serve as feedstock for the production of other useful materials which may find adequate application. The choice of reaction conditions depends on the thermodynamic principles of the process, and for that reason, the paper determines thermodynamic parameters and the logarithms of the equilibrium constants of acrylamide reaction with aliphatic amines in ratio of 1:1 and 2:1 in the gas phase by quantum-chemical method based on density functional theory using a hybrid exchange-correlation of B3LYP functions in the basis of 3 -21G* within 273 ÷ 450 K temperature range and pressure of 0.1 MPa. These calculations served as a base for defining the conditions that must be followed when developing the technology for these compounds, and it was shown that the reaction of their synthesis with high probability of acrylamide - amine reactants ratio of 2:1 should be conducted under relatively mild conditions. Theoretical calculations comply with the experiment, because the interaction of acrylamide with amines at various ratios of reagents and temperatures within 325 ÷ 330 K leads predominantly to the transformation at acrylamide-amine 2:1 reagent ratio, as evidenced by the number of reactive reagents, and frequency analysis of FT-IR, NMR 1H and 13C spectra.  Thus, the possibilities of mathematical modeling allow determining the highest probability of spontaneity for a particular reaction, using the method of computer simulation by changing the process temperature (within the model) without performing any technological experiments.

A model system was designed and test  trials of physical and mechanical characteristics of small – crystalline and granular flotation potassium chloride are studied. This model system allows to design storage and transportation  of fertilizers in bulk in railway wagons and it has the same static and vibrational load as real system. The effect of temperature and relative humidity of the air on hygroscopy of small – crystalline and granular КСl were studied. Furthermore the influence of static load, and time length  of compression process of fertilizing layer and parameters of static and vibrational load on composition of КСl granules were investigated. It was experimentally proved that the humidity increase (0,5 %) of granular КСl and the  increase of static load and time length  of compression process of product during transportation in bulk lead to increase of compaction degree and caking ability of product. Research of the influence of high static load (10-30 kg/sm2) and time length of compression process of fertilizing layer on caking ability and degree of compaction show that small – grained KCl has smaller degree of compaction and considerably higher value of caking ability in comparison with granular KCl.

This paper presented the study of the mechanochemical activation powder mix in dry and liquid grinding media, accompanied by agglomeration of the particles. It Is shown that when agglomerate particles having a bimodal size distribution is forming during the treatment in a dry grinding media and partially (2 wt % ) decaying at grinding by pestle in mortar. The transition to liquid grinding media is leading to a unimodal size distribution and increasing dispersion of the agglomerated particles, characterized by secondary agglomerating when using the alcohol and destruction when using activation in saturated aqueous solution of boric acid. Inherited effect mechanical activation parameters on the compaction process during cold compaction and hot stamping has been determined. Application treated in a high energy mill in an grinding media saturated aqueous H3BO3 Al-Si powder mix results in the formation of moldings with low cold-pressing relative density (0.735) and the activation of the hot stamping compaction (|εh| = 0,592) providing production of hot-deformed powder material with increased mechanical properties.

The article presents a method of accounting land limits (charges) during the cadastral valuation of agricultural land. This allows us to differentiate the cadastral value , depending of presence of protection zone,  water protection zone and on other zones on the  lands. Cadastral cost of agricultural land on the example of Leningrad region counted. Determination of cadastral cost on the basic presented coefficients will reduce the land tax on the territory which include restricted mode zones of use. It will increase the objectivity of cadastral evaluation.

The article discusses issues related to the development of the optimal structure of neural networks. One of the major problems in the synthesis neural conrollers is ensuring optimal number of neurons and connections between layers  in the network. Necessary to achieve a compromise between the representational network capabilities, and memory that will be required to store it. The article presents a number of heuristics, allowing to reach such a compromise by limiting the number of connections for each neuron.
This is done through the introduction of two characteristics for the neuron: the radius of the coverage and density of connections. Coverage radius determines the number of neurons that could potentially have a connection to this neuron, and the density of the compound gives the actual number of such compounds. Altogether, these characteristics determine the amount of synaptic connections, which can have a neuron. The article presents the heuristics that allow to define these characteristics depending on the network structure.

In this part we present results of our research which clearly show that all Magneli phases of tungsten oxides  WOx (namely W40O118, W20O58, W5O14, W18O49, W8O23, W3O8) and oxide tungsten bronzes MxMyWO3 at M-Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs. They are characterized by metal – like properties. Their band structures display an energy gap in the valence band just below the Fermi level.
We present results of our electrochemical synthesis of tungsten oxide bronzes in ionic melts of the polytungsten salts. Among the new state – of – the art methods for their manufacture, electrochemical synthesis in ionic melts, which  makes considerably better use of existing technologies, is highly productive, based on the discharge of oxyanions of the polytungstates.

The aim of this work was to conduct monitoring and make a regression model of the microbiological air pollution in Volgograd near highways. The work carried out monitoring of microbial air pollution in the residential district of Volgograd near two major highways - first and second longitudinal lines. On the first phase of research the microbial monitoring of air pollution in the residential district of Volgograd was conducted, depending on the proximity to the highway. Number of microbial cells (MC) was evaluated by sedimentation. The assumption is made about the nature of the regression relationship between microbial air pollution and the distance from the highway. Approximating functions and regression coefficients are constructed for the first portion of the longitudinal line at different levels of traffic road. Function is obtained, which allows to calculate the value of microbial contamination of the air, depending on the distance to the road and number of vehicles. In the case of high levels of the microbiological monitoring of the basin air it’s necessary to carry out measures to reduce microbial contamination of the air, for example, regular watering roads, tree planting, vegetative barriers adsorbing pollutants, chemical treatment of disinfectants. The calculation of microbial contamination of the air near a residential building located at a distance of 10 meters from the highway in the central region of Volgograd is conducted using proposed in function prediction of microbial contamination. The developed technique allows us to make calculations without setting up experiments in a specialized microbiology laboratory.
