From the point of view of development of control systems, a significant disadvantage of indirect adaptive control systems of moving objects is the fact that the limiting the properties of such system are determined by the basic adaptive regulator. In other words, to solve the problem of adaptive control it is required to find a non-adaptive regulator, which solves the problem of marine autonomous vehicles. In this case, the adaptive controller replaces many controllers that solve the control of multiple objects in a non-adaptive domain. The paper presents method of direct adaptive control for marine autonomous vehicles. Nonlinear mathematical models are considered. The method is based on position-trajectory control approach. It is proved the designed by suggested method controller is a vector nonlinear PI-regulator. The regulator ensures asymptotical stability of the closed-loop control system.

In this report, we propose an approach to the automatic extraction of such components of the image, that are most useful for human observers to solve the recognition task. This approach is based on the concepts of psychophysiological mechanisms of grouping the simple features at the preattentive stages of visual processing. A method is based on digital image processing by a software implemented model "filter-rectify-filter". The extraction of the most informative areas of the photograph is based on finding local maxima of the model "outputs". The calculation results indicate that the areas of the image containing spatial modulations of the local features may be very useful for the recognition of faces.

The results of research of characteristics of behavior under stress, depending on the individual level of testosterone and sex composition of the group are presented in the article. Study was an experiment with natural biological model of a small social group. The laboratory mice were used as model animals. The living conditions in the modern city were modeled in experiment. The influence of external factors to the level of testosterone in the animals blood, both males, and females, are demonstrated. A correlation between the characteristics of the individuals behaviour in the group and the concentrations of testosterone was detected out. For the males the nature of this relation was not dependent on the number of stress factors: the dominant male-mouse has had the highest rate of male sex hormone in the blood. The females of the control group had the opposite trends: most active female-mouse had testosterone levels below the average. In stress the feedback watched for females became similar to trends specific for males. The same-sex groups had feature consisted in higher concentrations of testosterone in the blood of the test mice compared with animals that belong to bisexual group, as well as the more aggressive nature of relationships in group and the lack of a dominant individual. The parallels between the obtained results and data of the researches of social processes are considered.

Timeliness of the topic is caused by the necessity of making amendments in Maritime activities development strategy of the Russian Federation till 2030 and drafting of Federal law blueprint for national administration of maritime activities which require expert reviews of regulatory documents and public discussion on major issues. Today for Russia it is of particular importance to foster a mature civil society and to develop its ability to influence on adoption of political and administrative decisions. The present research goal is to reveal the interaction principles between political subjects in the process of maritime activities development strategy. Novelty of the selected approach consists in applying of the model principles to studying of civil society structures’ participation in strategic solutions formation in terms of maritime sphere. The research objectives are the following: model building of networking interaction between political subjects in the process of maritime activities development strategy; specifying of civil participation forms in the strategy development; revealing strengths and weaknesses in the mechanism of strategic solutions approval in terms of maritime sphere; drafting proposals of management process improvement in industrial management using maritime activities administration as an example. For designing political developments we use IDEF0 modeling technology, the most suitable for achieving the objectives, because it is necessary to create a logic model of the entire system as a set of interrelated functions and elements. Purpose of creating the model is a comprehensive vision of functional relations in policy decisions (in the form of doctrine) and methods of their realization (in the form of strategy) for revealing weaknesses within the system in the context of deviation from the stated goals, and as a result we have a problem solution dealing with the political management quality. Main conclusion: quality of strategic decision-making depends on the level of institutionalization in the interaction process between political decision-making participants and on the involvement of civil society structures in the performance control.
