A new improved robust variable structure tracking controller is presented to provide an accurately prescribed tracking performance for brushless direct drive(BLDD) servo motors(SM) under uncertainties and load variations. A special integral sliding surface suggested for removing the reaching phase problems can define its ideal sliding mode and virtual ideal sliding trajectory from an initial position of SM. The tracking error caused by the nonzero value of the sliding surface is derived. A corresponding continuous control input with the disturbance observer is suggested to track a predetermined virtual ideal sliding trajectory within a prescribed value under all the uncertainties and load variations. The usefulness of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through the comparative simulations for a BLDD SM under load variations.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm that applies a different variable lambda to each loss value to solve the performance degradation caused by domain differences in LwF, and show that the retention of past knowledge is improved. The lambda value could be variably adjusted so that the current task to be learned could be well learned, by the variable lambda method of this paper. As a result of learning by this paper, the data accuracy improved by an average of 5% regardless of the scenario. And in particular, the performance of maintaining past knowledge, the goal of this paper, was improved by up to 70%, and the accuracy of past learning data increased by an average of 22% compared to the existing LwF.

The ordinary least squares regression method of Haseman and Elston(1972) is most widely used in genetic linkage studies for continuous traits of sib pairs. Kruglyak and Lander(1995) suggested a statistic which appears to be a nonparametric counterpart to the Haseman and Elston(1972)'s regression method, but in fact these two methods are quite different. In this paper the relationships between these two methods are described and will be compared by simulation studies. One of the characteristics of the sib-pair linkage study is that the explanatory variable has only three different values and thus dependent variable is heavily replicated in each value of the explanatory variable. We propose a weighted least squares regression method which is more appropriate to this situation and the efficiency of the weighted regression in genetic linkage study was explored with normal and non-normal simulated continuous traits data. Simulation studies demonstrated that the weighted regression is more powerful than other tests.

Various processes which produce L-lactic acid using ammonia-tolerant mutant strain, Rhizopus sp. MK-96-1196, in a 3L airlift bioreactor were evaluated. When the fed-batch culture was carried out by keeping the glucose concentration at 30g/L, more than 140 g/L of L-lactic acid was produced with a product yield of 83%. In the case of the batch culture with 200g/L of initial glucose concentration, 121g/L of L-lactic acid was obtained but the low product yield based on the amount of glucose consumed. In the case of a continuous culture, 1.5g/L/h of the volumetric productivity with a product yield of 71% was achieved at dilution rate of $0.024\;h^{-1}$. Basis on these results three processes were evaluated by simple variable cost estimation including carbon source, steam, and waste treatment costs. The total variable costs of the fed-batch and continuous cultures were 88% and 140%, respectively, compared to that of batch culture. The fed-batch culture with high L-lactic acid concentration and high product yield decreased variable costs, and was the best-suited for the industrial production of L-lactic acid.

Objectives: The association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and mortality or serious cardiovascular events over a long period of time is not clearly understood. The aim of this observational study was to estimate the clinical effectiveness of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment on an outcome variable combining mortality, acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and cerebrovascular insult (CVI) during a follow-up period of 15.5 years ($186{\pm}58$ months). Methods: The data set consisted of 978 patients with an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ${\geq}5.0$. One-third had used CPAP treatment. For the first time, a data-driven causal Bayesian network (DDBN) and a hypothesis-driven causal Bayesian network (HDBN) were used to investigate the effectiveness of CPAP. Results: In the DDBN, coronary heart disease (CHD), congestive heart failure (CHF), and diuretic use were directly associated with the outcome variable. Sleep apnea parameters and CPAP treatment had no direct association with the outcome variable. In the HDBN, CPAP treatment showed an average improvement of 5.3 percentage points in the outcome. The greatest improvement was seen in patients aged ${\leq}55$ years. The effect of CPAP treatment was weaker in older patients (>55 years) and in patients with CHD. In CHF patients, CPAP treatment was associated with an increased risk of mortality, AMI, or CVI. Conclusions: The effectiveness of CPAP is modest in younger patients. Long-term effectiveness is limited in older patients and in patients with heart disease (CHD or CHF).

VoD(Video-on-Demand) servers have to provide timely processing guarantees for continuous media and reduce the storage and bandwidth requirements for continuous media. The compression techniques make the bit rates of compressed video data significantly variable from frame to frame. A VoD system should be able to provide the client with interactive operations such as fast forward and fast rewind in addition to normal playback of movie. However, interactive operations require additional resources such as storage space, disk bandwidth, memory and network bandwidth. In a stored video application such as VoD system, it is possible that a priori disk access patterns can be used to reserve the system resources in advance. In addition, clients of VoD server spend most of their time in playback mode and the period of time spent in interactive mode is relatively small. In this paper, I present the new buffer management scheme that provides efficient support for interactive operations in a VoD server using variable bit rate continuous media. Simulation results show that our strategy achieves 34% increase of the number of accepted clients over the LRU strategy.

The optimal cell concentration and dilution rate for maximum ethanol productivity were obtained using dynamic simulation in cell recycled continuous bioreactor. The good control performance was observed using rule-based STR (self-tuning regulator) compared to conventional STR. Rule-base contained the scheme to implement the STR in an efficient on-off way and the scheme for the controlled variable to reach the optimal value in a short time. Since a mathematical model was used to analyze and estimate the changes of the state variables and the parameters, it was possible to understand the physical meaning of the system.

This study is to applicate IPC girder at curved bridge. This study introduces the variable(radius, $d_{ci}$, $d_{co}$, etc..) used in design IPC curved bridge. And this presents the possible radius in simple bridge and continuous bridge. For example, simple bridge that have span length is 30m, minimum possible radius is 300m. In continuous bridge, girders are arranged by sloped in $\theta$. So in this case, the bridge is under consideration that horizontality pressure in bridge pier.

A hybrid system contains both continuous variables and discrete event components. This paper presents the new control architecture for hybrid systems, which consists of a conventional controller for the continuous-time variable of the system, a supervisor for discrete event components of the system, and an interface for link between the controller and the plant. The presented controller is suitable for the system operating at the different operating conditions or for system being changing the plant model by enabling and disabling discrete events. This paper shows that the presented controller is better than the conventional controller.
