This study examined whether self-correction or metalinguistic explanation might make a difference in the ability to accurately write two English grammatical structures when learners received indirect teacher feedback in the form of underlining target errors in a Korean EFL college classroom. With the goal of helping low-proficiency students improve their ability to accurately write sentences including nonfinite present participial relative clauses and present participial constructions, four groups were formed: a group which received indirect feedback, a group which received indirect feedback and metalinguistic explanation, a group which received indirect feedback and self-corrected errors, and a group which received indirect feedback and self-corrected errors after receiving metalinguistic explanation. The results showed that the effects of either metalinguistic explanation or self-correction integrated with indirect feedback on learners' ability to accurately write the target structures were not meaningful, while the combined effects of metalinguistic explanation and self-correction were statistically significant.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) 환경에서 sample timing offset(STO)과 carrier frequency offset(CFO)은 inter-symbol interference (ISI), inter-carrier interference (ICI) and phase error를 발생 시키는 원인으로 작용하고 있다. OFDM의 특성상 STO와 CFO에 민감하고, 특히 ICI 가 발생될 경우 보상이 어렵다. 또한 보상을 위해 많은 복잡도를 가진 equalizer가 요구된다. 이 논문에서는 블록 파일럿과 동기화 신호를 가지고, feedback방법을 이용해 STO와 CFO의 효과적인 정정 방법을 제시한다. 주파수 축에서 동기화 신호와 pilot을 이용해 추정한 값들을 시간 축으로 피드백 시킨 후, 시간 영역에서 sample & holder의 시간 타이밍과 oscillator의 주파수의 교정을 통해 정정한다. 시뮬레이션 결과 보상기 없이 피드백 구조만으로 STO와 CFO를 보상하여 성능을 개선 시켰다.

In this paper, a new compressive feedback (CF) scheme based on distributed compressed sensing (DCS) for time-corrected MIMO channel is proposed. First, the channel state information (CSI) is approximated by using a subspace matrix, then, the approximated CSI is compressed using a compressive matrix. At the base station, the approximated CSI can be robust recovered with simultaneous orthogonal matching pursuit (SOMP) algorithm by using forgone CSIs. Simulation results show our proposed DCS-CF method can improve the reliability of system without creating a large performance loss.

In distributed video coding (DVC) systems, the complexity of encoders is greatly reduced by removing the motion estimation operations in encoders, since the correlation between frames is utilized in decoders. The transmission of parity bits is requested through the feedback channel, until the related errors are corrected to decode the Wyner-Ziv frames. The requirement to use the feedback channel limits the application of DVC systems. In this paper, we propose an efficient method to remove the feedback channel in DVC systems. First, a simple side information generation method is proposed to calculate the amount of parity bits in the encoder, and it is shown that the proposed method yields good performance with low complexity. Then, by calibrating the theoretical entropy with three parameters, we can calculate the amount of parity bits in the encoder and remove the feedback channel. Moreover, an adaptive method to determine quantization parameters for key frames is proposed. Extensive computer simulations show that the proposed method yields better performance than conventional methods.

This paper considers an optimal control problem for a remote control to an electrical drive system with a DC motor. Since it is a linear control system with time-delay subject to unknown but bounded disturbance, we construct a worst-case feedback control policy. This policy can guarantee that, for all admissible uncertain disturbances, the real system state should be in a prescribed neighborhood of a desired value, and the cost functional takes the best guarantee value. The worst-case feedback control policy is allowed to be corrected at one correction point between the initial to the final time, which is equivalent to solving a 1-level min-max problem. Since the min-max problem at the stage does not yield a simple analytical solution, we consider an approximate control policy, which is equivalent and can be solved explicitly m the numerical experiments.

This paper describes ongoing work on the correction of adverb errors committed by Korean learners studying English as a foreign language (EFL), using an automated English writing assessment system. Adverb errors are commonly found in learners 'writings, but handling those errors rarely draws an attention in natural language processing due to complicated characteristics of adverb. To correctly detect the errors, adverbs are classified according to their grammatical functions, meanings and positions within a sentence. Adverb errors are collected from learners' sentences, and classified into five categories adopting a traditional error analysis. The error classification in conjunction with the adverb categorization is implemented into a set of mal-rules which automatically identifies the errors. When an error is detected, the system corrects the error and suggests error specific feedback. The feedback includes the types of errors, a corrected string of the error and a brief description of the error. This attempt suggests how to improve adverb error correction method as well as to provide richer diagnostic feedback to the learners.

간단한 부호기를 사용하는 분산 동영상 부호화 시스템은 복호기에서 생성한 부가정보와 원 Wyner-Ziv (WZ) 프레임간의 차이를 채널부호를 이용해 정정하게 되는데 오류정정이 제대로 이루어지지 않으면 복호기에서 피드백 채널을 통해 추가 패리티 비트를 요청하게 된다. 특히 이동통신 등과 같이 제한된 환경에서 분산 동영상 부호화 시스템을 사용하기 위해서는 전송률 및 부호화 왜곡을 효율적으로 제어할 수 있어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 부호기에서 비트 전송률을 제한함으로써 통신환경에 맞도록 비트 전송률을 일정하게 제어하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 전송률을 적절히 제어할 뿐 만 아니라 부호화 성능도 일정하게 유지하는 장점이 있다.

This paper introduces a new two-step procedure for PWR depletion analyses. This procedure adopts the albedo-corrected parameterized equivalence constants (APEC) method to correct the lattice-based raw cross sections (XSs) and discontinuity factors (DFs) by accounting for neutron leakage. The intrinsic limitations of the conventional two-step methods are discussed by analyzing a 2-dimensional SMR with the commercial DeCART2D/MASTER code system. For a full-scope development of the APEC correction, the MASTER nodal code was modified so that the group constants can be corrected in the middle of a microscopic core depletion. The basic APEC methodology is described and color-set problems are defined to determine the APEC functions for burnup-dependent XS and DF corrections. Then the new two-step method was applied to depletion analyses of the SMR without thermal feedback, and its validity was evaluated in terms of being able to predict accurately the reactor eigenvalue and nodal power profile. In addition, four variants of the original SMR core were also analyzed for a further evaluation of the APEC-assisted depletion. In this work, several combinations of the burnup-dependent and -independent XS and DF corrections were also considered. The results show that the APEC method could enhance the nodal equivalence significantly with inexpensive additional costs.

In this paper, we consider a terminal, linear control system with delay, subject to unknown but bounded disturbances. For this system, we consider the problem of constructing a worst-case optimal feedback control policy, which can be corrected at fixed, intermediate time instants. The policy should guarantee that for all admissible uncertainties the system states are in prescribed neighborhoods of predefined system states, at all fixed, intermediate time instants, and in the neighborhood of a given state at a terminal time instant, and the value of the cost function is the best guaranteed value. Simple explicit rules(which can be easily implemented on-line) for constructing the optimal control policy in the original control problem are derived.

This paper proposes a control algorithm, which is verified experimentally, for aspherical surface grinding and polishing. The algorithm provides simultaneous control of the position and interpolation of an aspheric curve. The nonlinear formula for the tool position was derived from the aspheric equation and the shape of the tool. The function was partitioned at specific intervals and the control parameters were calculated at each control section. The position, acceleration, and velocity at each interval were updated during the process. A position error feedback was introduced using a rotary encoder. The feedback algorithm corrected the position error by increasing or decreasing the feed speed. In the experimental verification, a two-axis machine was controlled to track an aspherical surface using the proposed algorithm. The effects of the control and process parameters were monitored. The results demonstrated that the maximum tracking error with tuned parameters was at the submicron level for concave and convex surfaces.
