In this paper, I'd like to make a suggestion for boundary line detect algorithm which is used 3-D image processing system in order to track moving object. Through this study, more than anything else, difference image method was adopted to detect moving object in input image. To detect moving object, I made use of detect windows constructed by 4's predictive areas and object area for the purpose of reducing processing time and its size was determined by the size of moving object and prediction parameter directed center position. And also, tracking camera was movable toward the direction of X, Y by DC motor. As a conclusion of the study proposed algorithm, I found out the following results that tracking error was less than 6% of total moving object size and maximum tracking time 2 seconds by toy-car simulation.

The adaptive resource optimization problem in multi-input multi-output orthogonal frequency division multiple access (MIMO-OFDMA) systems is addressed. This paper, adaptive modulation and coding(AMC) and power control algorithms is proposed with SFC(Space-Frequency Coding), which aims to maximize the system capacity based on the CQI(Channel Quality Information). Firstly, power level is decided to each sub-channels with received feedback signal to noise ratio(SNR). In the second step, sub-carriers are allocated according to modulation type. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves a better performance than conventional algorithm in terms of capacity.

In new deregulated electricity market, short-term price forecasting is key information for all market players. A better forecast of market-clearing price (MCP) helps market participants to strategically set up their bidding strategies for energy markets in the short-term. This paper presents a new prediction strategy to improve the need for more accurate short-term price forecasting tool at spot market using an artificial neural networks (ANNs). To build the forecasting ANN model, a three-layered feedforward neural network trained by the improved Levenberg-marquardt (LM) algorithm is used to forecast the locational marginal prices (LMPs). To accurately predict LMPs, actual power generation and load are considered as the input sets, and then the difference is used to predict price differences in the spot market. The proposed ANN model generalizes the relationship between the LMP in each area and the unconstrained MCP during the same period of time. The LMP calculation is iterated so that the capacity between the areas is maximized and the mechanism itself helps to relieve grid congestion. The addition of flow between the areas gives the LMPs a new equilibrium point, which is balanced when taking the transfer capacity into account, LMP forecasting is then possible. The proposed forecasting strategy is tested on the spot market of the Nord Pool. The validity, the efficiency, and effectiveness of the proposed approach are shown by comparing with time-series models

The Distribution System consist of many tie-line switches and sectionalizing switches, operated a radial type. When an outage occurs in Distribution System, outage areas are isolated by system switches, has to restored as soon as possible. At this time, system operator have to get a information about network topology for service restoration of outage areas. Therefore, the searching result of restorative topology has to fast computation time and reliable result topology for to restore a electric service to outage areas, equal to optimal switching operation problem. So, the problem can be defined as combinatorial optimization problem. The service restoration problem is so important problem which have outage area minimization, outage loss minimization. Many researcher is applying to the service restoration problem with various techniques. In this paper, advanced Dijkstra algorithm is applied to searching a restoration topology, is so efficient to searching a shortest path in graph type network. Additionally, fuzzy rules and operator are applied to overcome a fuzziness of correlation with input data.

This paper suggests a segmentation method of speech signal into phonemic units. The suggested segmentation system is speaker-independent and performed without anyprior information of speech signal. In segmentation process, we first divide input speech signal into purevoiced region and not pure voiced speech regions. After then we apply the second algorithm which segments each region into the detailed phonemic units by using the voiced detection parameters, i.e., the time variation of 0th LPC cepstrum coefficient parameter and the ZCR parameter. Types of speech, used to prove the availability of segmentation algorithm suggested in this paper, are the vocabulary composed of isolated words and continuous words. According to the experiments, the successful segmentation rate for 507 phonemic units involved in the total vocabulary is 91.7%.

Since most of devices in the IEEE 802.15.4 LR-WPAN are expected to operate on batteries, they must be designed to consume energy in a very conservative way. Two energy conservation algorithms are proposed for the LR-WPAN: DDC (Dynamic Duty Cycle) and DBT (Dynamic Beacon Tracking). The DDC algorithm adjusts duty cycle dynamically depending on channel conditions. The DBT algorithm switches beacon tracking mode on and off adaptively depending on traffic conditions. Combining the two algorithms reduces energy consumption more efficiently for a wide range of input loads, while maintaining frame delivery ratio and average delay at satisfactory levels.

In order to extract motion features from an input image acquired by a static CCD-camera in a restricted area, we need a robust algorithm to cope with noise sensitivity and condition change. In this paper, we proposed an efficient algorithm to extract and track motion features in a noisy environment or with sudden condition changes. We extract motion features by considering a change of neighborhood pixels when moving objects exist in a current frame with an initial background. To remove noise in moving regions, we used a morphological filter and extracted a motion of each object using 8-connected component labeling. Finally, we provide experimental results and statistical analysis with various conditions and models.

In this paper, a fuzzy logic implementation of the random early detection (RED) mechanism [1] is presented. The main objective of the proposed fuzzy controller is to reduce the loss probability of the RED mechanism without any change in channel utilization. Based on previous studies, it is clear that the performance of RED algorithm is extremely related to the traffic load as well as to its parameters setting. Using fuzzy logic capabilities, we try to dynamically tune the loss probability of the RED gateway. To achieve this goal, a two-input-single-output fuzzy controller is used. To achieve a low packet loss probability, the proposed fuzzy controller is responsible to control the $max_{p}$ parameter of the RED gateway. The inputs of the proposed fuzzy controller are 1) the difference between average queue size and a target point, and 2) the difference between the estimated value of incoming data rate and the target link capacity. To evaluate the performance of the proposed fuzzy mechanism, several trials with file transfer protocol (FTP) and burst traffic were performed. In this study, the ns-2 simulator [2] has been used to generate the experimental data. All simulation results indicate that the proposed fuzzy mechanism out performs remarkably both the traditional RED and Adaptive RED (ARED) mechanisms [3]-[5].

In this research, an obstacle avoidance method is proposed. The common usage of a robot is indoor and the obstacles to the indoor robot is studied. The accurate detection of direction after overcoming the obstacles is necessary for performance of autonomous navigation and mission project. The sensors such as Laser, Ultrasound, PSD can be used to measure the obstacles. In this research, a PSD sensor is used to detect obstacles. It detects the height and width of obstacles located on the floor. Before measuring the obstacles, a calibration of the sensor was done and it produced a better accuracy. We have plotted an error graph using data obtained from the repeated experiments. The graph is fitted to a polynomial curve. The polynomial equation is used for the robot navigation. And in this research, a model of the error of the direction of the robot after overcoming obstacles was obtained also. The prototype of the obstacle and the error of the direction after overcoming the obstacles are modelled using a neural networks. The input of the neural network composed with the height of the obstacles, the speed of robot, the direction of wheels and the error of the direction. To implement the suggested algorithm, we set up a robot which is operated by a notebook computer. Experiment showed the suggested algorithm performed well.
