This paper identifies a linear time-invariant mathematical model of each stand of a five-stand tandem cold mill to design a robust $H_\infty$ thickness controller by applying input and output data sets to N4SID (Numerical algorithms for Subspace State Space System Identification) method. The input-output data sets describe interstand interference in the process of tandem cold rolling and are obtained from a nonlinear simulator of the tandem cold mill. In result, it is shown that the identified model well approximates the nonlinear model than a Taylor linearized model. Furthermore, uncertainties including roll eccentricity and incoming strip variation are quantitatively analyzed from the plot of maximum singular values.

In this paper, nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) is addressed to develop formation guidance for multiple unmanned aerial vehicles. An NMPC algorithm predicts the behavior of a system over a receding time horizon, and the NMPC generates the optimal control commands for the horizon. The first input command is, then, applied to the system and this procedure repeats at each time step. The input constraint and state constraint for formation flight and inter-collision avoidance are considered in the proposed NMPC framework. The performance of NMPC for formation guidance critically degrades when there exists a communication failure. In order to address this problem, the modified optimal guidance law using only line-of-sight, relative distance, and own motion information is presented. If this information can be measured or estimated, the proposed formation guidance is sustainable with the communication failure. The performance of this approach is validated by numerical simulations.

This paper presents a derivation of the optimum convergence constant to yield the most rapid convergence under a desired mean-square error (MSE) for echo canceller using the LMS algorithm. For white input data, the optimum convergence constant is a simple closed-form function of the number of filter taps, the input signal variance, the initial MSE, and the desired MSE. This characteristic makes it easily designed in many practical applications. Computer simulations are also employed to show the correctness and effectiveness of the derived results.

The synthesis of optimal controllers for multivariable systems usually requires an accurate linear model of the plant dynamics. Real systems, however, contain nonlinearities and high-order dynamics that may be difficult to model using conventional techniques. This paper presents a novel loaming method for the synthesis of LQR controllers that doesn't require explicit modeling of the plant dynamics. This method utilizes the sign of Jacobian and gradient descent techniques to iteratively reduce the LQR objective function. It becomes easier and more convenient because it is relatively very easy to get the sign of Jacobian instead of its Jacobian. Simulations involving an overhead crane and a hydrofoil catamaran show that the proposed LQR-LC algorithm improves controller performance, even when the Jacobian information is estimated from input-output data.

In this paper, hydro-turbine system is modelled. Real input and output signals are acquired from the hydro-turbine system and the parameters of the model are estimated using input-output data, the model adjustment technique and a genetic algorithm(GA). To verify feasibility of the propose(1 model, computer simulations using GA have been carried out. The results show excellent characteristics of the proposed modeling and identification of the hydro-turbine system.

A more reliable relaying algorithm for detecting a high impedance fault (HIF) requires fault currents at the relaying point containing information of various HIF characteristics as well as load conditions. As HIF characteristics, there are buildup, shoulder, nonlinearity and asymmetry. This paper presents a modeling method of a HIF in a distribution system using EMTP. In order to represent HIF characteristics, the proposed method uses two time-varying resistances. The first TVR models nonlinearity and asymmetry using voltage as the input. The second TVR models buildup and shoulder using time information as the input. The proposed method is implemented in EMTP.

In this paper, we propose a noise estimation method for noise reduction. It is based on block and pixel-based noise estimation. We assume that an input image is contaminated by the additive white Gaussian noise. Thus, we use an adaptive Gaussian filter and estimate the amount of noise. It computes the standard deviation of each block and estimation is performed on pixel-based operation. The proposed algorithm divides an input image into blocks. This method calculates the standard deviation of each block and finds the minimum standard deviation block. The block in flat region shows well noise and filtering effects. Blocks which have similar standard deviation are selected as test blocks. These pixels are filtered by adaptive Gaussian filtering. Then, the amount of noise is calculated by the standard deviation of the differences between noisy and filtered blocks. Experimental results show that our proposed estimation method has better results than those by existing estimation methods.

This paper describes an image segmentation technique for the object-oriented coding at very low bit rates. By noting that, in the object-oriented coding technique, each objects are represented by 3 parameters, namely, shape, motion, and color informations, we propose a segmentation technique, in which the 3 parameters are fully exploited. To achieve this goal, starting with the color space conversion and the noise reduction, the input image is divided into many small regions by the K-menas algorithm on the O-K-S color space. Then, each regions are merged, according to the shape and motion information. In simultations, it is shown that the proposed technique segments the input image into relevant objects, according to the shape and motion as well as the colors. In addition, in order to evaluate the performance of the proposed technique, we introduce the notion of the interesting regions, and provide the results of encoding the image with emphasizing the interesting regions.
