A mobile robot localization problem can be classified into following three sub-problems as an observation likelihood model, a motion model and a filtering technique. So far, we have developed the range sensor based, integrated localization scheme, which can be used in human-coexisting real environment such as a science museum and office buildings. From those experiences, we found out that there are several significant issues to be solved. In this paper, we focus on three key issues, and then illustrate our solutions to the presented problems. Three issues are listed as follows: (1) Investigation of design requirements of a desirable observation likelihood model, and performance analysis of our design (2) Performance evaluation of the localization result by computing the matching error (3) The semi-global localization scheme to deal with localization failure due to abrupt wheel slippage In this paper, we show the significance of each concept, developed solutions and the experimental results. Experiments were carried out in a typical modern building environment, and the results clearly show that the proposed solutions are useful to develop practical and integrated localization schemes.

This paper investigates the autonomous ground vehicle (AGV) localization filter design problem under GNSS-denied environments. It is assumed that the given landmarks do not have unique features due to the lack of a prior knowledge on them. For such case, the AGV may have difficulties in distinguishing the position measurement of the detected landmark from those of other landmarks with the same feature, hence the conventional localization filters are not applicable. To resolve this technical issue, the localization filter design problem is formulated as a special form of the data association determining whether the detected feature is actually originated from which landmark. The measurement hypotheses generated by landmarks with the same feature are evaluated by the nearest neighbor data association scheme to reduce the computational burden. The position measurement corresponding to the landmark with the most probable hypothesis is used for localization filter. Through the experiments in real-driving condition, it is shown that the proposed method provides satisfactory localization performance in spite of using non-unique landmarks.

The Human Robot Interface (HRI) based on 3D depth sensor on the docent robot is developed and the localization algorithm based on extended Kalman Filter (EKFLA) are proposed through the capstone design by graduate students in this paper. In addition to this, the performance of the proposed EKFLA is also analyzed. The developed HRI system consists of the route generation and localization algorithm, the user behavior pattern awareness algorithm, the map data generation and building algorithm, the obstacle detection and avoidance algorithm on the robot control modules that control the entire behaviors of the robot. It is confirmed that the improvement ratio of the localization error in EKFLA on the scenarios 1-3 is increased compared with the localization algorithm based on Kalman Filter (KFLA) as 21.96%, 25.81% and 15.03%, respectively.

This paper presents a robust optimal design method for a periodic structure type of MEMS resonator that is vulnerable to mode localization. The robust configuration of such a MEMS resonator to fabrication error is implemented by changing the regularity of periodic structure. For the mathematical convenience, the MEMS resonator is first modeled as a multi pendulum system. The index representing the measure of mode variation is then introduced using the perturbation method and the concept of modal assurance criterion. Finally, the optimal intentional mistuning, minimizing the expectation of the irregularity measure for each substructure, is determined for the normal distributed fabrication error and its robustness in the design of MEMS resonator to the fabrication error is demonstrated with numerical examples.

Free-form blades are widely used in different industries, such as aero-engine and steam turbine. Blades that are damaged during service or have production deficiencies are usually replaced with new ones. This leads to the waste of expensive material and is not sustainable. However, material and costs can be saved by repairing of locally damaged blades or blades with localized production deficiencies. The blade needs to be further machined after welding process to reach the aerodynamic performance requirements. This paper outlines an adaptive location approach of repaired blade for model reconstruction and NC machining. Firstly, a mathematical model is established to describe the localization problem under constraints. Secondly, by solving the mathematical model, localization of repaired blade for NC machining can be obtained. Furthermore, a more flexible method based on the proposed mathematical model and the continuity of the deformation process is developed to realize a better localization. Thirdly, by rebuilding the model of the repaired blade and extracting repair error, optimized tool paths for NC machining is generated adaptively for each individual part. Finally, three examples are given to validate the proposed method.

본 논문에서는 실내 위치 추정 시스템에서 우수한 성능을 보이는 시퀀스 기반 위치추정(Sequence-Based Localization, SBL) 시스템을 위한 효율적인 양자기 설계 알고리즘에 대해 연구한다. SBL 시스템에서는 목표물 위치공간을 다수개의 영역으로 나누고, 각각의 영역에 고유 시퀀스 번호를 할당해서 위치추정이 수행이 되며, 본 연구에서는 이러한 시스템의 위치추정 방식의 특성을 고려하여 노드와 각 고유 시퀀스간의 거리를 양자기 설계를 위한 샘플로 활용하는 방식을 제안하고 이를 통해 기존기술대비, 복잡도를 혁신적으로 개선됨을 보인다, 또한 성능향상을 위해 SBL 시스템에 특화된 새로운 비용함수를 제시하고 이를 최소화하기 위한 최적의 양자화영역 및 코드워드 검색을 통해 기존 양자기 비해 월등한 성능향상을 이룰 수 있음을 다양한 실험조건을 통해 입증한다.

Recently, with increasing the number of patients with head injury and cerebrovascular accident, there has been an increasing need for the useful assessment tools of brain dysfunction and it's localization. With the advances in the neuroscience since the mid-1970s, particularly in the areas of neuroanatomical tracing, neuroimaging, and improved behavioraltest design, it has been possible to develop a more precise understanding and localization of brain dysfunction. However, these equipments are not readily available in the private clinics and too expensive to use as a screening tool to all suspected patients with brain dysfunction. Although several screening tests such as Mini-Mental States Examination(MMSE) or Brief Cognitive Rating Scale(BCRS) are simple in use and useful for the brief assessment of brain dysfunction, these are also limited in using for localization of brain dysfunction because of their simplicity. With increasing need of the assessment tool which is able to localize the dysfunction more precisely in the clinical practice, we planned to develop the new assessment tool, the Bedside Neurocognitive Function Localization Test(BNLT) which is suitable for this purpose. The BNLT was designed to be utilized for localizing brain dysfunction effectively and readily in the clinical practice. We introduced the whole process of designing the BNLT in this manuscript.
