A real-time single reservoir operation model using the Min-max Dynamic Programming for the flood control of Soyanggang Dam and Choongju Dam is developed. The objective function is to minimize the maximum release from each dam and the constraints are those from ther reservoir and channel characteristics. Control and utilization efficiencies are used to measure the performance of the reservoir operation method (ROM). In comparison with those of simulation models(such as the Rigid ROM, the Technical ROM and the Linear Decision Rule), the efficiencies of the optimization model are superior for all return periods.

An image segmentation approach based on the fuzzy worm searching and MIN-MAx clusterng algorithm is proposed in this paper. This algorithm deals with fuzzy worm value and min-max node at a gross scene level, which investigates the edge information including fuzzy worm action. But current segmentation methods based edge extraction methods generally need the mask information for the algebraic model, and take long run times at mask operation, wheras the proposed algorithm has single operation ccording to active searching of fuzzy worms. In addition, we also genetic min-max clustering using genetic algorithm to complete clustering and fuzyz searching on grey-histogram of image for the optimum solution, which can automatically determine the size of rnages and has both strong robust and speedy calculation. The simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm adaptively divided the quantized images in histogram region and performed single searching methods, significantly alleviating the increase of the computational load and the memory requirements.

This paper presents a method of constructing the digital logic switching functions using PLA. First of all, we propose a MIN and MAX algebra arithmetic operation based on the Post algebra. And we discuss the T-gate which is used for realization of the MIN and MAX algebra arithmetic operation. Next, we discuss the MIN array and MAX array which are basic circuit of the PLA, also we discuss the literal property. For the purpose of the design for the digital logic switching functions using PLA, we Propose the variable partition, modular structure design, literal generator, decoder and invertor. The proposed method is the more compactable and extensibility.

In this paper, we proposed the image processing techniques for extracting the cracks in a concrete surface crack image and the enhanced Max-Min neural network for recognizing the directions of the extracted cracks. The image processing techniques used are the closing operation or morphological techniques, the Sobel masking for extracting for edges of the cracks, and the iterated binarization for acquiring the binarized image from the crack image. The cracks are extracted from the concrete surface image after applying two times of noise reduction to the binarized image. We proposed the method for automatically recognizing the directions of the cracks with the enhanced Max-Min neural network. Also, we propose an enhanced Max-Min neural network by auto-tuning of learning rate using delta-bar-delta algorithm. The experiments using real concrete crack images showed that the cracks in the concrete crack images were effectively extracted and the enhanced Max-Min neural network was effective in the recognition of direction of the extracted cracks.

Three optical fuzzy calculating modules, MAX/MIN, NOT/THROUGH, and SUP/THROUGH operating modules, are proposed. The MAX/MIN operating on inputted 2 membership functions. The NOT/THROUGH operating module calculates the complement of the membership function. The SUP/THROUGH operating module outputs an image representing the supremum (least upper bound) of the membership function. The THROUGH operation passes the image of the inputted membership function from the entrance to the exit. This paper demonstrates that these modules can output the image into which the modules transform inputted images on the basis of operation on fuzzy logic.

In this paper, I devise a balance-swap optimization (BSO) algorithm to solve economic load dispatch with a quadratic fuel cost function. This algorithm firstly sets initial values to $P_i{\leftarrow}P_i^{max}$, (${\Sigma}P_i^{max}$ > $P_d$) and subsequently entails two major processes: a balance process whereby a generator's power i of $_{max}\{F(P_i)-F(P_i-{\alpha})\}$, ${\alpha}=_{min}(P_i-P_i^{min})$ is balanced by $P_i{\leftarrow}P_i-{\alpha}$ until ${\Sigma}P_i=P_d$; and a swap process whereby $_{max}\{F(P_i)-F(P_i-{\beta})\}$ > $_{min}\{F(P_i+{{\beta})-F(P_j)\}$, $i{\neq}j$, ${\beta}$ = 1.0, 0.1, 0.1, 0.01, 0.001 is set at $P_i{\leftarrow}P_i-{\beta}$, $P_j{\leftarrow}P_j+{\beta}$. When applied to 15, 20, and 38-generators benchmark data, this simple algorithm has proven to consistently yield the best possible results. Moreover, this algorithm has dramatically reduced the costs for a centralized operation of 73-generators - a sum of the three benchmark cases - which could otherwise have been impossible for independent operations.

An integrable circuit technique for implementing high-speed analog two-input Max/Min circuit is described. The realization method is suitable for fabrication using CMOS technology. The proposed circuit comprises a current mirror and electronic switch connected with a absolute value circuit. The maximum or minimum operation of the proposed circuit can be selected by an external control voltage. The proposed analog Max/Min circuit has a very sharp transfer characteristic and is suitable for real-time systems. Simulation results verified the circuit performances are agreed with the expected values.

Its simple structure can provide a high efficiency. The performance of the scheme exhibits a very sharp transfer characteristic and high accuracy. The proposed scheme achieves a high-speed operation and is suitable for real-time systems. The simulation results verifying the performances of the scheme are agreed with the expected values.

Content based image retrieval is increasingly gaining popularity among image repository systems as images are a big source of digital communication and information sharing. Identification of image content is done through feature extraction which is the key operation for a successful content based image retrieval system. In this paper content based image retrieval system has been developed by adopting a strategy of combining multiple features of shape, color and relevance feedback. Shape is served as a primary operation to identify images whereas color and relevance feedback have been used as supporting features to make the system more efficient and accurate. Shape features are estimated through second derivative, least square polynomial and shapes coding methods. Color is estimated through max-min mean of neighborhood intensities. A new technique has been introduced for relevance feedback without bothering the user.

We obtain means and variances of max {X, Y} and min {X, Y} in the underlying Morgenstern type bivariate uniform variables X and Y with same scale parameters and different scale parameters respectively. And we obtain the conditional expectations in the underlying Morgenstern type bivariate uniform variables. Here, we shall consider the conditional expectations to know the dependence of one variable on the other variable and we consider the behaviors of means and variances of max {X, Y} and min {X, Y} with respect to changes in means, variances, and the correlation coeffcient of the underlying Morgenstern type bivariate uniform variables.
