A fault detector was developed for heat exchangers of a hybrid heat pump (HP) for household. The proposed detector can be applied directly to raw operating data. It is to monitor a tracking error between a measured saturation temperature and its state observer. The observer was estimated from a state-space model simulating dynamics of a heat exchanger. The real hybrid HP was substituted with a dynamic simulator that implemented two-phased heat transfer and was validated by experimental data. And artificial fault data were generated using the simulator. Diagnosing the data showed the following. The residual calculated from the state observer error shows a relatively robust consistency with respect fouling level. The fault detector is practically useful because it detects a threshold fouling beyond which the performance starts to deteriorate significantly.

In this paper, we propose the real-time system that detects and recognizes the human face by PTZ camara. Generally, Face detection algorithms are disturbed by variable illuminations in a image. To avoid those, we use the robust adaboost algorithm for face detection. For recognition, we use PCA algorithm. we focus on the real-time system. It will be necessary in many applications.

In this paper, a hagwon-bus boarding danger warning system based on computer vision is proposed to protect children from an accident causing injuries or death. Three zones are defined and different algorithms are applied to detect moving objects. In zone 1, a block-based entropy value is calculated using the absolute difference image generated by the absolute differential estimation between background image and incoming video frame. In zone 2, an effective and robust motion object tracking algorithm is performed based on the particle filter. Experimental results demonstrate the efficient and effectively of the algorithm for moving object inspection in each zone.

A loop can take place in the process of managing tree topology for mobility management of mobile nodes in infrastructure-based mobile ad hoc networks. The formation of a loop degrades an effective bandwidth of the wireless network by passing an identical message repeatedly within the same loop. Therefore, the loop should be resolved to revert the system back to the normal state. In this paper, we propose a simple and novel mechanism that detects and resolves a loop quickly by tracking the depth of trees. The mobility management approach that employs the loop resolution method is evaluated comparatively with the original tree-based one and the hybrid one. It is shown that the proposed approach far outperforms the other approaches, and it is robust against the rapid changes in network topology.

In the presence of unmodeled dynamics, the robustness of adaptive pole assignment control using new pseudo-plant is presented. The pseudo-plant proposed by Donati et al. is modified as the gain of low pass filter can be set from zero to one. This modified pseudo-plant results in the reduction of modeling error. It is shown that not only this approach is insensitive to input frequency but also it improves the conic condition developed by Ortega et al. which is required to assure stability of adaptive control system despite the model-plant mismatch. A simple method to compensate the tracking error due to the use of pseudo-plant is considered.

최근 컴퓨터 기술의 발전과 함께 임베디드 기기 또한 다양한 기능을 갖추기 시작했다. 본 연구에서는 최근 활발하게 진행되고 있는 영상센서를 사용한 임베디드 기기 등 자원이 적은 기기에서 효율적인 얼굴 추적 방식을 제안한다. 정확한 얼굴을 얻기 위하여 MB-LBP 특징을 사용한 얼굴 검출 방식을 사용했으며, 다음 영상에서 얼굴 객체 추적을 위하여 얼굴 검출시 얼굴 주변 영역(Region of Interest)을 지정하였다. 그리고 얼굴을 검출을 못하는 영상에서는 기존의 객체 추적 방식인 CAM-Shift를 사용해 객체를 추적해 객체 정보의 손실 없이 정보를 유지 할 수 있도록 하였다. 본 연구는 기존 연구와의 비교를 통하여 객체 추적 시스템의 정확성과 빠른 성능을 확인하였다.

A variable structure control scheme(VSCS) with sliding mode that can be applied to the process with input/output(I/O) delay is proposed and its control performances is evaluated. The proposed VSCS with and output feedback scheme comprises a variable structure controller, a servo dynamic for tracking the set-poing, and a Smith predictor for compensating the effects of time delay. The robustness against the parameter variations and external disturbances can be achieved by the proposed VSCS even when the controlled process includes I/O delay. And the desired transient response is obtained by simple adjustment of the coefficients of the switching surface equation.

In this paper, a parameter estimator is developed for the plant model whose structure is represented by the Takagi-Sugeno model. The essential idea behind the on-line estimation is the comparison of the measured stated with the state of an estimation model whose structure is the same as that of the parameterized model. Based on the parameter estimation scheme, and indirect Model Reference Adaptive Fuzzy control(MRAFC) scheme is proposed to provide asymptotic tracking of a reference signal for the systems with uncertain for slowly time-varying parameters. The developed control law and adaptive law guarantee the boundedness of all signals in the closed-loop systems. In addition, the plant state tracks the state of the reference model asymptotically with time for any bounded reference input signal.

Autonomous Lane detection with vision is a difficult problem because of various road conditions, such as shadowy road surface, various light conditions, and the signs on the road. In this paper we propose a robust lane detection algorithm to overcome shadowy road problem using a statistical method. The algorithm is applied to the vision-based mobile robot system and the robot followed the lane with the lane following controller. In parallel with the lane following controller, the global position of the robot is estimated by the developed localization method to specify the locations where the lane is discontinued. The results of experiments, done in the region where the GPS measurement is unreliable, show good performance to detect and to follow the lane in complex conditions with shades, water marks, and so on.

This paper presents an $H_\infty$controller synthesis based on disturbance observer for the trajectory control of a hydraulic excavator. Compared to conventional robot manipulators driven by electrical motors, hydraulic excavator have more nonlinear and coupled dynamics. In particular, the interactions between an excavation tool and the materials being excavated are unstructured and complex. In addition, its operating modes depend on working conditions, which make it difficult to not only derive the exact mathematical model but also design a controller systematically. In this study, the approximated linear model obtained through off-line system identification is used as nominal plant model for a disturbance observer. A disturbance observer based tracking controller which considers the effect of disturbance and model uncertainty is synthesized in $H_\infty$frameworks. Simulation results are used to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed control scheme.
