A new algorithm is suggested to solve the optimal reactive power control(optimal VAR control) problem. An efficient computer program based on the latest achievements in the sparse matrix/vector techniques has been developed for this purpose. The model minimizes the real power losses in the system. The constraints include the reactive power limits of the generators, limits on the bus voltages and the operating limits of control variables- the transformer tap positions, generator terminal voltages and switchable reactive power sources. The method developed herein employs linearized sensitivity relationships of power systems to establish both the objective function for minimizing the system losses and the system performance sensitivities relating dependent and control variables. The algorithm consists of two modules, i.e. the Q-V module for reactive power-voltage control, Load flow module for computational error adjustments. In particular, the acceleration factor technique is introduced to enhance the convergence property in Q-module, The combined use of the afore-mentioned two modules ensures more effective and efficient solutions for optimal reactive power dispatch problems. Results of the application of the method to the sample system and other worst-case system demonstrated that the algorithm suggested herein is compared favourably with conventional ones in terms of computation accuracy and convergence characteristics.

Slow Feature Discriminant Analysis (SFDA) is a supervised feature extraction method inspired by biological mechanism. In this paper, a novel method called Two Dimensional Slow Feature Discriminant Analysis via $L_{2,1}$ norm minimization ($2DSFDA-L_{2,1}$) is proposed. $2DSFDA-L_{2,1}$ integrates $L_{2,1}$ norm regularization and 2D statically uncorrelated constraint to extract discriminant feature. First, $L_{2,1}$ norm regularization can promote the projection matrix row-sparsity, which makes the feature selection and subspace learning simultaneously. Second, uncorrelated features of minimum redundancy are effective for classification. We define 2D statistically uncorrelated model that each row (or column) are independent. Third, we provide a feasible solution by transforming the proposed $L_{2,1}$ nonlinear model into a linear regression type. Additionally, $2DSFDA-L_{2,1}$ is extended to a bilateral projection version called $BSFDA-L_{2,1}$. The advantage of $BSFDA-L_{2,1}$ is that an image can be represented with much less coefficients. Experimental results on three face databases demonstrate that the proposed $2DSFDA-L_{2,1}/BSFDA-L_{2,1}$ can obtain competitive performance.

The exhaustive list of sparsification methods for a digital image suffers from achieving an adequate number of zero and near-zero coefficients. The method proposed in this paper, which is known as the Discrete Rajan Transform Sparsification, overcomes this inadequacy. An attempt has been made to compare the simulation results for benchmark images by various popular, existing techniques and analyzing from different aspects. With the help of Discrete Rajan Transform algorithm, both lossless and lossy sparse representations are obtained. We divided an image into $8{\times}8-sized$ blocks and applied the Discrete Rajan Transform algorithm to it to get a more sparsified spectrum. The image was reconstructed from the transformed output of the Discrete Rajan Transform algorithm with an acceptable peak signal-to-noise ratio. The performance of the Discrete Rajan Transform in providing sparsity was compared with the results provided by the Discrete Fourier Transform, Discrete Cosine Transform, and the Discrete Wavelet Transform by means of the Degree of Sparsity. The simulation results proved that the Discrete Rajan Transform provides better sparsification when compared to other methods.

This paper presents a method for clustering short text documents, such as news headlines, social media statuses, or instant messages. Due to the characteristics of these documents, which are usually short and sparse, an appropriate technique is required to discover hidden knowledge. The objective of this paper is to identify the combination of document representation, document distance, and document clustering that yields the best clustering quality. Document representations are expanded by external knowledge sources represented by a Distributed Representation. To cluster documents, a K-means partitioning-based clustering technique is applied, where the similarities of documents are measured by word mover's distance. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, experiments were conducted to compare the clustering quality against several leading methods. The proposed method produced clusters of documents that resulted in higher precision, recall, F1-score, and adjusted Rand index for both real-world and standard data sets. Furthermore, manual inspection of the clustering results was conducted to observe the efficacy of the proposed method. The topics of each document cluster are undoubtedly reflected by members in the cluster.

In this paper, an innovative robust feature detection and matching strategy for visual odometry based on stereo image sequence is proposed. First, a sparse multiscale 2D local invariant feature detection and description algorithm AKAZE is adopted to extract the interest points. A robust feature matching strategy is introduced to match AKAZE descriptors. In order to remove the outliers which are mismatched features or on dynamic objects, an improved random sample consensus outlier rejection scheme is presented. Thus the proposed method can be applied to dynamic environment. Then, geometric constraints are incorporated into the motion estimation without time-consuming 3-dimensional scene reconstruction. Last, an iterated sigma point Kalman Filter is adopted to refine the motion results. The presented ego-motion scheme is applied to benchmark datasets and compared with state-of-the-art approaches with data captured on campus in a considerably cluttered environment, where the superiorities are proved.

Due to various factors such as postures, facial expressions and illuminations, face recognition by videos often suffer from poor recognition accuracy and generalization ability, since the within-class scatter might even be higher than the between-class one. Herein we address this problem by proposing a hierarchical cascaded classifier for video face recognition, which is a multi-layer algorithm and accounts for the misclassified samples plus their similar samples. Specifically, it can be decomposed into single classifier construction and multi-layer classifier design stages. In single classifier construction stage, classifier is created by clustering and the number of classes is computed by analyzing distance tree. In multi-layer classifier design stage, the next layer is created for the misclassified samples and similar ones, then cascaded to a hierarchical classifier. The experiments on the database collected by ourselves show that the recognition accuracy of the proposed classifier outperforms the compared recognition algorithms, such as neural network and sparse representation.

본 논문에서는 희소 패리티 검사 행열로부터 생성된 생성행열을 사용하여 에러 정정능력과 높은 부호율을 갖는 DC-free 다중 모드 부호를 구성하기 위한 새로운 부호화 기법을 제안 한다. 제안된 기법은 별개의 후보 부호워드들을 생성하기 위해 고속 생성행열들을 이용한다. 복호 과정의 복잡도는 수신된 부호워드의 신드롬이 ‘0’인지 아닌지에 따라 결정된다. 만약 신드롬이 ‘0’ 인 경우 복호는 수신된 부호워드의 잉여 비트들을 삭제하여 간단히 수행되고, ‘1’인 경우에는 합곱 (sum-product) 알고리즘으로 복호가 이루어진다. 제안된 기법은 DC 성분을 억압하면서도 낮은 비트 오율을 가질 수 있다.

In laser pointer interaction systems, laser spot detection is one of the most important technologies, and most of the challenges in this area are related to the varying backgrounds, and the real-time performance of the interaction system. In this paper, we present a robust dictionary construction and update algorithm based on a sparse model of background subtraction. In order to control dynamic backgrounds, first, we determine whether there is a change in the backgrounds; if this is true, the new background can be directly added to the dictionary configurations; otherwise, we run an online cumulative average on the backgrounds to update the dictionary. The proposed dictionary construction and update algorithm for laser spot detection, is robust to the varying backgrounds and noises, and can be implemented in real time. A large number of experimental results have confirmed the superior performance of the proposed method in terms of the detection error and real-time implementation.

The efficiency of a powertrain system of hybrid vehicle is highly dependent on the design and control of the hybrid powertrain system. In other words, the optimal design of the powertrain systems is coupled with optimal control of the powertrain system. Therefore, the solution of an optimal design problem for hybrid vehicles is computationally and timely very expensive. For example, dynamic programming, which is a recursive optimization method, is usually used to evaluate the best fuel economy of certain hybrid vehicle design, and, thus, the evaluation takes tens of minutes to several hours. This research aims to accelerate the speed of efficiency evaluation of hybrid vehicles. We suggest a mathematical treat and a methodological treat to reduce the computational load. The mathematical treat is that the dynamics of system is discretized with sparse sampling time without loss of energy balance. The methodological treat is that the efficiency of the hybrid vehicle is inferred by characteristic loss evaluation that is computationally inexpensive. With the suggested methodology, evaluating a design candidate of hybrid powertrain system is taken few minutes, which was taken several hours when dynamic programming is used.
