Recently, the video quality control schemes for the improvement of the QoE (Quality of Experience) of video streaming services that are based on DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP), which is a standard of HTTP adaptive streaming (HAS) services, have been studied. However, the problem of the existing schemes is the degradation that is due to unnecessary quality changes because the VBR (Variable Bitrate) characteristics of the video are not considered. In this paper, we propose a SC-DASH (Segment Characteristics-based DASH) which controls the video quality based on the segment characteristics. The SC-DASH can prevent the occurrence of the unnecessary quality changes by controlling the video quality based on the size of the next segment, the segment throughput, and the buffer occupancy. The experiment results showed that the SC-DASH improves the QoE by reducing the unnecessary quality changes compared with the existing quality control schemes.

In this paper, the performance of OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) was assessed by using computer simulations performed using Matlab. We analyzed channel estimation algorithm for adaptive modulation techniques and effect of system using designed simulator in Multimedia wireless communication multipath fading channel environment. Also, we analyzed performance of adaptive OFDM systems that apply adaptive equalizer using guided result through BER. In result, in case of adaptive modulation OFDM systems that modulation mode changes according to channel state, we knew that adaptive modulation OFDM systems have gains of about 7dB performance than general system (BER=$10^{-1}$). Thus we know that adaptive OFDM propose systems is required for efficient transmission in the high speed Multimedia wireless communication channel environment.

HTTP adaptive streaming is a technique that improves the quality of experience by storing various quality videos on the server and requesting files of the appropriate quality based on network bandwidth. However, it is difficult to measure the actual bandwidth in wireless networks with frequent bandwidth changes and high loss rate. Frequent quality changes and playback interruptions due to bandwidth measurement errors degrade the quality of experience. We propose a technique to estimate the available bandwidth by measuring the jitter, which is the derivation of delay, on a packet basis and assigning a weight according to jitter. The proposed scheme reduces the number of quality changes and mitigates the buffer underflow by reflecting less bandwidth change when high jitter occurs due to rapid bandwidth change. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme improves the quality of experience by mitigating buffer underflow and reducing the number of quality changes in wireless networks.

A hydraulic system is difficult to keep the performance due to non-linearity, load pressure which changes according to working condition and system parameter variation, the requirement of control algorithm has been risen in order to satisfy them. An adaptive control is a control method which is suggested to achieve a control object though plant characteristics change. In spite of the case that plant characteristics and the degree of variation are difficult to grasp, adaptive control can keep the characteristics of closed-loop system regularly. In this study GMVAC(generalized minimum variance adaptive control) combined with output error feedback is proposed in order to solve problems of non-minimum phase, vibration and overshoot in initial response of the plant. The control performance according to the variation of characteristics of the plant is evaluated by changing the supply pressure only.

Polygonal finite element provides a great flexibility in mesh generation of crack propagation problems where the topology of the domain changes significantly. However, the control of the discretization error in such problems is a main concern. In this paper, a polygonal-FEM is presented in modeling of crack propagation problems via an automatic adaptive mesh refinement procedure. The adaptive mesh refinement is accomplished based on the Zienkiewicz-Zhu error estimator in conjunction with a weighted SPR technique. Adaptive mesh refinement is employed in some steps for reduction of the discretization error and not for tracking the crack. In the steps that no adaptive mesh refinement is required, local modifications are applied on the mesh to prevent poor polygonal element shapes. Finally, several numerical examples are analyzed to demonstrate the efficiency, accuracy and robustness of the proposed computational algorithm in crack propagation problems.

In this paper, we present an effective covariance tracking algorithm based on adaptive size changing of tracking window. Recent researches have advocated the use of a covariance matrix of object image features for tracking objects instead of the conventional histogram object models used in popular algorithms. But, according to the general covariance tracking algorithm, it can not deal with the scale changes of the moving objects. The scale of the moving object often changes in various tracking environment and the tracking window(or object kernel) has to be adapted accordingly. In addition, the covariance matrix of moving objects should be adaptively updated considering of the tracking window size. We provide a solution to this problem by segmenting the moving object from the background pixels of the tracking window. Therefore, we can improve the tracking performance of the covariance tracking method. Our several simulations prove the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The major problems of recent object tracking methods are related to the inefficient detection of moving objects due to occlusions, noisy background and inconsistent body motion. This paper presents a robust method for the detection and tracking of a moving in infrared animal videos. The tracking system is based on adaptive optical flow generation, Gaussian mixture and Kalman filtering. The adaptive Gaussian model of optical flow (GMOF) is used to extract foreground and noises are removed based on the object motion. Kalman filter enables the prediction of the object position in the presence of partial occlusions, and changes the size of the animal detected automatically along the image sequence. The presented method is evaluated in various environments of unstable background because of winds, and illuminations changes. The results show that our approach is more robust to background noises and performs better than previous methods.

In recent years, micro-grid has been widely focused on the fields of renewal energy systems. This paper proposes a novel robust power converter control against arbitrary electric load changes for islanded micro-grid topology. First, we provide a state-space representation of our micro-grid model including power converter and electric load circuit. And then a state feedback control method is applied to construct a nominal control framework. Next, we propose a robust adaptive control law to enhance a control performance against unexpected load perturbation. In addition, we analytically investigate a passivity property for the micro-grid model and carry out computer simulation to demonstrate superiority and reliability of the proposed control methodology.

We propose a control law in discrete time domain of the bilateral feedback teleoperation system using neural network and the reference model type of adaptive control. Different from traditional teleoperation systems, the transmission time delay irregularly changes. The proposed control method controls master and slave systems through identification of master and slave models using neural networks.
