This paper proposes an accurate and cost-effective COA defuzzifier of fuzzy logic controller (FLC). The accuracy of the proposed COA defuzzifier is obtained by involving both membership values and spans of membership functions in calculating a crisp value. The cost-effectiveness of the proposed COA defuzzifier is obtained by replacing the division in the COA defuzzifier by finding an equilibrium point of both the left and right moments. The proposed COA defuzzifier has two disadvantages that it ncreases the hardware complexity due to the additional multipliers and it takes a lot of computation time to find the moment equilibrium point. The first disadvantage is overcome by replacing the multipliers with the stochastic AND operations. The second disadvantage is alleviated by using a coarse-to-fine searching algorithm that accelerates the finding of moment equilibrium point. Application of the proposed COA defuzzifier to the truck backer-upper control problem is performed in the VHDL simulation and the control accuracy of the proposed COA defuzzifier is compared with that of the conventional COA defuzzifier in terms of average tracing distance.

Biometrics are getting more and more attention in recent years for security and other concerns. So far, only fingerprint recognition has seen limited success for on-line security check, since other biometrics verification and identification systems require more complicated and expensive acquisition interfaces and recognition processes. Hand-Geometry can be used for biometric verification and identification because of its acquisition convenience and good performance for verification and identification performance. It could also be a good candidate for online checks. Therefore, this paper proposes a Hand-Geometry recognition system based on geometrical features of hand. From anatomical point of view, human hand can be characterized by its length, width, thickness, geometrical composition, shapes of the palm, and shape and geometry of the fingers. This paper proposes thirty relevant features for a Hand-Geometry recognition system. This system presents verification results based on hand measurements of 20 individuals. The verification process has been tested on a size of $320{\times}240$ image, and result of the verification process have hit rate of 95% and FAR of 0.020.

The main goal of existing mobile robot system was a complete autonomous navigation and the vision information was just used as an assistant way such as monitoring For this reason, the researches have been going towards sophistication of autonomousness gradually and the production costs also has been risen. However, it is also important to control remotely an inexpensive mobile robot system which has no intelligence at all. Such systems may be much more effective than fully autonomous systems in practice. Visual information from a simple camera and distance information from ultrasonic sensors are used for this system. Collision avoidance becomes the most important problem for this system. In this paper, we developed a force feedback joystick to control the robot system remotely with collision avoiding capability. Fuzzy logic is used for the algorithm in order to implement the expert s knowledge intelligently. Some experimental results show the force feedback joystick werks very well.

This paper proposes a control algorithm for quadruped robots moving on irregularly sloped uneven surfaces. Since the body balance of a quadruped robot is controlled by the forces acting on its feet during touchdown, the ground reaction force (GRF) is controlled for stable running. The desired GRF for each foot is generated on the basis of the desired galloping pattern; this GRF is then compared with the actual contact force. The difference between the two forces is used to modify the foot trajectory. The desired force is realized by considering a combination of the rate change of the angular and linear momenta at flight. Then, the amplitude of the GRF to be applied at each foot in order to achieve the desired linear and angular momenta is determined by fuzzy logic. Dynamic simulations of galloping motion were performed using RecurDyn; these simulations show that the proposed control method can be used to achieve stable galloping for a quadruped robot on irregularly sloped uneven surfaces.

Based on the super elastic properties of the shape memory alloy (SMA) and the inverse piezoelectric effect of piezoelectric (PZT) ceramics, a kind of hybrid semi-active control device was designed and made, its mechanical properties test was done under different frequency and different voltage. The local search ability of genetic algorithm is poor, which would fall into the defect of prematurity easily. A kind of adaptive immune memory cloning algorithm(AIMCA) was proposed based on the simulation of clone selection and immune memory process. It can adjust the mutation probability and clone scale adaptively through the way of introducing memory cell and antibody incentive degrees. And performance indicator based on the modal controllable degree was taken as antigen-antibody affinity function, the optimization analysis of damper layout in a space truss structure was done. The structural seismic response was analyzed by applying the neural network prediction model and T-S fuzzy logic. Results show that SMA and PZT friction composite damper has a good energy dissipation capacity and stable performance, the bigger voltage, the better energy dissipation ability. Compared with genetic algorithm, the adaptive immune memory clone algorithm overcomes the problem of prematurity effectively. Besides, it has stronger global searching ability, better population diversity and faster convergence speed, makes the damper has a better arrangement position in structural dampers optimization leading to the better damping effect.

The seismic response reduction capacity of a smart mid-story isolation system was investigated using the RNN model in this study. For this purpose, an RNN model was developed to make a dynamic response prediction of building structures subjected to seismic loads. An existing tall building with a mid-story isolation system was selected as an example structure for realistic research. A smart mid-story isolation system was comprised of an MR damper instead of existing lead dampers. The RNN model predicted the seismic responses accurately compared to those of the FEM model. The simulation time of the RNN model can be reduced significantly compared to the FEM model. After the numerical simulations, the smart mid-story isolation system could effectively reduce the seismic responses of the existing building compared to the conventional mid-story isolation system.

비정상 행위에 대한 true/false 방식의 공격 탐지 및 대응방법은 높은 오탐지율(false-positive)을 나타내기 때문에 이를 대체할 새로운 공격 탐지방법과 공격 대응방법이 연구되고 있다. 대표적인 연구로는 트래픽 제어 기술을 이용한 단계적 대응방법으로, 이 기술은 비정상 트래픽에 대해 단계적으로 대응함으로써 공격의 오탐지로 인하여 정상 서비스를 이용하는 트래픽이 차단되지 않도록 하는 기술이다. 비정상 트래픽 중 포트스캔 공격은 네트워크 기반 공격을 위해 공격대상 호스트의 서비스 포트를 찾아내는 공격으로 이 공격을 탐지하기 위해서는 일정 시간동안 특정 호스트의 특정 포트에 보내지는 패킷 수를 모니터링 하여 임계치와 비교하는 방식의 true/false 방식의 공격 탐지방법이 주로 사용되었다. 비정상 트래픽 제어 프레임워크(Abnormal Traffic Control Framework)는 true/false 방식의 공격 탐지방법을 이용하여 공격이 탐지되었을 때, 처음에는 트래픽 제어로 대응하고 같은 공격이 재차 탐지되었을때, 차단하여 기존의 true-false 방식의 공격 탐지 및 대응방법이 가지는 높은 오탐지율을 낮춘다. 하지만 포트스캔 공격의 특성상, 공격이 탐지된 후 바로 차단하지 못하였을 경우, 이미 공격자가 원하는 모든 정보를 유출하게 되는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 True/False 방식의 포트스캔 공격 탐지방법에 퍼지 로직 개념을 추가하여 공격 탐지의 정확성을 높이고 기존의 탐지방법을 이용하였을 때보다 신속한 트래픽 제어 및 차단을 할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다.

In this research, we selected the speech recognition to implement the electric wheelchair system as a method to control it by only using the speech and used DTW (Dynamic Time Warping), which is speaker-dependent and has a relatively high recognition rate among the speech recognitions. However, it has to have small memory and fast process speed performance under consideration of real-time. Thus, we introduced VQ (Vector Quantization) which is widely used as a compression algorithm of speaker-independent recognition, to secure fast recognition and small memory. However, we found that the recognition rate decreased after using VQ. To improve the recognition rate, we applied ART2 (Adaptive Reason Theory 2) algorithm as a post-process algorithm to obtain about 5% recognition rate improvement. To utilize ART2, we have to apply an error range. In case that the subtraction of the first distance from the second distance for each distance obtained to apply DTW is 20 or more, the error range is applied. Likewise, ART2 was applied and we could obtain fast process and high recognition rate. Moreover, since this system is a moving object, the system should be implemented as an embedded one. Thus, we selected TMS320C32 chip, which can process significantly many calculations relatively fast, to implement the embedded system. Considering that the memory is speech, we used 128kbyte-RAM and 64kbyte ROM to save large amount of data. In case of speech input, we used 16-bit stereo audio codec, securing relatively accurate data through high resolution capacity.

There are many application areas of wireless sensor networks, such as combat field surveillance, terrorist tracking and highway traffic monitoring. These applications collect sensed data from sensor nodes to monitor events in the territory of interest. One of the important issues in these applications is the existence of the radio-jamming zone between source nodes and the base station. Depending on the routing protocol the transmission of the sensed data may not be delivered to the base station. To solve this problem we propose a genetic algorithm based routing method for reliable transmission while considering the balanced energy depletion of the sensor nodes. The genetic algorithm finds an efficient routing path by considering the radio-jamming zone, energy consumption needed fur data transmission and average remaining energy level. The fitness function employed in genetic algorithm is implemented by applying the fuzzy logic. In simulation, our proposed method is compared with LEACH and Hierarchical PEGASIS. The simulation results show that the proposed method is efficient in both the energy consumption and success ratio of delivery.

A variety of cluster analysis techniques prerequisite to cluster objects having similar characteristics in data mining. But the clustering of those algorithms have lots of difficulties in dealing with categorical data within the databases. The imprecise handling of uncertainty within categorical data in the clustering process stems from the only algebraic logic of rough set, resulting in the degradation of stability and effectiveness. This paper proposes a information-theoretic rough entropy(RE) by taking into account the dependency of attributes and proposes a technique called min-mean-mean roughness(MMMR) for selecting clustering attribute. We analyze and compare the performance of the proposed technique with K-means, fuzzy techniques and other standard deviation roughness methods based on ZOO dataset. The results verify the better performance of the proposed approach.
