A modified Kohonen's self-organizing feature map (SOFM) algorithm which has binary reinforcement function and a constant learning rate is proposed. In contrast to the time-varing adaptaion gain of the original Kohonen's SOFM algorithm, the proposed algorithm uses a constant adaptation gain, and adds a binary reinforcement function in order to compensate for the lowered learning ability of SOFM due to the constant learning rate. Since the proposed algorithm does not have the complicated multiplication, it's digital hardware implementation is much easier than that of the original SOFM.

The resulting stabilizing controller in this paper consists of the disturbance estimator and the gain scheduled controller. The disturbance estimator tracks the unknown external disturbance and its derivative information in the closed-loop control system using fuzzy logic based adaptation law. Moreover, the gains of the stabilizing controller are appropriately scheduled according to the estimated values. Furthermore, since the estimation law is combined with the stabilizing controller in the closed control loop, it asymptotically minimizes the estimation error. In order to conrm the usefulness of the proposed control scheme, it is applied to the magnetic suspension systems.

This paper proposes a intelligent gain and boundary layer based sliding mode control (SMC) method for robotic systems with unknown model uncertainties. For intelligent gain and boundary layer, we employ the self recurrent wavelet neural network (SRWNN) which has the properties such as a simple structure and fast convergence. In our control structure, the SRWNNs are used for estimating the width of boundary layer, uncertainty bound, and nonlinear terms of robotic systems. The adaptation laws for all parameters of SRWNNs and reconstruction error bounds are derived from the Lyapunov stability theorem, which are used for an on-line control of robotic systems with unknown uncertainties. Accordingly, the proposed method can overcome the chattering phenomena in the control effort and has the robustness regardless of unknown uncertainties. Finally, simulation results for the three-link manipulator, one of the robotic systems, are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A Nonlinear model-based Hybrid Controller (NHC) is developed which consists of the adaptive proportional-integral-feedforward (PIF) gains and variable structure controller. The controller has the robustness against modeling uncertainty and is applied to the trajectory tracking control of single-input, single-output nonlinear systems. The essence of the scheme is to divide the control into four different terms. Namely, the adaptive P-I-F gains and variable structure controller are used to accomplish the specific control actions by each terms. The robustness of the controller is guaranteed by the feedback of estimated uncertainty and the performance specification given by the adaptation of PIF gains using the second method of Lyapunov. The variable structure controller is incorporated to regulate the initial peak of the tracking error during the parameter adaptation is not settled yet. The newly developed NHC method is applied to the power tracking control of a nuclear reactor and the simulation results show great improvement in tracking performance compared with the conventional model-based control methods.

In this paper, we present hardware implemcntation of self-organizing feature map (SOFM) neural networkwith constant adaptation gain and binary reinforcement function on FPGA. Whereas a tnme-varyingadaptation gain is used in the conventional SOFM, the proposed SOFM has a time-invariant adaptationgain and adds a binary reinforcement function in order to compensate for the lowered abilityof SOFM due to the constant adaptation gain. Since the proposed algorithm has no multiplication operation.it is much easier to implement than the original SOFM. Since a unit neuron is composed of 1adde $r_tracter and 2 adders, its structure is simple, and thus the number of neurons fabricated onFPGA is expected to he large. In addition, a few control signal: ;:rp sufficient for controlling !he neurons.Experimental results show that each componeni ot thi inipiemented neural network operates correctlyand the whole system also works well.stem also works well.

In general the design methods of adaptive filter are divided into two categories, one is based upon the local parameter optimization theory and the other is based upon stability theory. Among the various design techniques, the LMS algorithm by steepest-descent method which is based upon local parameter optimization theory is used widely. In designing the adaptive filter, the most important factor is the convergence rate of the algorithm. In this paper a new algorithm is proposed to improve the convergence rate of adaptive firter compared with the commonly used LMS algorithm. The faster convergence rate is obtained by adjusting the adaptation gain of LMS algorithm. And various aspects of improvement of the adaptive filter characteristics are discussed in detail.

The study was performed to evaluate the sense of equilibrium by means of rotary chair system in middle school girls with dance learning. Control of equilibrium, which is the most important function in dancing, is maintained by vestibular, visual, and proprioceptive inputs. Experimental groups were divided into trained group with dance (experimental group, 13~14 ys, n=15) and untrained group (control group, 13~14 ys, n=15). experimental group was trained by programmed dancing for 12 weeks, 45 min/day and 5 day/week. Gain of eye movement was measured for vestibulocular reflex (VOR), visual vestibular stimulation (VVOR), optokinetic stimulation(OKN), and visual fixation (VFX). The gain of eye movement at higher than 0.08 hz was significant decrease in experimental group, and VVOR showed the similar fashion to VOR. The gain in OKN and VFX was not significant difference between experimental and control groups. These results suggest that programmed training of dancing improves control of balance by adaptation of the vestibular function, and rotary chair system would be useful to evaluate the sense of equilibrium ability.

In feedlot cattle the abrupt change of diet from roughage to a large quantity of grain for the purpose to improve production often results in increased occurrence of rumen acidosis or acute carbohydrate encouragement enterotoxemia, bloats diarrhea liver abscess and laminitis or robot disease. The common management practice to control these problem is to increase the amount of concentrates in the diet in a stepwise manner until the animals are adapted to a high-grain ration. However this practice requires at least about 3 weeks adaptation period and specially prepared adaptation rations which contain various amount of concentrates. Present experiment was undertaken in order to findout the more simple and rapid adaptation method of cattle to a high grain ration. Nineteen Korean calves aging from four to six month were fed artifical hay (Youngchoun Chuk-Hyup, Korea) which contains 10% of concentrates or alfalfa and rye grass hays for two months and randomly alloted to three experimental groups and two control groups. The experimental group-1 was inoculated by stomach tube for two days with li500 ml/day of ruminal fluid fished from Korean beef cattle that had been previously adapted to a high-energy ration. The experimental group-2 was inoculated by trocalization for two days with the same ruminal fluid. The experimental group-3 was inoculated by trocalization with 1,500 ml/day of bacterial culture which contained 2$\times $10$^{9}$/m1 of Gram-negative bacteria derived from adapted luminal fluid. The two control groups were treated with normal saline solution by the same methods. All animals were fed high-energy ration that contained 80% of grain ad libitum for 30-74 days beginning on the third of the treatment. The effect of the inoculation on the adaptation was observed clinicopathologically with the following results; All of the experimental calves inoculated with the ruminal fluid or Gram-negative bacterial culture derived from adapted cattle did not show any signs of rumen acidosis or other related diseases, while most of the control calves did show diarrhea and bloat and a calf laminitis. The average daily weight gain and feed efficiency of experimental calves were slightly improved compared with control calves. Following the feeding of high-grain rational the pH of the ruminal fluid was lowered in both the experimental and control groups. However severe acidosis with the pH of below 5.0 was observed in only a control group-2. The protozoal number in ruminal fluid was markedly decreased during the high-grain feeding in both the experimental and control calves. However the decrease was mere severe in control calves compared with the experimental calves. The activation of the protozoa were completely disappeared within nine hours at the refrigerator temperature (4"C). No significant differences in heamatological and blood chemical values between the experimental and control calves were recognized. However in one control calf which showed clinically laminitis marked elevations of serum glutamic oxaloacetate transaminase and lactic dehydrogenase activities and a decrease of serum glucose level were observed. From these results it would be concluded the intraruminal transplantation of unadapted calves with the adapted ruminal fluid from cattle previously adapted to a high-energy ration prevents disease problem associated with high-grain feeding and improve weight gain and feed efficiency.ency.

We present power(in frequency domain) and rate adaptation(in time domain) schemes in multicarrier (MC) direct-sequence code-division multiple-access(DS/CDMA) communications. Utilizing channel state information from the receiver, the adaptation schemes allocate power the user's sub-band with the largest channel gain. In the time domain, the transmission data rate is adapted for a desired transmission quality. In the case of single-user channels, a closed-form expression is derived for an optimal time domain power adaptation that minimizes the average bit error rate(BER). Channel inversion power adaptation is found to provide nearly optimal performance in this case, as the number of sub-bands or available average transmission power increase. Analysis and simulation results show the BER performance of the proposed power and rate adaptations with fixed average transmission power significantly improves the performance over the power allocation in the frequency domain only. Also, we compare the performance of the proposed power and rate adaptation schemes in MC-DS/CDMA systems with that of power and rate adapted single carrier DS/CDMA systems with RAKE receiver.
