Optical flow is important not only for determining velocity and trajectory of the object but also for image segmentation and 3D information. The gradient-based method is mostly used to compute optical flow form image sequences, but it accomanies smoothing effect of velocity vectors. In this paper, an enhanced algorithm for computing optical flow using scalar edge to restrict is also applied to reduce errors both around motion boundary and in the occlusion region.

The HMM-Net is an architecture for a neural network that implements a hidden markov model (HMM). The architecture is developed for the purpose of combining the discriminant power of neural networks with the time-domain modeling capability of HMMs. Criteria used for learning HMM-Net classifiers are maximum likelihood(ML) and minimization of mean squared error(MMSE). In this paper we propose an efficient learning method of HMM_Net classifiers using a ML-MMSE hybrid criterion and report the results of an experimental study comparing the performance of HMM_Net classifiers trained by the gradient descent algorithm with the above criteria. Experimental results for the isolated numeric digits from /0/ to /9/ show that the performance of the proposed method is better than the others in the repects of learning and recognition rates.

This paper presents a super-resolution reconstruction method based on sparse representation for two-dimensional bar code images. Considering the features of two-dimensional bar code images, Kirsch and LBP (local binary pattern) operators are used to extract the edge gradient and texture features. Feature extraction is constituted based on these two features and additional two second-order derivatives. By joint dictionary learning of the low-resolution and high-resolution image patch pairs, the sparse representation of corresponding patches is the same. In addition, the global constraint is exerted on the initial estimation of high-resolution image which makes the reconstructed result closer to the real one. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm for two-dimensional bar code images by comparing with other reconstruction algorithms.

An image enhancement method using modified anisotropic diffusion filter is proposed in this paper. It employs sensor noise estimation and scale space methods based on the minimum reliable scale. Then the anisotropic diffusion filter is modified by the calculated critical value function and local gradient. Through simulation, it is verified that the proposed algorithm has the capability of little or no noise amplification in homogenous region as well as superior edge enhancement.

A robustness analysis for model reference adaptive control(MRAC) system with plant uncertainty is discussed in this paper. The adaptive control system is designed under assumptions that the controlled plant is represented by a lst order nominal model and that the system is drived by a constant reference signal. When using general gradient method(GGM), it is shown that unmodelled dynamics in plant model can cause the instability of the overall control loop during the adaptation process. However, as the algorithm of least square method(LSM) is introduced, the global stability of the system can be hold. And it is also given that the boundedness of adjustable parameters may be verified using the concept of an equilibrium point analysis.

This paper presents the characteristic analysis and the optimal design of a permanent magnetic actuator (PMA) for a vacuum circuit breaker (VCB) using a two-dimensional finite element analysis. The purpose of this research about a PMA is to minimize the breaking time and the volume of the permanent magnet within the limits of the holding force and maximum current in the coil. The conjugate gradient method is used as an optimization algorithm. The node moving technique is iteratively implemented until the design variables of the PMA are optimized. In this paper, the optimal design of a PMA is accomplished to improve the conventional design methods.

In this paper, we propose a new fuzzy model identification method that can yield a successful fuzzy rule base for fundamental approximations. The method in this paper uses a set of input-output data and is based on a hybrid messy genetic algorithm (mGA) with a fine-tuning scheme. The mGA processes variable-length strings, while standard GAs work with a fixed-length coding scheme. For successfully identifying a complex nonlinear system, we first use the mGA, which coarsely optimizes the structure and the parameters of the fuzzy inference system, and then the gradient descent method which tine tunes the identified fuzzy model. In order to demonstrate the superiority and efficiency of the proposed scheme, we finally show its application to a nonlinear approximation.

When dealing with a controller design in the two parameter configuration, there are some situations when neither a known pseudo inverse technique nor the inverse method can be applicable. In this case, we propose two methods of designing a controller by the gradient algorithm and the new pseudo inverse method such that the designed closed loop polynomial may be equal to or nearly equal to the desired closed loop polynomial. We compare the proposed methods with the known methods. We use the Manabe standard form as a desired closed loop characteristic polynomial.

This paper deals with the design of a reduced-order stabilizing controller for the linear system. The coupled lineal matrix inequality (LMI) problem subject to a rank condition is solved by a sequential semidefinite programming (SDP) approach. The nonconvex rank constraint is incorporated into a strictly linear penalty function, and the computation of the gradient and Hessian function for the Newton method is not required. The penalty factor and related term are updated iteratively. Therefore the overall procedure leads to a successive LMI relaxation method. Extensive numerical experiments illustrate the proposed algorithm.
