The effects of high frequency noises on a perturbational inversion technique for a stratified dispersive medium are investigated in this paper. It is shown that the perturbational solution becomes unstable under high frequency noises. The physical origin of this instability is described. In order to enhance the robustness of the perturbational inverse scattering solution, a parametric inversion technique is introduced. The examples for the 2-pole and the 3-pole reflection coefficients are compared and contrasted, and improvement of the robustness of the solutions is shown.

Although Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have shown remarkable performance in various artificial intelligence fields, it is well known that DNNs are vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Since adversarial attacks are implemented by adding perturbations onto benign examples, increasing the sparsity of DNNs minimizes the propagation of errors to high-level layers. In this paper, unlike the traditional pruning scheme removing low magnitude weights, we eliminate high magnitude weights that are usually considered high absolute values, named 'reverse pruning' to ensure robustness. By conducting both theoretical and experimental analyses, we observe that reverse pruning ensures the robustness of DNNs. Experimental results show that our reverse pruning outperforms previous work with 29.01% in Top-1 accuracy on perturbed CIFAR-10. However, reverse pruning does not guarantee benign samples. To relax this problem, we further conducted experiments by adding a regularization term for the high magnitude weights. With adding the regularization term, we also applied conventional pruning to ensure the robustness of DNNs.

This paper addresses issues of robustness in Bayesian optimal design. We may have difficulty applying Bayesian optimal design principles because of the uncertainty of prior distribution. When there are several plausible prior distributions and the efficiency of a design depends on the unknown prior distribution, robustness with respect to misspecification of prior distribution is required. We suggest a new optimal design criterion which has relatively high efficiencies across the class of plausible prior distributions. The criterion is applied to the problem of estimating the turning point of a quadratic regression, and both analytic and numerical results are shown to demonstrate its robustness.

Robustness, payload, and imperceptibility of audio watermarking algorithms are contradictory design issues with high-level security of the watermark. In this study, the major issue in achieving high payload along with adequate robustness against challenging signal-processing attacks is addressed. Moreover, a security code has been strategically used for secure transmission of data, providing tamper detection at the receiver end. The high watermark payload in this work has been achieved by using the complementary features of third-level detailed coefficients of discrete wavelet transform where the human auditory system is not sensitive to alterations in the audio signal. To counter the watermark loss under challenging attacks at high payload, Daubechies wavelets that have an orthogonal property and provide smoother frequencies have been used, which can protect the data from loss under signal-processing attacks. Experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm has demonstrated adequate robustness against signal processing attacks at 4,884.1 bps. Among the evaluators, 87% have rated the proposed algorithm to be remarkable in terms of transparency.

The disturbance observer (DOB) has been widely utilized fer high precision and high speed motion control application. However, it still lacks the analysis for the robustness brought by using DOB. This paper summarizes six guidelines for the design of DOB taking into account the robustness and control performance in case of the second order system. For effectiveness of the proposed guideline, the actual implementation and experimental results of the DOB is compared in the Optical Disk Drive(ODD) servo system. In the DVD player and DVD-ROM drive, the guidelines of DOB are useful, and the disturbance rejection performance is improved under the DOB system.

This paper is proposed genetic algorithm tuning(GAT) control)or for high performance of induction motor drive. We employed GA to the classical PI controller. The approach having ability for global optimization and with good robustness, is expected to overcome some weakness of conventional approaches and to be more acceptable for industrial practices. The control performance of the GAT PI controller is evaluated by analysis for various operating conditions. The results of experiment prove that the proposed control system has strong high performance and robustness to parameter variation, and steady-state accuracy and transient response.

Electrostatic discharge has been considered as a major reliability problem in the semiconductor industry. ESD reliability is an important issue for these products. Therefore, each I/O (Input/Output) PAD must be designed with a protection circuitry that creates a low impedance discharge path for ESD current. This paper presents a novel Lateral Insulated Gate Bipolar (LIGBT)-based ESD protection circuit with latch-up immunity and high robustness. The proposed circuit is fabricated by using 0.18 um BCD (bipolar-CMOS-DMOS) process. Also, TLP (transmission line pulse) I-V characteristic of proposed circuit is measured. In the result, the proposed ESD protection circuit has latch-up immunity and high robustness. These characteristics permit the proposed circuit to apply to power clamp circuit. Consequently, the proposed LIGBT-based ESD protection circuit with a latch-up immune characteristic can be applied to analog integrated circuits.

The mobile tole-cardiology system is the new research area that support an ubiquitous health care based on mobile telecommunication networks. Although there are many researches presenting the modeling concepts of a GSM-based mobile telemedical system, practical application needs to be considered both compression performance and error corruption in the mobile environment. This paper evaluates three wavelet ECG compression algorithms over CDMA networks. The three selected methods are Rajoub using EPE thresholding, Embedded Zerotree Wavelet(EZW) and Wavelet transform Higher Order Statistics Coding(WHOSC) with linear prediction. All methodologies protected more significant information using Forward Error Correction coding and measured not only compression performance in noise-free but also error robustness and delay profile in CDMA environment. In addition, from the field test we analyzed the PRD for movement speed and the features of CDMA 1X. The test results show that Rajoub has low robustness over high error attack and EZW contributes to more efficient exploitation in variable bandwidth and high error. WHOSC has high robustness in overall BER but loses performance about particular abnormal ECG.

LQ-servo design procedure introduced by Athans is a method using a partial states feedback and an output feedback in order to improve the poor performance robustness of the LQR as well as to maintain its stability robustness. Although the method guarantees good stability robustness, it is not effective in performance robustness as it does not match the singular value at low or high frequencies of the transfer matrix obtained by breaking at the plant output. This paper intends propose of a new method, using the limited behaviour of the control gain introduced by Kwakernaak and Sivan, in order to improve it does it refer to controlga introduced by kwakernaak or the new metho Anblguouls.

This paper analyzes the robustness of the network based on the centrality of vertices in the graph. In this paper, a random graph is generated and a modified graph is constructed by adding or removing vertices or edges in the generated random graph. And then we analyze the robustness of the graph by observing changes in the centrality of the random graph and the modified graph. In the process modifying a graph, we changes some parts of the graph, which has high values of centralities, not in the whole. We study how these additional changes affect the robustness of the graph when changes occurring a group that has higher centralities than in the whole.
