  • The elimination of offsets such as those induced by load disturbance is a principal requirement in the control of industrial processes. In this paper we propose a self-tuning minimum variance control in the two tuypes of k-incremental and integrating form. Since the objective of control design in this paper is a generalized minimum variance control, it can be applied to nonminimum phase system. And we compare the proposed algorithm wiht that of the positional self-tuning control and show that it can also be applied to nonminimum phase system by computer simulation.

  • An estimator for a discrete nonlinear system is derived in the sense of minimum mean square error. An optimal estimator for nonlinear system is very difficult to find and it will be infinite dimensional even if it is found. It has been known that the statistical linearization technique makes it possible to obtain a finite dimensional estimator. In this paper, the procedure of its derivation using the statistical linearization technique that gives an exact mean and variance information is introduced in the sense of minimum mean square error. The derived estimator cannot be clainmed to be globally optimal estimator because it uses the Gaussian assumption to the non-Gaussian distributed nonlinear output. However, the proposed filter exhibits a better performance compared to extended Kalman filter. Simulation results of a simple example present the improvement of the proposed filter in convergent property over the extended Kalman filter.

  • In this study three log-transformed linear regression models are compared with the focus of bias correction problem. The models are the traditional simple linear regression estimator (SL), the quasi maximum likelihood estimator (QMLE) and the minimum variance unbiased estimator (MVUE). Using such models, suspended solid loads can be estimated using the discharge - suspended solid data set that has been measured by NIER Nakdong River Water Environment Laboratory. As a result, SL shows negative bias for most values of the measured discharge range. QMLE is nearly unbiased for moderate values of the measured discharge range, but shows increasingly positive bias for either large or small value of the measured discharge range. MVUE is unbiased. It is also analyzed how the estimated regression coefficient and exponent are distributed along Nakdong river main stream.

  • We define a broad class of rotation designs whose monthly sample is balanced in interview time, level of recall, and rotation group, and whose rotation scheme is time-invariant. The necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for such designs. Using these conditions, we derive a minimum variance unbiased generalized composite estimator (MVUGCE). To examine the existence of time-in-sample bias and recall bias, we also propose unbiased estimators and their variances. Numerical examples investigate the impacts of design gap, non-sampling error sources, and two types of correlations on the variance of MVUGCE.

  • A bivariate exponential distribution with a location parameter is proposed as a model for a two-component shared load system with a guarantee time. Some statistical properties of the proposed model are investigated. The maximum likelihood estimators and uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimators of the parameters, mean time to failure, and the reliability function of system are obtained with unknown guarantee time. Simulation studies are given to illustrate the results.

  • In this paper, we show that any circular density can be closely approximated by an exponential family of distributions. Therefore we propose an exponential family of distributions as a new family of circular distributions, which is absolutely suitable to model any shape of circular distributions. In this family of circular distributions, the trigonometric moments are found to be the uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimators (UMVUEs) of the parameters of distribution. Simulation result and goodness of fit test using an asymmetric real data set show usefulness of the novel circular distribution.

  • In this paper we propose the several estimators of the Lorenz curve in the Pareto distribution and obtain the bias and the mean squared error for each estimator. We compare the proposed estimators with the uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator (UMVUE) and the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) in terms of the mean squared error (MSE) through Monte Carlo methods and discuss the results.

  • The augmenting hydrologic data using a correlation procedure has been used to improve the estimates of the mean and variance at the site of interest with short record when one or more near by sites with longer records are available. The variance of the unbiased maximum likelihood estimator of $ derived by Moran based on the multivariate normal distribytion is modified into the form of Matalas and Jacobs for the biveriate normal distribution to get the critical minimum values of the multiple correlation coefficient which give the improvement for estimating the variance at the site of interest. Those values are tabulated for various lengths of short records and the number of sites.
