Based on the chaos theory, a new method of presentation of speech signal has been presented in this paper. This new method can be used for pattern matching such as speaker recognition. The expressions of attractors are represented very well by the logistic maps that show the chaos phenomena. In the speaker recognition field, a speaker's vocal habit could be a very important matching parameter. The attractor configuration using change value of speech signal can be utilized to analyze the influence of voice undulations at a point on the vocal loudness scale to the next point. The attractors arranged by the method could be used in research fields of speech recognition because the attractors also contain unique information for each speaker.

This paper presents a method of recognizing high impedance fault(HIF) of electrical power systems and classifying fault patterns based on chaos attractors. Two dimensional chaos attractors are reconstructed from neutral point current waveforms. Reliable features for HIF pattern classification are obtained from the chaos attractors. Radial basis function network, trained with two types of HIF data generated by the electromagnetic transient program and measured form actual faults. The RBFN successfully classifies normal and the three types of fault patterns according to the features generated from the chaos attractors.

The present study deals with the nonlinear dynamics and stability of autonomous dissipative either imperfect potential (limit point) systems or perfect (bifurcational) non-potential ones. Through a fully nonlinear dynamic analysis, performed on two simple 2-DOF models corresponding to the classes of systems mentioned above, and with the aid of basic definitions of the theory of nonlinear dynamical systems, new important phenomena are revealed. For the first class of systems a third possibility of postbuckling dynamic response is offered, associated with a point attractor on the prebuckling primary path, while for the second one the new findings are chaos-like (most likely chaotic) motions, consecutive regions of point and periodic attractors, series of global bifurcations and point attractor response of always existing complementary equilibrium configurations, regardless of the value of the nonconservativeness parameter.

It is well known that many biological networks are very robust against various types of perturbations, but we still do not know the mechanism of robustness. In this paper, we find that there exist a number of feedback loops in a real biological network compared to randomly generated networks. Moreover, we investigate how the topological property affects network robustness. To this end, we properly define the notion of robustness based on a Boolean network model. Through extensive simulations, we show that the Boolean networks create a nearly constant number of fixed-point attractors, while they create a smaller number of limit-cycle attractors as they contain a larger number of feedback loops. In addition, we elucidate that a considerably large basin of a fixed-point attractor is generated in the networks with a large number of feedback loops. All these results imply that the existence of a large number of feedback loops in biological networks can be a critical factor for their robust behaviors.

Introducing the concept of a sequentially condensing operator in a more general framework, we give a new fixed point theorem for sequentially condensing operators in Banach spaces, with the aid of attractors.

Irregular motions of nonlinear dynamic system are the result of an intrinsic characteristics that the system have, and sometimes occur unpredictable large motion. For a ship in a regular seaway, the capsizing occur because of this unexpectable motion. So, from the safety's point of view, nonlinear ship motions should be treated carefully. In this study, stable and unstable regions are investigated firstly under the variation of a control external force. Secondly, we consider the attractors to know how ship motions of the stable region that does not undergo capsizing change. Thirdly, bifurcation diagram is considered to study the range in detail where nonlinear chaotic motions are occurred.

This paper aims to study local and global structure of holomorphic flows on $\mathbb{C}^1$. At a singular point of a holomorphic flow, we locally sector the flow into parabolic or elliptic types. By the local structure of holomorphic flows, we classify all the possible types of topologies of $\omega$-limit sets.

In this paper, we propose two kinds of chaos dimensions, the fuzzy correlation and fuzzy Lyapunov dimensions, for speaker recognition. The proposal is based on the point that chaos enables us to analyze the non-linear information contained in individual's speech signal and to obtain superior discrimination capability. We confirm that the proposed fuzzy chaos dimensions play an important role in enhancing speaker recognition ratio, by absorbing the variations of the reference and test pattern attractors. In order to evaluate the proposed fuzzy chaos dimensions, we suggest speaker recognition using the proposed dimensions. In other words, we investigate the validity of the speaker recognition parameters, by estimating the recognition error according to the discrimination error of an individual speaker from the reference pattern.

In this study, the dynamic instabilities of a nonlinear elastic system subjected to follower force are investigated. The two-degree-of-freedom double pendulum model with nonlinear geometry, cubic spring, and linear viscous damping is used for the study. The constant and periodic follower forces are considered. The chaotic nature of the system is identified using the standard methods, such as time histories, phase portraits, and Poincare maps, etc.. The responses are chaotic and unpredictable due to the sensitivity to initial conditions. The sensitivities to parameters, such as geometric initial imperfections, magnitude of follower force, and viscous damping, etc. is analysed. The strange attractors in Poincare map have the self-similar fractal geometry. Dynamic buckling loads are computed for various parameters, where the loads are changed drastically for the small change of parameters.

In this study, we investigated the dynamic stability of the system and the semi-analytical solution of the shallow arch. The governing equation for the primary symmetric mode of the arch under external load was derived and expressed simply by using parameters. The semi-analytical solution of the equation was obtained using the Taylor series and the stability of the system for the constant load was analyzed. As a result, we can classify equilibrium points by root of equilibrium equation, and classified stable, asymptotical stable and unstable resigns of equilibrium path. We observed stable points and attractors that appeared differently depending on the shape parameter h, and we can see the points where dynamic buckling occurs. Dynamic buckling of arches with initial condition did not occur in low shape parameter, and sensitive range of critical boundary was observed in low damping constants.
