This paper proposes a quasi-optimal linear DOA (Direction-of-Arrival) estimator which is necessary for the development of a real-time robot auditory system tracking moving acoustic source. It is well known that the use of conventional nonlinear filtering schemes may result in the severe performance degradation of DOA estimation and not be preferable for real-time implementation. These are mainly due to the inherent nonlinearity of the acoustic signal model used for DOA estimation. This motivates us to consider a new uncertain linear acoustic signal model based on the linear prediction relation of a noisy sinusoid. Using the suggested measurement model, it is shown that the resultant DOA estimation problem is cast into the NCRKF (Non-Conservative Robust Kalman Filtering) problem [12]. NCRKF-based DOA estimator provides reliable DOA estimates of a fast moving acoustic source in spite of using the noise-corrupted measurement matrix in the filter recursion and, as well, it is suitable for real-time implementation because of its linear recursive filter structure. The computational efficiency and DOA estimation performance of the proposed method are evaluated through the computer simulations.

In this paper, we propose a TSK(Takagi-Sugeno-Kang)-type fuzzy classifier using PCA(Principal Component Analysis), FCM(Fuzzy c-Means) clustering, ANFIS(Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System) and hybrid GA(Genetic Algorithm). First, input data is transformed to reduce correlation among the data components by PCA. FCM clustering is applied to obtain a initial TSK-type fuzzy classifier. Parameter identification is performed by AGA(Adaptive GA) and RLSE(Recursive Least Square Estimate). Finally, we applied the proposed method to Iris data classificationl problems and obtained a better performance than previous works.

This paper proposes a frequency transfer function synthesis for approximating a high-order model with resonance to a low-order model in the frequency domain. The presented model approximation method is based on minimizing the error function weighted by the numerator polynomial of approximated models, which is used of the RLS(Recursive Least Square) technique to estimate the coefficient vector of approximated models. The proposed method provides better fitting in a low frequency and peak resonance. And an example is given to illustrate feasibilities of the suggested schemes.

In this paper, we propose a novel method to improve the performance of the improved minima controlled recursive averaging (IMCRA) in non-stationary noisy environment. The conventional IMCRA algorithm efficiently estimate the noise power by averaging past spectral power values based on a smoothing parameter that is adjusted by the signal presence probability in frequency subbands. Since the minimum of smoothing parameter is defined as 0.85, it is difficult to obtain the robust estimates of the noise power in non-stationary noisy environments that is rapidly changed the spectral characteristics such as babble noise. For this reason, we proposed the modified IMCRA, which adaptively estimate and updata the noise power according to the noise type classified by the Gaussian mixture model (GMM). The performances of the proposed method are evaluated by perceptual evaluation of speech quality (PESQ) and composite measure under various environments and better results compared with the conventional method are obtained.

We discuss the implementation of a compiler for an imperative programming language, using monad in Haskell. This compiler involves a recursive-descent parser conducting nondeterministic parsing, in which backtracking occurs to try with other rules when the application of a production rule fails to parse an input string. Haskell has some strong facilities for parsing. Its algebraic types represent abstract syntax trees in a smooth way, and program codes by monad parsing are so concise that they are highly readable and code size is reduced significantly, comparing with other languages. We also deal with the runtime environment of the assembler and code generation whose target is the Stack-Assembly language based on a stack machine.

In this paper, we propose a correlation-based subspace estimation technique, which is called square-root forward/backward correlation-based projection approximation subspace tracking(SRFB-COPAST). The SRFB-COPAST utilizes the forward and backward correlation matrix as well as square-root recursive matrix update in projection approximation approach to develop the subspace tracking algorithm. With the projection approximation, the square-root recursive FB-COPAST is presented. The proposed algorithm has the better performance than the recently developed COPAST method.

Many structural optimization problems are solved by numerical algorithms since these are complicated and nonlinear. To provide a wider base and popular it to structual design optimization, reliable, accurate and superlinearly convergent nonlinear programming algorithm with active-set strategy have been developed. One of these is RQP(recursive quadratic programming method). This algorithm has several parameters and its performance is influenced by variations of these key parameters. Therefore, an RQP algorithm is selected to enhance its numerical performances by choosing proper parameters. The paper persents these influences on its numerical performance. For comparison of performances, a structural design software for minimum weight of truss subjected to displacement, stress, and lower and upper bounds on design variables is also implemented.

혈관에 흐르는 혈류 속도의 측정은 혈압 및 심박수와 관련된 혈류의 역학적 변화를 관찰하는 데 있어서 주로 사용되는 방법 중의 하나이다. 이 혈류 속도는 일반적으로 도플러 효과에 의하여 주파수가 변화하는 현상을 이용하여 추정하게 된다. 그런데 기존의 주파수 추정 방법들은 시불변 시스템을 가정하고 있지만 실제 혈관 속은 혈구가 일정하지 않은 속도를 갖는 시변 시스템이라 할 수 있기 때문에 이러한 시변 특성이 강한 경우 기존의 방법을 이용하게 되면 그 성능이 저하되는 경향을 보인다. 또 피시험자의 몸 상태에 따라서 서로 다른 주파수 변화 추이를 보이므로 하나의 고정 변수로써 최적화된 성능을 기대하기도 어렵다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 시변 시스템에서 좋은 성능을 갖는 가변 망각 인자(variable forgetting factor, VFF)를 사용한 순환적인 완전 최소 자승법(recursive total least squares, RTLS) 기법을 이용한 주파수 추정 방법을 제안한다. RTLS란 TLS 기법을 순차적으로 계산하는 방법으로 시변 적응력을 향상시키는 방법이다. 또한 이 기법에 가변 망각 인자(VFF)를 적용시키는 것은 시변 시스템에서 외부적인 변화에 대하여 좀더 효율적으로 대응할 수 있기 위함이다. 기존의 방법과 성능 비교를 위하여 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 하였으며 그 결과 시변 시스템에서 본 논문에서 제안한 VFF를 이 용한 RTLS 기법이 보다 향상된 성능을 가지고 있음을 확인 할 수 있었다.

This paper describes development of 4 Wheel Drive (4WD) Electric Vehicle (EV) based driving control algorithm for severe driving situation such as icy road or disturbance. The proposed control algorithm consists three parts : a supervisory controller, an upper-level controller and optimal torque vectoring controller. The supervisory controller determines desired dynamics with cornering stiffness estimator using recursive least square. The upper-level controller determines longitudinal force and yaw moment using sliding mode control. The yaw moment, particularly, is calculated by integration of a side-slip angle and yaw rate for the performance and robustness benefits. The optimal torque vectoring controller determines the optimal torques each wheel using control allocation method. The numerical simulation studies have been conducted to evaluated the proposed driving control algorithm. It has been shown from simulation studies that vehicle maneuverability and lateral stability performance can be significantly improved by the proposed driving controller in severe driving situations.

Adaptive algorithms based on the criterion of zero-error probability (ZEP) have robustness to impulsive noise and their decision feedback (DF) versions are known to compensate effectively for severe multipath channel distortions. However the ZEP-DF algorithm computes several summation operations at each iteration time for each filter section and this plays an obstacle role in practical implementation. In this paper, the ZEP-DF with recursive gradient estimation (RGE) method is proposed and shown to reduce the computational burden of O(N) to a constant which is independent of the sample size N. Also the weight update of the initial state and the steady state is a continuous process without bringing about any propagation of gradient estimation error in DF structure.
