A new control algorithm using the VSS theory is developed for accurate trajectory control of robot manipulators. This paper focuses on the implementation of VSS controller with smoothing laws in the design of effective tracking control for robotic arms. The VSS controller for multi-linkage robot arm is realized using balance condition and its simplification which possesses powerful smoothing capability to reduce or even remove undesirable chattering and meanwhile keep the robust characteristic to reject system uncertainties. The design principle of selecting different smoothing methods, which aims at achieving trade-off between smoothing and robust behaviors while considering the actual system constraints, is also given and further confirmed through experimental results.

This paper addresses a novel noise-compensation scheme to solve the mismatch problem between training and testing condition for the automatic speech recognition (ASR) system, specifically in car environment. The conventional spectral subtraction schemes rely on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) such that attenuation is imposed on that part of the spectrum that appears to have low SNR, and accentuation is made on that part of high SNR. However, these schemes are based on the postulation that the power spectrum of noise is in general at the lower level in magnitude than that of speech. Therefore, while such postulation is adequate for high SNR environment, it is grossly inadequate for low SNR scenarios such as that of car environment. This paper proposes an efficient spectral subtraction scheme focused specifically to low SNR noisy environment by extracting harmonics distinctively in speech spectrum. Representative experiments confirm the superior performance of the proposed method over conventional methods. The experiments are conducted using car noise-corrupted utterances of Aurora2 corpus.

This paper deals with a robust mixed ${H_2}/{H_{\infty}}$ filter design problem for a nonlinear dynamic system modeled as a T-S fuzzy system. Integral quadratic constraints are used to describe various kinds of uncertainties of the plant. A sufficient condition for solvability is given in terms of linear matrix inequality problem which can be efficiently solved using a convex optimization technique. In order to demonstrate the Proposed method, a numerical design example is provided.

Slow movement of snail can be a benefit since it means less speed of tracking is required to get accurate movement track, but in the other side it is difficult to extract the object because the snail is almost as static as the background. In this paper, we present a technique to track the snail by using one of its common characteristic, dark color of its shell. The technique needs to be robust to illumination change since the experiment is usually to observe the movement of snail both at bright and dim condition. Snail position coordinate in 3D space is calculated using orthogonal stereo vision which combines the information from two images taken from cameras at the top and in front of the aquarium. Experimental results show this technique does not need prior background image extraction and robust to gradual or sudden illumination change.

To improve the damping of all poorly damped oscillation modes, a control strategy of Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) based on energy method is presented in this Paper As a synchronous voltage-sourced inverter, SSSC is used to provide controllable series compensation. SSSC can provide controllable compensating voltage over an identical capacitive and inductive range. The damping effect of control strategy based on energy function is robustness with respect to loading condition, fault location and network configuration. Furthermore, the control inputs are based on local signals. In two area system, the effect of damping inter-area mode oscillation is demonstrated by the robust control strategy of SSSC.

In this paper, we propose the new algorithms of watermarking that utilize the characteristics of color images for solving the trade-off problem between the image quality and the robustness. Since the human visual characteristics of each RGB channel are different, we can gain more robust watermarking on the condition of the same image degradation.

The paper presents a design method of dynamic positioning control system for floating platform with rotatable and retractable thruster using $H_{\infty}$control technique. The norm band of uncertaintyis captured by multiplicative perturbation between nominalmodel and reduced order model. A controller robust to theuncertainty is designed applying $H_{\infty}$synthesis. The control law satisfying robust stability and nominal performance condition is determined through the mixed sensitivity approach. The evaluation for the resultant controller obtained by $H_{\infty}$synthesis is done through simulations of the closed loop system. The results of $H_{\infty}$synthesis are compared to those of the traditional LQ synthesis method. method.

In this paper, we get a reduced order controller in $H^{\infty}$ mixed sensitivity problem with weighting functions. For this purpose, we define frequency weighted coprime factor of plant in $H^{\infty}$ mixed sensitivity problem and reduce the coprime factor using the frequency weighted balanced truncation technique. The we design the controller for plant with reduced order coprime factor using J-lossless coprime factorization technique. Using this approach, we can derive the robust stability condition and achieve good performance preservation in the closed loop system with reduced order controller. And it behaves well in both stable plant and unstable plant.t.

This note is concerned with a robust sliding mode control(SMC) for a class of unmatched uncertain system with severe commensurate state time delay. The suggested method is extended to the control of severe state time delay systems with unmatched uncertainties except the matched input matrix uncertainty. A transformed sliding surface is proposed and a stabilizing control input is suggested. The closed loop stability together with the existence condition of the sliding mode on the proposed sliding surface is investigated through one Lemma and two Theorems by using the Lyapunov direct method with the concept of the control Lyapunov function instead of complex Lyapunov-Kravoskii functionals. Through an illustrative example and simulation study, the usefulness of the main results is verified.

Since the influence coefficients method in balancing of rotors is developed with the basement of not the principle of rotor system dynamics, but the linear relationshop of between the measuring quantities and the unbalance quantities, field engineers can apply the method without additional understanding on the rotor dynamics. But the influence coefficients method is not robust to the measurement error. This paper proposes a new method for the two plane balancing of rigid rotor, based on the principle of rotor dynamics. And the kit for experiment is made by ourselves, and in order to measure in the same condition with it, we do a experiment three times. And then with the Response of gap sensor, the SNR(Signal and Noise) is compared and analyzed about measuring error between the influence coefficient method, and the new method, and it is proved that the new method is less robust than the influence coefficient method.
