With the advancement of NLP(Natural Language Processing) models, conversational AI such as ChatGPT is becoming increasingly popular. To enhance processing speed and reduce power consumption, it is important to implement the Transformer algorithm, which forms the basis of the latest natural language processing models, in hardware. In particular, the multi-head attention and feed-forward network, which analyze the relationships between different words in a sentence through matrix multiplication, are the most computationally intensive core algorithms in the Transformer. In this paper, we propose a new variable systolic array based on the number of input words to enhance matrix multiplication speed. Quantization maintains Transformer accuracy, boosting memory efficiency and speed. For evaluation purposes, this paper verifies the clock cycles required in multi-head attention and feed-forward network and compares the performance with other multipliers.

In this paper, we design a controller using the $\mu$-synthesis method and apply it for the spring-mass system with noncollocated sensors and actuators. We assume that the values of the spring stiffness and load mass of the plant are uncertain. The plant is modeled with parametric uncertainty by using the state space equation, especially the descriptor form. The $H_\infty$ controller designed by the $\mu$-synthesis method is compared with the standard $H_\infty$ controller To compare performances of two $H_\infty$ controllers, it is assumed that both controllers were designed with same weighting functions except that the $\mu$-synthesis controller has structured uncertainties. By compared with the standard $H_\infty$ controller, we show that the designed controller has satisfactory robust performance as well as robust stability by simulations and experiments.

This paper proposes 3D graphics accelerator, especially rendering unit, for portable devices. The existing 3D architecture is not suitable for portable devices because of its huge size. To reduce the size, we use iterative architecture and fixed-point calculation. In this paper, we suggest the format of fixed-point comparing with the result images, and some special technique to control. Finally, it is implemented with FPGA and 0.25um ASIC technology respectively. The ASIC chip can execute 47.88M pixels per second. The size of ASIC chip is 4.9287mm*4.9847mm and the power consumption is 263.7mW with 50MHz operation frequency.

Smith predictor can't be applied to the time delay systems that have poles near the origin or a pure integrator or a modeling error, because of occurring the steady state error for the step disturbance. In this paper, a new Smith predictor controller for these systems is designed to eliminate the effects of the disturbance. A disturbance observer to estimate a disturbance is proposed and a new controller is designed using the estimated disturbance. As a result, the new controller can eliminate the effects of the disturbance and modeling error. The simulation results for the steam superheater and the steam pressure systems verify the efficiency of the proposed controller.

In this paper, a single-bit 3rd-order feedforward delta sigma modulator is proposed for audio applications. The proposed modulator is based on a class-C inverter for low voltage and power applications. For the high-precision requirement, the class-C inverter with regulated cascode structure increases its DC gain and acts as a low-voltage subthreshold amplifier. The proposed Class-C inverter-based modulator is designed and simulated in 180-nm CMOS process. With no performance loss and a low supply voltage compatibility, the proposed class-C inverter-based switched-capacitor modulator achieves high power efficiency. This design achieves an signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio (SNDR) of 93.9 dB, an signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 108 dB, an spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) of 102 dB, and a dynamic range (DR) of 102 dB at a signal bandwidth of 20 kHz and a sampling frequency of 4 MHz, while only using 280 μW of power consumption from a 0.8-V power supply.

본 논문은 지식의 규칙 표현을 위한 저작도구인 규칙편집기에 대하여 기술한다. 지식표현방법은 인간의 일상언어와 컴퓨터와의 표현구조를 고려하여 결정된다[2]. 이러한 지식표현방법에는 규칙, 프레임, 의미망, 그래프 등이 있다[2]. 본 논문에서는 지식을 규칙의 형태로 표현하고자 한다. 또한, 표현하고자 하는 지식의 영역은 비즈니스 도메인으로 한정한다. 비즈니스 지식이란 기업의 업무처리에 필요한 제반 지식인 업무처리 절차, 규정 등을 의미하며, 현재 대부분의 기업이 운영하는 기존 응용 시스템은 프로그램 소스의 일부분으로 비즈니스 규칙을 포함하고 있다. 기존 응용 시스템은 경영 상황 및 업무의 변경 등에 따른 비즈니스 지식의 잦은 수정 요구로 시스템의 유지 관리에 많은 비용과 수고가 필요하다. 이러한 문제점의 해결을 위하여 응용 프로그램에서 비즈니스 지식을 분리하여 관리하는 비즈니스 지식처리기술이 기업 응용 프로그램 개발에 도입되고 있다. 코드 속에서 분리된 비즈니스 지식은 규칙의 형태로 표현되고, 이들 규칙은 독립된 지식베이스에서 관리된다. 본 논문에서는 코드에서 분리된 비즈니스 지식을 규칙의 형태로 표현하기 위한 규칙편집기 개발과 개발된 편집기의 기능 및 특징에 대하여 기술한다.

We present a P-type iterative learning control(ILC) scheme for uncertain robotic systems that perform the same tasks repetitively. The proposed ILC scheme comprises a linear feedback controller consisting of position error, and a feedforward and feedback teaming controller updated by current velocity error. As the learning iteration proceeds, the joint position and velocity mrs converge uniformly to zero. By adopting the learning gain dependent on the iteration number, we present joint position and velocity error bounds which converge at the arbitrarily tuned rate, and the joint position and velocity errors converge to zero in the iteration domain within the adopted error bounds. In contrast to other existing P-type ILC schemes, the proposed ILC scheme enables analysis and tuning of the convergence rate in the iteration domain by designing properly the learning gain.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of multiphasic CT and ¹⁸F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT for the differentiation of combined hepatocellular carcinoma-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CCA) from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Materials and Methods From January 2007 to April 2016, 93 patients with pathologically confirmed HCC (n = 84) or cHCC-CCA (n = 9) underwent CT and PET/CT imaging. Contrast enhancement patterns were divided into three types based on the attenuation of the surrounding liver parenchyma: type I (early arterial enhancement with delayed washout), type II (early arterial enhancement without delayed washout), and type III (early hypovascular, infiltrative appearance, or peripheral rim enhancement). Results cHCC-CCAs (89%) had a higher PET/CT positive rate than did HCCs (61%), but the PET/CT positive rate did not differ significantly (p = 0.095). Among the 19 cases of the type II enhancement pattern, 3 (21%) of 14 HCCs and 4 (80%) of 5 cHCC-CCAs were PET/CT positive. cHCC-CCAs had a significantly higher PET/CT positive rate (p = 0.020) in the type II enhancement pattern. Conclusion The PET/CT positive rate of cHCC-CCA was significantly higher than that of HCC in lesions with a type II enhancement pattern. The ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT can be useful for the differentiation of cHCC-CCA from HCC in lesions with a type II enhancement pattern on multiphasic CT.
