Accurate load modeling is essential for power system static and dynamic analysis. By the nature of the problem of parameter estimation for power system load modeling using actual measurements, multiple local optimal solutions may exist and local methods can be trapped in a local optimal solution giving possibly poor performance. In this paper, Trust-Tech, a novel methodology for global optimization, is applied to tackle the multiple local optimal solutions issue in measurement-based power system load modeling. Multiple sets of parameter values of a composite load model are obtained using Trust-Tech in a deterministic manner. Numerical studies indicate that Trust-Tech along with conventional local methods can be successfully applied to power system load model parameter estimation in measurement-based approaches.

본 논문에서는 이중 모드로 동작하면서 기존의 Sign-Godard 알고리듬과 반경지향 알고리듬의 장점을 결합하는 새로운 자력 등화 알고리듬을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리듬은 Sign-Godard 알고리듬의 좋은 초기 수렴성과 반경지향 알고리듬의 수렴 후 작은 잔류오차 특성을 동시에 가진다. 국부 수렴 현상과 위상차는 고차 통계치를 이용하여 보정하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과 제안한 알고리듬은 기존의 알고리듬보다 빠른 수렴 속도와 더불어 수렴 후에 남아 있는 잔류 오차가 작은 좋은 특징을 보여 준다.

This paper studies the application of a fuzzy-ARTMAP neural network to digital communications channel equalization. This approach provides new solutions for solving the problems, such as complexity and long training, which found when implementing the previously developed neural-basis equalizers. The proposed fuzzy-ARTMAP equalizer is fast and easy to train and includes capabilities not found in other neural network approaches; a small number of parameters, no requirements for the choice of initial weights, automatic increase of hidden units, no risk of getting trapped in local minima, and the capability of adding new data without retraining previously trained data. In simulation studies, binary signals were generated at random in a linear channel with Gaussian noise. The performance of the proposed equalizer is compared with other neural net basis equalizers, specifically MLP and RBF equalizers.

For real-world clustering tasks, the input data is typically not easily separable due to the highly complex data structure or when clusters vary in size, density and shape. Kernel-based clustering has proven to be an effective approach to partition such data. In this paper, we provide an overview of several fuzzy kernel clustering algorithms. We focus on methods that optimize an fuzzy C-mean-type objective function. We highlight the advantages and disadvantages of each method. In addition to the completely unsupervised algorithms, we also provide an overview of some semi-supervised fuzzy kernel clustering algorithms. These algorithms use partial supervision information to guide the optimization process and avoid local minima. We also provide an overview of the different approaches that have been used to extend kernel clustering to handle very large data sets.

In this paper, a new hierarchical motion estimation (ME) scheme using the wavelet transformed multi-resolution image layers is proposed. While the coarse-to-fine (CtF) ME, used in previously proposed coding schemes, can provide a better estimate at the coarsest resolution, it is difficult to accurately track motion at finer resolution. On the other hand, in fine-to-coarse (FtC) ME, it can solves this local minima problem by estimating motion track at the finest subband and propagating the motion vector (MV) to coarser subband. But this method causes to higher computational overhead. This paper proposes a new method for reducing the computational overhead of fine-to-coarse rnulti-resolution motion estimation (MRME) at the finest resolution level by searching for the region to consider motion vectors of the coarsest resolution subband.

벤젠이온-물 복합체[$C_6H_6^+-(H_2O)_n$(n=1-5)]의 여러 가능한 구조를 예측하고 다양한 양자역학적 이론 수준(ab initio, DFT 등)에서 분자구조를 최적화 하였으며, 조화 진동주파수를 계산하여 IR 스펙트럼을 예측하였다. $C_6H_6^+-(H_2O)$에 대하여 보다 정확한 결합에너지를 구하기 위하여 MP2 수준에서 분자구조를 최적화하여 결합에너지 계산을 하여 B3LYP 계산 결과와 비교하였으며, 영점 진동에너지(zero-point vibrational energy)를 보정하여 실험값과 비교하였다. $C_6H_6^+-(H_2O)$에 대한 결합에너지는 MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ 이론수준에서 8.6 kcal/mol로 계산되어 최근의 실험결과($8.5{\pm}1$ kcal/mol)와 매우 잘 일치하는 것으로 나타났다.

We studied the relative stability and atomic structure of five $C_{20}^{2+}$ isomers obtained by two-electron ionization of a $C_{20}$ cage (the smallest fullerene). All the isomers are bond-stretch isomers, i.e., they differ in bond length. In particular, in one of the isomers with Ih symmetry, all the bond lengths are equal. Full geometry optimizations of the dipositive ion $C_{20}^{2+}$ were performed using the hybrid density functional (B3LYP/6-31G(d)) methods. All isomers were found to be true minima by frequency analysis at the level of B3LYP/6-31G(d) under the reinforced tight convergence criterion and a pruned (99,590) grid. The zero-point correction energy for the cage bond-stretch isomers was in the increasing order $D_{2h}<C_{2h}<C_2<T_h<I_h$ of $C_{20}^{2+}$. The energy difference among the isomers of cage dipositive ions was less than that among neutral cage isomers. Our results suggest that these isomers show bond-stretch isomerism and that they have an identical spin state and an identical potential energy curve. Although the predominant electronic configurations of the isomers are similar, the frontier orbital characteristics are different, implying that we could anticipate an entirely different set of characteristic chemical reactions for each type of HOMO and LUMO.

Photoelectric observations of the neglected eclipsing binary VZ Cep were made on four night during the observing season of 1984 at Sobaeksan Astronomy Observatory. The UBV light curves were secured incompletely with the gap in 0.35-0.75 phases. From the observations three times of minimum lights were determined in three band-passes, which formed one weighted minimum epoch (JD Hel 2446009.0453). With our observations, and improved light elements for VZ Cep is determined using all the photoelectric and CCD times of minimum lights published so far. The (O-C) resid-uals calculated with our light elements show small varying scatters which cannot be negligible. From the analyses of all the times of minima with the Scargle’s(1982)period-searching and a curve fitting methods, we found possible periodic oscillations of the (O-C) residuals with the period of 1. y26 and the amplitude of 0.d0032. These results, however, have to be considered as a preliminary values until complete analysis for the minimum lights of VZ Cep with enough observational data. Future observations of this binary system are urgently prompted.

The geometrical parameters, vibrational frequencies, and relative energies of H$_2$(A$_{n+1}$X$_{2n}$)H$_2$ (A=C or Si, X=O or S, n = 1-2) oligomers have been investigated using high level ab initio quantum mechanical techniques with large basis sets. The equilibrium geometries have been optimized at the self-consistent field (SCF), the coupled cluster with single and double excitation (CCSD), and the CCSD with connected triple excitations [CCSD(T)] levels of theory. The highest level of theory employed in this study is cc-pVTZ CCSD(T). Harmonic vibrational frequencies and IR intensities are also determined at the SCF level of theory with various basis sets and confirm that all the optimized geometries are true minima. Also zero-point vibrational energies have been considered to predict the dimerization and the relative energies.

We report here the results on N-acetyl-N'-methylamide of alanine (Ac-Ala-NHMe) calculated using the ab initio molecular orbital method with the self-consistent reaction field (SCRF) theory at the HF level with the 6-3l+G(d) basis set to investigate the conformational preference of alanine depending on the backbone torsion angles $\square$ and$\square$ in the gas phase, chloroform, and water. There are seven local minima (LM) in the gas phase and two additional LM are found in chloroform and water. These two additional LM A (an $\square$-helical structure) and F (a polyproline structure) are stabilized only in solutions. In the gas phase, the lowest LM is the conformation C with a C$\sub$7/ intramolecular hydrogen bond and the relative conformational energies range from 0.3 to 6.0 ㎉/mol. In chloroform, the lowest LM is the conformation E (an extended structure) and the relative conformational energies range from 0.7 to 4.9 ㎉/mol. In particular, we identified 14 possible transition states connecting between seven LM in the gas phase. The search for transition states probable in chloroform and water is now in progress.
