In this paper, we propose a visual accessibility technique in an MPEG-21 framework. In particular, MPEG-21 visual accessibility for the colored-visual resource of a digital item is proposed to give better accessibility of color information to people with color vision deficiency (CVD). We propose an adaptation system for CVD as well as a description of CVD in MPEG-21. To verify the usefulness of the proposed method, computer simulations with CVD and color adaptation were performed. Furthermore, a statistical experiment was performed using volunteers with CVD in order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed visual accessibility technique in MPEG-21. Both the experimental and simulation results show that the proposed adaptations technique can provide better color information, particularly to people with CVD.

This paper deals with the analysis of switched reluctance motor drives for different drive circuit topologies used in automobile. So we attempt to improve the weaknesses associated with the asymmetric bridge converter in the limited internal environment of automotive application. Two kinds of c-dump converters are tested in terms of dump capacitor voltage, speed response according to the variation of advance angle and efficiency for the radiator cooling-fan drive of an automobile. They enable more economical and efficient converter topology for automobile industries. This paper describes the performance characteristics of 12V-250W-3000rpm SRM drives for automotive application. Computer simulation and experiment results are then presented to verify the performance of the two kinds of c-dump converters.

This paper presents perceptual model with a stochastic rnultiresolution characteristic that can be applied with watermark embedding in the biorthogonal wavelet domain. The perceptual model with adaptive watermarking algorithm embed at the texture and edge region for more strongly embedded watermark by the SSQ(successive subband quantization). The watermark embedding is based on the computation of a NVF(noise visibility function) that have local image properties. This method uses non-stationary Gaussian model stationary Generalized Gaussian model because watermark has noise properties. In order to determine the optimal NVF, we consider the watermark as noise. The particularities of embedding in the stationary GG model use shape parameter and variance of each subband regions in multiresolution. To estimate the shape parameter, we use a moment matching method. Non-stationary Gaussian model use the local mean and variance of each subband. The experiment results of simulation were found to be excellent invisibility and robustness. Experiments of such distortion are executed by Stirmark benchmark test.

IPA(interpattern association) model is a method of feature extraction using a neural network. Even in the case that the reference patterns are simuklar to one another, this model can recover the reference patterns effectively. However, when the pattern whose feature pixels are lost is used as input, this model can not guarantee perfect recovery of the reference pattern. It is proposed a improved interpattern association(IPA) model for the feature extraction using neural network. The improved IPA model that combines the first interconnection weight matrix of the IPA model with the second additional weight matrix is proposed here to overcome the recovery problem of the original IPA model. The results of computer simulation and optical experiment are advanced.

This paper presents a five-level PWM inverter using series and parallel connection of voltage sources. The alternative connection is done by an auxiliary circuit consisted of a switch, three diodes, and two batteries. The auxiliary circuit is located between input dc voltage source and H-bridge cell. Thanks to the auxiliary circuit, the proposed inverter synthesizes five-level output voltage in an effective way. Topologically both batteries are charged and discharged in the same rate, so it does not need to apply battery voltage balancing control method. Theoretical analysis of the proposed inverter is verified by computer-aided simulation and experiment based on a prototype of 1kW.

In this study, a method of optimal blank design using the sensitivity analysis has been proposed. To get sensitivity a well-known commercial code PAM-STAMP has been used. In order to verify this method, formings of square cup, clover shaped cup and L shaped cup have been chosen as the examples. With the predicted optimal blank both computer simulation and experiment are performed. Excellent agreements are recognized between the numerical results and the target contour shapes. Through the investigation, the proposed systematic method of optimal blank design is found to be effective in the design of the deep drawing process.

Self-tuning control algorithms for an input-amplitude constrained system are developed and implemented. Magnitude of control input for small motors is generally restricted to narrow bound due to actuator saturation. The gain-adjusted control algorithm and the bounded-gain control algorithm proposed in this study yield smoother control input variations within the magnitude constraints comparing with the existing Clarke's suboptimal control algorithm. In the gain-adjusted control algorithm, the feedforward gain is adjusted using maximum gain, while in the bounded-gain control algorithm, the feedforward gain is bounded using weighting factor. For the DC servo motor control, the system performances of the proposed algorithms are compared with those of the existing algorithm by computer simulation and experiment. It is shown that the input variations of the proposed algorithms are smoother as compared with the existing algorithm.

Miniature BLDC is widely used in industrial applications and especially medical appliances because of there character that high driving efficiency and high torque characteristic. However torque ripple of a high speed miniature BLDC is serous in switching period cue to the very electrical time constant. This paper present instant voltage and current control for torque ripple reduction of a high speed miniature BLDC. Computer simulation and experiment test for 40,000 rpm miniature BLDC show the verification of the proposed control method.

In order to simulate the ceramic filter in the state of the one-strip electrode, the theory has been analyzed and a computer program has been developed using the energy trapping effect. The ceramic filters were fabricated using the PZT-4 specimen. The necessary condition that the ceramic filter has the energy trapping effect is that the electroded portion frequency should be smaller than the unelectroded portion frequency when the wave number is zero. Each of the average differences of the resonant point and bandwidth between by the theoretical calculations and by experiment results was 5.6[%] and 3.72[%]. It is considered that the one-strip ceramic filter having a desired characteristics and the lowest difference can be fabricated easily by means of the simulation developed in this paper and the fabrication methods.
