  • In this paper we present a novel robotic palpation method for the lump shape estimation using contact pressure distribution. Many previous researches about the robotic palpation have used a stiffness map, which is not suitable to obtain geometrical information of a lump. As a result, they require a large data set and long palpation time to estimate the lump shape. Instead of using the stiffness map, the proposed palpation method uses the difference between the normal force direction and the surface normal to detect the lump boundary and estimate its normal. The palpation trajectory is generated by the normal of the lump boundary to track the lump boundary in real-time. The proposed approach requires small data set and short palpation time for the lump shape estimation since the shape can be directly estimated from the optimally generated palpation trajectory. An experiment result shows that our method can find the lump shape accurately in real-time with small data and short time.

  • The purpose of this research was to investigate the harmony evaluation and the effects used clues on harmony perception in terms of 128 contrast coloration of male shirt and necktie by male and female students. The results are as follows. Among 128 contrast coloration stimuli, female students evaluated 42 set, male students 50 set, so proved that male's range of harmony more extensive than that of female. It is significant difference between female and male on shirt-necktie coloration; vivid red shirt-vivid green tie, dull red shirt-dark blue tie, light red shirt-dull blue tie, dark red shirt-light blue tie, light green shirt-vivid violet tie, light green shirt-light red tie, light green shirt-dull red tie. Especially, in contrast coloration, it was evaluated as harmonized coloration by both male and female as tie was dark tone on the whole.

  • The rectilinear Steiner tree problem (RSTP) is to find a minimum-length rectilinear interconnection of a set of terminals in the plane. It is well known that the solution to this problem will be the minimal spanning tree (MST) on some set Steiner points. The RSTP is known to be NP-complete. The RSTP has received a lot of attention in the literature and heuristic and optimal algorithms have been proposed, A key performance measure of the algorithm for the RSTP is the reduction rate that is achieved by the difference between the objective value of the RSTP and that of the MST without Steiner points. A hybrid evolution strategy on RSTP based upon the Prim algorithm was presented. The computational results show that the evolution strategy is better than the previously proposed other heuristic. The average reduction rate of solutions from the evolution strategy is about 11%, which is almost similar to that of optimal solutions.

  • The complete multipartite graph $K_{n(2t)}$ having n partite sets of size 2t, with $n\;{\geq}\;6$ and $t\;{\geq}\;1$, is shown to have a decomposition into gregarious 6-cycles, that is, the cycles which have at most one vertex from any particular partite set. Complete sets of differences of numbers in ${\mathbb{Z}}_n$ are used to produce starter cycles and obtain other cycles by rotating the cycles around the n-gon of the partite sets.

  • In this paper, a prediction system is proposed to control the brightness of smart street lamps by predicting the moving path through the reduction of consumption power and information of pedestrian's past moving direction while meeting the function of existing smart street lamps. The brightness of smart street lamps is adjusted by utilizing the walk tracking vector and soft hand-off characteristics obtained through the motion sensing sensor of smart street lamps. In addition, the motion vector is used to analyze and predict the pedestrian path, and the GPU is used for high-speed computation. Pedestrians were detected using adaptive Gaussian mixing, weighted difference imaging, and motion vectors, and motions of pedestrians were analyzed using the extracted motion vectors. The preprocessing process using linear interpolation is performed to improve the performance of the proposed prediction system. Fuzzy prediction system and neural network prediction system are designed in parallel to improve efficiency and rough set is used for error correction.

  • This paper proposes a fast sound source localization method using a TDOA sign-based algorithm. We present an L-shaped microphone set-up which creates four major regions in the range of $0^{\circ}{\sim}360^{\circ}$ by the intersection of the positive and negative regions of the individual microphone pairs. Then, we make an initial source region prediction based on the signs of two TDOA estimates before computing the azimuth value. Also, we apply a threshold and angle comparison to tackle the existing front-back confusion problem. Our experimental results show that the proposed method is comparable in accuracy to previous three microphone array methods; however, it takes a shorter computation time because we compute only two TDOA values.

  • The Euclidean steiner tree problem (ESTP) is to find a minimum-length euclidean interconnection of a set of points in the plane. It is well known that the solution to this problem will be the minimal spanning tree (MST) on some set steiner points, and the ESTP is NP-complete. The ESTP has received a lot of attention in the literature, and heuristic and optimal algorithms have been proposed. In real field, heuristic algorithms for ESTP are popular. A key performance measure of the algorithm for the ESTP is the reduction rate that is achieved by the difference between the objective value of the ESTP and that of the MST without steiner points. In recent survey for ESTP, the best heuristic algorithm showed around $3.14\%$ reduction in the performance measure. We present a evolution programming (EP) for ESTP based upon the Prim algorithm for the MST problem. The computational results show that the EP can generate better results than already known heuristic algorithms.

  • The conformation dependences of basis set superposition errors (BSSE) for 1,2-difluoroethane (DFE) and 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) molecules have been estimated using counterpoise method at the Moller-Plesset second order perturbation (MP2) level of theory with various basis sets, assuming that all BSSE dependences on conformations are due to the change in CC bond. The BSSE on the energy differences between eclipsed and gauche forms of DFE are in the range of 0.2-1.2 kcal/mol and those between local minima, gauche and anti forms, are less than 0.2 kcal/mol. For the larger DME molecule, the BSSE differences between local minima are still less than 0.4 kcal/mol, but may not be ignored compared to the energy differences of 0.2-3.0 kcal/mol between conformers.

  • This study is done to evaluate how existence of shear-span ratio and shear reinforcing bar effects on shear performance from through shear experiment using PVA fiber reinforced ferroconcrete building. Ratio of shear-span was set 1, 1.7, and arrangement of shear reinforcing bar was set with KCI2012 regulation. In result, subject with less shear-span ratio, and shear reinforcing bar with arrangement of bar shows high stiffness. Subjects with high shear-span ratio show large difference depending on existence of shear reinforcing bar. Therefore, theoretical shear strength followed by CEB code underestimates experimental shear strength by 43.9%. Shear strength of the deep beam with headed bars is more affected by the bearing strength of head than the bond strength of bar.
