In this paper, the effectiveness and accuracy of using the direct estimation method were investigated in determining a worker's lifting capacity or the maximum acceptable weight of lifting (MAWOL) of symmetrical fifting tasks in the workplace were investigated. Six lifting tasks involving two vertical fifting start-end points (0-80cm, 47-102cm) and three lifting frequencies (1, 2, and 4 lifts/minute) were studied. Ten young, male subjects performed the six lifting tasks to predict the MAWOL using the psychophysical method and the direct estimation method. The main results indicated that there were no significant differences between the MAWOLs determined by the two methods except for the lifting frequency of 4 lifts/minute. Analysis of variance was performed on the task rating data to check the consistency of the task rating across subjects, which revealed no significant difference.

For robot navigation and visual reconstruction, structure from motion (SFM) is an active issue in computer vision community and its properties arc also becoming well understood. In this paper, when using stereo image sequence and direct method as a tool for SFM, we present a new method for overcoming bas-relief ambiguity. We first show that the direct methods, based on optical flow constraint equation, are also intrinsically exposed to such ambiguity although they introduce robust methods. Therefore, regarding the motion and depth estimation by the robust and direct method as approximated ones. we suggest a method that refines both stereo displacement and motion displacement with sub-pixel accuracy, which is the central process f3r improving its ambiguity. Experiments with real image sequences have been executed and we show that the proposed algorithm has improved the estimation accuracy.

To estimate directions of multi-sound sources, we consider an approach based on zero crossings which provided more robust results to diffuse noise than the conventional cross-correlation-based method [6][7]. In reverberant environments, the performance of source direction estimation can be improved by using signal components through direct paths from sources to microphones. Since a cepstral prefiltering technique [8] removes the effect of reverberation, we propose a source direction estimation method which can find out intervals of the direct-path components by comparing original and cepstral-prefiltered envelopes. Simulations demonstrate that the proposed method can improve the performance of source direction estimation in reverberant environments.

비최소 위상 시스템에 대한 적응 제어 알고리즘의 발전은 제어 법칙에 있어서 발생되는 비정칙성(singularity)에 의하여 제한되어 왔다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 직접 적응 제어방식과 간접 적응 제어방식을 사용하여 플랜트 신호에서의 영구 여기(persistency of excitation)를 유발시켜 플랜트의 실제값을 추정하기 위한 추정의 수렴성을 보장하는 방법과 간접 적응 제어방식을 사용하여 영구 여기 조건 없이 가제어성 필요 조건을 만족하도록 추정을 적절히 변형 시키는 방법이 연구되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 직접 적응 제어방식을 사용하여 영구 여기 조건이 없어도 제어기의 파라메타 추정이 가능하도록 하였으며, 플랜트 파라메타의 추정없이 제어기의 파라메타를 직접 추정하도록하여 추정 알고리즘을 간소화하였다.

SRPM (Neyman-Scott Rectangular Pulse Model)은 수문학분야에서 널리 쓰이고 있는 강수생성모형이다. NSRPM을 구축하기 위해서는 총 5개의 매개변수를 추정하여야 한다. 일반적으로 사용되는 모멘트를 이용하여 매개변수를 추정할 경우, 사용되는 목적함수의 증가에 따라 추정되는 매개변수의 결과가 평탄해지고 목적함수를 추가하거나 조정하기 위해서는 복잡한 수식을 다시 계산해야 하며 추정된 매개변수가 무작위변수 생성 모형에 따라 상이한 결과를 나타내는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 직접적인 매개변수 추정방법을 제시하여 모멘트를 이용한 매개변수 추정의 단점을 극복하고자 하였다. 직접적인 추정방법을 적용하기 위하여 NSRPM의 강수 생성 개수에 따른 통계치 변화를 모의하여 직접적인 추정을 위한 모형을 구축하였다. 기상청 청주 지상관측소의 관측 강수 자료를 사용하여 모멘트를 이용하여 추정된 매개변수와 직접적인 방법을 이용하여 매개변수를 추정하였다. 총 4 개의 무작위변수 알고리즘을 적용하여 강수를 생성하였고, 관측 강수 시계열을 이용하여 정확도를 비교하였다. 비교 결과 직접적인 추정방법이 모멘트를 이용한 매개변수 추정방법보다 안정적이고 높은 정확도를 보이는 매개변수를 추정하는 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, the tension of assembly stay cable connected with massive anchorage block was calculated through back analysis of in-situ frequencies measured from a stadium structure. Direct approach to back analysis is adopted using the univariate method among the direct search methods as an optimization technique. The univariate method can search the optimal tension without regard to the initial ones and has a rapid convergence rate. To verify the reliability of back analysis, Tension formulas proposed by Zui et al. and Shimada were used. Tensions estimated by three methods are compared with the design tension, and are in a reasonable agreement with an error of more or less than 15%. Therefore, it is shown that back analysis applied in this paper is appropriate for estimation of cable tension force.

A grid voltage estimation method for modular plug-in active power decoupling (APD) circuits is proposed in this study as direct replacements of electrolytic capacitors. Since modular plug-in APD circuits cannot have additional grid voltage sensors and should be operated independently without information exchange with the front-end converter, it is impossible to obtain the phase information of the grid directly. Therefore, the proposed method uses the second-order harmonic component of the DC-link voltage to estimate the grid voltage necessary to control the APD circuit. By employing the proposed method, the concept of modular plug-in APD circuits can be realized and implemented without direct detection of the grid voltage. The experimental results based on hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS) validate the effectiveness of the proposed control method.

This paper proposes a novel direct adaptive pole placement control algorithm which can be applied to continuous time nonminimum phase systems. The algorithm is based on Lyapunov's direct method. By introducing an auxiliary signal, a minimal error model is constructed in state space. Using the error model an estimation law is obtained via Lyapunov's second stability theorem. The global stability of the overall system is established.

In this paper, we proposed a new ARMA model identification which estimate the parameters to make the current prediction error uncorrelated with the past one. As good properties of the proposed method, we show the uniqueness, consistency of the estimate and asymptotic normality of the estimation error. Via simulation results, we show that the proposed method give good estimates for various systems which have different power spectrum. Moreover, the estimation of gyroscope random errors shows that the proposed method is applicable to the real data.
