Inverse problem in electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is highly ill-posed therefore prior information is used to mitigate the ill-posedness. Regularization methods are often adopted in solving EIT inverse problem to have satisfactory reconstruction performance. In solving the EIT inverse problem, iterative Gauss-Newton method is generally used due to its accuracy and fast convergence. However, its performance is still suboptimal and mainly depends on the selection of regularization parameter. Although, there are few methods available to determine the regularization parameter such as L-curve method they are sometimes not applicable for all cases. Moreover, regularization parameter is a scalar and it is fixed during iteration process. Therefore, in this paper, a novel method is used to determine the regularization parameter to improve reconstruction performance. Conductivity norm is calculated at each iteration step and it used to obtain the regularization parameter which is a diagonal matrix in this case. The proposed method is applied to human thorax imaging and the reconstruction performance is compared with traditional methods. From numerical results, improved performance of proposed method is seen as compared to conventional methods.

A new method for design of two-channel finite-impulse response(FIR) quadrature mirror-image filter(QMF) banks with low reconstruction delay using weighting function is proposed. The weighting function used in this paper is calculated from the previous updated filter coefficients vector which is adjusted from iteration to iteration in the design of QMF banks. In this paper, passband and stopband edge frequency are used in design of QMF banks with low delay characteristic in time domain instead of specific frequency interval where the artifacts occur in conventional design method. The investigation of specific frequency interval where artifacts occur can not be required by using passband and stopband edge frequency. Some comparisons of performance are made with other existing design method to demonstrate the proposed method for QMF bank design. and it was observed that the proposed method using the weighted function and passband and stopband edge frequency improves the peak reconstruction error by 0.001 [dB], the peak-to-peak passband ripple by 0.003[dB], SNR with a white noise by 7[dB] and SNR with a step input by 32[dB], but with a reduction of the computational efficiency because of updating the weighting function over the conventional method in Ref [11].

This paper introduces a postprocessing method, an iteration method for melody, and an average neural network method for learning a large number of songs in order to improve musically insufficient parts in automatic composition using existing artificial neural network. The melody of songs composed by artificial neural networks is produced according to the melodies of trained songs, so it can not be a specific tonality and it is difficult to have a repetitive composition. In order to solve these problems, we propose a postprocessing method that converts the melody composed by artificial neural networks into a melody having a specific tonality according to music theory and an iteration method for melody by iteratively composing measure divisions of artificial neural networks. In addition, the existing training method of many songs has some disadvantages. To solve this problem, we adopt an average neural network that is made by averaging the weights of artificial neural networks trained each song. From some experiments, it was confirmed that the proposed method solves the existing problems.

The study proposed the initial equilibrium state analysis method that considers axial deformation, in order to accurately determine the initial shape of a cable-stayed bridge. Sepecifically, the proposed method adopted the successive iteration method. In order to evaluate appropriate initial cable force introduced in the initial equilibrium state analysis, parametric studies were performed and a useful linear analysis method proposed. The geometrically nonlinear static behaviors of cable-stayed bridges were considered, using three-dimensional frame element and elastic catenary cable element. The usefulness and applicability of the analytic method proposed in this study were demonstrated using numerical examples, including a real cable-stayed bridge. The algorithm, is applicable in cases wherein axial deformation is not adopted in the fabrication camber, or final cable force is adjusted to eliminate construction and fabrication errors occurring during construction.

Multigrid method has been used widely to solve elliptic problems because of its applicability to many class of problems and fast convergence ([1], [3], [9], [10], [11], [12]). The estimate of convergence rate of multigrid is one of the main objectives of the multigrid analysis ([1], [2], [5], [6], [7], [8]). In many problems, the convergence rate depends on the regularity of the solutions([5], [6], [8]). In this paper, we present an improved estimate of reduction factor of multigrid iteration based on the proof in [6].

Methods for calculating k shortest paths in a network system, are based on a analogy which exists between the solution of a network problem and traditional techniques for solving linear equations. This paper modifies an algebraic structure of the K shortest path method and develops k maximum flow methods. On the basis of both theoretical and algebraic structure, three iteration methods are developed and the effective procedure of each method are provided. Finally, computational complexity is discussed for those methods.

In this paper, we propose new iteration methods for finding a common point of the solution set of a pseudomonotone equilibrium problem and the solution set of a monotone equilibrium problem. The methods are based on both the extragradient-type method and the viscosity approximation method. We obtain weak convergence theorems for the sequences generated by these methods in a real Hilbert space.

An iterative learning contol method is presented for a class of linear periodic systems, in which a parameter estimator of the system together with an inverse system model is utilized to generate the control signal at each iteration. A convergence proof is given and two numerical examples are illustrated to show the validities of the algorithm. In particular, it is shown that the method is useful for the continuous path control of robot manipulators.

Levitation force of a new magnetic levitation system using a super-conducting bulk magnet(SBM) and a permanent magnet(PM) was numerically calculated. The non-linear J-E relation of a SBM was modeled using a critical state model and iteration method, and demagnetization of a PM was considered using a demagnetization curve of a real PM. The maximum limitation of levitation force was found according to increasing the trapped field in a SBM. Finite element method was used for numerical calculation.

This paper presents a steady state optimal control algorithm for the weakly coupled discrete time bilinearsystems. The optimal solution for the overall system is obtained by solving a sequence of reduced order algebraic Riccati equations with an arbitrary accuracy. The obtained solutions converge to the optimal solutions by using the iteration method. We verify the proposed method by applying it to a real world numerical example.
