Optimal mount position of a front pillar trim considering heat resistant characteristics can be determined by two methods. One is conventional approximate optimization method which uses the statistical design of experiments (DOE) and response surface method (RSM). Generally, approximated optimum results are obtained through the iterative process by a trial and error. The quality of results depends seriously on the factors and levels assigned by a designer. The other is a methodology derived from previous work by the authors, which is called sequential design of experiments (SDOE), to reduce a trial and error procedure and to find an appropriate condition for using artificial neural network (ANN) systematically. An appropriate condition is determined from the iterative process based on the analysis of means. With this new technique and ANN, it is possible to find an optimum design accurately and efficiently.

In this paper, a comparison of superpixel characteristics based on SLIC(simple linear iterative clustering) for several color feature spaces is presented. Computer vision applications have come to rely increasingly on superpixels in recent years. Superpixel algorithms group pixels into perceptually meaningful atomic regions, which can be used to replace the rigid structure of the pixel grid. A superpixel is consist of pixels with similar features such as luminance, color, textures etc. Thus superpixels are more efficient than pixels in case of large scale image processing. Generally superpixel characteristics are described by uniformity, boundary precision and recall, compactness. However previous methods only generate superpixels a special color space but lack researches on superpixel characteristics. Therefore we present superpixel characteristics based on SLIC as known popular. In this paper, Lab, Luv, LCH, HSV, YIQ and RGB color feature spaces are used. Uniformity, compactness, boundary precision and recall are measured for comparing characteristics of superpixel. For computer simulation, Berkeley image database(BSD300) is used and Lab color space is superior to the others by the experimental results.

In this paper, a practical method to generate task strategies applicable to charmfulness and high-precision assembly, is proposed. The difficulties in devising reliable assembly strategies result form various forms of uncertainty such as imperfect knowledge on the parts being assembled and functional limitations of the assembly devices. In approach to cope with these problems, the robot is provided with the capability of learning the corrective motion in response to the force signal through iterative task execution. The strategy is realized by adopting a learning algorithm and represented in a binary tree type database. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, a series of simulations and experiments are carried out under assimilated real production environments. The results show that the sensory signal-to-robot action mapping can be acquired effectively and, consequently, the assembly task can be performed successfully.

다양한 산업체에서 반복적인 특정업무를 수행하는 경우가 흔히 발생한다. 반복되는 오차의 경험치를 근거로 주어진 작업을 추진하는 과정에서 이들 업무의 정밀도제고를 추구함으로써 갖는 성능개선은 사업장의 품질관리와 직결된다. 학습제어의 본래 적용동기는 생산조립라인에 투입되어 반복적인 일을 수행하는 산업로봇의 정밀도 제고이다. 본 논문에서 분산이산시형시스템에서 출발하였으며, 이를 산업용로봇에 적용하기 위하여 수학적으로 모델링한 모의실험을 통하여 알고리즘의 안정성과 반복오차를 줄여가는 과정을 보여 주었다. 입출력정보가 상호간섭 하는 산업용로봇과 같은 복합구조물에서도 모든 시스템(링크)의 정밀도를 만족함을 보여 줌으로써 복합구조물에서 선형반복학습제어의 안정성을 증명하였다.

This paper presents a new method for measuring ocular torsion using the optical flow. Images of the iris were cropped and transformed into rectangular images that were orientation invariant. Feature points of the iris region were selected from a reference and a target image, and the shift of each feature was calculated using the iterative Lucas-Kanade method. The feature points were selected according to the strength of the corners on the iris image. The accuracy of the algorithm was tested using printed eye images. In these images, torsion was measured with $0.15^{\circ}$ precision. The proposed method shows robustness even with the gaze directional changes and pupillary reflex environment of real-time processing.

Finding a technique to achieve high machining precision and high productivity is an important issue for CNC machining. One of the solutions to meet better performance of machining is feedrate control. In this paper we present an adaptive feedrate neuro-control method for high precision and high speed machining. The adaptive neuro-control architecture consists of a neural network identifier(NNI) and an iterative learning control algorithm with inversion of the NNI. The NNI is an identifier for the nonlinear characteristics of feedrate and contour error, which is utilized in iterative learning for adaptive feedrate control with specified contour error tolerance. The proposed neuro-control method has been successfully evaluated for machining circular, corner and involute contours by computer simulations.

Background: Survival time of lymphoma patients can be estimated with the help of microarray technology. In this study, with the use of iterative Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) method, survival time of Mantle Cell Lymphoma patients (MCL) was estimated and in reference to the findings, patients were divided into two high-risk and low-risk groups. Materials and Methods: In this study, gene expression data of MCL patients were used in order to select a subset of genes for survival analysis with microarray data, using the iterative BMA method. To evaluate the performance of the method, patients were divided into high-risk and low-risk based on their scores. Performance prediction was investigated using the log-rank test. The bioconductor package "iterativeBMAsurv" was applied with R statistical software for classification and survival analysis. Results: In this study, 25 genes associated with survival for MCL patients were identified across 132 selected models. The maximum likelihood estimate coefficients of the selected genes and the posterior probabilities of the selected models were obtained from training data. Using this method, patients could be separated into high-risk and low-risk groups with high significance (p<0.001). Conclusions: The iterative BMA algorithm has high precision and ability for survival analysis. This method is capable of identifying a few predictive variables associated with survival, among many variables in a set of microarray data. Therefore, it can be used as a low-cost diagnostic tool in clinical research.

In this work a dynamic cutting force model in ball end milling of inclined surface is introduced. To represent the complex cutting geometry in ball end milling of inclined surface, workpiece is modeled with Z-map method and cutting edges are divided into finite cutting edge elements. As tool rotates and vibrates, a finite cutting edge element makes two triangular sub-patches. Using the number of nodes in workpiece which are in the interior of sub-patches, instant average uncut chip thickness is derived. Instant dynamic cutting forces are computed with the chip thickness and cutting coefficients. The deformation of cutting tool induced by cutting farces is also computed. With iterative computation of these procedures, a dynamic cutting force model is generated. The model is verified with several experiments.
