The advent of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has led to their use in numerous applications. Sensors are autonomous in nature and are constrained by limited resources. Designing an autonomous topology with criteria for economic and energy conservation is considered a major goal in WSN. The proposed honey-hive clustering consumes minimum energy and resources with minimal transmission delay compared to the existing approaches. The honey-hive approach consists of two phases. The first phase is an Intra-Cluster Min-Max Discrepancy (ICMMD) analysis, which is based on the local honey-hive data gathering technique and the second phase is Inter-Cluster Frequency Matching (ICFM), which is based on the global optimal data aggregation. The proposed data aggregation mechanism increases the optimal connectivity range of the sensor node to a considerable degree for inter-cluster and intra-cluster coverage with an improved optimal energy conservation.

칼라 렌즈 제작시 착색 시간에 따른 분광반사율을 측정하여 렌즈표면의 굴절률을 계산하였다. 착색 시간이 길수록 반사율과 굴절률은 커진다. 렌즈 표면에 착색물질이 포화상태가 될 때까지 굴절률은 시간에 따라 증가하였다. 시간에 따른 blue color 렌즈의 굴절률 변화 곡선은 Boltzmann 성장곡선을 따르며, 이때 $n_{min}$은 1.482. $n_{max}$는 1.497. $t_c=11.53$ 그리고 $d_0$ 등의 2.287 등의 parameter 값을 얻었다.

A new method for enhancing blurred images using fuzzy logic concepts is proposed. Blurred images contain blurred boundaries which make it difficult to detect edges and segment areas in images. In order to sharpen blurred edges local contrast information of an image and erosion/dilation properties of local min/max operations are used in which local min/max operations are fuzzy logic operations. so that given images are transformed to fuzzy images and then these operations are applied on them. In this method the sharpening operation can be iteratively applied to the image to get better deblurring effect and gray-scale "salt-and-pepper" noises are suppressed. the efficiency of our algorithm is demonstrated through experimental results obtained with artificially-made blurred images and real blurred images.

The purpose of this paper is to explore the use of fuzzy set theory for image processing and analysis. As an application example, the fuzzy method of edge detection is proposed to extract the edges of raised characters on tires.In general, Sobel, Prewitt, Robert and LoG filters are used to detect the edge, but it is difficult to detect the edge because of ambiguity of representations, noise and general problems in the interpretation of tire image. Therefore, in his paper, the fuzzy property plane has been extracted from the spatial domain using the ramp-mapping function. And then the ideas of fuzzy MIN and MAX are applied in removing noise and enhancement of the image simultaneously. From the result of MIN and MAX procedure a new fuzzy singleton is generated by extracting the difference between adjacent membership function values. And the edges are extracted by applying fuzzy $\alpha$-cut set to the fuzzy singletion, Finally, these ideas are applied to the tire images.

The problem of assigning customers to satellite channels is a difficult combinatorial optimization problem and is NP-complete. For this combinatorial optimization problem, standard optimization methods take a large computation time and so genetic algorithms (GA) and ant colony optimization (ACO) can be used to obtain the best and/or optimal assignment of customers to satellite channels. In this paper, we present a comparative study of GA and ACO to this problem. Various issues related to genetic algorithms approach to this problem, such as solution representation, selection methods, genetic operators and repair of invalid solutions are presented. We also discuss an ACO for this problem. In ACO methodology, three strategies, ACO with only ranking, ACO with only max-min ant system (MMAS), and ACO with both ranking and MMAS, are considered. A comparison of these two approaches (i,e., GA and ACO) with the standard optimization method is presented to show the advantages of these approaches in terms of computation time.

We obtain means and variances of max {X, Y} and min {X, Y} in the underlying Morgenstern type bivariate uniform variables X and Y with same scale parameters and different scale parameters respectively. And we obtain the conditional expectations in the underlying Morgenstern type bivariate uniform variables. Here, we shall consider the conditional expectations to know the dependence of one variable on the other variable and we consider the behaviors of means and variances of max {X, Y} and min {X, Y} with respect to changes in means, variances, and the correlation coeffcient of the underlying Morgenstern type bivariate uniform variables.

It is a crucial requirement to utilize an economical battery capacity for the wind energy conversion system. In this paper, the optimal BESS capacity is determined for the wind farm whose dispatched power is assigned by the min-max dispatching method. Based on a lifetime cost function that indicates the BESS cost spent to dispatch 1kWh wind energy into grid, the battery capacity can be optimized so as to obtain the minimum system operation cost. Moreover, the battery state of charge (SOC) is also managed to be in a safe operating range to ensure the system undamaged. In order to clarify the proposed optimizing method, a 3MW permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) wind turbine model and real wind speed data measured each minute are investigated.

A simple and general bit log-likelihood ratio (LLR) expression is provided for Gray-coded rectangular quadrature amplitude modulation (R-QAM) signals. The characteristics of Gray code mapping such as symmetries and repeated formats of the bit assignment in a symbol among bit groups are applied effectively for the simplification of the LLR expression. In order to reduce the complexity of the max-log-MAP algorithm for LLR calculation, we replace the mathematical max or min function of the conventional LLR expression with simple arithmetic functions. In addition, we propose an implementation algorithm of this expression. Because the proposed expression is very simple and constructive with some parameters reflecting the characteristic of the Gray code mapping result, it can easily be implemented, providing an efficient symbol de-mapping structure for various wireless applications.

As high quality image is required for digital cameras in recent use, the image stabilization technique has drawn much attention to prevent image degradation from shaky disturbance by users. In this paper, the optical image stabilization (OIS) system for DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex) camera is considered. First, the analytic model of an OIS system is presented to demonstrate the mechanism of image destabilization due to unknown disturbance that causes blurry images on CCD sensor. Then, to enhance the stabilization performance, a sliding mode control based on the min-max nonlinear control is introduced. Through the experiments and simulations, the effectiveness of the proposed method will be verified.

Time-lag recurrent neural networks model (Time-Lag RNNM) is used to estimate daily pan evaporation (PE) using limited climatic variables such as max temperature ($T_{max}$), min temperature ($T_{min}$), mean wind speed ($W_{mean}$) and mean relative humidity ($RH_{mean}$). And, for the performances of Time-Lag RNNM, it is composed of training and test performances, respectively. The training and test performances are carried out using daily time series data, respectively. From this research, we evaluate the impact of Time-Lag RNNM for the modeling of the nonlinear time series data. We should, thus, construct the credible data of the daily PE using Time-Lag RNNM, and can suggest the methodology for the irrigation and drainage networks system. Furthermore, this research represents that the strong nonlinear relationship such as pan evaporation modeling can be generalized using Time-Lag RNNM.
