Timing plays a key role in expressing the qualitative aspects of a character's motion; that is, conveying emotional state, personality, and character role, all potentially without changing spatial positions. Temporal editing of locomotion style is particularly difficult for a novice animator since observers are not well attuned to the sense of weight and energy displayed through motion timing; and the interface for adjusting timing is far less intuitive to use than that for adjusting pose. In this paper, we propose an editing system that effectively captures the timing variations in an example locomotion set and utilizes them for style transfer from one motion to another via both global and upper-body timing transfers. The global timing transfer focuses on matching the input motion to the body speed of the selected example motion, while the upper-body timing transfer propagates the sense of movement flow - succession - through the torso and arms. Our transfer process is based on key times detected from the example set and transferring the relative changes of angle rotation in the upper body joints from a timing source to an input target motion. We demonstrate that our approach is practical in an interactive application such that a set of short locomotion cycles can be applied to generate a longer sequence with continuously varied timings.

The ignition timing feedback control system was studied to enhance the engine power and to reduce the fuel consumption by optimizing the spark timing. The signal of a piezo-electric vibration transducer attached to the engine block was compared with that of a pressure transducer in order to determine the knock intensity. With the result of comparison the ignition timing feedback control system which detect the knock and correct the spark timing was set up. The ignition could be more advaced with this control system than the existing system without the continuous knocking, therefore the engine torque was increased.

This paper presents CARMA (Cycle-Accurate Retargetable Micro-Architecture) as efficient framework for SoC-centric pipelined instruction-set architectures. It is based on ADL (Architecture Description Language) and provides more concise and manifest semantics to describe behavior of instruction set by mixing efficiency of instruction-set simulators and flexibility of RTL simulators. It exploits new timing model method based on process scheduling so it can support general timing model with cycle accuracy for large-scaled architectures usually used in SoC multimedia chip-set. According to experiments, the proposed framework was shown to be 5.5 times faster than HDL and 2.5 times faster than System-C in simulation speed so it is applicable for complex instruction-set pipelined architectures.

Symbol timing error amounts to a major degradation in the system performance. Conventionally, timing error is estimated by predefined preamble on both transmitter and receiver. The maximum of the correlation result is considered the start of the OFDM symbol. Problem arises when the prime path is not the strongest one. In this paper, we propose a new combined time and channel estimation method for multi-band OFDM ultra wide-band (MB-OFDM UWB) systems. It is assumed that a coarse timing has been obtained at a stage before the proposed scheme. Based on the coarse timing, search interval is set (or time candidates). Exploiting channel statistics that are assumed to be known by the receiver, we derive a maximum a posteriori estimate (MAP) of the channel impulse response. Based on this estimate, we discern for the timing error. Timing estimation performance is compared with the least squares (LS) channel estimate in terms of mean squared error (MSE). It is shown that the proposed timing scheme is lower in MSE than the LS method.

This paper proposes a performance evaluation method for power consumption of set-top box (STB) stand-by mode transition schemes. A stand-by mode transition scheme characterizes the timing of mode transition. The timing of mode transition affects the duration of stand-by mode operation, and the power consumptions of STB as well. Recently a fast stand-by mode transition scheme (FMT) has been proposed based on user input for selecting the device to be connected to TV. In this paper, we evaluate power consumption of FMT and a conventional mode transition scheme. For the computation of the duration of stand-by mode operation, the user input events are modeled as Poisson process. Simulation results based on the modeling reveals that the proposed scheme is more effective in power saving than the conventional scheme by up to 30%.

매매시점결정은 금융시장에서 초과수익을 얻기 위해 사용되는 투자전략이다. 일반적으로, 매매시점 결정은 거래를 통한 초과수익을 얻기 위해 언제 매매할 것인지를 결정하는 것을 의미한다. 몇몇 연구자들은 러프집합분석이 매매시점결정에 적합한 도구라고 주장하였는데, 그 이유는 이 분석방법이 통제함수를 이용하여 시장의 패턴이 불확실할 때에는 거래를 위한 신호를 생성하지 않는다는 점 때문이었다. 러프집합은 분석을 위해 범주형 데이터만을 이용하므로, 분석에 사용되는 데이터는 연속형의 수치값을 이산화하여야 한다. 이산화란 연속형 수치값의 범주화 구간을 결정하기 위한 적절한 "경계값"을 찾는 것이다. 각각의 구간 내에서의 모든 값은 같은 값으로 변환된다. 일반적으로, 러프집합 분석에서의 데이터 이산화 방법은 등분위 이산화, 전문가 지식에 의한 이산화, 최소 엔트로피 기준 이산화, Na$\ddot{i}$ve and Boolean reasoning 이산화 등의 네 가지로 구분된다. 등분위 이산화는 구간의 수를 고정하고 각 변수의 히스토그램을 확인한 후, 각각의 구간에 같은 숫자의 표본이 배정되도록 경계값을 결정한다. 전문가 지식에 의한 이산화는 전문가와의 인터뷰 또는 선행연구 조사를 통해 얻어진 해당 분야 전문가의 지식에 따라 경계값을 정한다. 최소 엔트로피 기준 이산화는 각 범주의 엔트로피 측정값이 최적화 되도록 각 변수의 값을 재귀분할 하는 방식으로 알고리즘을 진행한다. Na$\ddot{i}$ve and Boolean reasoning 이산화는 Na$\ddot{i}$ve scaling 후에 그로 인해 분할된 범주값을 Boolean reasoning 방법으로 종속변수 값에 대해 최적화된 이산화 경계값을 구하는 방법이다. 비록 러프집합분석이 매매시점결정에 유망할 것으로 판단되지만, 러프집합분석을 이용한 거래를 통한 성과에 미치는 여러 이산화 방법의 효과에 대한 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 러프집합분석을 이용한 주식시장 매매시점결정 모형을 구성함에 있어서 다양한 이산화 방법론을 비교할 것이다. 연구에 사용된 데이터는 1996년 5월부터 1998년 10월까지의 KOSPI 200데이터이다. KOSPI 200은 한국 주식시장에서 최초의 파생상품인 KOSPI 200 선물의 기저 지수이다. KOSPI 200은 제조업, 건설업, 통신업, 전기와 가스업, 유통과 서비스업, 금융업 등에서 유동성과 해당 산업 내의 위상 등을 기준으로 선택된 200개 주식으로 구성된 시장가치 가중지수이다. 표본의 총 개수는 660거래일이다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 유명한 기술적 지표를 독립변수로 사용한다. 실험 결과, 학습용 표본에서는 Na$\ddot{i}$ve and Boolean reasoning 이산화 방법이 가장 수익성이 높았으나, 검증용 표본에서는 전문가 지식에 의한 이산화가 가장 수익성이 높은 방법이었다. 또한, 전문가 지식에 의한 이산화가 학습용과 검증용 데이터 모두에서 안정적인 성과를 나타내었다. 본 연구에서는 러프집합분석과 의사결정 나무분석의 비교도 수행하였으며, 의사결정나무분석은 C4.5를 이용하였다. 실험결과, 전문가 지식에 의한 이산화를 이용한 러프집합분석이 C4.5보다 수익성이 높은 매매규칙을 생성하는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper presents a unique approach to urban traffic network signal control. This paper begins with an introduction to traffic control in general, and then goes on to describe the approach of fuzzy control, where the signal timing parameters at a given intersection are adjusted as functions of the local traffic network condition and adjacent intersection. The signal timing parameters evolve dynamically using only local information to improve traffic signal flow. The signal timing at an intersection is defined by three parameters : cycle time, phase split, off set. Fuzzy decision rules are used to adjust three parameters based only on local information. The amount of change in the timing parameters during each cycle is limited to a small fraction of the current parameters to ensure smooth transition. In this paper the effectiveness of this method is showed through simulation of the traffic signal flow in a network of controlled intersection.

The Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) is a ground-based aircraft navigation system and is considered as an infrastructure that ensures resilient aircraft navigation capability during the event of a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) outage. The main problem of DME as a GNSS back up is a poor positioning accuracy that often reaches over 100 m. In this paper, a novel approach of applying deep reinforcement learning to a DME pulse design is introduced to improve the DME distance measuring accuracy. This method is designed to develop multipath-resistant DME pulses that comply with current DME specifications. In the research, a Markov Decision Process (MDP) for DME pulse design is set using pulse shape requirements and a timing error. Based on the designed MDP, we created an Environment called PulseEnv, which allows the agent representing a DME pulse shape to explore continuous space using the Soft Actor Critical (SAC) reinforcement learning algorithm.

Clock skew scheduling is one of the essential steps to be carefully performed during the design process. This work addresses the clock skew optimization problem integrated with the consideration of the inter-dependent relation between the setup and hold times, and clock to-Q delay of flip-flops, so that the time margin is more accurately and reliably set aside over that of the previous methods, which have never taken the integrated problem into account. Precisely, based on an accurate flexible model of setup time, hold time, and clock-to-Q delay, we propose a stepwise clock skew scheduling technique in which at each iteration, the worst slack of setup and hold times is systematically and incrementally relaxed to maximally extend the time margin. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown through experiments with benchmark circuits, demonstrating that our method relaxes the worst slack of circuits, so that the clock period ($T_{clk}$) is shortened by 4.2% on average, namely the clock speed is improved from 369 MHz~2.23 GHz to 385 MHz~2.33 GHz with no time violation. In addition, it reduces the total numbers of setup and hold time violations by 27.7%, 9.5%, and 6.7% when the clock periods are set to 95%, 90%, and 85% of the value of Tclk, respectively.

Indoor positioning system becomes of increasing interests due to the demands for accurate indoor location information where Global Navigation Satellite System signal does not approach. Wi-Fi access points (APs) built in many construction in advance helps developing a Wi-Fi Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) based indoor localization. This localization method first collects pairs of position and RSSI measurement set, which is called fingerprint database, and then estimates a user's position when given a query measurement set by comparing the fingerprint database. The challenge arises from nonlinearity and noise on Wi-Fi RSSI measurements and complexity of handling a large amount of the fingerprint data. In this paper, machine learning techniques have been applied to implement Wi-Fi based localization. However, most of existing indoor localizations focus on single position estimation. The main contribution of this paper is to develop multi-target localization by using deep neural, which is beneficial when a massive crowd requests positioning service. This paper evaluates the proposed multilocalization based on deep learning from a multi-story building, and analyses its learning effect as increasing number of target positions.
