We have already presented the constraint satisfaction algorithm which could solve the losed loop problem in constraint network by using local constraint propagation, variable elimination and constraint modularization. With this algorithm, we have implemented a knowledge-based system (intelligent CAD) for supporting machine design interactively. In this paper, we present newer constraint satisfaction algorithm which can solve inequalities or under-constrained problems in constraint network, interactively and efficiently. This algorithm is a hybrid type of using both declarative description (constraint represention) and optimization algorithm (Simulated Annealing), simultaneously. The under-constrained problems are represented by constraint networks and satisfied completely with this algorithm. The usefulness of our algorithm will be illustrated by the application to a gear design.

Conventional full search block matching algorithm for motion estimation is computationally intensive and the resulting hardware cost is very high. In this paper, we present an efficient block matching algorithm using a 16:1 subsampling technique, and describe its hardware design. The algorithm reduces the number of pixels in calculating the mean absolute difference at each search location, instead of reducing the search locations.The algorithm is an extension of the block mating algorithm with 4:1 subsampling proposed by Liu and Zaccarin such that the amount of computation is reduced by a fact of 4(16 compared to the full search block matching algorithm) while producing similar performance.The algorithm can efficiently be designed into a hardware for real-time applications.

The purpose of this study is to present a method for determining the k most vital arcs in shortest path problem using an evolutionary algorithm. The problem of finding the k most vital arcs in shortest path problem is to find a set of k arcs whose simultaneous removal from the network causes the greatest increase in the total length of shortest path. Generally, the problem determining the k most vital arcs in shortest path problem has known as NP-hard. Therefore, in order to deal with the problem of real world the heuristic algorithm is needed. In this study we propose to the method of finding the k most vital arcs in shortest path problem using an evolutionary algorithm which known as the most efficient algorithm among heuristics. The method presented in this study is developed using the library of the evolutionary algorithm framework and then the performance of algorithm is analyzed through the computer experiment.

This paper is presented to determine the optimal parameters of squeeze film damper using an enhanced genetic algorithm (EGA). The damper design parameters are the radius, length and radial clearance of the damper. The objective function is minimization of a transmitted load between bearing and foundation at the operating and critical speeds of a flexible rotor. The present algorithm was the synthesis of a genetic algorithm with simplex method for a local concentrate search. This hybrid algorithm is not only faster than the standard genetic algorithm, but also gives a more accurate solution and can find both the global and local optimum solution. The numerical example is presented that illustrated the effectiveness of enhanced genetic algorithm for the optimal design of the squeeze film damper for reducing transmitted load.

In the present study, we proposed a new subspace scanning algorithm to enhance the spatial resolution of electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography(MEG) source localization. Subspace scanning algorithms, represented by the multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm and the first principal vector (FINE) algorithm, have been widely used to localize asynchronous multiple dipolar sources in human cerebral cortex. The conventional MUSIC algorithm used principal component analysis (PCA) to extract the noise vector subspace, thereby having difficulty in discriminating two or more closely-spaced cortical sources. The FINE algorithm addressed the problem by using only a part of the noise vector subspace, but there was no golden rule to determine the number of noise vectors. In the present work, we estimated a non-orthogonal signal vector set using independent component analysis (ICA) instead of using PCA and performed the source scanning process in the signal vector subspace, not in the noise vector subspace. Realistic 2D and 3D computer simulations, which compared the spatial resolutions of various algorithms under different noise levels, showed that the proposed ICA-MUSIC algorithm has the highest spatial resolution, suggesting that it can be a useful tool for practical EEG/MEG source localization.

This paper proposes the improving the equalization performance using the variable step size in the S-MMA (Sliced-Multi Modulus Algorithm) equalization algorithm in order to minimize the effect of intersymbol interference which occurs at the nonlinear transfer function of communication channel. The S-MMA were showned for the improving the steady state equalization performance and misadjustment compared to the MMA present algorithm, this two algorithm has a limitation of performance improvement due to the adapting the fixed step size according to the error signal amplitude. In order to solving the abovemensioned problem, the proposed algorithm was adopting the variable step size proportional to the error signal amplitude and the computer simulation was performed for showing the performance improving. As a result of simulation, the proposed VSS S-MMA algorithm has more superior equalization performance compared to the present S-MMA.

In this paper, we propose a search algorithm for similar example-sentences in the computer-aided translation. The search for similar examples, which is a main part in the computer-aided translation, is to retrieve the most similar examples in the aspect of structural and semantical analogy for a given query from examples. The proposed algorithm is based on the Needleman-Wunsch algorithm, which is used to measure similarity between protein or nucleotide sequences in bioinformatics. If the original Needleman-Wunsch algorithm is applied to the search for similar sentences, it is likely to fail to find them since similarity is sensitive to word's inflectional components. Therefore, we use the lemma in addition to (typographical) surface information. In addition, we use the part-of-speech to capture the structural analogy. In other word, this paper proposes the similarity metric combining the surface, lemma, and part-of-speech information of a word. Finally, we present a search algorithm with the proposed metric and present pairs contributed to similarity between a query and a found example. Our algorithm shows good performance in the area of electricity and communication.

We present an algorithm for the fast computation of the general N-point spatial correlation functions of any discrete point set embedded within an Euclidean space of ${\mathbb{R}}n$. Utilizing the concepts of kd-trees and graph databases, we describe how to count all possible N-tuples in binned configurations within a given length scale, e.g. all pairs of points or all triplets of points with side lengths < rmax. Through benchmarking we show the computational advantage of our new graph-based algorithm over more traditional methods. We show that all 3-point configurations up to and beyond the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation scale (~200 Mpc in physical units) can be performed on current Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) data in reasonable time. Finally we present the first measurements of the 4-point correlation function of ~0.5 million SDSS galaxies over the redshift range 0.43< z <0.7. We present the publicly available code GRAMSCI (GRAph Made Statistics for Cosmological Information; bitbucket.org/csabiu/gramsci), under a GNU General Public License.

We are interested in the distance problem between two objects in three dimensional Euclidean space. There are many distance problems for various types of objects including line segments, boxes, polygons, circles, disks, etc. In this paper we present an iterative algorithm for finding the distance between two given ellipses. Numerical examples are given.
