In this paper, a new efficient algorithm for global motion estimation is proposed. This algorithm uses a previous 4-parameter model based global motion estimation algorithm and M-estimator for improving the accuracy and robustness of the estimate. The first algorithm uses the block based motion vector fields and which generates a coarse global motion parameters. And second algorithm is M-estimator technique for getting precise global motion parameters. This technique does not increase the computational complexity significantly, while providing good results in terms of estimation accuracy. In this work, an initial estimation for the global motion parameters is obtained using simple 4-parameter global motion estimation approach. The parameters are then refined using M-estimator technique. This combined algorithm shows significant reduction in mean compensation error and shows performance improvement over simple 4-parameter global motion estimation approach.

Negative binomial yield model for semiconductor manufacturing consists of two parameters which are the average number of defects per die and the clustering parameter. Estimating the clustering parameter is quite complex because the parameter has not clear closed form. In this paper, a Bayesian approach using Markov Chain Monte Carlo is proposed to estimate the clustering parameter. To find an appropriate estimation method for the clustering parameter, two typical estimators, the method of moments estimator and the maximum likelihood estimator, and the proposed Bayesian estimator are compared with respect to the mean absolute deviation between the real yield and the estimated yield. Experimental results show that both the proposed Bayesian estimator and the maximum likelihood estimator have excellent performance and the choice of method depends on the purpose of use.

준정적 횡하중을 재하 받는 철근콘크리트 보-기둥 접합부의 전단강도에 대한 주요 영향요인을 Bayesian parameter estimation의 신뢰성 이론 접목을 통해 검토하였다. 이와 같은 연구 scope의 수행을 위해 철근콘크리트 보-기둥의 실험 database가 구축되었다. 실험 database는 일정한 criteria을 적용하여 구축되었으며, 포함된 시편들은 최종적으로 접합부 내의 전단파괴가 지배하는 경우들이다. 포함된 시편들의 상세는 ACI (American Concrete Institute) 352R-02를 기준으로 평가되어졌다. 보-기둥 접합부의 전단강도에 영향 요인을 편중되지 않게 평가하고자, Bayesian parameter estimation의 신뢰성 이론을 적용하였다. Bayesian parameter estimation의 적용을 통해 전단강도에 영향이 적은 변수 (not informative parameter)를 순차적으로 제거 (stepwise removal process)함으로 주요 영향요인의 우선 순위를 확인할 수 있었다. 검토된 8개의 변수들 중에서, 횡하중을 재하 받는 철근콘크리트 보-기둥의 전단강도는 주로 콘크리트 압축강도, in-plane geometry, 종방향 보의 주철근 그리고 접합부 내의 구속철근 순으로 영향을 줌을 알 수 있었다.

An approach to make the information bound sharper in median-unbiased estimation, based on an analogue of the Cramer-Rao inequality developed by Sung et al. (1990), is introduced for continuous densities with a nuisance parameter by considering information quantities contained both in the parametric function of interest and in the nuisance parameter in a linear fashion. This approach is comparable to that of improving the information bound in mean-unbiased estimation for the case of two unknown parameters. Computation of an optimal weight corresponding to the nuisance parameter is also considered.

This paper presents the methodology for obtaining point and interval estimating of the parameters of a new two-parameter distribution with multiple-censored and singly censored data (Type-I censoring or Type-II censoring) as well as complete data, using the maximum likelihood method. The basis is the likelihood expression for multiple-censored data. Furthermore, this model can be extended to a three-parameter distribution that is added a scale parameter. Then, the parameter estimation can be obtained by the graphical estimation on probability plot.

This paper deals with a parameter estimation of the DC-DC converter system for its diagnosis. Especially, we present the results of parameter estimation for the DC-DC converter model by the system identification method. The parameter estimation for the DC-DC converter system aims at the diagnosis of its operating status. For the operating status diagnosis of the DC-DC converter system, we assume that the DC-DC converter system is an equivalent model of the Buck converter and estimate the main parameter for on-line diagnosis. In addition, for verification of an estimated parameter, we compare a bode plot of the estimated system transfer function and measurement results of the HP4194 instrument. It is a control system analyzer for system transfer function measurement. Our results confirm that the main parameter for diagnosis of the DC-DC converter system can be estimated by the system identification method and that the aging status of the system can be predicted by these results on operating status.

This paper presents the method of parameter estimation of diffusion model for monitoring Demand-Side Management Program. Bass diffusion model was applied in this paper, which has different values according to parameters ; coefficients of innovation, imitation and potential adopters. Though it is very important to estimate three parameter, there are no empirical results in practice. Thus, this paper presents the method of parameter estimation in case of few data with constraints to reduce the possibility of bad estimation. The constraints are empirical results or expert's decision. Case studies show the diffusion curves of high-efficient lighting and also forecasting of the peak value for power demand considering diffusion of high-efficient lighting, the feedback and least-square parameter estimation method used in this paper enable us to evaluate the status and forecasting of the effect of DSM program.

This paper addresses the issues of the parameter error detection and identification in electric power systems. In this paper, the parameter error identification and estimation is carried out as part of the state estimation. A two stage estimation procedure is used to detect and identify the parameter errors. The suspected parameters are identified by the WLAV state estimator as the first stage. A new WLAV state estimator adding the suspected system parameters in the state vector is used to estimate the exact value of parameter errors. Supporting examples are given by using IEEE 14 bus system.

In this paper, we propose a new estimation method based on a weighted linear regression framework to obtain some estimators for unknown parameters in a two-parameter Rayleigh distribution under a progressive Type-II censoring scheme. We also provide unbiased estimators of the location parameter and scale parameter which have a nuisance parameter, and an estimator based on a pivotal quantity which does not depend on the other parameter. The proposed weighted least square estimator (WLSE) of the location parameter is not dependent on the scale parameter. In addition, the WLSE of the scale parameter is not dependent on the location parameter. The results are compared with the maximum likelihood method and pivot-based estimation method. The assessments and comparisons are done using Monte Carlo simulations and real data analysis. The simulation results show that the estimators ${\hat{\mu}}_u({\hat{\theta}}_p)$ and ${\hat{\theta}}_p({\hat{\mu}}_u)$ are superior to the other estimators in terms of the mean squared error (MSE) and bias.
