This paper introduces modeling and its modal analysis procedure for exact and closed form solution of in-plane vibrations of general Timoshenko frame structures using exact dynamic element method(EDEM). The derivation procedure of the exact system dynamic matrices for Timoshenko beam frames is described. A new modal analysis procedure is also proposed since the conventional modal analysis schemes are not adequate for the proposed, exact system dynamic matrix. The proposed method provides exact modal parameters as well as all kinds of closed form solutions for general frame structures. Two numerical examples are presented for validating and illustrating the proposed method. The numerical study proves that the proposed method is useful for dynamic analysis of frame structures.

In this paper, we propose an asynchronous behavior control algorithm of the swarm robot for surrounding intruders when detected an intruder in a surveillance environment. The proposed method is divided into three parts: First, we proposed the method for the modeling of a state of the swarm robot. Second, we proposed an asynchronous behavior control algorithm for the surrounding an intruder by the swarm robot. Third, we proposed a control method for the collision avoidance with the swarm robot. Finally, we show the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method through some experiments.

This paper presents an efficient motion and disparity prediction method for multi-view video coding based on the high efficient video coding (HEVC) standard. The proposed method exploits inter-view candidates for effective prediction of the motion or disparity vector to be coded. The inter-view candidates include not only the motion vectors of adjacent views, but also global disparities across views. The motion vectors coded earlier in an adjacent view were found to be helpful in predicting the current motion vector to reduce the number of bits used in the motion vector information. In addition, the proposed disparity prediction using the global disparity method was found to be effective for interview predictions. A multi-view version based on HEVC was used to evaluate the proposed algorithm, and the proposed correspondence prediction method was implemented on a multi-view platform based on HEVC. The proposed algorithm yielded a coding gain of approximately 2.9% in a high efficiency configuration random access mode.

A multi-screen environment provides a new opportunity for digital signage applications, where various irregularly shaped screens are employed as an effective means for advertisements and information. A formation method applicable to numerous irregularly shaped screens is proposed to provide a new perspective on digital signage applications. The crucial part of the proposed method comes from the geometric sensing of each screen and the formation of a virtual screen where geometrically aligned content extraction and encoding are employed for content transmission to each screen. In addition, a software-based synchronization method for the proposed system is proposed to address the frame-level synchronization between screens. The experimental results of the proposed method show an improved performance of the frame-level synchronization, where the inconsistency between frames is not identified.

In this paper a new current control method is proposed for the discontinuous conduction mode of boost converter. The proposed method using a current gain feedforward compensation adjusts a measured inductor current value and then, calculated an average current precisely in the discontinuous conduction mode as well as continuous conduction mode. By applying the proposed method, the current measurement error is significantly reduced to 2% regardless of the operating points. The proposed method is analyzed and its performance is investigated in simulation. To verify the feasibility of the proposed scheme, a 10kW 3-phase interleaved boost converter was built and experimental results are matched to the simulation results.

In this study, a new Unit Commitment (UC) algorithm is proposed to consider the uncertainty of a daily load profile. The proposed algorithm calculates the UC results with a lower load level than that generated by the conventional load forecast method and the greater hourly reserve allocation. In case of the worst load forecast, the deviation of the conventional UC solution can be overcome with the proposed method. The proposed method is tested with sample systems, which indicates that the new UC algorithm yields a completely feasible solution even when the worst load forecast is applied. Also, the effects of the uncertain hourly load demand are statistically analyzed, particularly by the consideration of the average over generation and the average under generation. Finally, it is shown that independent power producers participating in electricity spot-markets can establish bidding strategies by means of the statistical analysis. Therefore, it is expected that the proposed method can be used as the basic guideline for establishing bidding strategies under the deregulation power pool.

The novel permanent magnetic actuator (PMA) and its optimal design method were proposed in this paper. The proposed PMA is referred to as the separated permanent magnetic actuator (SPMA) and significantly superior in terms of its cost and performance level over a conventional PMA. The proposed optimal design method uses the evolutionary strategy algorithm (ESA), the kriging meta-model (KMM), and the multi-step optimization. The KMM can compensate the slow convergence of the ESA. The proposed multi-step optimization process, which separates the independent variables, can decrease time and increase the reliability for the optimal design result. Briefly, the optimization time and the poor reliability of the optimum are mitigated by the proposed optimization method.

Understanding and classification of the human's emotion play an important tasks in interacting with human and machine communication systems. This paper proposes a novel emotion recognition method by extracting facial keypoints, which is able to understand and classify the human emotion, using active Appearance Model and the proposed classification model of the facial features. The existing appearance model scheme takes an expression of variations, which is calculated by the proposed classification model according to the change of human facial expression. The proposed method classifies four basic emotions (normal, happy, sad and angry). To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, we assess the ratio of success with common datasets, and we achieve the best 93% accuracy, average 82.2% in facial emotion recognition. The results show that the proposed method effectively performed well over the emotion recognition, compared to the existing schemes.

In this paper, we present the analysis method for a rectangular waveguide with horizontal conducting post using mode matching method and generalized scattering method. Scattering characteristics of a rectangular waveguide with the horizontal conducting post according to radius and height of the post are simulated by the proposed method. The simulated results by proposed method show good agreement with the measured results and the HFSS's results. Proposed method are easily applied to the design of a waveguide component with horizontal conducting posts.

Modular BOMs are typically used in TWO-Level Master Production Schedule. To solve the problems of Modular BOM generation and efficient DB construction, we proposed Value Clustering Method. Based upon Where-Used matrix of products and components, VCM is the method to find out module by generating product family group value, product value, and component value. We also proposed method to find out information about Modules, algorithms to find out Modules that show Alternative Usage Pattern, and method to find out Modules used in a given product. We also compared the DB creation method by Value Clustering Method and by conventional method. We compared the size of DB in both methods. We mathematically proved that the proposed method is doing better as the size and complexity of product family gets larger and more complicated.
