The Taguchi parameter design in industry is an approach to reducing performance variation of quality characteristic in products and processes. In the Taguchi parameter design, the product array approach using orthogonal arrays is mainly used. It often requires an excessive number of experiments. An alternative approach, which is called the combined array approach, was studied. In these studies, only single response was considered. In this paper we propose how to simultaneously optimize multiresponse for the robust design using the combined array approach.

In this study, Finite Element Analysis have been adopted to analyze reducing stress effect and used to induce the sensitivity of design parameter on various techniques which was used for reducing stress. And so it can be utilized as a data to design on similar model. The effect of reducing stress with respect to change of relief groove radius can be increased by 27.3~18.2 % more than radius of fillet. And if a shoulder fillet radius is larger, additional reducing stress by relief groove radius is not obtained. And there was only little effect on reducing stress by changing the center point of groove radius along horizontal direction. In the case that undercut radius is 1.5mm, Max. Equivalent stress is reduced by 5.71% under bending force and 11.11% under torsion. The best effect of reducing stress at undercut model was yielded when the undercut radius is a forth of difference of stepped shaft radius.

Parameter optimization technique is applied to planning UAVs(Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) path under artificial enemy radar threats. The ground enemy radar threats are characterized in terms of RCS(Radar Cross Section) parameter which is a measure of exposure to the radar threats. Mathematical model of the RCS parameter is constructed by a simple mathematical function in the three-dimensional space. The RCS model is directly linked to the UAVs attitude angles in generating a desired trajectory by reducing the RCS parameter. The RCS parameter is explicitly included in a performance index for optimization. The resultant UAVs trajectory satisfies geometrical boundary conditions while minimizing a weighted combination of the flight time and the measure of ground radar threat expressed in RCS.

For model calibration in rainfall-runoff modeling, streamflow data at a specific outlet is obviously required but is not sufficient to identify parameters of a model since numerous parameter combinations can result in very similar model performance measures (i.e. objective functions) and indistinguishable simulated hydrographs. This phenomenon has been called 'equifinality' due to inherent parameter uncertainty involved in rainfall-runoff modeling. This study aims to investigate catchment responses in time and space to various uncertain parameter sets in distributed rainfall-runoff modeling. Seven plausible (or behavioral) parameter sets, which guarantee identically-good model performances, were sampled using deterministic and stochastic optimization methods entitled SCE and SCEM, respectively. Then, we applied them to a computational tracer method linked with a distributed rainfall-runoff model in order to trace and visualize potential origins of streamflow at a catchment outlet. The results showed that all hydrograph simulations based on the plausible parameter sets were performed equally well while internal catchment responses to them showed totally different aspects; different parameter values led to different distributions with respect to the streamflow origins in space and time despite identical simulated hydrographs. Additional information provided by the computational tracer method may be utilized as a complementary constraint for filtering out non-physical parameter set(s) (or reducing parameter uncertainty) in distributed rainfall-runoff modeling.

Taguchi parameter design is an approach to reducing performance variation of quality characteristic value in products and processes. Taguchi has used SN (Signal to Noise) ratio to achieve the appropriate set of operating conditions where variability around target is low in the Taguchi parameter design. This paper describes the prediction technique of vehicle performance using parameter analysis to reduce man hour and test development period as well as to achieve stable NVH performance. Design engineer could efficiently decide the design variable using parameter analysis database in early design stage. These improvements can reduce the time needed to develop better vehicles.

This paper proposes a new method of reducing the processing time and the size of consummimg memories in Hough transform. In this method, only the functional patterns are considered. The candidate points which are accumulated into the parameter space are computed in a many-to-one fashion and the parameter space is quantized dynamically to maintain a fine precision where it is needed. And a coarse-to-fine extraction method is used to reduce the processing time. The many-to-one fashional computation results in a relatively high-densed accumulation of candidate points around the parameter points corresponding to the image patterns in the image space. So, the dynamic quantization procedure can be simplified and the local maxima can be determined easily. And more effective reduction can be obtained as the dimension of parameter space is increased.

Taguchi parameter design is an approach to reducing performance variation of quality characteristic value in products and processes. Taguchi has used signal-to-noise(SN) ratio to achieve the appropriate set of operating conditions where variability around target is low in the Taguchi parameter design. Many statisticians criticize the Taguchi techniques of analysis, particularly those based on SN ratio. In this paper we propose a substantially simpler optimization procedure for parameter design without resorting to SN ratio.

To solve a class of nonlinear parameter estimation problems, a method combining the regularized structured nonlinear total least norm (RSNTLN) method and parameter separation scheme is suggested. The method guarantees the convergence of parameters and has an advantages in reducing the residual norm over the use of RSNTLN only. Numerical experiments for two models appeared in signal processing show that the suggested method is more effective in obtaining solution and parameter with minimum residual norm.

In many cases of robust stability problems, the characteristic polynomial has real coefficients which or nonlinear functions of uncertain parameters. For this set of polynomials, a new stability easily checking algorithm for reducing the conservatism of the stability bound are given. It is the new stability theorem to determine the stability region just in parameter space. Illustrative example show that the presented method has larger stability bound in uncertain parameter space than others.

The problem of parameter identification for multivariable stochastic linear systems from output measurements, which are corrupted by noises, is considered. A modified Luenberger's input/output canonical form is used for reducing the number of unknown coefficients. A computationally and conceptionally simple systematic procedure for parameter estimation is obtained using output correlation method. The estimates are shown to be asymptotically normal, unbiased and consistent. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the identification method.
