This paper describes a robust visual surveillance algorithm under outdoor environment. One of the difficult problems for outdoor is to obtain effective updating process of background images. Because background images generally contain the shadows of buildings, trees, moving clouds and other objects, they are changed by lapse of time and variation of illumination. They provide the lowering of performance for surveillance system under outdoor. In this paper, a robust algorithm for visual surveillance system under outdoor is proposed, which apply the mixture Gaussian filter and color invariant property on pixel level to update background images. In results, it was showed that the moving objects can be detected on various shadows under outdoor.

The main objective of this paper is the robust multi-objective optimization design of semi-active tuned mass damper (STMD) system using genetic algorithms and fuzzy logic. For optimal design of this system, it is required that the uncertainties which may exist in the system be taken into account. This consideration is performed through the robust design optimization (RDO) procedure. To evaluate the optimal values of the design parameters, three non-commensurable objective functions namely: normalized values of the maximum displacement, velocity, and acceleration of each story level are considered to minimize simultaneously. For this purpose, a fast and elitist non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) approach is used to find a set of Pareto-optimal solutions. The torsional effects due to irregularities of the building and/or unsymmetrical placements of the dampers are taken into account through the 3-D modeling of the building. Finally, the comparison of the results shows that the probabilistic robust STMD system is capable of providing a reduction of about 52%, 42.5%, and 37.24% on the maximum displacement, velocity, and acceleration of the building top story, respectively.

Due to the recent advance in wireless communication technology, it is now more demanding to enjoy the high quality of service in the wireless Internal. TCP, which many Internet applications depend on for the end-to-end transport service, is optimized for the wired environment. Consequently, TCP suffers from severe performance degradation in the wireless environment where the bit error rate is relatively high and the burst errors frequently take place. In this paper, we propose a Robust TCP algorithm, which can effectively react against the burst error and significantly improve the TCP performance in wireless Internet. It is shown through the simulations that the Robust TCP performs well in the wireless environment, especially under the burst error condition.

We present a predictive control algorithm combined with the robust robot control that is constructed on the Lyapunov min-max approach. Since the control design of a real manipulator system may often be made on the basis of the imperfect knowledge about the model, it is an important trend to design a robust control law that guarantees the desired properties of the manipulator under uncertain elements. In the preceding robust control work, we need to tune several control parameters in the admissible set where the desired stability can be achieved. By introducing an optimal predictive control technique in robust control we can find out much more deterministic controller for both the stability and the performance of manipulators. A new class of robust control combined with an optimal predictive control is constructed. We apply it to a simple type of 2-link robot manipulator and show that a desired performance can be achieved through the computer simulation.

In adaptive fuzzy control, fuzzy systems are used to approximate the unknown plant nonlinearities. However, because of the approximating error introduced into the feedback loop, it is difficult to guarantee the stability of the adaptive control algorithm. This paper presents a robust control algorithm against the reconstruction error and uniform boundedness of the all signals is estabilished in the Lyapunov sense.

The gloval model is developed by combining this actuator formular with robot manipulator which is reported previously . The model initially represented in the form of coupled time-varying nonlinear dynamic system. It then decomposed into the decoupled linear model using nonlinear feedback and state transformation techniques. The new model employes the pole replacement method to improve the stability of the system. Using this new model, an robust control algorithm is developed. The proposed algorithm takes two state variables, position vector and velocity vector, and one input variable from actuator, input voltage.

This paper proposes a face identification algorithm, robust on lighting condition and complex background. The proposed method estimates facial area under bad light condition by expanding face color boundaries and then finds a lip using the templates for lips. Then the eyes are found using their topological relationship with the long and short axes of lip area. The experimental results have shown that the proposed algorithm is robust on lighting conditions and complex background.

Gaussian process classifiers (GPCs) are fully statistical kernel classification models which have a latent function with Gaussian process prior Recently, EP approximation method has been proposed to infer the posterior over the latent function. It can have a special hyperparameter which can treat outliers potentially. In this paper, we propose the outlier robust algorithm which alternates EP and the hyperparameter updating until convergence. We also show its usefulness with the simulation results.

The H$_{\infty}$ algorithms of the mixed weight sensitivity is used for the robust design of the reactor power control system. The mixed weight sensitivity method requires the selection of the proper weighting functions for the loop shaping in frequency domain. The complexity of the system equation and the non-convexity of the problem make it very difficult to determine the weighting functions. The genetic algorithm which is improved and hybridized with the simulated annealing is applied to determine the weighting functions. This approach permits an automatic calculation and the resultant system shows good robustness and performance.
