Support vector machines in biped humanoid robot are presented in this paper. The trajectory of the ZMP in biped walking robot poses an important criterion for the balance of the walking robots but complex dynamics involved make robot control difficult. We are establishing empirical relationships based on the dynamic stability of motion using SVMs. SVMs and kernel method have become very popular method for learning from examples. We applied SVM to model the practical humanoid robot. Three kinds of kernels are employed also and each result has been compared. As a result, SVM based on kernel method have been found to work well. Especially SVM with RBF kernel function provides the best results. The simulation results show that the generated ZMP from the SVM can be improve the stability of the biped walking robot and it can be effectively used to model and control practical biped walking robot.

In this paper, we propose a face detection technique for still pictures which sequentially uses a skin-color model and a support vector machine (SVM). SVM is a learning algorithm for solving the classification problem. Some studies on face detection have reported superior results of SVM over neural networks. The SVM method searches for a face in a picture while changing the size of the window. The detection accuracy and the processing time of SVM vary largely depending on the complexity of the background of the picture or the size of the face. Therefore, we apply a face candidate area detection method using a skin-color model as a preprocessing technique. We compared the method using SVM alone with that of the proposed method in respect to face detection accuracy and processing time. As a result, the proposed method showed improved processing time while maintaining a high recognition rate.

There has been substantial research into the bankruptcy prediction. Many researchers used the statistical method in the problem until the early 1980s. Since the late 1980s, Artificial Intelligence(AI) has been employed in bankruptcy prediction. And many studies have shown that artificial neural network(ANN) achieved better performance than traditional statistical methods. However, despite ANN's superior performance, it has some problems such as overfitting and poor explanatory power. To overcome these limitations, this paper suggests a relatively new machine learning technique, support vector machine(SVM), to bankruptcy prediction. SVM is simple enough to be analyzed mathematically, and leads to high performances in practical applications. The objective of this paper is to examine the feasibility of SVM in bankruptcy prediction by comparing it with ANN, logistic regression, and multivariate discriminant analysis. The experimental results show that SVM provides a promising alternative to bankruptcy prediction.

A novel method of transient stability analysis is presented in this paper. The proposed method extracts data points near the basin-of-attraction boundary and then builds a support vector machine (SVM) model learned from the generated data. The constructed SVM classifier has been shown to reduce dramatically the conservativeness of the estimated basin of attraction.

In this paper, a novel rotor flux estimation method of an induction motor using support vector machine(SVM) is presented. Two veil-known different flux models with respect to voltage and current are necessary to estimate the rotor flux of an induction motor. The theory of the SVM algorithm is based on statistical teaming theory. Training of SVH leads to a quadratic programming(QP) problem. The proposed SVM rotor flux estimator guarantees the improvement of performance in the transient and steady state in spite of parameter variation circumstance. The validity and the usefulness of Proposed algorithm are throughly verified through numerical simulation.

A cluster merging algorithm that merges convex clusters resulted by the Fuzzy Convex Clustering(FCC) method into non-convex clusters was proposed. This was achieved by proposing a fast and reliable distance measure between two convex clusters using Support Vector Machines(SVM) to improve accuracy and speed over other existing conventional methods. In doing so, it was possible to reduce cluster number without losing its representation of the data. In this paper, results for several data sets are given to show the validity of our distance measure and algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a novel a roach to improve the performance of speech/music classification for the selectable mode vocoder (SMV) of 3GPP2 using the support vector machine (SVM). The SVM makes it possible to build on an optimal hyperplane that is separated without the error where the distance between the closest vectors and the hyperplane is maximal. We first present an effective analysis of the features and the classification method adopted in the conventional SMV. And then feature vectors which are a lied to the SVM are selected from relevant parameters of the SMV for the efficient speech/music classification. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated under various conditions and yields better results compared with the conventional scheme of the SMV.

Learning vector quantization (LVQ) is a supervised learning technique that uses class information to move the vector quantizer slightly, so as to improve the quality of the classifier decision regions. In this paper we propose a selection method of initial codebook vectors for a teaming vector quantization (LVQ3) using support vector machines (SVM). The method is experimented with artificial and real design data sets and compared with conventional methods of the condensed nearest neighbor (CNN) and its modifications (mCNN). From the experiments, it is discovered that the proposed method produces higher performance than the conventional ones and then it could be used efficiently for designing nonparametric classifiers.

In this paper we propose effective speech recognizer through two recognition experiments. In general, SVM is classification method which classify two class set by finding voluntary nonlinear boundary in vector space and possesses high classification performance under few training data number. In this paper we compare recognition performance of HMM and SVM at training data number and investigate recognition performance of each feature parameter while changing feature space of MFCC using Independent Component Analysis(ICA) and Principal Component Analysis(PCA). As a result of experiment, recognition performance of SVM is better than 1:.um under few training data number, and feature parameter by ICA showed the highest recognition performance because of superior linear classification.
