Recently, the development of computer achieves a system which is similar to the mechanics of human visual system. The 3-dimensional measurement using monocular vision system must be achieved a camera calibration. So far, the camera calibration technique required reference target in a scene. But, these methods are inefficient because they have many calculation procedures and difficulties in analysis. Therefore, this paper proposes a native method that without reference target in a scene. We use the grid type frame with different line widths. This method uses vanishing point concept that possess a rotation parameter of the camera and perspective ration that perspect each line widths into a image. We confirmed accuracy of calibration parameter estimation through experiment on the algorithm with a grid paper with different line widths.

In estimating the azimuth of regional earthquakes with single -station three - component data, in some cases the result is dependent on the selection of waveforms, making the measurement subjective and inconvenient in automatic detection. In this paper an alternative approach is proposed in which the azimuth is measured from quite a long wave train by time - direction stacking technique. Test with digital waveform data from Korean seimic stations shows that the simple algorithm seems to be able to give a better estima- tion of azimuth of earthquakes at regional distances.

Monopulse technique has been widely used for a bearing estimation of a desired signal. This method can estimate the bearing of the signal with only one pulse, so computational load and complexity are low and its processes are simple. But if the desired signal incidents with interferences or multiple signals exist in the beams, the method fails to estimate correct signal angle. To solve this problem, the method to use adaptive array was proposed. In conventional adaptive array methods, sum beam was formed with fixed weights and ifference beam was formed with adaptive weights determined to minimize beamformer output power with one or more linear constraints, or an algorithm to minimize each sum beam and difference beams simultaneously using adaptively formed one basic beam. Theroretical analyses and simulation results show that the performance of the proposed method is superior to that of conventional algorithms.

A finite element technique for the time dependent large structural problems is presented. It is based on the error estimation for the bases of solution spaces. An a-posteriori energy norm of residual error serves as the error indicator. Mode shapes which are calculated by scaling the Ritz vectors are applied to discretize the continuous spatial domain. Finally, the performance of the proposed methods is demonstrated by solving simple examples.

Brushless DC Motor(PM BLDCM) is widely used in industrial applications due to its high efficiency and power density. In order to increase reliability and reduce system cost, this paper studies particularly applicable method for sensorless PM BLDCM drive system. The resulting third harmonic signal keeps a constant phase relationship with the rotor flux for any motor speed and load condition, and is practically free of noise that can be introduced by the inverter switching, making this a robust sensing method. As a result, the method described here is not sensitive to filtering delays, allowing the motor to achieve a good performance over a wide speed range. In addition, a simple starting method and a speed estimation approach are also proposed.

We study a free boundary problem satisfying Bernoulli type boundary condition along which the gradient of a piecewise harmonic solution jumps zero to a given constant value. In such problem, the free boundary splits the domain into two regions, the zero set and the harmonic region. Our main interest is to identify the global shape and the location of the zero set. In this paper, we find the lower and the upper bound of the zero set. In a convex domain, easier estimation of the upper bound and faster disk test technique are given to find a rough shape of the zero set. Also a simple proof on the convexity of zero set is given for a connected zero set in a convex domain.

Multimedia applications and especially encoded video services, are expected to playa major role in the 3rd generation (3G) and beyond mobile communication systems. Given that future service providers are expected to provide video applications at various price and quality levels, quick and economically affordable methods for preparing/encoding the offering media at various qualities are necessary to be developed. This paper presents a method for objective evaluation of the perceived quality of MPEG­4 video content, based on a quantification of subjective assessments. Showing that subjectively derived perceived quality of service (PQoS) vs. bit rate curves can be successfully approximated by a group of exponential functions, the proposed method exploits a simple objective metric, which is obtained from the mean frame rate vs. bit rate curves of an encoded clip. The validity of this metric is assessed by comparing subjectively derived PQoS results to the corresponding ones, which come from the proposed objective method, showing that the proposed technique provides satisfactory PQoS estimation.

This paper presents a technique for localization of a mobile robot using sonar sensors. Localization is the continual provision of knowledges of position that are deduced from its a priori position estimation. The environment of a robot is modeled by a two-dimensional grid map. We define a physically based sonar sensor model and employ an extended Kalman filter to estimate positions of the robot. Since the approach does not rely on an exact geometric model of an object, it is very simple and offers sufficient generality such that integration with concurrent mapping and localizing can be achieved without major modifications. The performance and simplicity of the approach are demonstrated with the results produced by sets of experiments using a mobile robot equipped with sonar sensors.

A simple and effective dead time compensation scheme for a PWM inverter-fed permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive using the model reference adaptive control (MRAC) and coordinate transformation is presented. The basic concept is to first transform a time-varying disturbance caused by the dead time and inverter nonlinearity into unknown constant or slowly-varying one by the coordinate transformation, and then use the MRAC design technique to estimate this parameter in the stationary reference frame. Since the MRAC scheme is a suitable way of estimating such a parameter, the control performance can be significantly improved as compared with the conventional observer-based method tracking time-varying parameters. In the proposed scheme, the disturbance voltage caused by the dead time is effectively estimated and compensated by on-line basis without any additional circuits nor existing disadvantages as in the conventional methods. The asymptotic stability is proved and the effectiveness of the proposed scheme is verified.

A parallel analog-to digital converter with neuron-like elements is designed and optically implemented. Its operation principle is based on the simultaneous estimation of bit values for a given analog input. The architecture of the proposed analog-to-digital converter is simpler than that of an earlier one designed by the energy minimization technique, and its digital output is independent of the initial state. Mixed binary-to-full binary converters are also designed by using out analog-to-digital converters as basic computing elements. These converters have simple structures and fast conversion times compared with earlier ones.
