Practical ambient excitations of engineering structures usually do not comply with the stationary-white-noise assumption in traditional operational modal analysis methods due to heavy traffic, wind guests, and other disturbances. In order to eliminate spurious modes induced by non-white noise inputs, the improved stochastic subspace identification based on a delay index is proposed in this paper for a representative kind of stationary non-white noise ambient excitations, which have nonzero autocorrelation values near the vertical axis. It relaxes the stationary-white-noise assumption of inputs by avoiding corresponding unqualified elements in the Hankel matrix. Details of the improved stochastic subspace identification algorithms and determination of the delay index are discussed. Numerical simulations on a four-story frame and laboratory vibration experiments on a simply supported beam have demonstrated the accuracy and reliability of the proposed method in eliminating spurious modes under non-white noise ambient excitations.

Two modified versions of subspace iteration method using accelerated starting vectors are proposed to efficiently calculate free vibration modes of structures. Proposed methods employ accelerated Lanczos vectors as starting iteration vectors in the subspace iteration method. To investigate the efficiency of proposed methods, two numerical examples are presented.

In this paper, a new multi-group neutron-gamma transport calculation code system STRAUM-MATXST for complicated geometrical problems is introduced and its development status including numerical tests is presented. In this code system, the MATXST (MATXS-based Cross Section Processor for S_N Transport) code generates multi-group neutron and gamma cross sections by processing MATXS format libraries generated using NJOY and the STRAUM (S_N Transport for Radiation Analysis with Unstructured Meshes) code performs multi-group neutron-gamma coupled transport calculation using tetrahedral meshes. In particular, this work presents the recent implementation and its test results of the Krylov subspace methods (i.e., Bi-CGSTAB and GMRES(m)) with preconditioners using DSA (Diffusion Synthetic Acceleration) and TSA (Transport Synthetic Acceleration). In addition, the Krylov subspace methods for accelerating the energy-group coupling iteration through thermal up-scatterings are implemented with new multi-group block DSA and TSA preconditioners in STRAUM.

For solving symmetric systems of linear equations, it is shown that a new Krylov subspace method can be obtained. The new approach is one of the projection methods, and we call it the projection method for convenience in this paper. The projection method maintains the residual vector like simpler GMRES, symmetric QMR, SYMMLQ, and MINRES. By studying the quasiminimal residual method, we show that an extended projection method and the scaled symmetric QMR method are equivalent.

Voice activity detectors (VAD) are important in wireless communication and speech signal processing, In the conventional VAD methods, an expression for the likelihood ratio test (LRT) based on statistical models is derived in discrete Fourier transform (DFT) domain, Then, speech or noise is decided by comparing the value of the expression with a threshold, This paper presents a new statistical VAD method based on a signal subspace approach, The probabilistic principal component analysis (PPCA) is employed to obtain a signal subspace model that incorporates probabilistic model of noisy signal to the signal subspace method, The proposed approach provides a novel decision rule based on LRT in the signal subspace domain, Experimental results show that the proposed signal subspace model based VAD method outperforms those based on the widely used Gaussian distribution in DFT domain.

This paper presents the Campbell diagram analysis of the rotordynamic system using the full order model (FOM) and the reduced order model (ROM) techniques to determine the critical speeds, identify the stability and reduce the computational time. Due to the spin-speed-dependent matrices (e.g., centrifugal stiffening matrix), several model order reduction (MOR) techniques may be considered, such as the modal superposition (MS) method and the Krylov subspace-based MOR techniques (e.g., Ritz vector (RV), quasi-static Ritz vector (QSRV), multifrequency quasi-static Ritz vector (MQSRV), multifrequency/ multi-spin-speed quasi-static Ritz vector (MMQSRV) and the combined Ritz vector & modal superposition (RV+MS) methods). The proposed MMQSRV method in this study is extended from the MQSRV method by incorporating the rotational-speed-dependent stiffness matrices into the Krylov subspace during the MOR process. Thus, the objective of this note is to respond to the question of whether to use the MS method or the Krylov subspace-based MOR technique in establishing the Campbell diagram of the shaft-disc-blade assembly systems in three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis (FEA). The Campbell diagrams produced by the FOM and various MOR methods are presented and discussed thoroughly by computing the norm of relative errors (ER). It is found that the RV and the MS methods are dominant at low and high rotating speeds, respectively. More precisely, as the spinning velocity becomes large, the calculated ER produced by the RV method is significantly increased; in contrast, the ER produced by the MS method is smaller and more consistent. From a computational point of view, the MORs have substantially reduced the time computing considerably compared to the FOM. Additionally, the verification of the 3D FE rotordynamic model is also provided and found to be in close agreement with the existing solutions.

Detecting outliers among high-dimensional data encounters a challenging problem of screening the variables since relevant information is often contained in only a few of the variables. Otherwise, when a number of irrelevant variables are included in the data, the distances between all observations tend to become similar which leads to making the degree of outlierness of all observations alike. The subspace outlier detection method overcomes the problem by measuring the degree of outlierness of the observation based on the relevant subsets of the entire variables. In this paper, we survey recent subspace outlier detection techniques, classifying them into three major types according to the subspace selection method. And we summarize the techniques of each type based on how to select the relevant subspaces and how to measure the degree of outlierness. In addition, we introduce some computing tools for implementing the subspace outlier detection techniques and present results from the simulation study and real data analysis.

The solution of large sparse linear systems is one of the most important problems in large scale scientific computing. Among the many methods developed, the preconditioned Krylov subspace methods are considered the preferred methods. Selecting a suitable preconditioner with appropriate parameters for a specific sparse linear system presents a challenging task for many application scientists and engineers who have little knowledge of preconditioned iterative methods. The prediction of ILU type preconditioners was considered in [27] where support vector machine(SVM), as a data mining technique, is used to classify large sparse linear systems and predict best preconditioners. In this paper, we apply the data mining approach to the sparse approximate inverse(SAI) type preconditioners to find some parameters with which the preconditioned Krylov subspace method on the linear systems shows best performance.

In this paper, several modal identification techniques for output-only structural systems are extensively investigated. The methods considered are the power spectral method, the frequency domain decomposition method, the Ibrahim time domain method, the eigensystem realization algorithm, and the stochastic subspace identification method. Generally, the power spectral method is most widely used in practical area, however, the other methods may give better estimates particularly for the cases with closed modes and/or with large measurement noise. Example analyses were carried out on typical structural systems under three different loading cases, and the identification performances were examined throught the comparisons between the estimates by various methods.

센서 array 신호처리에서 DOA(direction of arrival)의 추정에 사용되고 있는 root-MUSIC, TLS-ESPRIT 등과 같은 고해상도 스펙트럼 추정 기법들은 과다한 연산량으로 인하여 실시간 구현이 어렵고, 신호들의 DOA가 근접한 경우에서는 추적 성능이 매우 불안정하게 된다. 이러한 문제점에 대한 대안으로 여러 형태의 부공간 추적 개념을 사용하는 수치기법이 제안되어 왔다 [2], [4], [6]. 본 논문에서는 이들 부공간 추정 기법들을 LS-ESPRIT 기법에 접목하여 그 성능을 비교하고, 개선 방안을 제시하였다.
