This paper presents an optimal robust LQ-PID controller design method for a second order system with time-delay to meet design specifications. By LQR formulation of the second order system with time-delay, tuning parameters of PID controller are related by the weighting factors Q and R of cost function. The selection of the weighting factors Q and R are chosen to satisfy such the design specifications as overshoot and settling time.

A parametrization for a linear system is presented to design a direct model reference adaptive pole placement controler. This parametrized model is one of the structured nonminimal models. The exponentially weighted least-squres algorithm is employed to estimate the control parameters. The direct adaptive controller has the exponential weighting properties by the proposed method of selecting the characteristic polynomials of the sensitivity function filters in connection with the reference models.

Recently, most of the speaker verification systems are based on the pattern recognition approach method. And performance of the pattern-classifier depends on how to classify a variety of speakers' feature parameters. In order to classify feature parameters efficiently and effectively, it is of great importance to enlarge variations between speakers and effectively measure distances between feature parameters. Therefore, this paper would suggest the positively mixed model scheme that can enlarge inter-speaker variation by searching the individual model with world model at the same time. During decision procedure, we can maximize inter-speaker variation by using the proposed mixed model scheme. We also make use of a symbol probability weighting function in this system so as to reduce vector quantization errors by measuring symbol probability derived from the distance rate of between the world codebook and individual codebook. As the result of our experiment using this method, we could halve the Detection Cost Function (DCF) of the system from $2.37\%\;to\;1.16\%$.

A new method for design of two-channel finite-impulse response(FIR) quadrature mirror-image filter(QMF) banks with low reconstruction delay using weighting function is proposed. The weighting function used in this paper is calculated from the previous updated filter coefficients vector which is adjusted from iteration to iteration in the design of QMF banks. In this paper, passband and stopband edge frequency are used in design of QMF banks with low delay characteristic in time domain instead of specific frequency interval where the artifacts occur in conventional design method. The investigation of specific frequency interval where artifacts occur can not be required by using passband and stopband edge frequency. Some comparisons of performance are made with other existing design method to demonstrate the proposed method for QMF bank design. and it was observed that the proposed method using the weighted function and passband and stopband edge frequency improves the peak reconstruction error by 0.001 [dB], the peak-to-peak passband ripple by 0.003[dB], SNR with a white noise by 7[dB] and SNR with a step input by 32[dB], but with a reduction of the computational efficiency because of updating the weighting function over the conventional method in Ref [11].

A generalization of one machine maximum lateness minimization problem is considered. There are one achine with controllable speed and n weighting jobs $J_{j}$, j=1, 2, ..., n with ambiguous duedates. Introducing fuzzy formulation, a membership function of the duedate associated with each job $J_{j}$, which describes the satisfaction level with respect to completion time of $J_{j}$. Thus the duedates are not constants as in conventional scheduling problems but decision variables reflecting the fuzzy circumstance of the job completing. We develop the polynomial time algorithm to find an optimal schedule and jobwise machine speeds, and to minimize the total sum of costs associated with jobwise machine speeds and dissatisfaction with respect to completion times of weighting jobs. jobs.

This paper proposes a new wide-band beamforming algorithm which has Gaussian weighting at nested linear array for acoustic measurement. The beamforming is performed one-shot by using all sensors simultaneously, not octave-by-octave. Gaussian weighting of frequency-dependent function is applied to each sensor before time-delay compensation so as to control the frequency receiving band of each sensor. As the results of the simulations, it is confirmed that the proposed algorithm can form the one-shot beams having uniform directivity index and also it can be applied to the broad-band acoustic measurement.

The damped least-squares inversion has become a most popular method in finding the solution in geophysical problems. Generally, the least-squares inversion is to minimize the object function which consists of data misfits and model constraints. Although both the data misfit and the model constraint take an important part in the least-squares inversion, most of the studies are concentrated on what kind of model constraint is imposed and how to select an optimum regularization parameter. Despite that each datum is recommended to be weighted according to its uncertainty or error in the data acquisition, the uncertainty is usually not available. Thus, the data weighting matrix is inevitably regarded as the identity matrix in the inversion. We present a new inversion scheme, in which the data weighting matrix is automatically obtained from the analysis of the data resolution matrix and its spread function. This approach, named 'extended active constraint balancing (EACB)', assigns a great weighting on the datum having a high resolution and vice versa. We demonstrate that by applying EACB to a two-dimensional resistivity tomography problem, the EACB approach helps to enhance both the resolution and the stability of the inversion process.

Thermal performance tests of solar thermal collectors include determination of coefficient parameters in an efficiency equation. The parameters can be estimated using regression method to minimize an objective function as sum of differences between measured efficiency data and regressed efficiency equation. However, this conventional approach doesn't consider measurement uncertainties. In this presentation, a method to determine regression parameters in the efficiency equation and uncertainties of the parameters is described with mainly mathematical expressions based on literature reviews. In the method, parameters in the equation for collector efficiency can be determined using regression analysis with a weighting factor in the objective function. The weighting factor can be uncertainties of the differences between measured and fitted efficiencies. To evaluate the approach, performance estimation of a solar collector using the efficiency equation with uncertainties is compared to the result using the conventional efficiency equation by a simulated way for a case in one of previous studies.

In this paper, we propose a novel post processing method of deconvolution for SAR images based on phase extension inverse filtering, which improves spatial resolution as well as effectively eliminates sidelobes with low computational complexity. It extends the bandwidth only to control the magnitude of the processed SAR data without distortions of the phase in frequency domain unlike the other techniques such as spatially variant apodization (SVA), and other deconvolution techniques. We compare the image processed by the proposed method with images processed by uniform weighting function, Hamming weighting function whose coefficient is 0.75, and SVA.

This paper introduces experimental results of the ride qulaity characteristics of automotive seats fixed on the vibration table that is noving simultaneously to the three-axis in a similar way to the real running condition. Vibration experiment was carried out for five different automotive seats and four Korean individuals. The assessment of the ride quality characteristics for each seat and indiviual was made not only from the analysis of vibration measurements but also from the evaluation of weighied vibration signals, which were obtained using the frequency weighting function and the multiplication factor dependent on the position and axis of vibration exposure to wehole-body. The usefulness of those assessment results in analysis of the ride quality of seats is discussed and their limitation is also pointed out in this paper.
