A reliability based design approach of the tunnel reinforcement with umbrella arch method was considered to better represent the uncertainties of the weak rock properties around the tunnel. For this, a machine learning approach called an Adaptive Support Vector Machine (ASVM) together with the limit equilibrium method were introduced to minimize the iteration numbers during the classification training of the tunnel stability. The proposed method was compared with the results of typical Monte Carlo simulations. It was concluded that the ASVM was very efficient and accurate to calculate the probability of failure having auxiliary umbrella arches and uncertain material properties of the tunnel. Future work will be concentrated on the refinement of the fast adaptation of the SVM classification so that the minimum number of numerical analyses can be used where the limit solution is not available.

This paper presents an adaptive feedback linearization control scheme for induction motors with simultaneous variation of rotor and stator resistances. Two typical modeling techniques, rotor flux model and stator flux model, have been developed and successfully applied to the controller design and adaptive observer design, respectively. By using stator fluxes as states, over-parametrization in adaptive control can be prevented and control strategy can be developed without the need of nonlinear transformation. It also decrease the relative degree for the flux modulus by one, thereby, yielding, a simple control algorithm. However, when this method is used for flux observer, it cannot guarantee the convergence of flux. Similarly, the rotor flux model may be appropriate for observers, but it is not so for adaptive controllers. In addition, if these two existing methods are merged into overall adaptive control system, it brings about structural complexies. In this paper, we did not use these two modeling methods, and opted for the airgap flux model which takes on only the positive aspects of the existing rotor flux model and stator flux model and prevents structural complexity from occuring. Through theoretical analysis by using Lyapunov's direct method, simulations, and actual experiments, it is shown that stator and rotor resistances converge to their actual values, flux is well estimated, and torque and flux are controlled independently with the measurements of rotor speed, stator currents, and stator voltages. These results were achieved under the persistent excitation condition, which is shown to hold in the simulation.

Lee(2009) proposed the boundary-adaptive despeckling method using a Bayesian model which is based on the lognormal distribution for image intensity and a Markov random field(MRF) for image texture. This method employs the Point-Jacobian iteration to obtain a maximum a posteriori(MAP) estimate of despeckled imagery. The boundary-adaptive algorithm is designed to use less information from more distant neighbors as the pixel is closer to boundary. It can reduce the possibility to involve the pixel values of adjacent region with different characteristics. The boundary-adaptive scheme was comprehensively evaluated using simulation data and the effectiveness of boundary adaption was proved in Lee(2009). This study, as an extension of Lee(2009), has suggested a modified iteration algorithm of MAP estimation to enhance computational efficiency and to combine classification. The experiment of simulation data shows that the boundary-adaption results in yielding clear boundary as well as reducing error in classification. The boundary-adaptive scheme has also been applied to high resolution Terra-SAR data acquired from the west coast of Youngjong-do, and the results imply that it can improve analytical accuracy in SAR application.

This paper presents a modified adaptive control scheme that improves the transient performance of the overall system while maintaining the asymptotic convergence of the output error. The proposed control scheme is characterized as the added outer dynamic feedback loop on the conventional adaptive control scheme. This control scheme enables various robust control methods that were developed for standard model reference adaptive controllers to be applied to the proposed controller. In contrast with the modified adaptive controllers that use augmented errors to provide additional dynamic feedback, the proposed controller uses tracking error directly, thereby reducing the tracking error significantly in the transient state and making the error insensitive to noise.

In this paper, an adaptive precompensator, which can reduce the distortion of a Wiener system effectively, is proposed. The previous techniques for adaptive precompensation, based on the Volterra series modeling to compensate the distortion of a nonlinear system, are not suitable for real-time implementation due to high computational burden and slow convergence burden and slow convergence rate. This paper presents an adaptive precompensation technique for the class of nonlinear subsystem, referred to as Wiener system. An adaptive algorithm for adjusting the parameters of a precompensator, structured by a hammerstein model, is derived using the stochastic gradient method. Also, an adaptive precompensatin technique which can effectively reduce nonlinear distortion in μ-law type of saturation characteristics is proposed. The validity of the proposed algorithm is confirmed through simulation by applying it to known Wiener systmes and a typical loudspeaker model.

A New fuzzy adaptive controller which is able to solve the problems of classical adaptive controllers and conventional fuzzy adaptive controllers is suggested in this paper. The architecture of a fuzzy adaptive controller using the robust property of a fuzzy controller is explained. A design procedure which can be carried out mathematically and systematically from the model of an objective system is suggested, and related mathematical theorems and their proofs are also given. The performance of the proposed adaptive control algorithm is analyzed through a design example and a DC motor control simulation.

The development of noise robust speech processing systems is becoming increasingly important as speech technology is currently widely applied in real world applications. Recently, to resolve such a noise problem, adaptive noise canceller(ANC) is frequently used, which is based upon adaptive filters. The adaptive recursive filters perform better than adaptive non-recursive filters due to the added poles, but the stability may be severely threatened. But these problems of adaptive recursive filters was solved by ACHARF algorithm. This paper presents a method which combines speaker verification system with ANC(Adaptive Noise Canceller) using the ACHARF algorithm. In the front-end stage, ANC is adopted to suppress the additive noise imposed on the speech signal. The results show that the performance of speaker verification system becomes better than before.

In this paper, it Is presented a new scheme of adaptive-neuro control system to implement real-time control of robot manipulator. Unlike the well-established theory for the adaptive control of linear systems, there exists relatively little general theory for the adaptive control of nonlinear systems. Adaptive control technique is essential for providing a stable and robust performance for application of robot control. The proposed neuro control algorithm is one of learning a model based error back-propagation scheme using Lyapunov stability analysis method. Through simulation, the proposed adaptive-negro control scheme is proved to be a efficient control technique for real-time control of robot system using DSPs.

A hydraulic system is difficult to keep the performance due to non-linearity, load pressure which changes according to working condition and system parameter variation, the requirement of control algorithm has been risen in order to satisfy them. An adaptive control is a control method which is suggested to achieve a control object though plant characteristics change. In spite of the case that plant characteristics and the degree of variation are difficult to grasp, adaptive control can keep the characteristics of closed-loop system regularly. In this study GMVAC(generalized minimum variance adaptive control) combined with output error feedback is proposed in order to solve problems of non-minimum phase, vibration and overshoot in initial response of the plant. The control performance according to the variation of characteristics of the plant is evaluated by changing the supply pressure only.

This paper highlights the comparison of a proposed methods named adaptive undervoltage load shedding based PTSI techniques for undervoltage load shedding and two previous methods named Fixed Shed Fixed Delay (FSFD) and Variable Shed Variable Delay (VSVD) for avoiding voltage collapse. There are three main area considerations in load shedding schemes as the amount of load to be shed, the timing of load shedding event, and the location where load shed is to be shed. The proposed method, named as adaptive UVLS based PTSI seem to be most appropriate among the uncoordinated schemes. From the simulation result can be shown the Adaptive UVLS based PTSI give faster response, accurate and very sensitive control for the UVLS control technique. This technique is effectively when calculating the amount to be shed. Therefore, it is possible to bring the voltage to the threshold value in one step. Thus, the adaptive load shedding can effectively reduce the computational time for control strategy.
