This paper concerns the implementation of a digital neural network which performs the high speed operation of Hopfield model's arithmetic operation. It is also designed to use a look-up table and produce floating point arithmetic of nonlinear function with high speed operation. The arithmetic processing of Hopfleld is able to describe the matrix-vector operation, which is adaptable to design the array processor because of its recursive and iterative operation .The proposed method is expected to be applied to the field of real neural networks because of the realization of the current VLSI techniques.

Neural network based AI computing is a promising technology that reflects the recognition and decision operation of human beings. Early AI computing processors were composed of GPUs and CPUs; however, the dramatic increment of a floating point operation requires an energy efficient AI processor with a highly parallelized architecture. In this paper, we analyze the trends in processor architectures for AI computing. Some architectures are still composed using GPUs. However, they reduce the size of each processing unit by allowing a half precision operation, and raise the processing unit density. Other architectures concentrate on matrix multiplication, and require the construction of dedicated hardware for a fast vector operation. Finally, we propose our own inAB processor architecture and introduce domestic cutting-edge processor design capabilities.

This paper presents a development of the recoil rod pull force measurement system suing the load cell with a sleeve normally available in the recoil system test. The commercial load cell cannot be used in the test of recoil system floating the breach contact point freely in the air. The load cell is designed and manufactured to meet the recoil system test condition. Theoretical analysis and experimental results show that the accuracy of the developed measurement system is within $\pm$0.5%. We notice that the measurement technique proposed in this paper is accurate and useful in the recoil rod pull force measurement of the recoil system.

This paper proposes a novel algorithm for hybrid lossless audio coding, which employs integer discrete cosine transform. The proposed algorithm divides the input signal into frames of a proper length, decorrelates the framed data using the integer DCT and finally entropy-codes the frame data. In particular, the adaptive Golomb-Rice coding method used for the entropy coding selects an optimal option which gives the best compression efficiency. Since the proposed algorithm uses integer operations, it significantly improves the computation speed in comparison with an algorithm using real or floating-point operations. When the coding algorithm is implemented in hardware, the system complexity as well as the power consumption is remarkably reduced. Finally, because each frame is independently coded and is byte-aligned with respect to the frame header, it is convenient to move, search, and edit the coded data.

The standard approach consists of using correlation of orthogonal functions in digital filtering, such as well-known FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) and FWT(Fast Walsh Transform). But it needs much calculations, multiplications and additions. The calculation amount is m $log_2m$ in the general case. Therefore, this requires high speed processors to calculate in real time, which can calculate floating point. This study developed improved fast Walsh transform based on dyadic-ordered fast Walsh transform, then regenerated signal flow graph of improved fast Walsh transform, and used it for digital filtering, and then measured fundamental frequency and harmonics for current and voltage signals of power system.

This paper explores the non-linear behavior of tapered beam subjected to a floating concentrated load. For applying the Bernoulli-Euler beam theory to this beam, the bending moment at any point of elastica is obtained from the final equilibrium state. By using the bending moment equation and the Bernoulli-Euler beam theory, the differential equations governing the elastica of clamped-roller beam are derived, and solved numerically. Three kinds of tapered beam types are considered. The numerical results of the non-linear behavior obtained in this study are agreed quite well to the results obtained from the laboratory-scale experiments.

This paper presents the hardware implementation of nonlinear PID controllers for the ROBOKER humanoid robot arms. To design the nonlinear PID controller on an FPGA chip, nonlinear functions as well as the conventional PID control algorithm have to be implemented by the hardware description language. Therefore, nonlinear functions such as trigonometric or exponential functions are designed on an FPGA chip. Simulation studies of the position control of humanoid arms are conducted and results are compared. Superior performances by the nonlinear PID controllers are confirmed when disturbances are present. Experiments of humanoid robot arm control tasks are conducted to confirm the performance of our hardware design and the simulation results.
