In this study, a conventional pipeline unsteady friction model has been integrated into Levenberg Marquardt method to calibrate friction coefficient in a pipeline system. The method of characteristics has been employed as the modeling platform for the frequency dependant model of unsteady friction. In order to obtain Hessian and Jacobian matrix for optimization, the direct differentiation of pressure to friction factor was calculated and sensitivities to friction for heads and discharges were formulated for implementation to the integration constant in the characteristic method. Using a hypothetical simple pipeline system, time series of pressure, introduced by a sudden valve closure, were obtained for various Reynolds numbers. Convergency in fiction factors were evaluated both in steady and unsteady friction models. The comparison of calibration performance between the proposed method and genetic algorithm indicates that faster and stabler behaviour of Levenberg Marquardt method than those of evolutionary calibration.

This paper introduces the kinematic calibration method to improve the positioning accuracy of a parallel mechanism. Since all the actuators in the parallel mechanism are controlled simultaneously toward the target position, the volumetric errors originated from each motion element are too complicated. Therefore, the exact evaluation of the error sources of each motion element and its calibration is very important in terms of volumetric errors. In the calibration processes, the measurement of the errors between commands and trajectories is necessary in advance. To do this, a digitizer was used for the data acquisition in 3 dimensional space rather than arbitrary planar error data. After that, the optimization process that was used for reducing the motion errors were followed. Consequently, Levenberg-Marquart algorithm as well as the error data acquisition method turned out effective for the purpose of the calibration of the parallel mechanism.

Face recognition is a science of automatically identifying individuals based their unique facial features. In order to avoid overfitting and reduce the computational reduce the computational burden, a new face recognition algorithm using PCA-fisher linear discriminant (PCA-FLD) and fuzzy radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) is proposed in this paper. First, face features are extracted by the principal component analysis (PCA) method. Then, the extracted features are further processed by the Fisher's linear discriminant technique to acquire lower-dimensional discriminant patterns, the processed features will be considered as the input of the fuzzy RBFNN. As a widely applied algorithm in fuzzy RBF neural network, BP learning algorithm has the low rate of convergence, therefore, an improved learning algorithm based on Levenberg-Marquart (L-M) for fuzzy RBF neural network is introduced in this paper, which combined the Gradient Descent algorithm with the Gauss-Newton algorithm. Experimental results on the ORL face database demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has satisfactory performance and high recognition rate.

In this paper, we proposed the obstacle avoidance system using a single camera image and LM(Levenberg-Marquart) neural network fuzzy controller. According to a robot technology adapt to various fields of industry and public, the robot has to move using self-navigation and obstacle avoidance algorithms. When the robot moves to target point, obstacle avoidance is must-have technology. So in this paper, we present the algorithm that avoidance method based on fuzzy controller by sensing data and image information from a camera and using the LM neural network to minimize the moving error. And then to verify the system performance of the simulation test.

많은 비전 응용에서 카메라의 광축은 영상 평면과 직교한다는 가정을 한다. 그러나 가정아래 전통적인 왜곡 영상 보정 방법은 렌즈의 방사(radial) 왜곡과 이탈(decentering) 왜곡만을 고려하고 있다. 그러나 렌즈의 광축(optical axis)과 영상 켈리브레이션 평면이 직교하지 않을 경우는 평면 투명 변환과 카메라 자체의 렌즈 왜곡이 복합되어 나타나게 되므로 기존 방법만으로는 이러한 복합왜곡을 보정할 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 일방 방사왜곡 뿐만 나이라 평면 투명변환과 렌즈왜곡이 동시 존재하는 영상 시스템에서도 적용 가능한 왜곡 영상 자동 보정 방법을 제한한다. 제안한 복합 왜곡 모델은 평면 투명 변환 모델과 렌즈의 방사 왜곡 모델로부터 유도하고, 계수 추출 알고리듬은 비 선형 최소화 기법인 Levenberg-Marquart 방법에 기반을 둔다. 실험은 이상형 격자 영상에 임의 왜곡 계수를 적용한 영상과 WebCam 카메라의 실제 왜곡 영상을 가지고 실시하였고, 기존 방법과 제안한 방법의 보정율을 비교 평가하였다. 실험결과 제안한 방법은 렌즈 왜곡만 있는 경우에도 기존 방법보다 우수하였으며, 복합왜곡 환경에서도 97% 이상의 보정율로 아주 견고하게 적용 가능한 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, we developed reflection tomography inversion algorithm using Straight Ray Technique (SRT) which can calculate travel time easily and fast for complex geological structure. The inversion process begins by setting the initial velocity model as a constant velocity model that hat only impedance boundaries. The inversion process searches a layer-interface structure model that is able to explain the given data satisfactorily by inverting to minimize data misfit. For getting optimal solution, we used Gauss-Newton method that needed constructing the approximate Hessian matrix. We also applied the Marquart-Levenberg regularization method to this inversion process to prevent solution diverging. The ability of the method to resolve typical target structures was tested in a synthetic salt dome inversion. Using the inverted velocity model, we obtained the migration image close to that of the true velocity model.
