In the field of prosthesis arm control, tile pattern classification of the EMG signal is a required basis process and also the estimation of force from col looted EMG data is another necessary duty. But unfortunately, what we've got is not real force but an EMG signal which contains the information of force. This is the reason why he estimate the force from the EMG data. In this paper, when we handle the EMG signal to estimate the force, spatial prewhitening process is applied from which the spatial correlation between the channels are removed. And after the orthogonal transformation, which is used in the force estimation process the transformed signal is inputed into the probabilistic model for pattern classification. To verify the different results of the multiple channels, SNR(signal to noire ratio) function is introduced.

무선 센서 네트워크에서 음향 표적의 식별은 환경 감시, 침입 감시, 다중 표적 분리 등에서 많이 연구된다. 무선 센서 네트워크의 센서 노드에서 사용하는 기존의 신호 처리기법은 표적으로부터 수신된 신호의 에너지를 계산하여 표적의 존재 유무만을 기지국으로 전송하는 방법과 수신 신호를 압축하여 전송하는 방법이 많이 사용되었다. 전자의 경우 표적의 감시를 위한 무선 센서 네트워크에서는 표적의 정보가 한정적이므로 적합하지 않고 후자의 경우는 센서 노드에서의 신호처리 및 전송에 소모되는 에너지가 높아 센서의 생존시간이 줄어들게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 표적의 감시를 위한 무선 센서 네트워크에서 필요한 시간정보와 표적의 주파수 정보를 포함하는 센서 노드에서의 특징 추출 기법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 웨이블릿 변환을 이용하여 추출된 웨이블릿 상수에서 표적의 시간 정보와 잡음이 제거된 표적의 식별 정보를 추출함으로서 센서 노드에서 에너지 효율적인 신호처리를 구현하고 추출된 특징을 전송하여 통신에 소모되는 에너지를 원신호 대비 28%로 줄이는 알고리듬을 제안한다.

제트 엔진 변조(jet engine modulation: JEM) 신호는 제트 엔진 고유 정보인 날개 수를 제공하기 때문에 HRRP(High-Range Resolution Profile), ISAR(Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar)와 함께 표적 인식 분야에서 널리 이용된다. 제트 엔진의 날개 수를 얻기 위해서는 날개 수에 비례하는 chopping 주파수를 추출하는 것이 중요하다. 기존의 chopping 주파수 추출 방법은 초기 문턱값(threshold)를 정의하고, 이를 줄여가며, chopping peak를 탐지하는 방법을 사용한다. 하지만 이러한 탐지 방법은 반복적 찾음에 따라 신호에 따라 시간이 많이 소요되는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 MUSIC(MUltiple SIgnal Classification) 알고리즘을 이용하여 chopping 주파수를 추출하는 것을 제안한다. 주어진 JEM 신호에 MUSIC 알고리즘을 적용하여 chopping 주파수를 찾아 날개 수 후보군을 정하고, 후보군들의 점수를 위한 다른 chopping 주파수 추출에도 MUSIC 알고리즘을 적용하도록 한다. 반복적으로 찾는 기존의 탐지 알고리즘과 달리, 한번에 찾아내기 때문에 정확한 chopping 주파수를 찾을 뿐만 아니라, 계산 시간도 줄일 수 있음을 입증하였다.

This study presents a human sensibility evaluation method using neural network and multiple-template method on electroencephalogram(EEG). We used a multi-layer perceptron type neural network as the sensibility classifier using EEG signal. For our research objective, 10-channel EEG signals are collected from the healthy subjects. After the necessary preprocessing is performed on the acquired signals, the various EEG parameters are estimated and their discriminating performance is evaluated in terms of pattern classification capability. In our study, Linear Prediction(LP) coefficients are utilized as the feature parameters extracting the characteristics of EEG signal, and a multi-layer neural network is used for indicating the degree of human sensibility. Also, the estimation for human comfortableness is performed by varying temperature and humidity environment factors and our results showed that the proposed scheme achieved good performances for evaluation of human sensibility.

The Angle-of-Arrival (AOA) estimation in real time is one of core technologies for the real-time tracking system, such as a radar or a satellite. Although AOA estimation algorithms for various antenna types have been studied, most of them are for the single-shaped array antenna suitable to the specific frequency. In this paper, we propose the cascade AOA estimation algorithm for the combined array antenna with Uniform Rectangular Frame Array (URFA) and Uniform Circular Array (UCA), with the excellent performance for various frequencies. The proposed technique is consisted of Capon for roughly finding AOA groups with multiple signal AOAs and Beamspace Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) for estimating the detailed signal AOA in the AOA group, for the combined array antenna. In addition, we provide computer simulation results for verifying the estimation performance of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we address the problem of closely spaced source localization using sensor array processing. In particular, the performance efficiency (measured in terms of the root mean square error) of the unconditional maximum likelihood (UML) algorithm for estimating the direction of arrival (DOA) of near-field sources is evaluated. Four parameters are considered in this evaluation: angular separation among sources, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), number of snapshots, and number of sources (multiple sources). Simulations are conducted to illustrate the UML performance to compute the DOA of sources in the near-field. Finally, results are also presented that compare the performance of the UML DOA estimator with the existing multiple signal classification approach. The results show the capability of the UML estimator for estimating the DOA when the angular separation is taken into account as a critical parameter. These results are consistent in both low SNR and multiple-source scenarios.

A generalization of null-spectrum for use in the estimation of directions of arrival of signal sources is considered in this paper. The upper and lower bounds of the generalized null-spectrum, the maximum and minimum null-spectra, are also derived. We observed that the maximum null-spectrum has higher resolution capability than other null-spectra including the two well-known null-spectra, the multiple signal classification null-spectrum and the Min-Norm null-spectrum.

본 논문에서는 텍스쳐가 지니고 있는 일반적인 속성 거침, 부드러움의 특성을 분석해서 영상에 내재된 텍스쳐를 자동으로 분석하고 분류하는 텍스쳐 인식 시스템을 제안한다. 본 연구는 텍스쳐 영상이 지닌 그레이 레벨의 공간적인 의존성을 이용한 통계적 분석에 기반 한 것으로 모멘트와 동차성의 차를 이용해서 텍스쳐의 일반적인 속성을 검출하기 때문에 텍스쳐의 구조형태에 크게 영향을 받지 않는 이점을 가진다. 제안한 시스템의 성능 평가를 위해서 다양한 텍스쳐 영상에 제안한 방법을 적용하고, 성공적인 결과를 보인다.

The condition of tire tread is a key parameter closely related to the driving safety of a vehicle, which affects the contact force of the tire for braking, accelerating and cornering. The major factor influencing the contact force is tread wear, and the more tire tread wears out, the higher risk of losing control of a vehicle exits. The tire tread condition is generally checked by visual inspection that can be easily forgotten. In this paper, we propose the intelligent tire (iTire) system that consists of an acceleration sensor, a wireless signal transmission unit and a tread classifier. In addition, we also presents classification algorithm that transforms the acceleration signal into the frequency domain and extracts the features of several frequency bands as inputs to an artificial neural network. The artificial neural network for classifying tire wear was designed with an Multiple Layer Perceptron (MLP) model. Experiments showed that tread wear classification accuracy was over 80%.

Recently, causality analysis of source time series extracted from EEG or MEG signals is becoming of great importance in human brain mapping studies and noninvasive diagnosis of various brain diseases. Two approaches have been widely used for the analyses: one is independent component analysis (ICA), and the other is multiple signal classification (MUSIC). To the best of our knowledge, however, any comparison studies to reveal the difference of the two approaches have not been reported. In the present study, we compared the performance of the two different techniques, ICA and MUSIC, especially focusing on how accurately they can estimate and separate various brain electrical signals such as linear, nonlinear, and chaotic signals without a priori knowledge. Results of the realistic simulation studies, adopting directed transfer function (DTF) and Granger causality (GC) as measures of the accurate extraction of source time series, demonstrated that the MUSIC-based approach is more reliable than the ICA-based approach.
