A new impulse noise detection technique from gray-scale and multichannel images is presented. It is based on block correlation of the noncausal linear prediction. The linear prediction coefficients are calculated using a block of the image at one instant. These coefficients are valid within that block only and are used to predict a pixel in a sliding window within the block. The sample is predicted from its neighboring pixels, considering past and future values. The current sample is corrupted if its difference from the predicted value is bigger than a pre-defined threshold.

We deal here, with a real-world problem, which is, how to approximately cover an area by a set of antennas, that are already available and ready to use, in order to provide the infrastructure for wireless communications. We model it as a particular kind of circular cutting problem and develop a simulated annealing heuristic solving it with good performance. Our method is based upon the definition of an energy function reflecting the objective to be optimized; small values of this function correspond to local optima of good quality for our problem.

The increasing importance of Unicode for text files implies a possible doubling of data storage space and data transmission time, with a corresponding need for data compression. The approach presented in this paper aims to reduce the storage and the transmission time for Farsi text files in web-based applications and Internet. The basic idea here is to compute the most repetitive n-grams in the Farsi text and replace them by a single character. The new characters then will be placed in the user-defined sections of the Unicode and proper glyphs will be created for them. In this approach the compression will be done on the server side once and the decompression process is eliminated completely. The rendering process in the browser will do the decompression. There is no need for any additional program or add-ins for decompression to be installed on the browser or client side. The user needs only to download the proper Unicode font once. A genetic algorithm is utilized to select the most appropriate n-grams of different sizes in order to maximum the amount of compression. In the best case, we have achieved 52.26 % reduction of the file size. The method is general, and applies equally well to English and other languages.

This paper introduces a deterministic method for capturing the Pareto front in multi-objective real parameter optimization problems. It is an effort to deal with multi-objective optimization problems that were until now confronted only by stochastic algorithms, specifically evolutionary algorithms. The method is based on a theoretical result that proves the equivalence of non-dominated points to extrema of functions produced by linear combinations of the multiple objectives. The proposed method is used in order to capture the solution set of a two-objective optimization problem posed by the design requirements of an I-Beam under certain geometric and strength constraints.

Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are popular general purpose optimisation methods. According to the No Free Lunch Theorem is no inherently superior EA parametrisation possible. Therefore the support of a wide range of parameters by EA software libraries is desirable. Firstly this allows the exact specification of an EA that proved to perform well at a certain problem type. Additionally, flexible parametrisation possibilities allow the testing of a wide range of EA variants on new problems. Despite a large number of EA libraries has been developed, exists no model for the generic description of parametrisation possibilities. As explained in this paper, also the published approaches of classifying EA parameters are unsatisfactory. Starting from a missing definition of the term parameter, an a new, explicit description of the parameter elements is introduced and several categories are proposed according to which parameters can be classified. The additionally performed benchmarking of EA software shows that the abandonment of good software design and use of low-level languages for the benefit of more efficient operators is not worthwhile.

The performance of a wavelength division multiplexed network is degraded by non-linear phenomena and especially by Four-Wave Mixing (FWM). In this paper, the probability density function (pdf), of the FWM noise, both in the mark and space state is investigated using numerical Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. The results are also compared to previous studies. It is shown that the pdf of the FWM in the mark state is asymmetric.

We present a discrete fractional Gabor expansion based on the closed form discrete fractional Fourier transform. The traditional Gabor expansion represents a signal as a linear combination of time and frequency shifted basis functions. This constant-bandwidth analysis generates a rectangular time-frequency lattice which might lead to poor time-frequency localization for many signals. Proposed expansion uses a set of basis functions related to the fractional Fourier basis and generate a parallelogram-shaped tiling. Completeness and biorthogonality conditions of the new expansion are given.

This paper presents fuzzy based twin controllers for overhead crane. Instead of analyzing the complex nonlinear crane system, the proposed approach uses simple but effective way to control the crane. Twin fuzzy controller deals with the feedback information, the position of trolley crane and the swing angle of load, to suppress the sway and accelerate the speed when the crane transports the heavy load. This approach simplifies the designing procedure of crane controller; besides, the twin controller method reduces the rule number when fulfilling the fuzzy system. At last, experimental results through the crane model demonstrate the effectiveness of the scheme

Steerable filters are oriented filters generally used in vision and image processing tasks, such as texture analysis, edge detection, image data compression, motion analysis, and image enhancement. Steerable filters with oriented property can be examined as a function of both orientation and phase. In the case of correct filter set and interpolation rules, it is possible to determine the response of a filter of arbitrary orientation without applying that filter directly. In this paper, we have used steerable filters for Gelibolu region of Turkey. We have obtained the raw data from Turkish Petroluem Research Institutue (TPAO). In Gelibolu region, we have detected a paralel fault branch on the North-West of Anafartalar fault using steerable filtering techniques. The results are confirmed with TPAO seismic data. We have shown that steerable filters can be considered as a powerful comprimising approach in the evaluation of geopysical data.

Secondary structure prediction is a useful first step in understanding how the amino acid sequence of a protein determines the native state. There are many previous famous prediction methods available now, although most of them allow users to submit their queries to dedicated servers, bulk protein sequence prediction service such as the whole database sequence prediction is still not widely available or requires tedious waiting time. In order to utilize the high performance computing power in the field of protein secondary structure prediction, the author proposed a parallelized protein secondary structure prediction method namely mpiPSSP, using Message Passing Interface (MPI) on a multi-node compute cluster. mpiPSSP can self-determine the appropriate number of processors according to the size of the querying database or also run using the user-desired number of processors. As the tasks are made independent of each other, a highly scalable solution is achieved.

Data analysis is a regular massif task of applied sciences and businesses. A huge number of algorithms were developed for different kinds of data and for particular types of data analysis. Traditional theories work with traditional databases and data structures, although the paradigm of Internet doesn’t want to wait, requiring novel technologies, able to work effectively with huge amounts of data, with data flows and uncertainties. In order to process data flows two computation steps are needed. The first one outputs some local results in time $t$ using the current data, and the second one outputs the global result in time $t+1$ using the local results in time $t$ and $t+1$. The application of Neural Networks to data flows processing is considered since they have proven to be a useful tool in time series analysis. Neural Networks are applied in order to combine the local computations to get the global result. Also they can be used to output the local computations. Some examples are shown in the paper.

In order to provide QoS in group communications for real time applications such as video conferencing, reliable multicasting is used. Miscellaneous efforts have been undertaken to provide reliability on top of IP multicast. In this paper, we present a new fair share policy (FSP) that utilizes Differentiated Services to solve the problems of QoS and congestion control when reliable FEC/ARQ multicast is adopted. Simulation programs are used to evaluate the Fair Share Policy. The results should provide insights into the comparisons between homogeneous IP multicast networks, homogeneous MPLS multicast networks and heterogeneous MPLS multicast networks using the same FSP when DiffServ are adopted and when reliable FEC/ARQ multicast is considered.

This paper describes an algorithm for the construction of a certain one-dimensional cellular automaton equivalent to a given D0L system. A cellular automaton is considered equivalent to an L-system if both generates the same words in the same order. Our cellular automata produce the same words and in the same order as the given D0L system for a finite number of derivations. There is no constraint to the D0L system considered, so the method is a general algorithm and can be used as a proof for an equivalence theorem.

A time signal distribution system is an important part of several engineering assemblies being present in process controlling equipment, distributed computation systems and telecommunication networks. In order to have accurate performance, synchronous operation of these systems, composed by several nodes, needs a reliable time basis signal extracted from the line data stream in each node. When the nodes are synchronized, routing and detection can be performed, guaranteeing the correct sequence of information distribution among the several users of a shared circuit. Consequently, an auxiliary network is created inside the main circuit, a sub-network, dedicated to the distribution of the clock signals. There are different solutions for the architecture of the time distribution sub-network and choosing one of them depends on cost,precision, reliability and operational security. In this work an overview of the possible time distribution schemes is given. Additionally, a detailed study of a robust option ispresented by using the qualitative theory of differential equations. Correspondences between constitutive parameters of the network and the dynamics of the spatial phase and frequency errors are established.

The paper presents a method for multivariate time series forecasting using independent component analysis, as a preprocessing tool. The ideea of this approach is to do the forecasting in the space of independent components (sources), and then transforming back to the original time series. The forecasting can be done separately and with a different method for each component, depending on its time structure. The method has been applied in simulation, to an artificial multivariate time series with five components, generated from three sources and a randomly mixing matrix.

Model checking for reactive systems with timing constraints is described in the paper. Model of the system to be verified is given in Statecharts visual language. Timing constraints can be assigned to the states of the system. Required properties of the system can be given as system invariants and/or formulas of the branching-time temporal logic. Timing requirements are incorporated in a formula using bounded temporal operators. The proposed hierarchical verification algorithm works on-the-fly without constructing the flat state-transition graph. In the case, that the system does not hold the required property, the counter-example can be found without search entire state space.

Information technology infrastructure is critical in most organizations as it is the backbone of all operations that rely on information systems. Therefore, reliability and robustness are key issues in information technology infrastructure development. In addition, the developers need to incorporate new technology so that organization’s infrastructure meets future needs. A well-planned information technology infrastructure can adapt to changes in operations and in the environment. This paper deals with information technology infrastructure and the role of wireless technology – what it is and how it can be applied. Wireless technology is claimed to free the user from the desk. However, based on our empirical research “wireless“ is used in relatively few organizations today. We found out that wireless technology is used selectively in areas where it brings added value to operations.

The circuit simultaneously provides the three basic filter functions, namely bandpass (BP), highpass (HP) and lowpass (LP) functions. The proposed filter offers very high input and output impedances, which is important in the case of interface circuits connecting voltage-mode (VM) to current-mode (CM) circuits. SPICE simulation verification is performed.

The locations of active brain areas can be estimated from the surface recordings. We describe the localization of the sources of the brain electrical activity via spatial filtering. This method incorporates the time-frequency characteristics of the neural sources for its location. The estimation of the location of active brain area is done in non-parametric fashion. The spatial filters are implemented as weighted sum of data recorded at different sites. The weights are chosen to minimize the output of the filter subject to linear constraint. The function of the linear constraint is to pass the brain electrical signal from a specific location, while attenuating the overall variance at the output of the filter. The method exploits space time-frequency covariance matrix of the data. The proposed algorithm is suited to localizing sources of time-varying and nonstationary signals. For this reason, this paper focuses on the class of frequency modulated (FM) signals, e.g., chirp signals.

A new RC active polyphase filter section is presented. The section uses three conventional current feedback amplifiers (CFAs). The transfer function of the section has a single pole and optionally a single zero. With a cascade of this sections, any polyphase filter can be easily realized. The paper also introduces the leakage caused by element deviation and the effects of the amplifier in non-ideal case. Furthermore, non-ideal performances of the proposed filter section are tested with computer simulations.

Along the advent of Internet technology, the computing environment has been considerably changed in many application domains. The integrated supply chain of business partners for e-Commerce in cyber space is defined as Logistics Chain whenever the cooperative activities are logistics-related. Logistics Chain could be managed effectively and efficiently by cooperative technologies of logistics chain execution(LCE). In this paper, we consider an uncertainty processing for the tracing of moving object to control pick-up and delivery vehicles based on GPS/GIS/ITS along with a routing and scheduling algorithm for pick-up and delivery process to minimize service time and cost in logistics chain. Uncertainty processing is required to minimize the overall cost for efficient vehicles trajectory management. Finally, we describe the Moving Object Management System with Routing and Scheduling Engine to perform plan and control activities in postal logistics environment. And we compare our result with the result of the pick-up and delivery routing plan generated manually by postmen.

In the 2R/R converters imprecision of resistors introduces two types of error. Positive errors introduce a gap in the analog domain, while negative errors cause non-monotonicity in the input/output characteristics. Changing the resistor ratio from 2R/R to 2R+/R, with R+>R, we intentionally introduce an additional negative error in order to avoid resulting positive error gap. In this paper we propose a simple calibration of such 2R+/R converter. Simulation results confirm that even with resistors tolerance of few percents we can achieve a converter with error as low as one hundredth of a percent of full scale.

In order to provide QoS in group communications for real time applications such as video conferencing, reliable multicasting is used. Miscellaneous efforts have been undertaken to provide reliability on top of IP multicast. In this paper, we present a new fair share policy (FSP) that utilizes Differentiated Services to solve the problems of QoS and congestion control when reliable FEC multicast is adopted. Simulation programs are used to evaluate the Fair Share Policy. The results should provide insights into the comparisons between IP multicast in MPLS networks using FSP and plain IP multicasting using the same policy when DiffServ are adopted and when reliable FEC/ARQ multicast is considered.

An NPN Si/SiGe/Si double-heterojunction bipolar transistor (DHBT) and NPN Si/SiGe/SiGe single- heterojunction bipolar transistor (SiGe SHBT) structures have been simulated and their performance has been analyzed for high current applications. The performance of both the structures for current gain and cut-off frequency at high collector current density is analyzed using 2-dimensional MEDICI device simulator. A theoretical model is developed for both the structures and the predictions are observed to be in conformity with the simulated results. The comparison of results for current gain and cut-off frequency at high current densities predict better performance for the SiGe SHBT structure in comparison with the SiGe DHBT device. The improved performance of the SHBT structure is attributed to the base-collector homojunction of the structure, which prohibits the formation of retarding potential barrier at base-collector junction. This retarding potential barrier is prevalent in SiGe DHBT devices owing to valence band offset for the holes at base-collector heterojunction and degrades its high current performance.

Active Queue Management (AQM) takes a trade-off between link utilization and delay experienced by data packets. From control point of view, it is rational to regard AQM as a typical regulation system. In this paper, two types of controllers, i.e. Sliding Mode Variable Structure (SMVS) controller and optimal Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) are designed for AQM. Simulation results conform the robust performance of SMVS controller against the disturbance. At the same time, a complete comparison between SMVS and LQR controllers is made. The conclusion is that both transient and steady state performance of SMVS controller is better than that of LQR one.

In this paper, some application of computational intelligence techniques in active networking technology well be presented. Computational intelligent techniques, e.g., neural networks, fuzzy systems, neuro-fuzzy systems, and evolutionary algorithms have been successfully applied for many engineering problems. The introduction of active networking adds a high degree of flexibility in customizing the network infrastructure and introduces new functionality. Therefore, there is a clear need for investigating both the applicability of computational intelligence techniques in this new networking environment, as well as the provisions of active networking technology that computational intelligence techniques can exploit for improved operation.

The rapid growth of the Internet, the massive amount of data traffic it carries and increased demand to use the Internet for time-sensitive voice and video applications necessitates the design and utilization of effective congestion control algorithms. Existing TCP/IP protocol suite has been designed for best effort (delay tolerant) services and cannot effectively support time sensitive applications. We will use the Integrated Dynamic Congestion Control (IDCC) scheme. The problem that comes up is the lack of an effective way of dealing with congestion. On the other hand, the IDCC scheme controls the traffic using information on the status of each queue in the network. It is based on a non-linear model of the network that is generated using fluid flow considerations. The aim of this paper is to design a robust active queue management system to secure high utilization, bounded delay and loss, while the network complies with the demands each traffic class sets. To this end, we will use the H‡ control theory. Simulation �results of the proposed control action demonstrate the effectiveness of the controller in providing robust queue management system.

In this paper, a new discrete-time sliding mode approach for linear time-varying system is proposed. The proposed method guarantees that the system states are globally uniformly ultimately bounded in the presence of time-varying disturbance and uncertainly. It is also shown that the closed-loop system is globally asymptotically stable if disturbance and uncertainty are time invariant. Using the proposed control algorithm, steering control of highway vehicles is designed for a fundamentally new deriving maneuver and the tracking problem of relative lateral position is investigated. Simulation results reveal the efficiency of proposed controller.

Textile sliver drafting process has decisive influence on produced yarn quality and from the system theoretic point of view it is marked by non-linearity, distributed delays and highly oscillatory disturbance response. Similarly as most other textile manufacturing processes, this process has enjoyed almost no attention in control engineering literature. Motivated by current needs of textile manufacturing, the paper introduces a suitable mathematical model of this process and it proposes a control scheme based on internal model control approach. Due to the complexity of non-linear distributed delay model, the internal model controller is based on approximate rational model. Simulation results are given.

Diversity is a powerful communication receiver technique that provides wireless link improvement at relatively low cost. Furthermore, there are a wide range of diversity implementations, many of which are very practical and provide significant link improvement with little added cost. In this paper a well-known diversity technique, such as maximal ratio combining (MRC) is, will be investigated. This scheme will be applied in systems utilising several well known (convolutional coding-CC) and recently presented (turbo coding-TC) techniques used to combat the impact of selective fading on the OFDM system performance. Also the adaptivity technique through bit loading has been considered for a further improvement is system performance. We will demonstrate that the turbo coding scheme, especially when combined with MRC, provides sufficiently robust performance, rendering it a potential candidate for next generation broadband wireless communication systems, with the aim of providing extremely high data rate, bandwidth efficient signalling and improved quality of service (QoS).

- This paper proposes a new methodology for the estimation of ARMAX models, based on the implementation of a hybrid optimization algorithm and a corresponding estimation procedure. The specific algorithm attempts to interconnect the diverse characteristics of two entirely different optimization techniques, deterministic and stochastic, combining high convergence rate with increased reliability in the search for global optimum, and it consists of a super-positioned stochastic global search, followed by an independent deterministic procedure, in which the analytical gradients of the ARMAX model are used. The parametric, time-domain, identification problem considered in this study refers to the estimation of a SISO-ARMAX model, for the description of a half-car passive suspension system, taking into account that the excitation-response pair consists of a zero-mean white noise sequence (road profile) and a corresponding, noise corrupted, at 10% noise to signal ratio, vertical acceleration of the sprung mass.

In this work we present the framework of a new software package to carry out the classification of the state variables in a process plant in order to determine the most convenient instrumentation configuration on the basis of adequate mathematical models of plant behaviour at steady state. We have designed and developed robust and efficient techniques for each step of the categorization task, the key modules being those for observability and redundancy analysis. The individual performance of each module with both academic and industrial examples was successful, revealing comparable or even better results than other existing techniques. Key aspects, such as modularity, user-friendliness, reliability, flexibility, expansibility, functional scalability, and stand-alone capabilities, were taken into account for the design of the integrated software.

Cellular Automata (CA) represent an alternative approach to differential equations to model and simulate complex fluid dynamical systems, whose evolution depends on the local interactions of their constituent parts. A new notion of CA was developed by our research group Empedocles. It permitted to improve significantly an empirical method for modelling macroscopic phenomena, concerning surface flows. This approach was applied to lava flows, to debris flows and to pyroclastic flows. This paper presents the CA extended notion together with the improved empirical method. Examples of simulations are exhibited and compared with the real events in order to show the method efficiency.

9 458-224The continuous miniaturization and the increased complexity of today’s integrated circuits has led to a demand for faster simulation algorithms for physical processes. A method for designing a dedicated processor, which executes a cellular automaton (CA) algorithm that simulates the selected locally interacting system or physical process, using a genetic algorithm (GA), is described in this paper. An application example of the proposed method namely forest fire spreading is also presented. Starting from a CA with continuous state space which simulates the physical process, each time, the GA is used to find a CA with discrete state space, having the smallest possible lattice size and the smallest possible number of discrete states, the results of which are as close as possible to the results of the CA with continuous state space. The dedicated processor that executes the discrete CA algorithm was designed to the level of a silicon compiler output. This processor can be used as a part of a decision support system.

6 458-204In the case of computer vision or image data processing, information about the performance of a camera and photography conditions or a limitation of data analysis is very important, although they tend to be given little attention. In the derivation and rectification of the camera intrinsic parameter, which characterizes the relationship between an image coordinate and a camera coordinate in a computer vision, distortion quantity cannot be disregarded if all screens are covered, although the distortion on a screen is slight and is proper to treat it as a minute quantity. It is necessary to take pixel size into consideration in image data interpolation in Affine transformation. When there are plural categories together in a pixel within a remote sensing image, it is difficult to distinguish it into a single category. After these points, currently dealt with as minute quantities, are properly treated, the results of corrections are clearly superior to those of conventional methods.

6 458-226A recurrent problem encountered by distribute system designers is that of verifying, validating and evaluating the performance of complex software systems. The behavior of these systems generally depends on how the various software entities inter-relate and on the status of the underlying inter-network. Although many aspects of the distributed software engineering process have been addressed, there is still the need to investigate suitable simulation tools and methodologies that provide support to all seven OSI layers and are geared for modeling distributed applications over simulated inter-networks. In this paper we present such a simulation framework, illustrating its use and applicability through a number of example applications including application-level networking, mobile agent systems, GRID computing, and mobile services for 3G. Starting from the lessons learned from implementing those applications we propose a general methodology for the assessment of distributed systems and applications.

New multimedia applications that use the Internet as a communication media are pressing for the development of new technologies, such as: MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) and DiffServ, that introduce new and powerful features to the Internet backbone, as the provision of QoS (Quality of Service) capabilities. However, to obtain a true end-to-end QoS, it is not enough to implement such technologies in the network core, it becomes indispensable to extend such improvements to the access networks, what is the aim of works presently under development. To contribute with this process, a new and powerful service schema is presented herein as a mean to support a true end-to-end QoS, through the extension of MPLS. Thus, it is specified a Switched Virtual Connection (SVC) service to be used in the context of a MPLS User-to-Network Interface (MPLS UNI), that is able to efficiently establish and activate Label Switched Paths (LSP), starting from the access routers, that satisfy the QoS requirements demanded by the applications. The benefits and most important issues to be considered when using this specification are also included.

This paper presents performance analysis of an adaptive Volterra/Hybrid equalizer in a nonlinear magneto-optic data storage channel. In a data storage system, nonlinear intersymbol interference (ISI) is one of the limiting factors for high storage density. Volterra and Hybrid (combination of linear and Volterra) equalizers are proposed and developed for compensation of nonlinear ISI. The use of Volterra/Hybrid equalizers provided an extra 1.3-1.5 dB SNR gain over linear equalizers. Performance and complexity of these equalizers are compared. Convergence issues are also investigated by examining the eigenvalue spread of the covariance matrix.

Transformer fault diagnosis and repair is a complex task that includes many possible types of faults and demands special trained personnel. In this paper, Petri Nets are used for the simulation of transformer fault diagnosis process and the definition of the actions followed to repair the transformer. An oil thermometer and a Buchholz relay are used for transformer fault detection. Simulation results for the most common types of transformer faults (overloading, oil leakage, short-circuit and insulation failure) are presented. The proposed methodology aims at identifying the transformer fault and estimating the duration for transformer repair.

The purpose of this paper is to give a brief overview of cost estimating methods and cost uncertainty assessment and management techniques for complex systems. The basic cost estimating techniques, their advantages and the limitations of their use are presented. In the field of cost uncertainty, the need for more realistic estimation led estimators to abandon the traditional approach of deterministic estimates. The use of probability or possibility theory, simulation methods and heuristics for cost estimation has been widely accepted, even though there is not a common understanding about the definition of uncertainty or risk. Thus, fundamental questions about the uncertainty and its effective and practicable handling remain open

We continue the investigation into the dynamics and evolution of fuzzy rules, obtained by the fuzzification of the disjunctive normal form, and initiated for Rule 90 in Flocchini-Geurts-Mingarelli-Santoro (2000). Interest in the boolean form of Rule 110 has been tremendous since the discovery that it supports Turing-complete computation. Inspired by this, we present new results regarding the dynamics of fuzzy Rule 110 whose boolean evolution is also known to be chaotic [Wolfram (2002), p.871]. In particular, we show that in the fuzzy case with a finite support configuration all spatio-temporal sequences are aperiodic, and their convergence is strongly dependent upon their positions along key diagonals. It follows that fuzzy Rule 110 is neither chaotic nor random. It turns out that the evolution and dynamics in this case differ radically from those in fuzzy Rule 90. We will show that the dynamics of fuzzy Rule 110 make it such that every key sequence converges to interesting distinct mathematical constants that, themselves, converge to an unexpected key mathematical constant.

This article presents a novel congestion-based pricing scheme for IP networks, termed Bounded Local Adaptive Packet Pricing (BLAPP). The BLAPP scheme enables IP users to limit their expenses on routing packets by enforcing a price limit in the packet’s header. BLAPP extends the LAPP scheme in which payment is collected on a per-packet basis in each router on the packet's path. In both protocols, each router changes its price for each service level in response to its congestion at a specific output port. Finally, the BLAPP scheme is analyzed using network simulations of traffic congestions. The analysis suggests that BLAPP exhibits a correlation between user expenses and QoS properties such as RTT, especially when the network is congested. Thus, a user may control his or her QoS using payments without having to allocate network resources on a per-session basis (e.g., RSVP protocol).

This paper introduces an adaptive technique for audio watermarking. Almost all of the published audio watermarking methods report a tradeoff between audibility and detectibility, and performs well in digital environment. However, in most of the applications audio should be transmitted through the channels (in analog form) in which the detection performance relies on the strength of embedded watermark signal. This work proposes a new frequency-domain technique which allows to increase watermark strength in a data adaptive way while preserving inaudibility. The method is compatible to MPEG Layer 1 and robust to stereo-to-mono conversions.

: In this paper we introduce a fast, robust, accurate eye localization algorithm. Detecting and normalizing human faces from live video streams is the first crucial step in a face verification/recognition system. The accuracy and robustness affect the performance of the following face registration and classification. To localize face regions properly, we detect eye corners by using a corner detector and Gabor wavelets. First, by applying a corner detector in skin color regions, we dramatically reduce the candidate regions for eye corners. Extracted features are represented in a semilocal manner to increase discrimination. Then, in the set of the reduced candidates, a robust feature decision algorithm based on Gabor response analysis gives accurate eye corner locations. Experimental results on real images are presented.

In this paper bit-level systolic arrays for digitized contour derivatives estimation related to the constrained least-squares digital contour smoothing are described. The derivatives estimation is represented by linear operators defined by sparse circulant Toeplitz matrices with integer coefficients. A suitable decomposition of these matrices allows to analyse various pipelined bit-level strategies of the computation. The corresponding bit-level systolic arrays for the derivatives estimation have a simple regular structure and achieve very high throughputs. They can be used for real-time digital curves analysis.

When analyzing the reliability of a time-constrained distributed software, the Markov state space is often used. However, many evaluation methods are not fast and the size of Markov state space is very large. In this paper, we propose an approach for the reliability analysis of distributed software with time constraint. The approach proposed is based on the principle of distributed program reliability analysis, and combines the reliability-preserving reduction with breath-first manner and fast reliability evaluation algorithm (FREA). We propose a new analysis model, called Reliability Analysis with Degree-n and Redundancy Reduction (RADR), and calculate transmission time of data files needed in the file spanning tree (FST). A simple distributed time-constrained system is discussed to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed approach.

Classic designs of optical transimpedance amplifiers for p-i-n photodiode receiver circuits generally employ common-emitter or common-source input stages. In this paper, we explore the design of a new calss of high-performance "current-mode" optical transimpedance preamplifiers based on CMOS and BiCMOS common-gate and common-base input stages using a new-design approach hereafter called “total-transistor approach.” The total-transistor design approach showed high potential in significantly optimizing performance features. Simulated results of a 7.5 GHz common-base, 3.6 GHz common-gate, and 3.0 GHz common-source input transimpedance amplifiers are presented. The results are superior to those of similar recent designs and comparable to IC designs using GaAs technology. A detailed analysis of the design architecture is presented.

The Design Maintenance System™ (DMS™) is a research vision and a set of tools for semi-automated construction and maintenance of medium to large-scale software systems. Rather than reusing code, DMS is intended to apply program transformation technology, (re)use construction knowledge from multiple domains, and (re)use the design of the target software system. For the DMS vision to be successful in practice, not only must the related research problems be solved, but the related scale problems must also be solved. A considerable amount of domain knowledge must be acquired, and DMS must be able to handle large codes in multiple legacy languages. To obtain enough time and resources to handle such scale, DMS must be successful in a commercial sense. We walk a difficult line between Research and Product. The DMS vision is sketched, and the technology we have used to build a scalable, near-production foundation will be described. We mention some DMS applications.

- There is considerable pressure on academic and educational institutes to improve accessibility and quality of the learning environments. Many have found the Web-based technologies as part of the solution. In a Web-based learning environment learners, which are often physically separated from teachers, can participate in the learning environment at their convenient time and location. Most of the existing e-Learning systems are designed for content-based subjects that deliver course content such as text, images, video, audio, and simulation to the student through the Internet. In this paper, we introduce a model for providing experimental and lab-based lessons over the Internet. In our study, we present the lab-based experiments as reusable Learning Objects (LO).

In this paper, the classification of textured images was studied. A good classification relies on feature extraction stage. In this work, several texture samples were analyzed using wavelet transform which is a new and promising set of tools. It was shown that wavelet transform was appropriate for texture feature extraction. The performances of statistical properties of wavelet detail coefficients were compared in several classification experiments. And it was shown that, when used together the standard, median absolute and mean absolute deviations of horizontal, vertical and diagonal wavelet detail coefficients were appropriate wavelet signatures for achieving a successful texture classification with acceptable low error rates.

Past research in the field of cryptography has not given much consideration to arithmetic coding as a feasible encryption technique. Over the past few years, while arithmetic coding has still been the focus of a lot of intense research, studies have proven compression-specific arithmetic coding to be largely unsuitable for encryption. This is in spite of the large size of the model that arithmetic coding works with. Adaptive modelling, in particular, offers a huge model, variable in structure, and as completely as possible a function of the entire text that has been transmitted since the time the model was initialized. This serves as a huge key, which can make decryption arbitrarily difficult. But the scheme has been shown to be vulnerable to organized cryptanalysis. The focus of the work presented in this paper has been to incorporate the results of chaos theory into arithmetic coding, to device a convenient method to make the structure of the model unpredictable and variable in nature, and yet to retain, as far as is possible, statistical harmony, so that compression is possible. A chaos-based adaptive arithmetic coding-encryption technique has been designed, developed and tested and its implementation has been discussed. For typical text files, the

In this paper, the performance of hybrid Turbo codes over an optical PPM communication channel employing an avalanche photodiode (APD) detector is analyzed and simulated. Hybrid Turbo codes belong to a class of concatenated codes with the parallel concatenation of an interleaved convolutional code with a serially concatenated convolutional code. The simulations are carried out with Gaussian approximation model of APD output statistics. The results show that in less than six iterations, better bit-error rates (BER) can be obtained than reported in the literature corresponding to additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels. For example, for -90dBW of received laser power, all the bits are received correctly after the third iteration.

In this paper we propose the use of Turbo Codes for M-ary pulse position modulated pulses over UWB communication channels with multipath. The transmitted power of the UWB pulses is required to be very small as they are used in the existing spectrum designated to other uses. This constraint requires that UWB signals have good performance at low SNR’s. Turbo codes have been shown to perform well at low SNRs. We present the simulation results of using rate 1/2 and 1/3 turbo codes. Also, the effects of varying the symbols set size, the SNR of the channel and the interleaver size are presented. It has been shown in this paper that for a fixed SNR (4 dB), the rate 1/3 code shows an improvement of 2 orders of magnitude when M = 2 and 3 orders of magnitude when M = 4 or M = 8. For the same SNR, the rate 1/2 code shows an improvement of 1 to 2 orders of magnitude. To achieve a BER of 10-5, the rate 1/3 turbo code requires SNR = 6 dB when M = 4 and SNR = 3 dB when M = 8. Increase in the size of the interleaver from 29 to 214 results in a decrease in BER from 10-2 to 10-3 for SNR = 4 and M = 2.

We present a novel method for constructing trellis codes, based on recursive nonlinear equations. Using this method, trellis codes having good code rates (R = k/n) can be constructed. At the same time, the method allows the code-designer to construct a trellis with a large free distance, dfree, at the cost of a larger number of states in the trellis. It has been shown in this paper that for the code rate, R, less than a critical rate, Rc, the free distance can be made as large as desired for large n. This design methodology provides the freedom to play with the code performance and the code rate of the trellis code. Using this method, a rate 3/4 trellis code has been constructed with dfree = 12.

Our system offers course units covering the needs of users with different knowledge levels and personal characteristics. It tailors the presentation of the educational material to the users’ diverse needs by using AI techniques to specify each user’s model as well as to make pedagogical decisions, in An environment with linguistic or imprecise data. This is achieved via an expert system that uses a hybrid knowledge representation formalism integrating fuzzy rules with neurocomputing. The final model based on fuzzy neurons is more global and efficient, since it requires the least possible training effort, the number of the produced units is kept as small as possible, and it works in an environment of fuzzy as well as crisp data. According to our preliminary results the number of the students that were used the system and passed ITS’s tests is not significantly different from them that were participated the same course in our previous system or in the traditional classroom.

Abstract - The Emotional Learning Algorithm has been introduced to show the effect of emotions as well known stimuli in the quick and almost satisficing decision making in human. The remarkable properties of emotional learning, low computational complexity and fast training, and its simplicity in multi objective problems has made it a powerful methodology in real time control and decision systems, where the gradient based methods and evolutionary algorithms are hard to be used due to their high computational complexity. Recently the emotional approach has been successfully used to obtain multiple objectives in prediction problems of real world phenomena, more specifically space weather forecasting. A newer and more realistic model of emotional learning in human brain is used in this study to predict the most popular index of geomagnetic activity: Kp. The interplanetary Kp index is mainly used in warning and alert systems for satellites. The proposed model with brain emotional learning algorithm is introduced to make purposeful prediction of Kp index. Both the prediction accuracy during geomagnetic disturbances and substorms, and the rate of associated correct warning messages show the efficiency of this algorithm.

In this paper we deal with the problem of incoherent adaptive detection of range spread targets in the presence of Gaussian disturbance with structured covariance matrix, which, at the design stage, is modeled as an unknown parameter. To this end we assume that a secondary data set, free of useful target and with the same spectral properties of the cells under test, is available. We devise three receivers based on the Generalized Likelihood Ratio Test (GLRT) and assess their performance under different scenarios for both the target and the disturbance also in comparison with their counterparts designed under the hypothesis of unstructured Gaussian disturbance.

This paper presents an image retrieval method using a recursive matching scheme. In content-based image retrieval, a feature of an image cannot be perfectly extracted without inclusion of environmental noises like lighting and pose variation because of the imperfection of the extraction tools. Therefore, a feature extracted by a visual tool is the degraded version of the content information by environmental noise. To remove the effect by the environmental noise in image retrieval, we reuse the first-ranked retrieval image as an extra query image. The procedure are repeated within a fixed buffer of small size in a recursive way. Experimental results in the context of face retrieval show that the proposal method can improve image retrieval accuracy in the cost of the ignorable burden of the computational complexity

Techniques are proposed to support the video based development of systems for indoor exploration with mobile robots. The technique of redundant programming is often used to improve the reliability of operating systems, but the use of this technique is not common for CV (computer vision) applications. Also a new technique to create CAD (computer aided design) models from image data is described. These techniques were used for the development of an RV (robot vision) program. The observed recognition power exceeds the abilities of sophisticated but conventional programs clearly. This is documented with sample images.

Abstract: Zamin, is a general purpose artificial environment suitable for cognitive studies. This environment, which presents high-level agents in a rather complex environment, has been successfully used as a test bed for some AI researches, like cooperative learning. Although it still has some deficiencies, it has many useful features and in addition, it can be enhanced with some proposed features to cover more capabilities. We have prepare a survey on some recent researches in the area of Artificial Life to show the advantages of this environment in comparison with nowadays special purpose as well as general purpose simulated world test-beds. In addition we have tried to highlight its disadvantages that may be fixed by researchers that are interested in this subject. Source code and documentation of both versions of Zamin (with normal as well as fuzzy learners) are publicly available on the web.

Abstract- During landing, aircrafts have to face low-altitude wind shear that can be fatal. Most commercial aircrafts currently have optimal automatic landing systems, but they are activated only if well-specified wind speed limitations are met. The reason is that these autolanding systems are not designed to work in the presence of strong wind gusts. In this paper, we apply a modified version of brain emotional learning based intelligent controller (BELBIC) to the autolanding system whose multivariable and non-minimum phase nature make the task difficult. By comparing the results with the results derived from using a high-gain controller, we show that our proposed solution can achieve robust and satisfactory performance.

If some remaining problems like excessive torque ripple could be resolved through intelligent control, it would enjoy enormous comparative advantages for grabbing significant market share. In this paper we report the utilization of a novel controller, BELBIC, based on emotion processing mechanism in brain. Our results show superior control characteristics especially very fast response, simple implementation and robustness with respect to disturbances and manufacturing imperfections. Our proposed method enables the designer to shape the response in accordance with multiple objectives.

The control system consists of a neurofuzzy controller whose weights are adapted according to emotional signals provided by blocks called emotional critics. Each critic is assigned to assess the situation of its corresponding control objective. Simulation results are provided for the control of different dynamical systems in order to clarify the matter further.

With the increasing emphasis on the emerging automatic personal identification applications, Personal Identification based on Biometric Features especially fingerprint based Identification is receiving a lot of attention. Fingerprint is one of the most vital and unique Biometric Features and provides a degree of reliability, repeatability and ease in use not found in other biometric features like voice, face thermogram, handwriting patterns etc. Most fingerprint based Personal Identification systems use Minutiae based matching to calculate the similarity between two given prints. Several image enhancement algorithms need to be applied to fingerprints scanned from commercially available scanners before extraction of the features from these images. In this paper we investigate the results of a few conventional image enhancement algorithms and present a new approach to image enhancement which includes variance-cum-mean based segmentation and local mean based image binarisation. The verification accuracy with the new approach was found improved and quite acceptable for low and medium cost applications.

Abstract: Reinforcement learning algorithm has been successfully used in prediction and decision making [5,11]. The main contribution of this paper is to provide decision making using reinforcement learning approach to allocate resources optimally in stochastic conditions in a well known example; in the portfolio selection. The modern theories of portfolio selection consider some presumptions. But if they don’t hold, these methods are no longer efficient. So these days, some papers have been written by using the artificial intelligent methods. In this paper, appropriate emotional reinforcement signal is composed for portfolio selection. For this purpose, the reward signal is taken as the output of a linguistic fuzzy inference system with the return of portfolio and the risk of portfolio as inputs, then we implement the Q-learning neural network and we train this network with the proposed reward signal.

Motivation: Over the last decade, a vast amount of new genomic data has become available, and all of these sequences need to be annotated. Conventional annotation techniques are based on comparison of the new sequences with reference sets or genomic data from evolutionary close species. This rather narrow spectrum of techniques is in dire need of complimentary approaches to make genome annotation more reliable. Here, we present a computational Bayesian approach that allows detection of the genomic regions which are the most likely to contain coding or regulatory sequences. Results: We present a computational statistical, content-based approach to the genome wide search for coding and regulatory regions in the eukaryotic DNA. Our method performs an unsupervised search, without using reference sets or cross genome comparison. Although in this study we have restricted our analyses to the sea urchin Otx, and the mouse HoxD genes, we are confident that the technique is widely applicable. The outcome of these preliminary investigations revealed the potential of our approach as a powerful DNA sequence characterization and annotation tool. What distinguishes our approach from the others in this area: (i) Few, if any, attempts have been made to

In this paper we introduce a fast, robust, accurate eye localization algorithm. Detecting and normalizing human faces from live video streams is the first crucial step in a face verification/recognition system. The accuracy and robustness affect the performance of the following face registration and classification. To localize face regions properly, we detect eye corners by using a corner detector and Gabor wavelets. First, by applying a corner detector in skin color regions, we dramatically reduce the candidate regions for eye corners. Extracted features are represented in a semilocal manner to increase discrimination. Then, in the set of the reduced candidates, a robust feature decision algorithm based on Gabor response analysis gives accurate eye corner locations. Experimental results on real images are presented.

Knowledge compilation deals with the computational intractability of reasoning problems. To overcome this difficulty we provide three different compilation approaches to a first order knowledge base. The knowledge base $\Sigma$ is preprocessed by unit resolution into an approximate knowledge base CKB($\Sigma$) from which a subset of possible queries can be answered by unit refutation. The number of clauses obtained by each of the three methods is less than the number of clauses in the prime implicate set.

One of the factors contributing to the rapid growth of e-Learning has been the rapid development of the World Wide Web relative ubiquity of standard Web-browsers. However, we argue in this paper that the standard Web-browser is reaching its limits as the de facto client for e-Learning. The standard Web-browser-central server combination in many circumstances does not deal well with factors such a performance, security, privacy, and learner-centered control. We outline an alternative framework to support the evolution of agent-based multimedia e-Learning.

In this paper, the locomotion of an autonomously navigated undersea vehicle that uses vorticity control propulsion is computationally simulated. The navigation procedure employs a set of vehicle geometric and state variables to predict the needed vehicle body deformations in order to pass through a set of predefined path-points. To simulate the movement of the vehicle, a two-dimensional unsteady potential flow solver was developed based on the unsteady panel method coupled with the vehicle dynamics. The developed flow solver was validated against published computational results of unsteady flow standard test cases. Then, another set of properly planned test cases to cover the range of possible conditions were processed with the simulation and the output data was subsequently used to train a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) neural network. The trained network can predict what body deflection time history is necessary for the vehicle to pass through the given path-points. Several autonomous navigation test cases are presented to show the capabilities of the present method.

The dynamic relation between trading volume and stock volatility: evidence for the G7.The goal of the paper is to reveal some new facts about financial time series. It is generally accepted that financial time series are not following the Brownian random walk process, but rather (multi-)fractional Brownian motion i.e. the fluctuations of financial time series tend to have a memory. While the (multi)fractal description is adequate for the analysis of long-term dynamics, certain aspects of the variability of prices has been left out of focus. In this paper the long-term correlations in short-term variability are studied. The trading data are divided into two categories: “large variability” and “small variability”. These definitions are based on the relative difference between the current price and the periods’ sliding average, using a (adjustable) threshold value T. The sequential “low” volatility trading days make up a “silent” period; the “silent” periods are “ranked” according to their length (measured in the number of trading days N). The rank R of a “silent” period equals to the number of “silent” periods longer than N. The relationship between the rank R and N was studied for various financial data. The analysis was conducted using different threshold values T ranging from 0.25% to 3.00%. The time
